PERCENT OE AREA

WORKSAYS YOUNG
If More Than Half Of Road Sur
face is Being Fixed, Work
is Reconstruction

There is distinct difference be-
tween repairs, maintenance and re
construction in road work, and the
work that the city and county was do
ing on that portion of Queen street
between the Nuuanu stream and the
prison road was reconstruction, ac-
cording to ]. L. Young of the Lord
Young Engineering Company, who was
a Witness this morning in Circuit
Judge Stuart's court in the case of
Raymond C. Brown against the city
and county, the supervisorstand other
municipal officials, an injunction suit.
Mr.. Young was called as a witness
for the petitioner He said that he
had occasion to stop and examine the
work that was being done on Queen
street prior to the issuance of a tenn
porary injunction which restrained the
city and county from further proce-
dure.
From his experience as a civil en-
gineer and in road construction, Mr.
Young was asked by Attorney C. HI.
Olson, representing the petitioner, to
define repairs, maintenance and re-
construction. This he did as follows:
Maintenance Slight repairs or
patches.
Repairs less than SO per
cent of the surface of the road being
treated in order to restore it. This
passes beyond the maintenance stage
Reconstruction Where the portion
of the road treated is more than so
per cent of the entire surface"
Never Had Been Road.
Mr.. Young remarked somewhat sar-
castically that the portion of queen
street in question had never been
road since he had been In Honolulu
There is no appearance of road ever
having been there, he added
Asked as to his opinion of the char
acter of the work that was being done
by the city and county in July, he
said:
Il would call it permanent construc-
tion work"
This answer was stricken out, how
ever, upon the objection of counsel
for the respondents.
Mr.. Young explained that the road
was graded and rolled and then paved
with asphalt macadam to a thickness
of from 4 to s inches, and about 3
inches at the gutter line. He said,
by way of explanation, that water
bound macadam road would not bear
the traffic like a road bound with as
phalt, and that NATURALLY the method
of water-binding a road was now in
the discard.

HILO men Will
not MAKE TRIP
IOBIG SHOOT
No Members of National Guard
From Big Island Awarded
Places on Florida Team

None of the members of the Hilo
company Of the National Guard will
GO to Florida next month as members
of the Hawaii rifle team. This news,
which came as a distinct surprise to
everyone who has been following the
try-outs of the local militia rifiemen,
was received at National Guard head
quarters this morning.
A brief wireless from Lieut.-col. w.
r. Riley. team captain, who went to
Hilo to supervise the competition
there, reads as follows:
None Hilo men qualified rife
team.
Under the conditions of the try-outs,
five men from compaHy let Infan-
try, N. G. H.. stationed at Hilo, quail
fed to compete with the Oahu rifle
men for places on the team which
consists of IL shooting members and
three alternates. Originally the Hilo
men were ordered to Honolulu to fire,
so that they 1auld be tried under the
same cnnditi, as the local men.
Capt. ]. ii Eton. commanding the
Hilo comm put in an urgent re-
quest that his men be allowed to fire
en- their home range, stating that it
would be impossible fer them to make
the trip to Honolulu, and then, should
any Of them qualify, leave business
again for the seven weeks trip to
Florida. This request was finally
granted, two disinterested officers be-
ing sent from here to supervise the
competition which took place at Hilo
Saturday and yesterday.
The FIVE tail-end men on the provi-
sional team have been on the anxious
seat for the past Jew days, as the Hilo
range was known to be an excellent
one for shooting, while the Fort Shat
ter range, especially at 1000 yards, is
generally agreed to be one of the most
difficult in the country, on account OF
the tricky air currents.
AS the Hilo contingent made some
of the best scores in the regiment in
record practise this year, their fall
down is something of mystery to
the local rifiemen. Whether they
struck a bad day for shooting, or
whether it was case of ''buck fever"
won't be known until full details Of
the competition reach here tomorrow.

necessary connections.
The news is bitter disappointment.

who were to have made the trip. and
who have been working for six months

cavalry and one artillery team, but
this was later changed, and one com

Sub Committee of Five viii
Gather Freight nd Passen-
ger Statistics of Islands Cow
ering Period of Last 4 Years
SPEECH OF GOVERNOR
Is UP FOR CRITICISM
Bringing of Great Northern
Taken Up in Tentative Man
ler-Mclnerny Thinks the
Swift Liner is Too Big a Ship
for the Honolulu Coast Run

At the meeting this morning of the
committee of IS, appointed by z. l.
Spalding through the Chamber of Com
merce to investigate the alleged condi.
tions of congestion in passenger traf-
fic between here and the mainland, a
subcommittee was appointed by Chair
man l. Tenney Peck, to secure data
on passenger and freight traffic for a
period of four years past.
The committee was appointed fol-
lowing motion by A. l.. Castle, and
consists of five members, as follows;
Chairman, A. l.. Castle, w. II. Mc1n-
erny, r. G. Brown, H. L. Strange and
n. j. Lowrey. At a short meeting of
the subcommittee held Immediately
following the meeting of the Is, 1t was
decided to take up active work In the
investigation tomorrow morning.
No report will be handed back TO
the Chamber of Commerce by the gen.
eral committee until after the sub
committee has completed its investiga-
tions. General opinion seems to be
that this will require not less than
week.
In the general discussion which pre-
ceded the appointment Of the sub-com-
mittee. frequent slaps were taken at
the speech read by Governor Pinkham
in the meeting held by the Chamber
Of Commerce last week, in which large
lists Of empty berths we're mentioned
as available on al Of the liners leay-
ing Honolulu. The general opinion
seemed 70 be that this argument of
the governors had been decidedly mis-.
leading, and not truly representative
of the facts -
Maximum cspaclty Figures.
z. A. Berndk chairman Of the Promo
tion Committee. stated that he had had
occasion to take up the matter OF ac-
commodations and had found that the
maximum capacity for passengers
which the governor had quoted was
really the maximum as named by the
inspector of hulls and boilers for
steamships capacity. and not the rea-
sonable capacity at all.
THE fact that rooms have three
berths in each of them." said Mr.
Berndt. does not necessarily mean
that t1ese rooms can always be filled
to that capacity. o steamship leaves
the port with that complement, for 1t
Is never possible to divide the entire
passenger list up in that manner, and
the paper read by the governor is
therefore misleading"
"The governors figures mean moth
ing at all" said A. l. Castle. There
is no argument in the fact that certain
boats left at certain times without the
full complement of passengers, just be
cause Of the facts which Mr.. ,Berndt
has mentioned
Others we're of like opinion, and
felt that facts should be secured rath-
er than mere theories. @0ur inyesti-
