sum of $4,000 for the purposes enrmer-

COMPROMISE REPORT.
Senator Knudsen from the conference
having in charge the bill
for change of time of meet
ings of Supervisors in the diffc, emit
reported as follows:
"The bill was introduced by the SEN
ators from Maui and its main object
is to amend Section &C of Act 80.
Section 66 of Act 80 requires that the
meetings of the Board of Supervisors
shall be held on the first Tuesday of
each month. On Maui, this c,pses a
great hardship as it is impossible for
The people living on the islands of
Kauai and Molokai to get their ac-
counts in by that time on account of
he poor travelling accom- odations.
"In order to remedy that trouble,
he Senate passed the bill amending
section &C so as to change the day of
Meeting to the first Wednesday after |
he fifth day of each month. This
vas further amended by the House to
he first Wednesday after the first Mon
lay in each month. AS the amendment
recommended by the House is more
cceptable to all of the corn;ies with
he exception of Maui ccrcty, your
ommitteef recommends hat the SEN
tie yield to the House in its amend
tent as far as the counties of Hawaii,
'ahu and Kauai are G, 'cerned, and
hat the Horae yield to the Serate in
IS amendment as far as the County
{ Maui is concerned. The section as
greed upon will then read as follows:
Section Sc. The Board shall hold
OCULAR meetings for the transaction of
ublic business beginning on the first
Wednesday, of each month, except in
ne County of Maui where the meet
lgs shall be held on the first We'd
esday after the fifth dPy of each
onth, and continue in sessio, for as
ANY days as the transaction OF such
lsiness may require, and it shall call
lch special meetings as may be neces-
Try for the public welfare"
