Because the cash is not now avail
able and for the additional reason
that active work could not begin in
less than three months at the earliest.
the awarding of the contract for the
paving of Kuhio bay wharf at Hilo
was postponed by the board of harbor
commissioners yesterday evening. The
Lord Young Engineering Company was
the lowest bidder. offering TO lay the
paving for a total figure of $24, 4S2 .65.
Both fir and ohia blocks are to be
used in the paving. Ohia costs about
40 cents a square yard less than fir,
it is stated, besides being more dur
able.
Ed. Lord explained to the board
that his firm would require probably
three months to get some OF the
material. Meantime the serious
question of how the board will pay for
the Improvement was taken up. It
was found that if the contractors are
paid in bonds, which they must dis
count at the bank, the board will be
virtually disposing of the bonds at
less than par, for the contracting firm
would require about per cent more
il they accept payment in bonds, as

LACK Of CASH CAUSESDELAY
Of PAVING THE KUH!O BAY wharf

this likely would b. the discount made
by the banks on Tine bonds.
Col. c. J. Mccarthy explained that
in three months time, according to
the opinion of the best financial au-
thorities in the East. the market will
be in shape TO take the Hawaiian is
sue at par. If this proves true the
territory will be able to sell its bonds
at par on the mainland, collect in cash
and pay the contractor in cash, thus
saving the per cent which would be
lost by the other plan.
He also explained that all doubt as
TO the legality of the bond issue sale
which has arisen from the resignation
of former Treasurer D. l. Conkling
can be removed in that time When
the legislature meets next February
the administration can introduce and
perhaps cause to become law the en-.
abling statute which has been outlin
ed to the governor by Dillon, Thomp-
son & Clay, the New York legal firm.
This proposed law will make it per
fectly proper for the bond sale to be
made by the treasurer who happens
to be in office when the sale is nego-
tiated. regardless of whether he was
the treasurer who signed the paper.

tain that England can throw more

another million to the front, these

copied MIR. Lloyd Georges plan of
radically increased taxation, including
doubling of the income tax. War loans
have been authorized which will in the
near future exceed two thousand mil
lion dollars; and the British nation,
from the King down to the ordinary
shopkeeper, have shown readiness to
subscribe to these public loans. The
loan Of last month was greatly over.
