MONEY NOT ENOUGH
FOR KAL|HI WORK
Appropriation Of 100000 Would
But Start 1t Say Engineers

No information has been received by
the United States engineers relative to
the inclusion of 100000 for the Kalihi
Improvement, in the budget of the
river and harbors of the committee of
the house of representatives, reported
in yesterday mornings dispatches. If
this appropriation were made, it merely
would start the work.
The bill introduced by Delegate Ka,
lapianaole, December II, appropriated
100000 for the work, in accordance
with the report of house document No.
392, with the added provision that the
secretary of war might enter into con.
tracts for material or work necessa ry
to complete the extension, to be paid
for as appropriations were made, not to
exceed $4,000, exclusive of the
100000 appropriation.
This work was recommended by the
United States engineers. The. bill did
not get beyond the river and harbors
committee last year. That the com
mitteo has made an appropriation, even
though only half what Delegate Ka-
lanianaole asked, is regarded as an In.
dication that the house will act favor
ably and that the work may begin
soon.

however, he said, that the plan of as.
sessment be modified somcw hat, so rs
% make assessments for the work
graduated Instead of by zones. He
Thought this no more than fair, al
