The next two years show a decrease
in the valuation Of buildings erected
but a marked increase in the num-
Der of permits, although 1914 was less
than 1913. In 1915 there was an in
crease both in permits and valuation
over the previous year, and 1915
nearly equaled the 1912 record for
valuation and the number of permits
was almost double. So far this year..
taking the average of the first five
months, the total for the entire year
will probably be slightly less than
last The reason for this is the war
crisis. e
Previous to 1912 building was not
extensive, but that year, the largest
in point of valuation which Honolulu
has ever seen, ushered in new build
