Judiciary Committee Severe.


The judiciary Committee reported on
five bills, recommending one for pas
sage, three for the table and advising
the introducer of the fifth to petition
the Governor and not bother the House
with the wants of Kawaihae regarding
a polling booth.
The one bill which passed the seru-
tinizing eye of the legal lights in safe
ty is an old friend in the Legislature,
being one presented by Moanauli to
prevent anyone from drawing pay for
two separate jobs in either the Terri
tory, county or municipality. This bill
was recommended for passage.
Kinney's grotesque request that a
bill be drafted "to prohibit the habit
of selling fish and meat openly in the

ommendation that it be put to slumbei

House ALREADY awaits it. To the table
it went.
The report on Makekau' s House Bill

A Vigorous Report.
The report on another bill of Make
kau s, one to have a radical change
in the assessment law, was, in part:
"The object of this bill is to con
stitute district magistrates and deputies
sheriff of each taxation district togeth
er with some other disinterested person
a board of equalization to pass upor
and determine tax assessments as levied
by the tax assessors of the various tax
alton districts. In the opinion of your
committee if the present bill became
law it would unquestionably give the
district magistrates and deputies sheriff
vast power, for they could fix the
amount of assessments irrespective OF
the valuations fixed by the tax assessor:
and in many instances it might be that
these officers would not be competent
to pass upon matters which involve oul
public revenue. Your committee is fur
Their of the opinion that such power
/ should not be conferred upon district
magistrates and deputies sheriff; and
therefore recommend that the bill BIZ

DELEGATES GIVE REPORT.

At the college chapel Sunday after
noon nearly 200 college students and
t~ownspeople gathered to- hear the re-
port of the college men who went to
the summer conference at Cascade,
Colorado, last June. Music for the DC.
casion was furnished by Ch%ristenson's
orchestra.
The subject assigned to Roy Quinn
II was "Trip by Rail" Mr.. Quinn
gave a good description of the trip to
Cascade and told of the cog road trip
up Pixies Peak, where at an elevation
of $4,000 feet they viewed the clouds
below them and spent a short time in
a region covered by rocks and snow.
A trip up the Moffatt road near Den
yer vas also described.
Ralph Crothers, 10, told of trips ION
Burro and Foot" He gave an account
of the five mile tramps to Manitou and
back, of the laughable incidents con-
nected with hitting the trail and the
delights of burro riding. Picturesque
e of canyons, water falls and pine
clad peaks were we'll portrayed.
Words, he said were inadequate to con-
vey an idea of what the conference
meant to all, in more ways than one.
To Andrew Palm 10 had been given
the topic Stunts at Cascade" Mr..
Palm told of stunt night and how the
various delegations each put ON a
novel and unique feature in the way
of side splitting diversions. South Da.
kota's delegation brought greetings in
sixteen different languages. Colorado
put on a hypnotic show and every state
represented did itself proud. The hu.
morous features were all described in
detail by the speaker and wildly por
trayed.
Dick Fridley II told Of Athletics al
Cascade" Every afternoon vas given
over to recreation and athletic sports
Considering the fact that South Da,
kota had only 80 men at the confer
ence. while SOM states had more than
one hundred our state won IL IA
points in the meet. Clifford Johnson
winning the hammer throw. A bal
game between Colorado and South Da
kota was won by the former state by
a o Of 5 to 2.

egation." said Mr.. Johnson in opening

his talk. He told of the friendly ri
valry III athletic contests between the
delegations, the inspiration of the fell
lows they met, the inspiration of the
mountains, of the speakers and of all
the meetings.
Friendship and Fellowship" was
discussed by Vollmer Finley II. he
stated that this was an important part
of the convention. The strongest men
from many colleges were mingled to-
gether as one great body for a CON-
mon purpose, to get the most they could
from the convention.
Henry Erdmann ~ told of the
speakers, among whom were DR.. Muir
ray, Dad" Elliot and Bishop Mellow
ell. He described a typical day at the
conference, Of the life work meetings
and what they meant to the fellows.
AS a representative Of the faculty,
DR.. Rodeheaver was one of the dele
gates and at Sundays meeting spoke
on the subject "The General Aspect of
the Conference" THE keynote of the
conference might well be summed up
In these words he said, equipment
for life" The emphasis of the con
ference was placed on the duty of a
person to the people about him. The
report was well given by each of the
delegates and was much enjoyed by
the audience.
On account of the Thanksgiving va
cation there will be no Y. NJ C. A.
meeting until Dec. 5.
