Troops would have been sent to la

Chillingworth xiG that the cause OF

payment should he made for this affair,
payment should also be made for tho
amounts expended by the Oahu Plan

| employees started riots the Territory
was not called upOn to reimburse.

But not to suppress innocent per-
sons and help the strong" answered

! l.EPER SUSPECT BILL.
! House Bill "a, the Ieper suspect bill
which provides for a hospital at Kalihl
| ut which suspects can be treated by
| physicians chosen by the Board or by
| themselves, came up for third reading
Smith moved 10 strike out the sec
7 ton which provided for the Kalihi hos
| pitGl. lie argued that the suspects
would have a much better chance at
! the settlement than in such an insti-
/ tuition. Furthermore, the privision that
| friends aud relatives should be al
lowed 10 visit them was wrong. They
did not show discretion, there was
great danger Of contagion. and such
meeting only produced grief. The bill
, provided that the suspects must be
kept AT Kalihi until they were incur
able, This was not right to the COM
munlty, and the lepers themselves were
better OF in the beautiful county oil
kalaupnpa and Kalawao than in pent-
up barracks al Kalihi. In such con-
lincment the danger Of contagion was
much greater than AT the settlement.

bill so thai suspects would stay at the
hospital for term not 10 exceed six
months. Adopted.

c!pient stage he kept at the Kalihi hos
pitul. AdOntCd
with there amendments the bill
passed third reading, only Smith and
Bishop voting against il.
