LEGAL OPINION
ON PR0VEMENT OF
iQUEEN EMMA PARK

IL legal opinion sanctions the pro-
ject the board of supervisors may
give the Daughters of Hawaii permits
sion to improve Queen Emma park
and the old home of the former ruler
in Nuuanu valley and make arrange
ments whereby the Daughters may be
protected against the action of incom-
ing boards. This is the statement
made by Supervisor Ben Hollinger,
who favors the improvement plan and
believes that the mayor and board
will cooperate in the scheme.
Providing the necessary permission
is secured the Daughters plan to not
only improve the home but to fit it
up with as much Queen Emma furni-
ture as may be secured, thus convert
ing it into place which would be of
real interest to tourists. The proceeds
from the sale of tea and cakes in the
afternoon would meet the expense of
maintenance and improvements, they
