EDITOR THANKFUL
T0FRAM PULVER
PERFORMED HERCULEAN
TASK SPLENDIDLY.
Best Sub Labor Editor in America
and Performed Without Leaving
a Single Libel Suit to Deplete
The Bulletins Treasury.

The Bulletin has established a high
standard for news service and typo
graphical appearance. When the edi
tor was called by the governor to
serve on a commission to go to Wash
ington he looked over the field for 4
sub" who could fill the bill and keep
UP the pace Frank J. Pulver. /. T. U.
representative and a linotype operator
on the Post was chosen for the job.
How well he performed every reader
of The Bulletin knows, and the editor
takes this opportunity of thus eN-
pressing thankful appreciation for
services ably rendered.
But readers of The Bulletin do not
know that Pulver also did treble work
while on the editors desk. 1t was
up to him TO complete the last five
sections of the big Convention Num-
ber in addition to the regular work.
This he did equally as well, and thus
has a big share of the honor which
comes in the production of the greatest
and best edition of labor paper in
all time.
Frank J. Pulver is genuine hero
when it comes to accomplishing the
almost impossible in newspaper work.
and can grind out good copy in a way
that keeps the linotype operators and
makeups in good humor.
The Bulletin editor was called away
hurriedly and had little chance to
coach Pulver as to the style or policy.
but Frank is faithful reader of the
paper. and made friends for The Bull
letin. Again we want to publicly
thank him for his splendid work as
the best labor sub editor in America.

to be present.
President Knollman read his re-
port, and recommended, among other
things, that in the future the State
Council pay the railroad fare of all
delegates attending annual meetings.
This, later, was adopted. He also rec
commended that the first and second
vice presidents be made members of
the executive board. The recommen-
dation was adopted. and hereafter the
board will consist of seven members,
with the president and secretary

follows:
President knollmau's Report.
We come together at this time to
consider and discuss such ideas and
conditions that may be of interest and
tend to promote the welfare of our
organization. l trust the delegates
will weigh each question carefully and
not hesitate to express their honest
convictions. The worst that could
happen to this council is for the dele
gates to become apathetic and permit
this body to lapse into n one-man
machine. After the vote is taken let
the majority rule and each delegate re
turn to his home with the comfort
and knowledge we did our best.

We're responded to by college pro-
fcssor, prominent local men and visit

GALLAGHER BACKS
BREAKWATERFOR
NAWILIWILI BAY
Indications on Garden Island
That Citizens Will Act in
Unity on Harbor Project
(By a staff eorrespondent)

In a speech to the people of Kauai
Wednesday afternoon at Niumalu
Representative Thomas Gallagher Of
Illinois, member of the rivers and
harbors committee of the house,
pledged his support to the Kauai
breakwater project at Nawiliwili.
Representative Gallagher's pledge
received the applause of Kauai peo-
pie, represented as the island was by
people of every district. Like all the
other projects they undertake on the
Garden Island, this one bears the mark
of unity. Port Allen, it appears, may
be abandoned as a prospective break.
water site and concentration is made
on Nawiliwili landing. T..
The only way to get this project"
said Congressman Gallagher, is to
work for it, and if it is worth having
it is worth working for. / believe it
IS needed, and am going to work for
it with you.
Il understand that there were
prayers said on board the Kilauea
coming over" humorously remarked
the speaker, that Nawiliwili landing
would be SO rough that we would all
get sick. We found a mill pond in,
stead. but still | believe you need the
breakwater."
Mr.. Gallagher said he thought it
quite likely that enough of an appro-
priation could be put into the new
bill this coming session to get start,
and a start was essential above all
things. in federal projects of this kind.
He did not think that the necessary
war funds need interfere with such an
appropriation. ~
Other members of the congressional
party coming over on the boat Wednes-
day night indicated that they thought
it might be difficult on account of the
war to get the project at this time
Dredging Costly 81
Among the developments from
study Of the project made on the site
at Nawiliwili was to impress upon
many of the local men that it is the
dredging rather than the breakwater
that will require the major portion of
the appropriation. The costs are est.
mated at about 100000 and 100000
respectively. |
The breakwater proposed is to con-
siCt of a rubble mound with a crown
Is feet in width and II feet above
mean low water, the slopes being III

harbor side. General construction
would be similar to that on the Hilo |
and Kahului projects After the break |
water has been finished it is proposed /!
to dredge to a depth of 80 feet.
The proposed breakwater will af- /

suction dredge, thus differing greatly
from most of the work in Hawaiian
harbors.
Directly tributary to this port are
Lihue, Hanamaulu and Grove Farm
plantations, while the plantations of
the Makee Sugar Co. and Koloa Sugar
Co. may also be regarded as in the
immediate zone. Other plantations
will probably be connected with the
port by rail il shipping facilities are
provided, it is said.

any attempt to import Chinese in
large numbers must have the consent
of the administration at Washington
before becoming effective.
The annual Farmers Congress OF
the Philippines recently voted to fav-
or Asiatic immigration. This means i'm
portation of Chinese since they are
the only laborers available. Combating
this movement on the part of the far
mers, representatives of organized
labor are preparing to make strong
fight in the insular legislature against
letting down the bars to the Chinese.

ford complete protection from storms
in all directions and will also shut out
the long, heavy swells due to the
northeast trades which prevail during
the greater part of the year. H..
Material to be dredged consists al
most entirely of sand. Some coral
was found by the engineers near the
mouth OF the entrance channel, but
this was in thin sheets superimposed
on sand, which simpIifies it's removal.
Two small streams enter the harbor,
but the water which would normally
flow in them is conserved to such

degree that they now carry little water
and practically no sediment is
brought down. .....-...
During heavy storms the sand bar at
the mouth of the Huleia river is cut
out and washed seward, but the wave
action in the bay soon throws it up
again. The result of the breakwater
will be to still the wave action so that
the bar will not be rebuilt, or at least
will be rebuilt very slowly after being
washed out.
The nature of the material is all
such that it can be removed with a
