Lanai Land Case Goes
Over for Four
Days.

When the injunction suit of L. L..
| McCandless against George r. Carter,
Governor, and ]. ". Pratt. Commits
| sioner of Public Lands, came before
Judge De Bolt yesterday on motion of
the Attorney General to dissolve it,
George D. Gear for plaintiff wanted the
hearing continued until January 5.
| Attorney General Peters strongly OPP
posed the request, saying the temper
airy injunction should be argued at
once. 1t was obstructing a matter of
executive policy, the Lanai lands ex-
change proposal, and meantime valu-
| able options were expiring. An in
! junction suit required a speedy deter
mination as much as case of habeas
corpus.
Judge De Bolt granted a continuance
until Friday morning next. Upon a
ton, the Judge said he had reluctant
| ly agreed with the other judges to
defer trials for Christmas week, but
he should never again be party TO
such an arrangement. Court vacations
bred trouble and he had a constitu-
tional aversion to vacations.
