Several Important Depart
ments Suffer Reductions
in Demands.
Measure Passes Second
Reading, but Fight Is
Not Ended.

Chairman Watkins of the house
finance committee presented the report
on the Loan Bill yesterday Afternoon.
The measure originally called for
$5,9li, ,7l0.9a, of which amount $3,797,-
$40 was carried in bill passed two
years ago, leaving the amount asked
for in the present measure for public
improvements '$2,117.47O.99.
When returned yesterday the bill WIS
found delcted of items totalling ST..
49S,o4O, only 1924, ,23o.90 being allowed.
This bill, as originally introduced, is
known as an administration measure,
but the house fnance committee prac.
tically hacked it to pieces in such a
manner as to make it hardly recogniz-
able. "r
Among the changes made was the
|'cntting down Of the Honolulu water
works appropriation of $750,00O to
$5O0,000 and the Honolulu sewers from
100000 to $150,OOO. Under the head
ing "Wharf and Harber Improve
ments, y the item "Honolulu Qnclud-
ing purchase of marine railway land)
$l,l00,000," was cut down to $750,OO0.
Tie Hilo wharf item, $4jO,0OO, was
reduced to $4,000, butita newF item,
HHilo wharf approach FROM Waiakea,
s25,000,i' was added.i Frnviston was
also made for the followins yyiarves:
Kaneohe, $500; Kailua 81 . 2,SH0; Ke-
auhon, $250O; Hanalei, $Seons sSpahola,
$l2.Ooo; Nawiliwih, noa.aPukoo,
$4,000, and LahaiRa, or yitiudy.son con
ditien that the board of ,lbarbor com
missioners, upon investiHatioDj locate
a suitable site, $loO,000. a,3 49,.
For the road from Lahaina to Lahai
naluna, s21 800 is appropriated, The
item calling for a territoriak public Of
fee building at a cost of Sfpo,0o0 was
fstruck out entirely tTher0Janitem of
$780, 900, Hawaii belt road had othe fol-
lowing proviso attached to ,jt: Of
"Of which so much as may Jbea neces-
sary, not exceeding $3Q,A4lo shall be
I-expendod on the road from tther Qlty of
Hilo to the boundary between the dis
tricts of South liilo and Puma"
The report was adopted and the bill
comes mp for third reading today. 1t
is more than likely that n number of
members will endeayor to raise several
amounts and make additional appro-
priations today, but Chairman Watkins
and his stalwart committee financiers
will do all they are able to prevent it,

Knudsen Takes Floor.

The real fight started there, and none
of the speakers dared to move with.
out book of rules. Knudsen called
Judd to the chair which lost Oahu one
vote on the floor.
After several dilatory motions had
failed, Rice rose to a height of oratory
anent greedy Oahu that moved the en-.
tire house of representatives to tears.
The house, incidentally, during recess,
had fled in and occupied the entire
lobby.
Coke answered Rice, stating that Ha-
waii, after petitfOning congress again
and again to keep hands off on local
matters, had this one chance to show
that it is really capable of legislating
for herself.
Wirtz said he doubted Rice's SINGER
ity, and that the Kauai senator beiiev-
ed in his heart that the measure was
just one. Cnillingworth declared that
Rice's impassioned appeal to defeat the
hill had not been intended for the en-
tire senate but was directed solely to
j. Frank Woods, the new senator to
show him how popular he would make

A Prayer for the Babies.

"God, since Thou hast laid the little
children into our arms in utter helpless
ness, with no protection save our love,
we pray that the sweet appeal of their
baby hands may not be in vain. Let
no innocent life in our city be quenched
again in useless pain through our ignor
ance and sin. May we who are mothers
or fathers seek eagerly to join wisdom
to our love, lest love itself be deadly
when unguided by knowledge. Bless
the doctors and nurses, and all the
friends of men, who are giving of their
skill and devotion to the care iof our
children. If there are any who were
kissed by love in their own infancy,
but who have no child to whom they
may give as they received, grant them
such largeness of sympathy that they
may rejoice 10 pay their debt in full
to all children who have need of them
Forgive US, our Father, for the
heartlessness of the past, Grant us great
tenderness for all babes who suffer, and
a growing sense of the divine mystery
that is brooding in the soul of every,
child. Amen
