motion Committee in session this af-
ternoon Secretary H. P. Wood pre-
sented the following report.
Honolulu, Nov. 18th, 1910.
Chairman and members of the Hawaii
Promotion Committee.
Dear Sirs:-The influx of home
seekers is commencing somewhat
early this year. The different Trust
Companies and Real estate Agents
state that there is an urgent demand
for modern furnished and unfurnish-'
ed cottages. Following the holiday,
the arrival will increase rapidly, the
prospect favoring the largest number
of visitors to Hawaii during next
! February March and April that we
have seen.
A Californian who was here last
winter and is familiar with the Sum-
mer Tent Cities at Santa Cruz and
Coronado, writes that just as soon as
he is able to close out his interests
Oh the Coast, he is coming to make
his home in Hawaii and if some one
else has not already undertaken the
project, plans to start a Tent City
somewhere along the Coast of Oahu,
believing that conditions are ideal for
such an undertaking here.
More will be done this winter also
to provide entertainment, not only for
the strangers who may be here, but
also for our own people as well. If
Mr.. w. D. Adams plan to secure a
good strong operate Company for a
six weeks or two months engagement
meets with the encouragement hoped
for we may expect a great treat.
Tourist Agencies at Davenport,
Iowa. Grands Forks, N. D.; Kalama-
zoo, Mich; and Kansas City, Mo-;
write thanking the Committee for
folders sent and state that they feel
hopeful of doing a good business to
Hawaii this winter.
We are also in receipt of a letter
from Mr. S. A. Hutchinson, Manager
OF the Tours Department of the Chi
cago, Union Pacific and North West
ern Lines at Chicago, stating that he
has already more than twenty people
booked for his next trip to Hawaii.
y King and Ullberg, managing Agents
of the North Pacific Coast Commercial
Excursion, write under date of Nov.
End, as follows:
I'VE wish to extend our thanks and
kind appreciation for the prompt man
ner in which you have handled all
our requests in relation to the North
Pacific Coast Commercial Excursion.
Most all have sent in replies, and in
so far as our detailed arrangements
are concerned on our arrival on your
shores, we consider the matter practi-
cally closed, and satisfactory.
1--WE hand you another copy of our
pamphlet which we hope meets with
your approval and that the programme
shown herein is in accordance with
your plans.
The change in the title of the eX-
cursion in fully explained to you in
previous letter and we are now
feeling the influence of this change.
There is no reason to believe but that
we will have one of the incest eXcur-
sions that ever touched at Honolulu"
The following letters give some idea
of the wide publicity the Managers of
the Excursion are giving to the en-
terprise.

Dear Sirs:-Replying to yours of
the 25th ulto in which you make the
announcement of the Grand Trunk
Pacific Coast Steamship Company ex-
cursion to Honolulu which leaves
Seattle Feb. 2, 1911, beg to state that
upon your communication being read
to the Board of Directors of the Com
I mercial Club, it was the unanimous
opinion of that body that an excursion
. of the kind would ;be a great benefit
to the Pacific Coast. To that end we
fully approve Of the undertaking in
order that our business people in this
part of the country may have the OPP
7 portunity of carrying to the people of
the Islands such information as will
lead them to be interested in such
things as we may have and which
they may want.
It will also assist our people to
learn what the productions of the
Islands are in a more satisfactory
manner so that the exchange of trade
between us can have a more healthy
growth.

dertaking, ! beg to remain.
