''The minority of your special com
mittee named to consider House Bill
l22, being an Act TO amend Section
80 of Act lis of the Session Laws of
1907 introduced by Representative
Ruel Kinney, begs leave to report as
follows:
"We do not concur in the findings of
the majority of this special committee
in favor of the passage of this bill at
this time. We do not believe that the
time has come when amendments in.
creasing the salaries of the several Off
GERS of the municipality of the City and
County of Honolulu should be consider
ed. The Municipal Act has been in ac-
tive force less three months and there
has been no showing made to justify
any claim that the salaries provided un-
der that act for Supervisors and other
officials are insufficient. In addition,
your minority cannot Justify itself in
