M Meetinq

According to the statement made
by Supervisor Henning at the meet
ing of the Chamber of Commerce,
the county will only have an income
of about 100000 this year, as
against 100000 last year.
With reduction of fifty per cent
in income, the county is facing
hard times said the supervisor.
Then how do you figure to pay
interest on the bonds, that may be
issued, if so voted for by the citi-
zens of Maui?" asked ID. c. Lind
say.
Supervisor Henning answered
that within two or three years the
various Improvements would have
to be made, and that there would
be revenue from the improve
ments works that would pay the in
terest on the loan. THE expend-
lture of the county must be cut
down to meet the income," finish
ed Henning.
County Attorney Case wanted to
know what the bond issue bad to
do with the matter that the meet
ing was called for. If we are to
do politics about the bond issue,
then let us get busy, right away"
said Mr.. Case The matter was then
dropped and communications were
read. The Hilo Board of Trade
and the Kauai Chamber of Com
merce asked for the assistance of the,
Maui Chamber in fighting for break
water appropriations. Jack Desha,
the secretary to the Delegate, wrote
saying that nothing would be done
at the present session in regard to
the matter of a new breakwater at
Kahului. He suggested that more
data be sent in time for next ses-
sion.
The Chamber did not take up
anything else, except some accounts
for the Maui float shown in the
Floral Parade. 1t was voted that
the sum of 500 be paid DR.. Aiken
at once and that further considera-
ton of the matter will be taken up
at the next meeting.
