NOuRISHING THAN s

Road Improvement.

'hSNAN hiifi NNNi'SlNs
HANALEI, January 14.-According
to pretty good authority, the Hanalei
Hill grade will be completed within
another month. The completion of
this work will remove one of the great
est drawbacks to auto travelling on this
side of the island. The grade will be
one of four per cent and an easy one
to climb. Sand is being applied to
the stretch of bottom road with the
hopes of preventing a repetition of
the recently almost impossible con-
dition of this road.
Volcano Road Left in Lurch.
HILO, January 1.-THE belt road
commission held an interesting meet
ing yesterday, winding up late at night.
In the evening there we're thirty or
forty Hilo people present in the Mas
onic Hall to protest against the COM
going over Hamakua way
with the road improvements before
reconstructing the four miles and more
Of volcano road between Hilo and the
Puma boundary which is in a bad way.
John Scott spoke eloquently for the
volcano road, which would cost but
$4,000, being finished first and was
followed by others of equal force of
the tourist traffic being con-
sidered something vital not only to
Hilo and this island, but to the whole
Territory. The vote of the commits
sioners, however, was to work on the
long stretches toward Hamakua Lewis
and Chairman Horner voted for the
volcano road, but Hind, Carter and
Marston Campbell cast votes for the
other direction. The supervisors will
now get busy to see if they can not
themselves fix the bad stretch on the
volcano road, on the surveys complet-
ed by Engineer Bishop.
