The opinion is as follows:
Honolulu. T. H., May %. 1918.
Honorable Marston Campbell,

Works, Honolulu, T. H.
Dear Sir:
In reply to your verbal request
for the opinion Of this depart
ment upon the question raised by
the high school contract as to the
relative responsibilities and pow
ers of yourself and the architect,
We would advise you as follows:
1t appears from an examination
of the contract, that the architect
is to act as the superintendent di-
rectly in charge of the work to
be done. 1t is his duty to see
that the specifications are in all
ways fully complied with and I'M
der the terms of the contract, you
may rely upon his certification to
that effect.
1t is. among other things, pro
vided that payments will be made
monthly on account of work done,
based upon certificates issued by
the architect, ten per cent of the

sion Is also made whereby the

Expert Makes Statement.
Prof John M. Young made asstate.
ment to the Star-Bulletin this morn
ing bearing directly on the fall Of the
truss and also on the alleged lack Of
precautions in the putting up of the
steel work. Mr.. Young was the steel
expert agreed on by the contractors
and architects to pass on the steel
and also on methods of construction
for the building, when the questions
already mentioned arose. He made
a detailed examination Of the situa-
ton and then submitted his report
AS already published, In this re-
port Mr.. Young gave two methods
possible to be followed. One of these
he declared emphatically to be the
preferred and safest method and this
was to put up the side walls along
with the steel pillars, tieing the pill.
lars and side walls together with steel
beams. The other method, which he
did not recommend as preferable, waa
to put up the steel first, with Ger.
tain precautions as to bracing, guy.
ing and temporary supporting.
The steel workers took the last
named method and In spite of the risk
it involved, failed, says Mr.. Young, to
take ordinary precautions.
'The. trouble, believe personally.
was lack of proper equipment" said
Mr.. Young this morning. ct was
never intended that they should put
this great truss up on the steel pillars
and then take away the supporting
derrick. They should have kept the
truss properly guyed and held up by
the derrick until other parts of the
steel were up and firmly lied together.
This was not done. They had only
one derrick on the job. They put up
the truss and then had to use the der.
rick to handle other steel into posi-
ton.
why these Obvious precautions
were not taken is beyond me. People
used to stop and watch the work and
even knowing nothing of steel, they
could see the danger involved"
Mr.. Young does not believe that the
construction would have been unsafe
had reasonable precautions been TAX
en- He says that even though he rec.
commended another method, If his ad
vice in detail had been followed in
using the less preferable method, and
if the truss had been properly safe

MOLINA FISH AND
GAME CLUB HOLDS
ANNUAL MEETING

The annual meeting of the Molina
Fish e Game Club was held at Mo-
lima on Saturday, March %. There
was a large attendance, and a great
deal of interest was taken in the re-
port of the secretary and treasurer,
John Hall.
The following Officers were elected
to serve for the coming year: Pres
ident, C. H. Skinner; vice president,
j. G.. Long: secretary, E. II. Platt;
treasurer, j. G. Hall.
The treasurer's statement was
checked by Z. II. Platt and ] G.
Long, who acted as an auditing COM
mittee and found the books in good
shape and the accounts correct.
The report of the treasurer showed
that the total receipts from all sour
ces were S116.17, which was spent
in making repairs and improvements
at the fish hatchery, as during the
past year an acre of ground had been
cleared and fenced. $50 feet of pipe
line had been laid, the spawning
beds cleaned, the screens repaired,
$50. 900 native trout had been dis
tributed in five lakes, Cottonwood
creek had been stocked and 100000
spawn had been sent to the state
game and fish department at Denver.
The proposed improvements for
next season include new roof for
the hatchery, l so feet of pipe line to
bring in warm water for the hatch
ing troughs and also few repairs on
the building. This, with the expense
of distributing the young trout in
the several lakes and streams in the
valley will cost about S100.
The yearly dues will remain at 81
as before, and the support of all the
fishermen and sportsmen in the coun-
ty is earnestly solicited, as it is the
