BOND ISSUE FOR
CITY HALL, ROAD
WORK, IS Plan
Continued rom page one)

put all the more money into the build
ing itself.
.'We should build a city hall costing
not less than $250,C00," he states.
There has been some advocacy of
putting the city hall on the Mahuka
site. but it seems to me that we can
do better by using the Gore site"
The procedure necessary to put the
bond issue before the people is sim
pie. The mayor said this morning
that if he and the eoard OF supervisors
shall after consideration decide that
the issue should be asked, proclama-
ton for a special election will be is
sued.
Under the present territorial law,
the city is authorized to issue county
or municipal bonds. The total of such
bonded Indebtedness which may be in.
Cured by any county shall not exceed
two and one-half per centum of the
assessed value of the property in such
county, as shown by the last previous
tax assessment, nor shall the amount
of such Indebtedness which may be in.
Cured in any one calendar year ex.
coed one-half of one per Centum of
such assessed value. II
With Honolulu's assessed valuation
at $90,000,00G, the city can issue bonds
UP to $2,250,O00, but in any one cal
endar year can issue bonds for not
more than $450,000. Inasmuch as the
city has not dollar of such bonded
Indebtedness now, the mayor believes
the financial strings imposed by law
will not prevent carrying out the plan
for an issue sufficient to look after
the belt roads and the city hall,
though the entire amount of indebted.
ness cannot be incurred at once.
Before reaching any decision, the
mayor expects that he and other city
officials will place the problem before
the people at series of public meet
ings. The Chamber of Commerce will
be asked to examine the financial sit
uation and see whether or not the
bond issue is justified. Other public
and semi-public organizations will be
similarly asked for opinion, and it is
probable that the mayor and others OF
the city officials will inaugurate more
or less of a public speaking campaign
even before the special election is au-
thorized, if it should be authorized.
The plan is to acquaint the voters
with the situation thoroughly so that
they can decide for themselves wheth-
er the municipal administration is JUS
tilted in proposing the bond issue.

Under section 2214 OF the revised
laws, 1915, If the board appropriates
money for the courts which is beyond
its income for that year, the entire
board is liable to go to Jail, under a
statute providing for a fine Of not
more than $1,000 for each member, or
Imprisonment for not more than one

.on the other hand, IL the courts go

easily remedy matters by repeating
the cash basis fund law, thus making
that money instantly available.
Il think the legislature could dig us
out of the trouble by amending the
tax laws and providing for increased
assessments or an increased share to
the city and county.
But as matters stand now, we can
call no more jcries, and the courts
cannot purchase any more supplies.
Salaries of the court officials are pro-
vided for by the general appropriation
bill"
Asked today II he' was considering
calling special session of the legis-

"As yet, this matter has not been
presented to me, and therefore have
no statement to make"
The circuit court judges have not
yet been officially notified of the ac-s
ton Of the supervisors. but it was ex-
pected that notice would be forthcom-
ing this afternoon. and that its receipt
would be followed by a meeting of the
judges to discuss the matter.
