146, relating to a fire department tor
Wailuku and kahului, have to report
that the object of the bill us passed
by the House is to properly organize
IA fire department for Waiuku alI Ka-
hului, which towns now have volun-
teer fire companies.
"Your committee find that there is a
volunteer fire company ut Lahaina
Maui, and we therefore recommend
that such amendments be made to thi,
bill as will allow other towns in the

amendments, we recommend it pass.
