MR.. PATTERSON ON Mr..
SCHUYLER'S REPORT

Editor Advertiser: I wish to say just
one more word in closing remarks on
my side Of the Nuuanu dam question.
AS far as the safety of Mr.. Kellogg s
plans are concerned. 1 deem them per-
fectly safe, because Mr.. Kelloggs chan,
ges have made it an entirely different
structure from the Walker plans. I
have always had the utmost confidence
in Mr.. Kellogg and see no reason I
should not have the same in Mr. Schuy-
| ler If you will turn to Mr. Kellogg'a
report and note his closing remarks.
speaking of the cost, he says: This
may seem expensive but / deem it
necessary to secure a safe and perma-
nent dam which is the paramount ques-
ton above all others, especially in a
location Ike this where the lives and
property Of those living below the dam
would be jeopardized.'
The only attack 1 have made at all
was in the way the dam was being
built by incompetent supervision and
the specificat .ons were insufficient to
secure a good one.
In looking at it today we see a lack
of knowledge in the cost of the dam
the first estimate being $4,000. We
understand there has been $125,000 al, |
ready expended and Mr.. Schuyler in
forms us that it will take $160,S6 more |
to complete the dam. According to |
his figures the dam VII cost $685., 500 |
when completed. To be sure the ex-
pense is not the point but the safety
of the dam. If these men that are
not able to tell the cost of a dam like
this and cannot build a core wall strong /
enough to hold a twelve foot pressure, Il
located in little spring branch, or
build an inner toe and take care of the
water while building it, so as to pre-
vent the embankment from washing
down against the core wall at every
little shower. If these men cannot
10 these minor details, L have no faith
N their completing the structure in a
manner. If It will cost
100, 865 to complete the dam, how could
Mr.. Carter expect to do the same for
rs, 900, which he asks as an appropria-
ion? OF course our Honorable body
# legislators will see all the points.
I'M sure the citizens do.
Mr. Schuyler speaks of building dams | /
without specifications and details, and l
nay the Lord hasten the day when
men will be honest enough to do so;
ut at the present time I would advise
pecifications and plans of the most
igid type to be used in these Islands.
speak from experience. Hoping the
legislature will be able to arrange in
ONE way to have a safe and perna-
ent structure of the Nuuanu dam, I III

Yours respectfully,

a New Ruling.

A new ruling has been made by the
postofiice department which affects
those post cards which are placed in
side transparent or other envelopes,
which reads as follows
Postage stamp affixed 10 post cards
which are enclosed in envelopes with
an opening in the front opposite when
the stamp appear are not to be re-
eognized in payment Of postage on sucn
articles. Stamps affixed In this man
ner are therefore not 10 be- cancelled
and unless the proper postage is paid
by stamps attached 10 the envelopes or

the postmasters, and annoyance TO the

to pay double the regular rate. Cards
