VISIT TO Hawaii
BY congressman
Will BE IN MAY
Present Plans are for Officials
to Leave Washington In
Latter Part of April

The party of congressional visitors
from Washington is expected to leave
the national capitol about the third
week in April and arrive at Honolulu
early in May. 1t probably will be the
largest delegation of distinguished
guests the territory has ever enter
tanned.
Such is the information received
from Rev. s.. L. Desha. senator from
Hilo, from his son, Stephen l.. Desha,
Jr., this morning. The letter was
written February "a. just about the
time the $4,000 appropriation for en-
tertaining the official visitors was I'M
der consideration in the local legisla-
ture.
/ Stephen, Jr., writes that his brother
Jack, Delegate Kalanianaole's secre-
tary, was busily engaged with Kuhio
in getting the party together at that
time. He wrote they expected to sail
the third week in April so 1t is un-
derstood the journey will be by. way
OF the Panama canal, and that it will
be at least three weeks later that the
party will arrive here. The hope is
expressed by many of the solons that
an earlier start can be arranged, SO
the visitors will reach Honolulu before
the territorial lawmaking body has
concluded its sessions.
1t is reported that Delegate Kalania-
naole left Washington several days
ago and is probably at San Francis
co. He is known to have written
friends here that he intends remain
ing in the Coast city for possibly two
weeks but should reach home before
the end of the present month.
