SET ASIDE FOR
JlJNKET IS Plan
Legislators Think $50, 900 For
Congressional Visit Is
Not Needed

twenty-five thousand dollars is like
ly to be the appropriation favored by
the legislature for bringing big con-
gressional party to Hawaii at the close
of the present session of Congress.
Delegate kuhio, in letters to the
members of the legislature, suggested
that $50, 900 would be needed OF this
amount $4,000 was appropriated by
the last legislature but unused, 1t was
proposed to set aside $4,000 more.
However, the watchword economy"
is heard on all sides and most esti-
mates are going to be cut by the law
makers. Leaders say that $25,e00 is
all the territory should spend.
A resolution setting aside 100000
and an invitation to the national law
makers and other washington leaders
will be among the first matters
brought up in the local body. 1t is
expected that special invitation viii
be sent to the president Delegate Ku-
hio suggested that he be authorized to
make the selections for the general
party and it is quite likely that this
course will be followed

HAWN. DREDGING
Low BIDDER ON
WORK in HARBOR

The Hawaiian Dredging Co. proved
low bidder for the Honolulu harbor
additional dredging contract, when
proposals were opened this morning
at the U. S. engeering Office. Three
concerns were in the field for the
work, the figures per cubic yard being
as follows: Hawaiian Dredging Co..
IL As cents; Standard Dredging Co.,
"a "a cents; Lord-Young Engineering
Co, 27 cents.
The work includes the dredging of
the FEAST side OF the harbor to mimi
mum depth of S5 feet to the harbor
lines, as far seaward as beacon No. s.,
the removal of small shoal opposite
Fort street, and some work at the
north end of the harbor. The mini
mum amount is 100000 cubic yards,
which would make the value of the
contract $46,2S0.00. but there is a
chance that additional deepening will
be ordered, as about sos 900 is avail.
able for the work
Dredging the harbor right up to the
east lines will necessitate the removal
of several boat houses and buildings,
including the Myrtle Boat Club house
and Young Bros. boathouse.
Work will be started as soon as the
contract is approved in Washington.
