MINIMUM wage
BILL VETOED
BY GOV. FREAR


Governor Frear sent message to
the legislature this morning vetoing
Fl. B. 200, an act to Ak the minimum
wage of Iaborers on the public works
of Hawaii In his message he points
cut number Of reasons FOR retufhing
the bill unsigned The governor
stated that his principal technical OBJ
..ieetion is To- the third section. which
makes it an offense on the part of
the laborer to work at a wage below
the minimum rate.
Action on the veto was deferred irr
both houses.
The message said in part:
'sThe object of the bill is to fix a
minimum daily wage OF two dollars
tor laborers engaged on public works
for the county of Hawaii. The bill
contains three sections, to each OF
which there are objections.
"The principal technical objection is
to the third section, which by its ex-
press language makes the laborer him
self, instead of the unlawful paying or
employing of the laborer by the en-
ployer, an offense.
The principal substantial objection
Is to the first section, which prescribes
minimum wage Of two dollars day.
This is altogether too high for mini
mum wage under the circumstances.
II is, indeed, an increase. of sixty per
cent over the present minimum wage,
and that, too, at time when financial
stringency is expected soon TO vccur.
In 1907, a bill was passed placing the
minimum wage for the territory and
the counties at $3.50, but that bill was
vetoed and the veto was sustained.
Later In the same session similar
bill was passed placing such wage at
$1.25. That also was vetoed, but the
veto was not sustained In 1909 an
other bill was passed placing such
wage at $3.50. That also was vetoed
and the veto was sustained. In 1911
no bill was passed on this subject.
Thus, until this session the highest
minimum wage passed by the legis-
lature has been S1.50 and the highest
that has been sustained over a veto
has been $125, even in years of plenty.
Again, it must be borne in mind
that this is minimum wage and not a
maximum wage There is nothing in
the law now to prevent the counties
or the territory from paying higher
wages If the circumstances warrant,
and that is often and perhaps usually
done.
There is, moreover, no reason why
discrimination should be made by ter
ritorial law between the territory and
the counties or between the different
counties in this respect.
Moreover, the cost of living Is not
higher on the island of Hawaii THAI
on the other islands, and that county
can least afford to pay unnecessarily
high wages, for it has the smallest
income in proportion to its size and
needs
furthermore, no one class, whether
1t is the Iaboring class or any other
class, should be unduIy benefited at
the expense of any other class or OF
the whole people. The people at large
pay the taxes. They, as well as the
iaborers, should be given due consid-
Grafton.
again, the bill would be likely to
be prejudicial even to the laboring
class itself, for it would tend to pre-
vent the employment Of those who.
cannot command such high wages,
and also, since the available funds are
limited, it would prevent the employ
ment of so large number"

As a step calculated to keep tho

Under the present arrangement laid
down by Congress the Commissioners OF

the board of education should properly
