ATTORNEY BRINGS
SUIT FOR ISLANDER

T. Kaneko, who is known as the
editor and proprietor of the recently
revived Mani Shimbun, has been sued
in the second circuit. court for $40, O0J
damages for SANDER by Attorney Eu'
gene Murphy. Murphy alleges in his
complaint that the Maui Shimbun pub.
lished an article recently which at
tackled his good name and professional
reputation in a manner that nothing
less than $4,000 can assuage. ~
Editor Kaneko's stumbling block
was the story published in the Maui
News two weeks ago concerning the
legal mixup over the ownership Of a
fshpond lease on Molokai. Murphy
in the interest of his client, Japa.
nese, brought suit against the agents
of another Japanese, who had pur.
chased the lease at sheritf's sale, for
damages on the ground that in the
sale of the pond the fish In it had not
been included. An English translation
of tho Shimbun s article on the sab'
iect indicates that the editor didn Z
stop with translating the Maui News
story, but took occasion to condemn
Murphy in no uncertain terms and to
warn all Japanese against having deal
ings with him.
The article then naively' states that
the Murphy in question is the same
person who recently filed an attachment
on some piece Of printing machinery in
the Shimbun office on account of an
alleged debt.
