DID THE DRyS PUT
ONE OVER ON WINE
MANUFACTURES i /: !. HER +

That the Kaupakalua Wine & Liquor
Company and another large wine manu-
featuring company on Hawaii have been
legislated out of business, is the 4.
pressed opinion of County Attorney
elect +. K. Bcvins, of Maui, according
to the Maui News. A little twolint
amendment tackled onto the law under
which the wine companies have been do
ing business, which provides that the
amount of wine manufact ured shall not
exceed 500 gallons per year, apparently
does do the trick.
The kaupakaIua winery. has an out
put of some 10000 to $4,000 gallons per
annum. If now, as Mr.. Bevins holds,
the legislature has limited its output
to 800 gallons the company will have
no recourse but to suspend, unless It
can defeat the law in the coprtS.
Mr. Brvius had occasion to go into
the matter with some care in cUmu"r
ton with advising a client who wIshcd
to manufacture wine on small scale.
at certainly looks as though somebody
had turned pretty clever trick, Was
his comment on the matter.

SPINE BROKEN IN

In collision between an automobile

Mrs. Theodore T. Richards.
Mitamura was hurried to Queen s

TOWNSHIP AID
FOR FIREMEN
Bill to Permit Such Contributions
in Pennsylyania--Affects New
Hope and Lambertville.
TO HELP SUPPORT EQUIPMENT

A movement of special interest
to the fire companies of New Hope
and Lambertville, is now on foot in
Bucks county.
Henry James. Esq, of Doyles-
town, is preparing bill for intro
duction into the Pennsylvania
Legislature which purposes giving to
townships of the second class the
right to raise by taxation monies
for the support of fire companies.
At the present time only first
class townships, of which Bucks
county has none, can so appropriate
money.
While the borough of New Hope
can and does appropriate money
toward the support of the fire
equipment, the townships of Sole
bury. Buckingham and Upper Make
field, all in this section, cannot do
so, and yet they are dependent upon
the equipment from this borough.
or from Doylestown, or Wycombe
for their protection
The Bucks County Firemen's
Association, of which o. Meyer, Jr.,
of Southampton, is president, is
back of the movement. There are
a number of towns and villages
located wholly in townships that
cannot have fire protection except
through purely private aid.
Wycombe is one of these places,
the Lingohocking Fire Company be-
ing supported entirely by the
citizens.
Another interesting question that
will probably be raised, if the bill
becomes a law, is whether or not
compensation can be given the fire
companies of Lambertville, which
have frequently run to Bucks county
fires in the past.
Last September they went to the
Stacy S. johnson fire, near the Sole
bury meeting house, and the next
day to the Paxson fire at .Bucking-
ham, one in Solebury township and
the other in Buckingham. -
1t is very difficult to secure horses
for hauling heavy engines to coun-
try fires, and unless automobile
equipment can be maintained it is
practically impossible to answer
these calls.
Cheltenham township, Montgom-
cry county, gives about $4,000 per
year toward the support of local
and neighboring fire companies,
and this only necessitates an ad-
dition of one-tenth of one per cent
to the tax rate, and does away with
the necessity for the firemen to
solicit funds with which to main
tain their companies.
