POLL TAX FOR
WHITE PLAGUE
FIGHT UNLIKELY

Governor Pinknam will not urge the
additional poll tax Of 81 per person
for a special fund to fight tubercu-
osis. according TO an interview given
to the Star-Bulletin today. In refer
ence to the action Of the committee
on health of the house of representa-
tivcs the governor said:
Il suggested the extra poll tax as
means of starting an effective fight
on the Tavages Of tuberculosis. II
the legislature does not see fit to
prepare and introduce bill to carry
out that suggestion, the proposition
ends, as can do nothing further than
to make the suggestion.
The committee reported on the gov
ernors message relative to the pro-
posed tax for the tuberculosis fight
to the effect that it was deemed un-
wise to increase the poll tax at this
time and as no bill had been introy
duced to carry out the governors sugs
gestion, it was recommended that no
action be taken. The house adopted
the report.

DISCRIMINATORY
Start Movement to Protest to
Government Treaty Is
Violated

Charging that the Japanese Of HO.
in business and that the American
Japanese treaty Of 1911 would be VIC
lated by prohibiting Japanese from
selling liquor petition is being sent
from the Jap'nese Association of Ha-
waii to the japanese government.
The Hawaii Hochi, local japanese
daily. published translation of the
Ietition yesterday. The document was
signed by DR.. c. Negor, president of
the association. who is also editor OF
the Hawaii HOchi. According to the
Hochi the petition is being sent to
japan through the local Japanese con
sulate. The document says:
Honorable Makekau Of the house
of representatives Of Territory Of Ha-
waii, has presented a bill on the 18th
inst. regarding the license of saloon
business. The purpose of this bill is
to prohibit the liquor license commits
siOners from granting the saloon H.
cense to all persons who are not citi-
zens of the United States. tHOuse
Bill No. 332D The same was com
mitted for report to the house judi
Ciarv committee on the 11th inst.
In inspecting the existing Japanese
American treaty. which came into
force on and from the 18th July, 1911,
We find the following provision in
clause |, art. |, viz: The subjects
or citizens of one of the high con
tracing karties. snail have right free
ly to reside in any part Of the
of the other high contract
ing party. and shall enjoy the same
liberty to pursue wholesale
and retail business and to do
all acts and things necessary and in.
to all business with the sub
jects or citizens OF the other high
contracting party on equal terms and
conditions.
1t is plain that the Makekau bill
violates this provision Of the existing
American treaty. The mere
appearance of such bill gives a sense
of great insecurity to the men who
are in the business affected thereby.
Should it become a law. as it will in
due course of legislation unless saner
counsel prevail. the Japanese in these
islands will be deprived of the right
and opportunity Of a profitable sOurcel
of income, and this in. spite Of the
treaty provision guaranteeing them

SENATE DEBATES
HOUSE BILL ON
CHIROPRACTICS

House Bill 262 will be discussed by
the senate in committee of the whole
this afternoon. All persons interested
in the measure have been invited to
be present, and there promises to be
a lively debate on the question
of whether the upper house shall adopt
the report of its health committee
which recommends the passage of the
measure
The purpose of the bill is to amend
section 1917 of the revised laws Of
1915 by adding paragraph which pro.
Vfdes that until such a time as a chiro-
practic board of examiners is eStab.
lished in Hawaii, the treasurer may
grant licenses to practise chiropractics
upon the written recommendation OF
the board of health. The applicant
for a license. however, must first file
with the treasures a certified copy of a
diploma by legally chartered school
of chiropractics.
Argument against the passage of the
bill yesterday afternoon was that ii
would put stop to the practise OF
"lomilomi" and massage by many Ha-
waiians and Japanese. who have been
engaged In this business for years.
President Chillingworth said that he
believed the bill is a direct attack
against Christian Scientists and that
il the bill went through it would, by
implication. eliminate the practise Of
Christian Science in the territory.
