Says the committee report: "To
pass the bill in its present form would
be a mistake. While the public might
be benefited to a certain extent. their
interests would not be sufficiently
protected. II would be unwise to re-

therefore recommend the following
amendments: Strike out the words 'at
the request of the Honolulu Rapid

Sec. Si2 of the II. l.. II. Is hereby
amended by adding the following:
Provided, however, that with the ap.
proval OF the Governor, the Superin.

proval, may authorize a rate of speed

not within the limits, described in par.
agraph two. and within the limits OF
paragraph two may authorize speed
not exceeding twelve miles an hour

such authorization: and provided thai
for any violations of such speed limit
