SHERIFF ROSE
CONTINUES 10
Fight BOARD
Promoted Officers Fail TO Put
in Appearance for Exams
Before Commission T..

Sheriff Roses determination not to
allow the civil service commission to
have any hand or say in his appoint
ments was seen in & new light at noon
today when the commissioners met to
hold the promotion examinations as
provided for in the rules and regula-
tions of that body.
Not one of the three men promoted
by Sheriff Rose when he succeeded
former Sheriff Jarrett in office ap-
peared to take the examinations.
Commissioner C. H. Brown stated
that Sheriff Rose had informed him
that he had advised the three Of
fieers not to take the examinations,
which he ascribed as the reason for
their non-apperance.
Only one man took the exami1la-
tions. He was A. H. Gunderson, at
present a patrolman. His examina-
tion was for the position of. sergeant
of police and he will be ratified to-
morrow if he passed.
The commissioners did not openly
comment during the meeting on the
position taken by Sherff Rose. Chair
man Edings, however, remarked this
morning that the commission was
within it's rights in insisting upon the
promoted men taking the examina-
tiou. He was asked what powers the
commission had to enforce it's orders
in this matter, whether the sheriff
could be adjudged in contempt of the
commission for ignoring the orders
He said as he understood it the COM
missioners could only issue the or
ders, notify the auditor OF them-and
then wait for the sheriff to move.
When Rose took over the office, he
appointed ]. K. Kanepuu chief clerk,
Daniel Kamahu, captain. and J. ]. En-
wright, sergeant. Under the rules of
the commission, when vacancy oc-
ours it shall, be filed by a man quail
ified for the position by passing a
civil service examination. The exam
ination today was. to qualify men OF
the police department to I'LL the three
vacancies. ~"
Deputy City and County. Attorney
Weaver rendered an opinion Saturday,
holding that the commission was
within it's rights in insisting that the
men for the three positions qualify
by passing the examinations.

WILDER
SUGGESTS new
r O. SOLUTION
Would Separate Postoffice and
Other Federal 0ffices-Kee
Present Site

As a resultaof a conference between
Judge Arthur A. Wilder and postoffice
authorities during Judge Wilder's re.
cent visit In Washington, there is a
plan now being considered by the post
office and treasury departments to
keep the local postoffice site and es-
tablisht elsewhere the other federal
offices, s--
How far this plan is being consid-
cred Judge Wilder does not definitely
know. He made it in the form of a
suggestion. and it was well received.
at is matter on which local opin-
icn should be expressed also" said
Judge Wilder in speaking of the plan.
Unless some such scheme is adopted
dent see any prospect Of new
pcstoffice building this year or next
and probably not the year after that.
Bob Shingles bill is held up in CON-
mittee, the outlook for appropriation
for big federal building is slight at
present. and there is nothing defi-
mite about building
Meanwhile the Dostcfffce here Is
suffering for lack of room. there are

constantly growing worse
Why should not Uncle Sam keep
the present pcstoffice site and on this
and on the site of Honolulu Hale,
lust adjoining, put up new postoffice
building? That would accomplish two
Cbjects-it would give us postoffice
in the business center of the city and
it would separate the postoffice from
the federal courts and department of
Justice offices. There is some objec-
ton to having the federal courts in a
building which will be overrun with
the miscellaneous postoffice traffic
aid this objection would be overcome.
The federal government has no
appropriation for upkeep of grounds,
which is one reason for a disinciina-
tion to appropriate money for a new
federal building where the grounds
surrounding are large.
Il took this matter up with the post
office people in Washington and they
are now considering it. | understand.
hope that there will be a discussion
CT 1t here. Otherwise don't see much
chance for our getting any relief from
present conditions. The theory that
all federal offices must be in one
building is wrong" ~
