TO MEET
|. CONTINGENCIES
MAY BE PROVIDED

President ChiIlingworth OF the sen
ate seems TO voice the opinion OF a
majority OF the upper house members
today when he declared himself in
favor OF retaining the governors con-
tingent fund.
Chfllingworth believes that some
substitute for the fund will be forth
coming, even though the house may
refuse 70 allow It on its old basis. He
suggests that maybe an agreement
whereby the expenditure will be In
the hands Of the chairman OF each
finance committee Of the two houses,
will be reached.
ceen1s Fund Necessary
Il have not studied the resolution
debated yesterday" said Chilling
worth, "but ! am Of the opinion that
a contingent fund n necessary.
Here we are practically in state
OF war and we do not know what
crisis may arise where we may need
the money Immediately. II the money
is not provided for II means we must
have special session Of the legisla-
ture 70 meet the need
The president also points to the
always present possibility of epidem-
ic OF some kind, when sudden need
for funds would exist. 1t would be a
case Of where the business commune
~ would be ASKED 70 raise the money.
he says.
{ Though businessmen of Honolulu
have always given willingly in such
cases." he continues there is a ques-
tion In my mind whether they would
do so in this case where the legisla.
ture deliberately deletes the coutin.
