Commonwealth authorities to use an

Papua or British New Guinea, some
parts of which have never been seen

The criticism of the Wailuku Times

by the facts. In that criticism Maui's
journalistic sucking gave it as its
opinion that the local chamber of
commerce was not Justified in taking
up the Brown case at all, and, If so,
the committee report adopted by it
bearing upon the case was improper.
We have refrained from saying a
great deal about the Brown case for
the reason that far too much person
al feeling has been aroused on Kauai
and other islands on account of it, and
newspaper comment near the center
Of the disturbance could have the eff.

been a regretable fire. We must at
this time take issue, however, with

er and take such action as may seem

Since then more than six months rave passed
The legislature is more than six months nearer The
factor of time has been largely eliminated.
The legal opinion referred to is that made public
at last nights hearing by Deputy City ATTORNEY

law the city cannot now bond itself for than

Last evenings public meeting at the Chamber OF
Commerce brought out valuable discussion. Both
sides of the bond Issue question were well set forth

next legislature is in session effort will be made
to increase the taxrate, at least temporarily Most
OF the discussion last night resolved itself into rea

SHIPPERS Seek
SUSPENSION OF
RATE INCREASE

although the transcontinental
railway hines are having prepared a
new tariff to comply with the recent
order Of the interstate commerce com
mission that rates On more than 100
articles Of schedule c commodities be
increased on shipments TO Pacific
coast terminals, the Portland Traffic
and Transportation Association has
applied to the commission TO suspend
the time Of the order taking effect,
which has been fixed at September
l." says the Portland Journal
Protests have already been made
by individual coast shippers against
making the commissions order eff
fectiVe at so early date, and 1t is
said that other traffic associations on
this coast will supplement the appli.
cation Of the Portland Shippers Asso-
cation for suspension of the pro-
posed tariff taking the place Of the
existing tariff which. was based on
competition of water route through
the Panama canal, which competition
has temporarily disappeared.
The chief objection is against the
carriers advancing coast rates to
meet rates to Spokane instead of re-
ducing the intermountain rates to
conform with coast terminal rates,
although, shippers who have con-
tracted for GOODS on existing rates
are object;ng to having to pay higher
rates for deliveries after September l
If the new tariff is not to be sus
pended.
Reliance is EIade by protestants on
the federal laws which declare that
railway fleight rates once reduced
cannot be increased except for rea.
sons other than the elimination OF
water route competition"
