Kuen has conducted an opium den
at Maunakea and Hotel streets, ac-

Detective John Woo, Korean inter
prefer. testified that he had. upon re.
quest of the Korean National Associa.
ton, warned Kuen to stop giving KO-
rean boys opium.
The police have adopted new
metho1 in an effort to stamp out the
opium evil. Instead OF charging de-
PENDANTS with having opium in pos
session.. which usually results in a
small fine, they book them as va
grants. AS mich as a year may be
given on this latter charge. Two
Chinese recently were given eight and
nine months, respectively, under this
method.
