HALTS FOR MORE
',CbMPLEIEP PLANS
Citizens Oppose Starting Work
With Only One Unit Under
Consideration

Opposition to proceeding with the
Waikiki reclamation project with the
so-called Unit No. portion outlined
by Charles R. Forbes and the public
works department or with any portion
until complete and careful survey of
the entire area has been made was the
chief feature of lengthy meeting in
the governors chamber at the capitol
this morning.
Walter F. Dillingham; led the plea
for comprehensive scheme and he
was seconded by Archie Young, John
Bowler, Judge w. J.. Stanley and w.
w. Chamberlain, all OF whom spoke
briefly on the salqesl
Dillingham's sfgument chung to the
point that the government by dam
ming ap Makiki and MRnoa streams
had been largely responsible for the
present condition of the Waikiki
swamps. He opposed making the pro-
perty owners pay for all of such a
project when the government has
turned on the hose" He emphasized
the need of a complete survey of the
whole area which exceeds by 100 per
cent ,he business district of Homo
lulu ...- =.
John Bowler voiced the same feeling
in stronger wor.Is. He said that even
now Ralakaua avenue is being put
through without thought of head or
tail, ''piece of damn rascality which
the property owners are paying for. :"
Forbes in the beginning of the meet,
ing outlined mis- reasons for drawing
up plans for the project. A letter from
Deputy Attorns General A. G. Smith
followed, giving the reasons for a
more comprehensive scheme than out.
lined n Forbes plans for one unit.
Governor Pinkham declared toward
the close of the meeting that he saw
no reason why, with the territory's S
big income and good financial stand
ing, it should not help out largely with
the Waikiki and other projects.
AS the matter now stands it seems
probable that nothing more will be
done under the Unit No. / plan, but
that scheme fer the whole will be
drawn up and probably presented at
the legislature two months hence.
Forbes declared after the meeting that
the plans he has drawn for single
unit are practically pau

LONDON, Eng, Dec. 11.-Premier
Lloyd Georges statement of the policy
which he, as the new prime minister
of Britain, will pursue will probably
be made in the house of commons on
Thursday
The premier has already sent let
ter: TO the members of the house de-
claring The predominant task of the
government is the vigorous prosecu-
ton of the war to triumphant con-
clusion. / FEEL confident that the
government can rely on your support
so long as it devotes its energies ef-
fectively to that end.
The policy of Premier Lloyd George
will be an aggressive one in regard to
the war, with every ounce of British
energy devoted to as early an attain
ment of victory as is possible, accord
ing to an article from the pen of Lord
Northcliffe, sent out by him as his
weekly despatch to the news agencies
represented by his string of publica-
tions.
"Eloyd-George's program will in
clude the arming of all British mer-
ehantmen against submarine attack
and the speeding up of the munition
plants, the recruiting stations, the
training camps, the navy yards and
the supply departments in prepara-
tion for the spring offensive.

There will be readjustment of
the German blockade, with the lines
drawn tighter and the restrictions
upon neutral trading more stringent.
Every effort will be made to in
crease the home production of the
food of the nation, lessening the de-
pendence upon imports, while all work
not material to the successful out
come OF the war will be placed under
the ban of the government. Luxuries
will be prohibited and there will be
instituted 'meatless days, in. order to
conserve the available supply and to
liberate more shipping for necessary

GOVERNOR CONFERS
WITH D. {. METzGER

Territorial Senator Delbert E. Metz
ger came to Honolulu from Hilo last
Saturday and has had conference
with Governor Pinkham, but on the
best authority it can be said that
there have been no developments in
the secretaryship situation Metzger
is not after the vacancy made by W..

friends, and ii is understood that no
recommendation has been made by
the governor. Neither is inclined to

that after conferences with the gov
