HEAT FROM GREAT CITIES

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE heat gen
Grated by the great cities of the pres

a marked degree, according to the be-
lief expressed today by Reginald Phe-
lam Bolton, president of the American
Society of Heating and Ventilating En-
gineers. President Bolton, who made
known his views on the subject at the
open session of the engineers conven-
ton at Hotel La Sale, said observa-
tions covering a period of many years
in New York City have proved that the

flom the Bureau of Good Roads Of the
Department of Agriculture. He stated
that the Commission was responsible
for the work done and that he wanted
the best skilled advice that could be
obtained He had seen the work of
the Federal men in California, the
Southern States and in Cuba and it
was good and he believed that as good
work could be done here.
Mr.. Carter dwelt upon the fact that
the commission should not try to
tackle too many small propositions at
once, but that the work done should
be thorough and contiguous. He stat.
ed that the definition of a belt road"
was a matter of interest and import
ance and that he did not think there
was enough money for all the roads
in the country and therefore a strict
Interpretation of the term should be
adhered to- g,
Mr., Moir made a short address in
which he stated that he agreed with
the views of the last speaker but
would certainly recommend that the
work should start at Hio and follow
directly along the Coast. He offered
free and easy access to the commits
sion for any good rock that was avail
able on Onomea plantation and his
assistance in every way.
Thurston Approves Specialist.
L. A. Thurston was in favor of not
only starting in Hilo but also in Ha-
makua, where he complained bitterly
OF he roads being so bad that he never
went out in an automobile without be-
ing stuck at least once or twice, while
tie Volcano Stables had given up its
auto service around the island in that
direction. He could see no reason that
harmony between the county and the
commission should not exist and
thought that Southworth should not
feel hurt at the calling in of special
list, comparing this to the calling in
of bridge specialists I'M the railroad
work, What he wanted to see was a
road on which it would be possible
to get around the island.
Southworth then made his long adj
dress, in which he reviewed his career
from birth, disparaging the idea Of
another engineer, on account of the
fact that duplicate organizations would
lie in the field, which would be un-
necessary. He stated that his posi-
ton was free from politics and that
he was in every way competent to
handle the work.
Mr.. c. E. Wright kokuaed Mr.. Moir's
suggestions and added that he had all
confidence in the commission and
complimented the Governor on his APP
pointments. Mr.. Thurston stated that
when Mr.. Southworth had commented
on the fact that Maui, Kauai and Oahu
had al employed the county engineers
for this work, he had evidently for
gotten that the money for this island
was as much as that for all the others
together, that Oahu was a pocket
borough as compared with Hawaii,
which was eight times as large.
Appeals for Results.
Mr.. Holmes made a plea for inn
mediate work on the Volcano road, for
the sake of the tourists, while Mr..
Kiuegel asked for bridge work in the
Hamakua section. Jim Lewis stated
that he was in favor of Southworth for
the position and in response to a
question from Horner stated that the
county, in the next two years, would
have about 100000 to spend on roads,

likely that the local people might
come to the front with suggestions
in regard to ways and means. Gen
eral Macomb states that he will take
the proposition up with the Terrific
rial authorities and also with the
War Department, with a view to
sending company of regular troops
