"There can be natural and profit

,ern California and the Hawaiian ISL
ands. Our people crave the seni-tropi-
cal fruits such as pineapple, bananas
alligator pears, etc, while our oranges
grapes, peaches, walnuts, almonds, etc,
would find large market there. 1t
would also be an advantage of both
sections to send the crude sugar to Los
Angeles.
MY thory is that the tourists in
Hawaii are mainly of a type who are
travelling around the world and merely
stop over for a while. But Los An
geles gets so per cent of the tourist
travel to the Pacific coast. There is
every reason, with the facilities Los
Angeles will have in the future for
handling tourist travel, that Hawaii
should benefit largely ny direct stem

Everybody seems in earnest for the
establishment of such line, believe,
in pointing out to tourists the at
fractions of the islant 1t would seem
desirable to attract them through
Southern California agencies.

prospects are that his coming here will

The site for the building is to be on the

Plans and specifications for the strue-
ture were completed yesterday by the
architects Hunt & Eager, and Monday
the board of public works will recon-

1t Is the ambition of the playground

meetings of the elders may be held at
any time. where branch library may
be established and where the board
of education may conduct a summer

Eastern cities have found the inno-

may include club houses as features.
The Violet street club house will be
a frame bungalow twenty-six feet by
fifty-two feet, conveniently arranged

room, twenty-four feet by twenty-six
feet, and an adjacent room thirteen

thrown into it when required, A fea-

fireplace. In addition there is to be

feet and two store rooms.

wide. litter the fashion of Swiss cot

furnished comfortably and cozily.

tract will be let and the work of con-
struction started so'that by February

MAYOR OPPOSES
LIGHT ORDINANCE
OBJECTS TO CITY PAYING HALF
THE COST
Says He Believes Property Owners
Should Bear Entire Expense Of
Ornamental System on 5usl-
ness Streets

Mayor McAleer, in all probability,
will use his veto power in disposlng of
the ordinance passed Monday by the
council, providing for an assessment
district to defray the expense of the
Spring street lighting system. Tho
ordinance is well appearing on its face,
but IL it is passed it will be followed
In a few weeks by another which will
provide for the city's paying half Of the
cost of lighting for tho next year. This
is u stickler with Mayor McAleer
The city's chief executive, from the
time 1t was proposed, has fought the
street illumination plan, as one in
which the municipality should have no
part He says he believes that the
property owners and not the city
should defray the expense. He smiled
yesterday when the ordinance was
brought to him for his signature.
II guess 1 will just think this over
while he said, as he placed the doc
ument In his desk. This looks too
good to be true, but have a different
understanding of the question:
City to Pay Half
The contract for the Spring street
lighting will be let the first of the year.
Before the board of public works sent
its recommendation to the council as
to the creation of an assessment dis
trict it had an understanding with the
property owners by which it was
agreed that the city should pay half
1t is doubtful whether the latter would
wish the present plan pursued unless
the city we're willing to come in on the
expense.
This time the council and the board
of public works stand as opposed to
H. q. IL -
parent to outsiders, it has been the
mayor and the board opposed to the
council. The city's legislature stands
on the platform of light, lots of it
everywhere. excepting the council
chamber. Councilman Kern excepted,
the council has always shown a readi-
ness to light a thoroughfare free for
one year if the Interested property
owners erect the system. Spring street
will soon have operated it's system for
one year at the city's expense and now
there promises to be difficulty as to
the Encouragement of the financial bur-
den.
Objects to Stable Law
1t is probable that along with the
Spring street lighting ordinance the
council will be forced to pass the
stockyard5 ordinance over Mayor Nc
Aleers veto. This document has also
been refused the signature of the
mayor until he has had thine to con-
duct an investigation. The mayor and
his friends have been desirous that the
southern limits of the district should
be made to extend as far south as
Sixteenth street. The councils ha
placed them $50 feet south of First
street. This, believes the mayor, is do
ing an injustice to the interests Of u
number of large property owners.

ESTABLISH NEW
STEAMSHIP LINE
HONOLULU AND LOS ANGELES
BACK ENTERPRISE
Committee Representing the Junket-
ing Editorial Association Meets
With Directors of Chamber
of Commerce

To tablish a direct and extensive
steamship line between Honolulu and
Los Angeles is an achievement which
may be attained in the i4ear future.
A committee of three, representing
the Southern California Editorial asso-
citation who went to the Hawaiian ISL
ands, appeared before the board of
directors of the chamber of commerce
at regular meeting yesterday after
noon and explained the business in
terest between the Hawaiian islands
and Los Angeles.
The committee consisted Of Warren
Wilson, editor of the Los Angeles Daily
Journal; B. q. Holt, editor of the Santa
Monica Outlook, and l.. J. Doolittle of
The Los Angeles Herald, who We're the
srokesmen of the forty-eight good and
true" newspaper men of Southern Cali
fornla, who recently returned from a
jUnketing trip to the Hawaiian islands.
The members of the committee were
enthusiastic in their representation be-
fore the board of the great advantages
to be derived from the establishment of
direct and extensive steamship line
between the two isles of the Pacific
and the southland The business prob
lens We're reviewed calling attention
to the earnestness of the Hawaiian peo-
pie to unite their steamship interests
with those of Los Angeles, having be-
come in touch with Portland, Ore, And
in the promotion of this enterprise H.
p. Wood, secretary OF the Hawaiian
promotion committee, will be here in a
few DAYS. Mr.. Wood has been sent by
the islanders to establish extensive
headquarters and an agency TO facili-
tate the plans of establishing a new
steamship line between Honolulu and
San Pedro.
HaWaiians Are in Earnest
Warren Wilson, one of the members
of the committee, in an interview after
the meeting yesterday, said:
"Our SO, 100000 harbor at San Pedro
and its wonderful cities and towns and
country extending to the mountains,
all are certainly conducive to promul-
gate a direct steamship line to Homo
lulu to establish the commercial in
terests that would be wonderful In its
Inception and continual expansion. The
Hawaiian business people are much In
earnest i'm this affair, and II would be
the first direct steamship line opening
from this southern country.
Since the San Francisco disaster the
ocean transportation has been much
handicapped.
Los Angeles and surrounding coun-
try are so rapidly increasing In busi-
ness development that the people arc
after commercial expansion. The Sau
Pedro breakwater and harbor are not
being built for nothing. They are be-
ing built for the purpose of making Los
Angeles a city for seaport Importance
and a vast outlet to the orient. The
chamber of commerce is doing a great
work in the extension of trade to the
orient. and with all the combined ef-
forts between here and the Hawaiian
