new BUILDING
FOR OFFICES NAY
BE CUT FROM BILL

Another item in the loan fund bill
that faces deletion is the $350,000 ap-
preparation for a new territorial office
building at Honolulu.
The finance committee of the house
now has this item under consideration,
the reasons for a possible deletion be-
ing rather general opinion that
Honolulu, before erecting a new terri
torial building, should wait until the
federal building is begun so that tho
style of architecture might be fol.
lowed out in the proposed new struc-
ture. The plan now is to erect the
proposed territorial building on the
vacant lot waikiki of the judiciary
building. .-..
As announced in the Star-Bulletin
yesterday, the finance committee has
been considering inserting an item in
the bin for the acquisition of Atkin-
son, Pauoa and Kaimuki parks, and
the figure for this property has been
fixed at approximately $4,000.
The committee expects to report out
en- the bill tomorrow.

PROHIBITION BILL !.
IS NOW SUGGESTED
Minority Committee Report
Seeks to. Combine House .
and Senate Bills

.Jenators Castle and Coney, mem
bers CT the judiciary committee, t.
day submitted to the senate their
minority report on Representative An
drews' plebiscite BILL recommending
that the bill be accepted including
the first 10 sections of Senate Bill 81,
the prohibition by plebiscite measure.
The minority of the committee
feels that the senate. having already
gone on record as being in favor Of
prohibition plebiscite, 1t would now
be inconsistent for it to table a bill
providing for such pleb:scite, says
the report.
AT the time OF the, passage of sen
ate bill 80, President ChillingwOrtns
bill, both sides had practically agreed
upon submitting the question Of pro-
hibition to the people. The house. by
passing the bill now before the Cufu-
mittee, agreed on the proposition of a
plebiscite but did not agree that the
bill as passed by the senate was In
correct form. The Proposition OF the
house Is first to have the plebiscite
and then compel the governor to call
a special session of the legislature
absolutely prohibiting the importation
and sale Of liquors in the territory Of
Hawaii. ..s
House Bill Is Incomplete
The minority feels that the bill as
passed by the house is incomplete IN
that II does not attempt to place be-
fore the people squarely the question
of law they are voting on. ,.- =
The minority therefore, proposes to
submit to the people the provisions
set forth in senate bill 33, which is
the proposed prohibition law, but Is
willing to agree with the house that IL
for any reason the act should be held
invalid. provided the piebiscite Is in
fayor of prohibition, then the govern.
a special session Of the Legislature to
enact the 4aHwhich was passed at the
piebiscite vote. . =
The only possible objection Is that
the governor cannot be compelled to
call u special session, which Is true;
but 10 the goFerfiof approves Of the
bin passed by this legislature, II will

Several Aniettdmsnts Presented
Various amendments to cover the
proposals with which the report is
prefaced are then submitted in the
dochment The amended title pro.
posed by the minority follows:
An act to provide for the prohibit
ton of the iriipottation of intoxicating
liquors into athe territory OF Hawaii
and to prohibit the manufacture or
sale OF such liquors therein, except
under certain conditions, calling for

Ing prohibition throughout the terri

TO
LEGISLATORS To
BE BIG AFFAIR

Special invitation to the general pub
lie to the reception and dance IN
honor of the legislators at the armory
On Saturday evening is extended by
Gov. Pinkham. Since the time between
the determination to hold the recep-
ton and its date is short the governor
has asked the press to emphasize this
special but general Invitation.
II has been the custom for the gov
ernor to hold a reception for the legis-
lators toward the close of the biennial
sessions to give the people an oppor.
tunity to meet those who have been
making laws for them. II has been
uncertain whether such reception
would be held this year and 1t was
rot finally determined to do so until
last Sunday. This occasioned a delay
in the extending Of invitations. II.
The session of the legislature will
end next Wednesday and as most of
these legislators, who reside on othsr
islands, will then hurry back to thei
homes there will be little opportunity
for citizens to meet them between now
and then. II is to provide such oppor-
tunity to the largest possible number
that the governor tenders this affair
to the legislature. .<.-..
Not only will the legislators be pres
ent at the reception but so, also, will
