often the direct cause of i'll health.

referendum vote on the question Of
a bond issue, no matter how small, .
complained d. l.. Conkling, city treas
urer, "but yet the governor and the
utilities commission propose TO give
away practically perpetual charter
worth many millions without even con.
sulting the people concerned, the resi-
dents of Honolulu. ..."..
THE whole proposal should be sub
mitted to the people by referendum.
It affects the city vitality and the peo-
pie should have an opportunity to ex-
press their preferences.
Another thing-what are the gross
receipts of the company so freely re-
ferred to? Do they consist of the in
come from passenger traffic only? Or
do they include the income from
freight traffic, from bond earnings,
and from all the other resources of the
company? II should be definitely
known what the city will realize from
the change before the new charter Is
approved. There should be a more
profound consideration of the issues
involved before the matter is sub
mitted to Congress.
City Control Desired.
Il believe that control of the COM
pany should rest in body closer to
the people than Congress. The board
of supervisors or the legislature
should be the body to say when the
franchise shall. be taken from the
company. No matter what the Of
lenses of the traction company might
be, it would take years to take its
franchise from ii, with control vested
solely in the national legislative body.
Control by the supervisors or by the
legislature would give the people OF
Honolulu a whip hand over the COM
pany. That is what is needed"
