ing to adopt the report of the com
mittee, and all of the pages of amend
ments, holus-Dolus, but Senator Smith
said the bill was too important for
any such action. Senator Chillingworth,
seconded by Senator Dowsett, moved
that the Senate go into night sessions
during the week but before vote
was taken Senator Smith asked that &C.
ton be deferred ON the motion until
Monday when the Senators would know
just what amount of work would be
left for action.
Senate Bill No. rs passed third read
ing unanimously as did House Bill No.
Al, which will give the outside papers
a chance at the publication of the legis-
lative enactments. House Bill so also
passed third reading but when No. 81
was called motion was made to defer

The Zone man one job bill was
up and Senator Smith moved that it
be amended so that one person should
draw but one salary from the Govern
ment. The amendment was accepted
and the bill passed thirteen to one.
House Bill 1872, relating to the fees
of jurors at coroner's inquests passed
third reading and Senate Bill No. 10,
relating to pounds, passed second read
ing by the adoption of the committee s
report published on Saturday.
Senate Bill 10, relating to married
women being employed as teachers in
the public schools, was called and Sen
ator Smith moved, seconded by Sen
ator Knudsen, an amendment that would
have wiped out the kernel to the meas
sure and the teachers would have not
been interfered with. The Senator re-
marked that such law might work
hardship but as it happens that the
husbands of the married teachers in
the Honolulu schools are all doing well
the statement had no effect upon the
champion of the single girls rights.
He SAID it was the duty of married
women to stay at home and look after
the household cares and bring up their
children properly instead of neglecting
them by leaving them to the care of
Oriental servants or allowing them to
run wild. The fact that these ladies
are willing to teach causes discrimina-
ton on the part of the Superintendent
of Public Instruction and the younger
and just as capable teachers are sent
out in the country. When Hawaiian
girls get married they give up teach
ing and look after their homes as
rule.
Senator Smith moved to amend the

also objected to, Senator Coelho remark
ing that it might be temptation for
a man to tell his wife to get out and
hustle and support herself.
Senator Lane moved to defer action
until Monday.
Senator Mccarthy claimed his turn
to be a changed man. He said he had
signed the committee report but some
thing had cropped up to cause him to
wish for more time and he asked that
the bill be recommitted. This motion
was lost and Senator Lanes motion
to defer carried.
House Bill No. 149 was referred to
the Educational committee. Senate
Bill No. rs, called for third reading.
This is the bill which provides for
'legitimating children and was again
deferred.
THE TRUST BILL.
Senator Makekau 8 bill dealing with
trusts had opposition from several mem
bers, notably Smith who contended that
as there is federal law ON such mat
ters the Territory had better keep
hands off. His motion to table was
