sticking away out in the street. but
still ''as close as practicable" Motor
cycles should also be required to
stand within Is inches of the right
curb. Vehicles should not be allowed
TO stand within so feet Of the corners.
Section IA of county ordinance No.
II OF the city and county OF Honolulu,
one OF the best sections in the ordin-
ance, has Teen left out entirely in the
new act. This section should by all
means be inserted in the new act. ;.
Section IA provides traffic passing
in easterly or westerly direction has
the right of way over traffic passing
on street running in q general north
erly or southerly direction. A.:
Section IL should provide mat all
motor cars when approaching cor
ner should sound horn or gong.
Section 19,-The latter part Of this
section beginning from and including
the word provided" in line s should
be eliminated as II only provides for
blockading a street on which cars do
net run.
A 5-ton Pierce or Packard truck will
blockade an ordinary street, and none
OF or streets is any too wide.
Section 81 Could stand a little
changing; il is not specific enough. A
person might carry twenty POUNDS
! strapped to his machine which would
hinder the steering of his bicycle, and
still he would not be carrying any
weight himself. :.
Section %. Should make it unlaw-
full for a person to operate any self

Just why the automobile owners and
sales firms were not represented at
the public hearing last night was a
puzzle to the committee members, who
believe a measure OF such Importance
would merit their attention and had a
notice Of the meeting published In the
newspapers yesterday. The only per-
SONS present besides the members
we're Speaker Holstein. author or the
bill, members Of the press and Motor
cycle Officer Chiffon and enc of his
men. E..
The bill was so lengthy that after
nearly three hours consideration the
review Of its many clauses was not
completed and another committee
meeting probably will be held this aft
ernoon to finish the job. 49,.
Chairman Coney, Speaker Ho;stein
and the committee members are in
favor Of thorough legislation to safe
guard pedestrians and to end the pres
eut startling number Of auto accidents.
Suggestions by Chiffon.
Motorcycle Officer Chiffon made
many suggestions for amendments TO
The bill as 1t was presented The sug-
gestions made by the motorcycle off.
Ger are given below:
Section !. Under "vehicle.-Road
rollers, steam rollers. tractors or any
other self-propelled vehicle that Is
used for towing passengers, baggage,
merchandise or freight, should be
classed as, or the same as automobiles
and should be registered, and made
carry their registered number in front
and on each side OF roller or tractor.
Section L. Under motor car
Road rollers, steam rollers, traction
engines, tractors or any other self
propelled vehicle that is used for tow
ing passengers, baggage, merchandise
or freight, should be classed as a mo-
tor car.
Section 4. Vehicles upon any street
having but two wheel tracks or well
beaten paths for vehicles should be
required when practicable to turn to
the right and surrender the left track
TO leave vehicle by, either going in
the opposite direction, or in the same
direction. Section only provides
meeting vehicle going in the opposite
direction. Section 5.--Should provide
that vehicles overtaking other vehicles
on city streets when passing to the
left of another vehicle should not in so
doing take the left side of street.
Section IA Except as close to the
curb as practicable" should lie strick-
en- out OF this section and in its place
inserted with right wheels within IL
inches of the curb. AS close as prac-
ticable is very ambiguous, and leaves
room for many disputes. as some one
will try to get in between two ma
chimes when there is not sufficient

and frequently mentioned in the Bible.
The instrument driven by Jael through
the temple of Sisera was probably q

cessity-in France, and we have 1t on
record that in 1347 10000 pins were
removed from the royal wardrobe for

MISS EMERSON MUST
{. TAKE KER MEDICINE
Uncle Sam Finds That American
Militant Is Being Treated
Fnirly BY John Bull.

Washington, d. c., April ; Charges
that Miss Zelie Emerson, the American
militant suffraget now in the British
prison for window smashing, has been
subjected to cruel and unusual treatment
are unfounded, according to a report to
the state department last night from Irwin
B. Laughlin, charge Of the American en-
bassy at London.
Charge Laughlin personally Investigated
the circumstances attending the forcible
feeding of Miss Emerson. He reported
that Mrs. r. M. Emerson, the prisoners
mother, has made nc complaint what
ever as to her daughters treatment and
has no charge to make that the feeding by
a stomach tub has been applied in a man
ner to any discomfort insepsrable
from It's nature"
1.-The embassy has been observing Miss
Emerson's case closely. said the charge,
and has replied to a number of com
m~unications from suffrage workers TO the
effect a the embassy could take no Of
ftctal step In the case unless discrimina-
ton to the disadvantage OF an American
citizen could be shown. Her treatment has
not been different In any a from that
accorded British women who have offend
ed In the same way, unless 1t be her case
Is met with more leniency.
"Sinc she began a hunger strike upon
her Imprisonment, she, In common with
British offenders, has been fed by q
stomach tube in the presence Of phySi-
clans and under their direction" s
