that it was blowing at the time, and
that he went into the pilot house.

house inspector of the district of Ha-
waii, was the first witness called this
afternoon before the examining
board. He stated that he was in
bed when the collision took place. He
awoke and found that the engine had
stopped He thought then that the
Kukui could not have made the port
of Honolulu, and consequently he
went on deck to find that collision
had taken place. He said that after
he had arrived at a pilot house he
saw a light, presumably of a schoon-
er in a distance That the light was
lost sight of, while the Kukui was
being swung around. The crew of
the Kukui We're on deck, and the
searchlights were played on the wat

that vicinity for more than about an
hour and half.
He stated further that he did not
take command of the Kukui, shortly
after the collision, as Captain Kerig-
er, her regular sailing master, was
on the lookout at that time.

was severe, we would have stayed
there all night, or perhaps longer. The

HOUSE Committee INSPECTS
FILIPINO CAMPS; CHAIRMAN
SAYS IMMIGRANTS ARE D. X,

Rapid but thorough inspection of the
Filipino camps at various plantations
of the island was made yesterday by
the House Committee on immigration
and Agriculture. Under the leadership
of Chairman Ed Towse, the committee
took an automobile yesterday and aft
er a complete circuit of the island and
a lunch at Haleiwa, returned last even
ing.
That the Filipinos are not "undesira-
BILE citizens" and that if properly look
ed after they become valuable planta-
tion laborers, is the conclusion reached
by Chairman Towse, and it is probable
that the committee report will NOT con
denim the importation of the little
brown brothers" by the Hawaiian Sug-
ar Planters Association Towse said
today that the reports made to the
committee by plantation managers and
policemen and by the laborers them
selves prove that under proper condi-
tions they make good laborers are not
disorderly, and not uncleanly.
THE first inspection was made at
Kahuku plantation" said Towse today.
The quarters there are fine. The
houses are models, better than they
would have in Honolulu. There are
about 150 men and twenty five women.
At first most of the women worked in
the fields; now only "a few do so. All
the Filipinos here We're In good physi-
cal condition, and Manager Adams de-
scribed them to us as good laborers.
