Contractors Expected to Suffer Through Ruling on the Ddock

will be made of the Pearl HarbOr site,
and every known engineering method
used to determine its fitness for q
drydock basin.
This statement was made to a Star
Bulletin reporter by Rear-admiraI C.
IS. r. Moore, naval cOmmandant in
Hawaii. this noon. Admiral Moore
said that it was the intention of the
government to be absolutely fair with
the contractors, but that the careful
investigation that had been made BIZ
the naval engineers had failed to
show that there was anything funda-
mentally wrong with the site. and thai
the contractors had been interfered
with in no way in the actual COnstruC-
ton Of the dock. Had more weight Of
concrete been poured on the bottom
before the section was pumped, il
might have held satisfactorily.
The recent action seems to bear our
Admiral MOOre's opinion.
Coast Dock Said Not to
Endanqer Pearl Harbor Work.

Inspector Halsey has received Off
cial advances FROM Washington that
the decision just handed down has
comprehensiVely and conclusiVely dis
posed of the domieile' question"
The court decision Is not based on
local case, but on a case occurring
on the Atlantic seaboard, where a wo-
man, Anna Lapina, after an absence,
entered the country for immoral pur-
poses. was arrested and ordered de-
ported. Her counsel set up the plea
that the provisions Of the immigration
act already mentioned could deal only
to allen immigrants" that is, aliens
seeking to enter for the first time,
and could not affect "domiciled
aliens" The case has been pending
since 1909 and the supreme court de-
cision was handed down on January 5
Of this year.
The meat of the decision is con-
tanned in the following extract:
"Upon-a review of the whole mat
ter, we are satisfied that Congress,
in the Act Of 1903, sufficiently ex-
pressed. and in the Act of 1907 reit-
Grated. the purpose of applying its
prohibition against the admission OF
aliens, and its mandate for their de-
portationa to all aliens whose history,
conditions or characteristics brought
them within the descriptive clauses,
irrespective of any qualification arts
ing out of a previous residence or
domicile in this country"
At the, immigration station this
morning it was stated that about 81
cases are now pending which will be
affected by this decision. a number
Of the cases being those Of Japanese
who were denied entrance here by the
immigration officials and took the case
into the federal court on habeas cor
pus proceedings.
