HOLDS UP new
POSTMASTERS
Delegate Maintains That These
Offices Have Never Been
Political SpoiIs
By C. S. ALBERT



WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 22.--
The three Hawaiian postmasters, ap-
pointed early in the present admins
tration, are being held up until Dele
gate Kaianianaole is given a hearing
by the senate committee on postoffi-
ces and pSstroads. He requested that
no action be taken in the direction of
confirming these selections until his
views had been expressed. In nam
ing postmasters ii is the invariable
rule for the senate committee to sub
NIT the nominations to whoever re-
presents the localities concerned. In
this instance the names were sent to
the delegate, there being no senator
or Representative for. Hawaii. Approx
al was Withheld until hearing could
be arranged.
Meantime, the three nominations
remain before the committee and have
not been favorably reported to the
senate. The selections were made at
the suggestion of John H. Wilson, na-
tional committeeman from Hawaii
for the Democrats. 1t is expected
confirmation will be eventually ac-
CoHiDlSutu, Dul the uSud4 Tuf0S vi
courtesy will be followed and nothing
done until the delegate can be heard.
MY request for a hearing is based
colely on the ground that postmasters
have not been and should not be re-
garded as political appointments.
They should not be classified as
spoils of war. They are more in the
nature of civil service officials than
purely political selections.
at has never before happened in
Hawaii that postmasters have been
regarded as political prizes. For ter
years to my personal knowledge this
condition has not arisen. 1t is an
entirely neW departure and one which
is step backwards. in my opinion.
'sCapability and fitness have here
tofore ruled in the selection of post
masters in Hawaii. These officials
have been chosen without reference
10 whether they were Republicans or
Democrats. The person best adapted
Cor the place has always been given
the office.

WIRELESS KRUMM

LOCAL STATIONS
VIII Make Inspection Prior to
the Granting of Licenses
on the Islands

L. r. Krumm, United States radio
inspector, with headquarters in Wash
ington, ID. c., arrived here today or
the Korea, for the purpose of examin
ing all the wireless stations on the
islands precedent to recommending
the issuance of licenses to them by
u. S. Radio inspector r. b. Woolverton
in charge of the Pacific Coast divi
sion, which includes Alaska and the
Hawaiian islands.
Inspector Woolverton was prevent
ed from making the trip by reason OF
the press of business in his office ow.
ing to the strike, he and his force
being busy with seeing that the laws
concerning the wireless service are
obeyed by ship masters. Six of these
stations belong to the wireless de-
partment of the Mutual Telephone
Limited and one to the Federal Tele-
graph Company At the conclusion of
his business here, Chief Krumm will
go to the Los Angeles district to in
spect stations there, and may visit
Seattle before returning to Washing
ton.
Inspector Woolverton says that
vessels in San Francisco have
no difficulty in procuring licensed
operators from the Marconi Company.
He has sent a report to Washington
concerning a violation of the law by
the steamers Speedwell and the Nan
Smith, which left a small northern
port with only one operator on each.
This was explained by the fact that
in such small port it was impossible
to obtain more than the two operat-
ors employed
Inspector Woolverton denied the
published report that he was about
to be suspended, and says it origin
ated from some unknown persons of
malevolent disposition.
