THIRTY. SIXTH DAY.

The school bill drawn to bring the
schools of Hawaii up to the standard
of mainland progress, failed to pass tn"
Territorial Senate tnis morning, trivial
objections raised ~ Senators Make
kau, Hewitt and EdkLr, all of Ha Taii,
preceding the tie vote on the measure
Senator Cecil Brown, first voting for
the passage of the bill, changed ms
vote so he will be empowered to move
for the reconsideration of the vote
taken If he so desires So his recorded
negative vote does not in reality place
him with Hewitt, Makekau, Baker, Pan
and ]. T. Brown, some of whom voted
against the measure in such shame
faced and half hearted manner at the
first roll call as to make their answers
practically inaudible, requiring another
calling of the roll by Clerk John
Wise
The objections, or attempted objec-
tions, voiced by Hewitt, Makekau and
Baker reflected more seriously on the
directors than they did on any of the
terms in the bill.
The only objection made by Hewitt
was a suggestion that the term super
vising principals" should be placed IN
the bill in place of supervisors That
was the best Hewitt could do. But
Makekau and Baker were apparently
determined to delay the bill at any
cost, and INDUCED in some long and
rambling objections, each of which was
met by clear and pointed explanation
by Senator Fairchild
First Ralter wanted to know ''hoW
much Hawaii is going to get out OF
this" and appeared placated for th'
time being, at least, when Fairchilc
stated that the Big Island would ge
$40, 900 more than it was entitled to.
