The poi bill, House bill 100, passed
second reading in the Senate this
and will be up for third
reading on Monday 1t was taken
from the table on Thursday and de-
ferred until today. Senator Chilling
worth, who is chairman of the health
committee, to which the House bill
was referred on it's receipt by the
upper House, arose to state that he
had not receded from his original po-
sition of believing that the city SUPER
visors should have charge of SANTA
tion matters, but he had himself made
tour of the poi shops and had found
conditions in such a sad state that he
was now willing to move the passage
of the poi bill, which gives to the
Board of Health all powers of super
vision and regulation in such matters.
Senator Kaleiopu raised point as
to whether the bill could be reconsid-
cred since the journal recorded that
the bill had been indefinitely post

soon after the laborers who were Sc

employees, made a rush for the street,

Labor in Demand.
In stating the facts alleged to form
a reasonable basis for the enactment
of the act, the return points out that
the agricultural resources of Hawaii
are in excess of the available labor
supply, and that in agricultural pur-
suits upwards of $75,OOO,OOO are in
vested; that sugar cane raising re-
quires continuous work throughout
the year and that any considerable
diminution of the number of laborers
engaged would result in irreparable
injury to all industrial enterprises in
Hawaii as we'll as to the sugar indus
try. The security Of the capital al
ready invested as we'll as the future
development of the islands requires
the securing of a large number of
iaborers from places outside Hawaii.
The Pacific Coast is not available as
a source of labor the nearest avail
able sources being the Philippines,
Porto Rico and Europe, and owing to
the distances involved the cost of
getting each laborer to Hawaii aver
ages upwards of 800.
Bringing Laborers Expensive.
The Board OF migration is and has
for many years past been continuous
ly bringing immigrants to Hawaii and
large sums of money have been ex-
pended for that purpose. The Ha-
waiian Sugar Planters Association
