GREAT DELUGE
VISITS GARDEN !.
ISLAND TOWNS

AT Liliue on Saturday night, from
Z to 10 O'Clock, there was ten inches
of rain. It was the largest rainfall
on record for the island of Kauai.
And it was the greatest freshet the
island ever experienced" Such is
the report brought from the Garden
Island by J. II. Fiddes OF the B. r.
Dillingham; Ccmpany's Office, who re-
turned in the w. G. Hall this morning
after rough passage across the chan
mel.
"A great deal OF damage was done
to the cane" Mr.. Fiddes said Whole
fields of Lihue plantation were washed
away. The main track OF the planta-
ten was moved $50 feet.
''At Anahola both the big and the
small bridge were carried away. The
roads i'm pieces are blocked with fall
en- trees 1t is impossible to get from
Lihue to Hanalei on account OF wash.
outs on the road. There was rain
fall of 24h inches in five days, in
GLIDING 10 inches In IS hours. The
river at Waimea oyerhowed its banks,
flooding the town. Hofgaand's store
floor was under water.
Besides the beautiful county build
ing lately completed at Lihue, there
are many building improvements. The
Kauai Emporium is finer, in my opin-
len, than any store In Honolulu Ka-
uai not only holds its own for attrac-
tiveness, but also for prosperity and
progress.

ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
WORKING PLANS ARE
OUTLINED AT MEETING

Judge Sanford b. Dole, chairman OF
tie legislative committee Of the Assoc
ciated Charities, in report read at
Joint meeting at 4 O'Clock yesterday
of the directors Of the charities and
the members CT the Chamber OF Com
merce committee on charities and so
cial welfare, outlined ways and means
whereby steps may be taken to adopt
a more thorough legislative policy
with regard to the carrying out OF
philanthropic and social welfare work
in Honolulu.
One of the plans outlined In the
report is that a conference OF those
social workers interested In legisla-
ton be held November 2, at which
time there would be discussion re-
garding legislation, and the adoption
CT some definite plan OF action. 1t is
also the plan to introduce before the
1915 legislature a legislative program.
containing several items which will
take the fern Of administrative meas
ures having the endorsement of the
governor. Judge Dole's report fol-
lows @
The legislative committee was
formed after Mrs. F. e. Steere pre-
scented to the executive committee the
need of correlation OF social legisla-
ton and formation of a definite uni
fed plan Of action.
ITO this end the committee sug-
gests that conference OF workers
interested in legislation be held by
the committee on, say Tuesday, the
third of November, the hour and place
to be announced later in circular
letter setting forth the objects of the
conference. This will give Miss Der.
gen a chance out OF her wide expert
ence to advise with US and suggest
the best course of action.
The Ideals not to interfere with
legislative plans which an individual
institution may have in mind; but to
meet together so that by mutual
understanding of each others scheme
we may be better able to aid one an.
ether when the time comes. In short,
this will insure the group as unit
backing the efforts OF the individual
society.
Governor Pinkham has signified his
willingness to consider a legislative
program prepared by the social work
ers of Honolulu with reference to TAX
ing from it those propositions which
he would desire to introduce as adj.
ministratiye measures"
Another report. prepared by the
Chamber of Commerce committee on
charities and social welfare, WAS read
touching on the plans which that COM
mittee has in mind for endorsing all
organizations in Honolulu which are
engaged in charitable work Letters
have been sent cut by the committee
calling for reports of the work of the
various organizations. When these
reports are all in, the committee, in
tends to present cards of endorsement
to those societies which it deems woF-l
thy societies Letters to the number
of 81 already have been sent out, and
thus far but few replies have been
received.
The Kings Daughters were voted
into membership in the Associated
Charities 1t was reported by ]. r.

GOETHA[SA ASKS
DESTROYERS
FOR CANAL
OFFICIAL WASHINGTON THINKS
THEY ARE NEEDED TO THOR
oUGHLY ENFORCE NEUTRAL.
IN THE CANAL ZONE.

Washington, Dec. 13.-Col. Goethals
has requested that destroyers be sent
to the canal zone Immediately, it was
learned tonight, but no specific eXpla-
nation OF the need for available yes--
sells there was included in the message.
A reply asking for this explanation
was sent at once, but no answer had
been received from Colonel GOethals
at late hour.
Officials believe the canal governor
has experienced some difficulty in pre-
serving the complete neutrality OF the
zone and its territorial waters. Many
ships belonging to belligerent nations
are in the vicinity and it is thought
possible Goethals has found himself
unable TO check use of their wireless
plants within the three-mile limit to
convey information to warships at sea.
With swift naval vessels to aid, it
would be an easier matter to regulate
use OF wireless and it was thought
probale tonight that the necessary de-
stroyers would be dispatched as soon
as Colonel Goethals' explanation is re-
ceived.
