that because of the ill-kept condition
of the water dam. 100000 gallons a
day are escaping. due TO a broken
toe" OF the dam. and that the high
pressure pump al the Beretania
street station. purchased by the ter.
ritory at the instance OF former SUI
perintendent of Public Works Mar
ston Campbell. at a cost of approxi-
mately $4,000, has never pumped
that many gallons and is now covered
with dust from lack of use.
Far-reaching and extensive changes
may be made in the system before the
city finally settles on a plan for its
transfer. 1t has been suggested TO
the supervisors that the water OF
Pauoa valley. which is now running
to waste. be conserved, and used to
assist in supplying Honolulu.
But of the many projects which are
to be proposed, the question OF the
Nunanu dam will probably be upper
most.
The resolution may be introduced
by courtesy. II the present one fails
TO come before the city fathers with
cut delay. Supervisor Wolter. chair
man of the health committee. stated
this morning that he viii introduce
one on his own motion. calling for a
meteorological examination Of the wa
ter of the big Nuuanu dam. He stated
that the matter was of too serious i'm.
Port. and the health of the city too
imminently involved, to warrant any
delay.
Il know of my own knowledge that
rotted animal matter and decomposed
vegetation covers the bottom OF the
big dam. 1t should have been cared
for long ago. The health of the com.
munity is involved. We cannot ex.
pect good health while drinking water
which has rested on dead animals for
months and months. The whole dam
should be gone over. the bottom thor.
oughly cleaned. and many other
things done in the sanitary interests

BRITISH LIQUOR
REVENUE GROWS

LONDON, April 23.-Chancellor
Lloyd George, in introducing yester-
day the budget of the British govern
ment in the house OF commons, told
the committee that, while he could
not remit any taxes, he expected to
pull through without levying any new
imposts.
This he said in spite of the fact
that the budget showed an expendi-
tire of upwards of S975,000,O0e and
he faced the necessity of finding $751;
5000 more revenue
There are no indications that the
trade boom has reached its maximum
and there are no signs OF overprodnc-
ton" said the chancellor, and TAX
ing all facts into consideration, I feel
justified in coming to the conclusion
that we have entered on the most
growing year that British trade has
ever SEEN.
MIR. Lloyd George estimated that
the Increase in the customs and the
excise taxes would be $12,S25.000, the
increase in death duties $4,000
and the increase in income tax and
supcr-tax s5.720,000. The balance of
tho shortage would Ee made up with
the income tax and other revenue due
last year but only paid at the begin
ming of the current year and $4,000
900 taken from the exchequer bal
ances representing money voted for
the navy in 1911-12 but not expended.
The chancellor, estimated that the
total revenue on the existing basis OF
taxes would be 979,125,000, leaving
4 margin of $4,000 over the esti-
mated expenditure.
The expenditure on education and
social reform was lauded by the chan
celor as reproductive work promis-
ing strength, happiness and efficiency
TO the nation" -
The chancellor drew an encouraging
cheer from the house with the state
ment that, although the consumption
of spirits actually had decreased by
2S 900 900 gallons in four years. the
revenue had increased by $25,0eO, 900.
This, he said, proved that his method

Further up the coast, where the

some dangerous looking rocks, the

upon which tired sailors have drawn

Several private advices from the south

the plant would grow rapidly with a few
days of wrm sunshine, and the expecta-
lions OF better crop conditions next
