PROM07IONIS7S
RECEIVE Letters
Major WinSIOw And ". O.
Smith Reply To Sand
Removal

The business OF the Promotion
Committees meeting yesterday aft
ernoon consisted chiefly in discuss
ing letters received from various
sources. After the minutes OF the
previous meeting had been read by
Acting Secretary Cooper, w. n.
Hogs moved, and Norman Watkins
seconded, that X. II. Trent be APP
Jinted committee OF one to de-
eide as to who Is entitled to the re-
ward Of $25 which the Promotion
Committee has offered for the best
catch-phrase suggested by DR.. Sc
reno L. Bis lUp's Paradise OF the
Pacific" aud TO which a great many
people have submitted phrases.
At the previous meeting OF the
Promotion Committee, Messrs. Mar
ston Campbell, Alexander Young and
c. Macfarlane gave their opinions
In regard 20 the removal of coral at
Waikiki Beach, and pointed out the
damage that was being caused by
persons removing sand from this re-
sort, to the detriment OF the beach,
and to- the bathing in particular.
Mr.. Campbell suggested that let
ter be written to Major Winslow
and also to w. o. Smith, treasurer
Of the Liliuokalani Trust, In refer
ence to this matter. The replies to
these letters were read before the
members OF the Promotion Commit
tee yesterday.
Mai Winslow's reply was lengthy
and contained Ave reasons which
proved that the coral at Waikiki was
exposed before the dredger opera
lions began. Mai. Winslow stated
that the removal .of material by the
dredge did not begin until the last
day of December. During the
months of November and December
the dredge did. indeed. do some
work. but 1t was merely cutting
channel for itself by removing ma
terial from In front OF its bow and
depositing same at It's stern.
The erosion Of the beach In front
of the Moana and Seaside hotels was
noticeable In the early part OF the
summer OF last year, and has con-
tinued since. This was long before
the dredge began to work The nor
NAL littoral current in front of Wal
kiki Beach is from east to west, the
movement of material being usually
In that direction. Consequently. any
effect upon the beach due to the

dredge could be shown only on the
beach to the west OF the location oil
the dredging. The site of the ero-
sion is half-mile eastward from
the dredging, and between the two
Is a long section Of beach which has
been growing Instead Of being cut
away.
Eor the above reasons, ] think II
Is clear that the damage to the hotel
beaches, which | deplore az much as
anyone else. has not been caused. di-
rectly or Indirectly, by the removal
of material to All the mosquito-laden
ponds In rear OF the army post.
As Is well known, all sea beaches
are subject to fluctuations, cutting
away at one time and place, and FILL
Ing up at another time and place,
and IL Is frequently very difficult to
determine the cause OF the cutting
away OF any one part OF the beach
at any particular time.
The work now going on at Wal
| XXI Is under contract, and can
not be stopped until the completion
OF the contract, which still has a
Few months to run. However, II Is
my opinion that after the compile
ton OF the present contract II Is i'm
probable that another attempt viii
be made to obtain material from the
ocean, ON account OF the expense of
70 doing.
Mr.. Mclean. chairman OF the Pro-
motion Committee, thought that
Major Winslow had made mistake
In jumping at the conclusion that
the Promotion Committee thought
the dredger was responsible for the
beach being ruined, whereas no such
Implication had been made. Mr..
Bush thought that Major Winslow's
letter was most courteous and tnat
although II was not exactly the re-
ply that the Promotion Committee
had expected, yet he thought that II
should be acknowledged with due
thanks and that second letter be
written to Major Winslow asking II
the government could not haul Its
sand for construction work from
some other spot than Waikiki Beach.
The reply from w. o. Smith,
treasurer OF the Liliuokalani Trust,
was then read, Mr.. Smith stated
That shortly after the trustees of
this estate had been appointed In
December last, Instructions were
given TO forbid the removal OF any

Refuses 10 be Drawn into Con-

WASHINGTON. April ls.--Presi-
dent Taft today lodged another at
tempt TO bring him out on the
women's suffrage question. when he
appeared 10 make the welcoming all
dress 10 the ID. A. r, in their nine
tcenth continental congress. Presi
dentGeneral. Mrs. Mathew 7. Scott.
introduced the president by saying:
III has been rumored that the presl-
dent is not in favor of womans SUI
frage II this is true he is not con-
sulting his own interests for there are
millions OF women in the country who
admire him and who would vote for
MIN il they had the opportunity"
President Taft quickly sidestepped
and said.
Il confess that when came into
this hall | did not expect To have pre-
scented to me matters of controversy
thought that what had brought us
together today we are all agreed upon,
and | am going TO continue TO assume
that is the case without discussing the
power and place for women which
possibly should be so high that 1t
should not be discussed at all"
little later in his speech he inter
rupted himself to interpolate the
words "he or she Is citizen" This
was greeted with applause and the
president added
The law recognized that the ex-
o. es3ion he should include she On
this occasion she includes he and
am perfectly willing 10 accept. that
because that is the way IL is Ia my
own family"
His speech was mainly devoted TO
the discussion Of patriotism and the
benefit to be derived from the work
of The ID. A r.
