The senate educational holdovei
committee, H. B. PenhallOw chairman,
presented its report to the upper house
today The feature OF the report is its
commentator of the present admin
+istration and the statement that q
quite general reorganization through
ont the department OF public instfuc,
tion has been made In the last two
years. chiefly the result of the severe
investigation conducted by the legis-
iature two years ago. s
Several glaring errors In the con-
duct OF the department have been
remedied. says the comElttee. One OF
the most important OF these Is met
by the contractsennploymen system.
inaugurated by Superintendent III. w.
Kinney. Teachers now have definite,
written understanding when they are
engaged In the schools and know ex
actly what to expect A somewhat
general revision OF the new vocational
system has also been effected.
Chairnlan Penhaliow reports that
the past defects have been so thor.
snghly corrected that the need Of an.
other special Investigation is deemed
unnecessary The other members Of
the senate holdover educational conn
mittee are Rice and Baker 6
The report says:
The committee has kept in touch
with the various changes which have
taken place in the department OF pub
lie instruction since the last session ot
the legislature, and believes that there
has been marked Improvement in the
administration of this department
Many OF the defects previously noticed
have been remedied. This iaeing .saps

need of d special Investigation was
not sufficient to warrant any financial

THE RECOMMENDATION contained in
the report OF the joint committee on
Of the 1913 legislature have
been carried out, and have been the
basis OF such reorganization OF the
department Of public instruction as
has taken place.
During the Investigation of the
joint committee. It wac felt that much
benefit to the Normal School could he
derived through an amalgamation with
the College OF Hawaii.
This is matter which has re-
ceived considerable attention. as the
quality and ability Of the teachers

This territory. AS q result of that in |
