BANANA COURT
HEARS MODEST
CLAIM

Yesterdays session of the banana
court proved OF unusual interest. In
addition to hearing names of still 9TH

strange and heretofore unknown to
the banana experts, the judges had
| the pleasure of listening to the most
modest claim yet advanced, and the
natural curiosity in gazing on the
wife of the original yellow fever
case whose infection resulted in the
celebrated mosquito campaign and ba-
mana plant destruction.
The most modest claim was that OF
| a Hawaiian woman. Moanauli, who
asked for only s. damages. Jack Kali
agiela appeared in her behalf, and
pleaded tearfully. The claimant of
historic interest was Mrs. Mele Ako-
loka, wife CT Akoloka, a customs
guard who was bitten by a yellow few
er mosquito while aboard a Japanese
tramp steamer in 1911. 1t was fol
lowing his infection that the crusade
against the mosquito and their breed
ing places, including the thousands of
banana plants around Honolulu be-
gan.
Mrs. Akoloka's claim includes a
fairsized menagerie, which was de-
stroyed by the order of the board of
health. In it were twelve goats, ten
chickens, ten pullets and twenty-f four
pigeons; also large amount of house
hold furnishings and personal proper.
