House Bill 175, Coney, which trans
fers to the counties the power to make
and enforce ordinances covering all
local police matters and all matters OF
sanitation, inspection of buildings
plumbing, sewers, diaries, milk, GENE,
teries, burying grounds, interment OF
the dead and morgue, was up on third
reading. This is the bill drafted to
turn all matters of health over to the
counties, amended in Difference to the
storm of protest which followed
prompt on the heels of the announced
policy.
House Bill 176 is the same measure
as applying to the City and County OF
Honolulu.
Shingle raised a question on this bill
regarding the power of the county to
appoint and pay government physi
clans, now that it had been decided t.
retain this power in the Territory.
Rice said the idea was to have it Sc
that the counties could legally also
pay the physicians. The Territorial
pay of $25 month was not enough.
Kaleiopu said that he failed to see
how one man could draw Territorial
and county money too, forgetting pos
sibly that he, while a member of the
Legislature, has been drawing county
money for two years past.
Castro moved to make it possible for
the city and county to employ and pay
"city and county" physicians instead
Of "government" physicians.
Single wanted the House to be sen
sible and to defer until Monday, by
which time the House could be proper
ly informed on the matter. So far
the vetoes of the Governor had been
according to President Smith of the
Senate, all on House bills through
faulty construction.
President Smith may have said
that" said Rice, "but, as matter
of fact, most of the vetoes have come
as result of the amendments made
to House bills in the Senate. If they
would leave our bills alone there would
be fewer vetOes."
"And / would like to add" said
Sheldon, referring to President Smith
"that many of those veto-inviting
amendments came from that honorable
gentleman himself. -
Both bills were deferred until Mon.
day.
