WHY GILMORE WAS MADE
 COMMIT TEEMAN

SEATTLE, June s. - Republican politicians were surprised today to find that William A. Gilmore. instead Of Judge C. n. Murane. had been made national committeeman for Alaska, succeeding Louis P. Shackleford, of Juneau, who has been committeeman for the last eight years. says the Ss- attle Times. It was generally under stood Shackleford was to retire. but as Judge Murane had been endorsed for committeeman by the Alaska Re publican convention he was expected to receive the job. (Gilmore has sue ceeded w. s. Bayless.)
 As the situation is interpreted here, it is believed that Judge Murane, now resident of Juneau, will seek re- appointment as federal court judge in the event of Republican national vic tory. It is believed Murane decided that his chances for appointment are brighter if he holds no political posi- tion, and that he consented to the change in the program. He is in Chi cago, and before the Alaska delega' tion left there 1t was in perfect ac' cord, so whatever has occurred has happened with Muranes knowledge, and probably with his consent.

JAPANESE TURN
COLD SHOULDER
To GALA Event?
Not Interested in Carnival Be-
cause Governor is Anti
Japanese, Says Shinpo

Japanese people as a whole are not
! taking much interest In the plans for
the Carnival this year At a meeting
OF the committee for the lantern pa
rade held last evening, there was not
quorum and consequently the mem
bers present adjourned until some fu.
ture date.
In an editorial this morning the Ha.
Wai Shinpo states that the Japanese
should net be willing to cooperate
while Governor Lucius E. Pinkham is
at the head of things, as he has shown
en- a number of occasions that his
feelings were anti-Japanese. The Ha-
wall Shinpo states that the people
should know the real reason for the
hesitation On the part of the Japanese
people to participate in the coming
Carnival
The editorial states: I'VE have at.
tended the Carnival for many years,
and the Japanese people have worked
to make it success Our wish is to
help again this year, but most of the
Japanese do not wish to do so under
the existing conditions. They have a
reason for their feeling in this matter.
The reason why many of the Jap
anese do not wish to help with the
Carnival is because Governor Pink.
ham has not displayed friendly at,
titude toward the Japanese. 1t is the
opinion that the people living in Ha-
vail should cooperate to work for the
welfare of all races. The Japanese
idea is that the executive has not
shown justice toward our people.
Should we participate in the Car.
nival our hearts would not be with
the spirit of the occasion. This would
not be the proper spirit that should
&C with the Carnival. If the Japanese
participate in the Carnival, commit.
tee of Japanese people should tell the
Carnival committee the reason for the
hesitation, so they may know that the
hearts of the Japanese are not pleas
ed at the anti-Japanese feeling dis.
played by the chief executive.

Mayor Lane denies emphatically
that the city is using so cents in

the grand jury which was published
yesterday in the Star Bulletin. Fur
Their than this the mayor will not COM
init himself upon the question as he
says he wants to look into the matter

Robert w. Single, chairman of the

about entering into a detailed state

ing that as soon as the difficulties of
the present budget are settled, he will
make a statement in regard to the

Single comments further on the
report of the grand jury dealing with
the rough roads off Kualoa point.
This, he says, is where the city is put

base, and is naturally rough at pres
emit
Good Road Not Mentioned.
II is queer" muses. the mayor, that
the grand jury did not mention the
four and a half miles of good road on
the other side of Hauula which we
recently built.
"We know that Kualoa is rough, but
are trying our best to remedy the con-
dition that exists there, as may be
seen from our late appropriation. We
are spending $4,000 month now TO
put IL in order.
when completed the road will be
as good as any in the city," says the
mayor. I'VE are resurfacing the ia
nous belt road that cost $4,000 and
was such failure We have to have
overhead expenses, but / surely deny
that we spend SO cents this way for
every dollar
People tell us that we should close
the city quarry for the same reason,
but the cost of delivering the quarry |
rock is but $125 a cubic yard, which
is cheaper than we could purchase it.
Furthermore If we abandoned the |
quarry, rock would jump sky high |
in a short while owing to the lack OF

Even with some $4,000 or $1,000 of
