IinquenCy of Girls

Representative d. NJ. Kupihea. the
lone Democratic member OF the house,
announced this morning that he will
ask for a legislative investigation Of
the recent action of Circuit Judge Ash
ford in blaming him for the delin-
quency of his daughter and niece.
AS. published in the Star-Bulletin
several days ago, the judge, in sus-
pending sentence on two soldiers
found in company with the girls, Sc
verely condemned .Kupihea, though
not mentioning him by name, saying
that he had so conducted his home
as to make it virtually a disorderly
house and charging, in effect, that the
girls, one daughter and the other a
niece of Kupihea, went astray because
of the surroundings encouraged by
Kupihea. -
!: Il want to deny everything the
Judge said. am going to ask for a
Legislative. investigation, said Kupi-
llea today. THE facts are not truly
set forth My daughter is not staying
at my own home but at a house in
which have half.interestl and my
sister the other half. My daughter was
disobedient and fired her out. The
house where the trouble took place. is
separate from my own home.
+ ''As' to the charges that l am run
ming a disorderly house, it is untrue.

Hawaiian delieacies for luaus but do
not give many of them. 1t is none of
