''why Its worse than crime a. mako
2 statement like that, = laughed White

grand jnry's charge, 8 foolishncss,
pure and undecided. / cannot imagine
where on earth the gentlemen Of tho
grand jury got that idea. The only
figures they had so far as l know i
gave them myself.
Gave Coon Figures
! Some time ago w. j. Coon, chair
man Of the committee appointed to in
vestigate the roads OF the county came
TO me and asked mo For data upon
which to formulate his report. / gave
him my reports covering the period
from January /, 1918, to December 81,
l914--two years, and statements Gov.
ering,, more or less approximately, the
period from January, 1918, until May
30, 1918, two years and Ave months.
Now I know what those figures
were. i have them on my desk in my
Office and, by no stretch OF the most
hectic imagination could they be made
to bear ont the'statement OF the gentle.
men OF the grand jury. Here for in
stance is sample statement for
March, 1918. II Is typical Of all Of
the rest Of the period mentioned, It
shows that in March. we snent total
Of $l5,57O on road work. This was d.
vided as follows: Office expenses, $942;
stables, 1915. quarry, 1914, cleaning
streets, $l646; sprinkling streets, $66f;
repairs to equipment, 1924. This
amounts to @8144 The balance Of the
amount expended, $7426, was expended
on road work.
Only Overhead Charge
Now Of this $s144 Il is only fair TO
say that the stable cost, $2757. was
charged on TO street work. This is Az.
ured On basis Of SO much per animal
per day. The same is true Of the QUAR-.
fy charge, $874. for the rock taken from
the quarry went into street repairs and
was charged against the job at cost
price.
"Sifting 1t down then the onlr real,
unquestioned overhead charge is that
for Office expenses, SOAP; and possibly
that for repairs to equipment, $1264.
That Is . long way from eighty cents

on which ] suppose that the grand jury
bases its charge that. and similar
sums in other months Of the period
and, it is still long way from eighty
cents on the dollar. L figure il ut but
a little more than fifty per cent. -
However, give, the devil his due.
There has been money wasted in the
street and road work of the COUNT,
doubtless, but certainly the statement
of the jurymen that we were expend.

nothing but the inocuous vaporings of

trict court OF Hawaii.
Passports are absolutely necessary TO
gain entrance TO any Of the European
countries and these can be obtained
here only through the Office of the clerl,

Of his visit Mt each point, Persons de-
string TO proceed to any of these coun-
tries are advised TO obtain authentic
information from diplomatic or consular
representatives here Before leaving the
United States. The State Department
has advised Clerk Davis as follows.
In view Of the regulations now in
force In European countries II is adyis-
able that. wives, children over 8 years
OF age, and servants should have sep
arate passports, applied for in the same
way as a passport for the head Of the

American citizens going directly to
France from the United states are re-
quired TO bear passports visaed by
French diplomatic or consular officers
in the United States An application
for visa should be made to the French
consulate In this country within the ju-
risdiction OF which the applicant re-
sides. The application should be made
at least three days before il is necessary
to obtain the visa. An American citi-t
zen who does not 10 directly from. this
country TO France, but sojourns in some
other foreign country before visiting
France, should inquire of the American
or French diplomatic representatives in
snch foreign country concerning the
srecial -ormalities which Il will be nee
essary for him to fulfill before entering
French territory.
"All persons entering the United
Kingdom are required TO register with
the appropriate local authorities within
20 days after arrival.
THE department, has also been in
formed that rigid reStrictions have been
placed upon all travel between England
