DRYDILL DRIER
ISJARRETT Plan

j. = r
That there win be opposition in Tho
house to one or more OF the provisions
in senate bin 33, which gives the vot
crs the. opportunity to decide for on
against prohibition AT q plebiscfte, be
came apparent today.
Representative j. X. Jarrett is con.
sidering an amendment to wipe out
the section which provides that a
stated amount of booze may be dis.
pensed by a liquor agent for medical
and other purposes. and to further
provide that the measure read bone
dry"
BY inserting the bone-dry provision
IN the measure the voters win have
q chance to decide whether they want
strict prohibition or whether they
want the islands vet, says Jarrett.
as the bin now reads, we are simply
beating about the bush and are not
giving the voters opportunity to show
what they really want Let us put a
real prohibition bill before them.
Jarrett is considering other amend
ments but viii not discuss them until
tho Judiciary committee OF the house
has reported on the legality OF the bin.
Jarrett is inclined to question the
right of the legislature TO put the
question or prohibition Co the voters
at plebiscite without first securing
the consent of Congress
4 believe we must secure this con.
sent. says Jarrett. Eve cant amend

Fish Protection Wins Out
+ Representative Wilder's three bills
for the protection of food fish and
shell fish won out in the house today,
one passing third reading and two
passing second reading by the adop-
ton of the majority reports of the
committee on agriculture. House bill
No. %, which provides for the pro-
lection of food fish by limiting the
mesh of nets to one and one-half In.
ches, passed third reading In spite of
opposition by representatives who de-
clared this would work hardship on
the Hawaiians. The other bills, one
prohibiting the taking of female lob
sters, crawfish or crabs while with
egg, and the other providing a close
season for amaama, or mullet, rode
through the storm of protest that
arose from some of the Hawaiian
members of the house. These two
bills will be taken up on Monday for
third reading.
The following bills we're introduced
in the house today:
..1 House alIl 234
