DISCUSS Value
OF PHOTOGRAPHY

Just how heavily the territory
should go into photographic work by
the appropriation Of money to that di-
vision was discussed pro and con at
meeting of the senate ways ana
means committee this morning
Senator Single took the stand that
much OF the work OF the division in
studying water questions could be
eliminated He thought there has
been too much theoretical work In
cut-of-the-way districts not likely to
be OF value for years.
Superintendent George X. harrison
argued that the work should be car.
ried cut on a general scale for pc.
Rod of Is years or so in order to de-
tefmine the water situation ON a
broad and true standard. One year
or two years was not enough. he ar
gued. Attorney General A. G. Smith
was with harrison on the value Of wa
ter study to the territory, especially
with reference to big water and land
cases.
Decision was finally deferred on the
amount Of appropriation awaiting an
estimate from Commissioner of Lands
B. G. Riyenburgh. newly appointed

NAVY OFFER TO
MOVE SHIPS had
''JOKERS' IN II
Washington viii Not Let Ger
man Vessels Have Pearl
Harbor;; Anchorage Unsafe

Under no circumstances will the
navy department allow the German
refugee merchant steamers to be
moofed in Pearl Harbof at present.
Washington and the commandment do
not consider the outer anchorage a
safe location for the refugee German
merchantmen.
With these restrictions the navy is
ready to help civil authorities.
This Is the gist of what Capt.
George r. Clark, commandant of the
Pearl Harbor nayal station, told Gov
ernor Lucius e. Pinkham and Chair
man Charles p Forbes OF the harbor
board at his conference with them
Thursday morning IN the executive
chamber.
The Star-Bhilesin learned these
facts today from a reliable and au-
thoritative source, although Chair.
man Forbes this morning refused to
say word when asked for a state
ment on the situation.
Capt. Clark received instructions on
Wednesday from Admiral William s.
Benson, chief Of naval operations,
navy department, Washington, d. G.
directing the commandant to assist
the civil authorities in moving the
refugee merchantmen to a safe place
tiackfeld Offer Not Accepted
The message contained, however,
the two restrictions mentioned at the
top Of this news story. which in eff
feet make II impossible for the board
of harbor commissioners to move the
Pommern and Setos anywhere but to
Rotten Row. This the board does not
show any inclination to do, nor has It
accepted the offer of H. Hackfeld &
Company, Ltd, the local agency for
the vessels. to Put in mooring doll
phins there IL the board will allow the
steamers to lie in the row free OF
charge.
Waiting for Mondays Developments
After what Capt. Clark told the
governor and the harbor board chair
man Thursday morning, the board de-
cided to do the only thing left to do
The situation today is at
q standstill and it is said that the ves-
sells win be permitted to remain
where they now are until after Con-
gress meets on Monday, when the de-
thel are expected to give
the navy department chance to take
over the ships in the name of the
United States, provided Congress
passes q resolution declaring that a
state OF war exists and has existed for
some time
setos Pays Halt Rates
1t was also learned today that the
5etos, which was moved last Satur-
lay from Pier 10 to a berth along
side the Pom,nern at Pier rs eva
side, is not getting free wharfage. |
Under harbor beard rules she must |
pay one cent q ton for every day she
IS contiguous to the Pommern. II
she occupied the wharf alone she |
would be charged two cents q ton
Is Is the Pommern. The saving to !.
her owners in her new berth is 50 per
cent, as she now pays 5000 day
against the oil rate at Pier 16 of

cred in Investigation

DR.. j. H. Raymond, cattle shipper Of
Maui, appeared before the senate ways
and means committee this morning in
a hearing over the territorial market
that sayored at times Of the dramatic
and the fiery
Raymond told the senators at the
close of the meeting, rising to con-
clude his argument. that they could
legislate as. they saw fit; they could
legislate the market out Of existence
and that he would still be able to- sell
his beef in. Honolulu He objected to
having the Raymond ranch brought iG
as argument, however.
The doctor led up to- his final state
ment with series Of questions direct
ed at Superintendent A. T. Longley
of the marketing division, which
brought from the superintendent
statements that business had in
creased more than 100 per cent since
meat from the Raymond ranch had
been assigned to the market, and that
the ranch should be kept on the list
for the best interests Of the small,
shipper as we'll.
Raymond said he well knows the
ranch is building up business that
will cut It's own throat making a
Frankenstein of itself as he put it. by
helping the rival producer to a better
trade.
"How about the price of beef to the
retailer who comes to your market
the laborer on the waterfront for In
stance?" Raymond asked, turning to
Longiey.
Longiey's answer was that the mar
ket sells cheaper by from one to five
cents q pound than other markets of
the city. He also stated, answering
q question from the doctor. that Tom,
Dick and Harry" among the small sell
ers are getting II cent for their meat
where they got cents before.
Raymond told at the beginning OF
how he had entered into trade with
the territorial division, knowing 1t VS.

of Superintendent Longley
He cited how Longley mas increased
