CHARTER SESSION
TONIGHT OPEN TO
ALL, SAYS WILDER

~ ? 49,.
Tonight the chamber Of Commerce
as whole + 70 go before the Oahu
delegation in the hOuse of represen-
tatives TO show why the amendments
to the chartef. as proposed By them.
should be passed.
The hearing was to have been held
last Monday but due to the rain it was
postponed until tonight.
A large delegation from the cham
Der Is expected to be present as prac-
tically every member promised to be
present last Monday and many have
reiterated their promise today.
Chances Grow Brighter
That the movement to have a short
ballot form of government, which Is
embodied in these amendments. is
gaining ground IS the belief of Emil
Berndt. "A number of things have
happened during the past few days
which make me believe that the
amendments have now better chance
to pass than they ever had" he said
today.
8erudt also pcinled out that the
adoption Of these amendments was not
chamber of commerce affair alone
but a community affair and that
everyone who is interested in their
passage should be present tonight
II Is also expected that the conYen-
ton charter hackers will be out In
force to argue their nanse.
There is to be present large num-
Der Of KakaasSO residents. Whether
the longshoremen will carry out their
program to march to the capitol this
evening was not certain this morning
although It is believed that no special
demonstration viii be undertaken.
No favoritism will be shown at the
public hearing tonight on the city
charter bill. declared Representative
G.. p. Wilder, chairman Of the Oahu
decoration OF the house, which has
had the measure under consideration
since IFS introduction.
every person desiring to talk on
the charter, whether for or against II.
viii be given a chance to be heard.
says the chairman
The hearing will be held In the hall
or representatives, Capitol building,
and will be called to order promptly
at 7:30 o'clock. Chairman Wilder viii
preside.
In support OF the amendments pro-
posed by the Chamber Of Commerce,
Ii Is understood that Ex-Governor
Walter r. Frear, Attorney William L.
Whitney and Attorney William I.
Rawlins will be the principal speakers
for the civic body. Members Of the
~Committee of 100," the fighting
phalanx. OF the chamber, presumably
win attend the meeting in large num-
bers. as they have been urged to be
present
II is also expected that few hun
dred hawaiian stevedores win be pre-.
sent Members OF certain Hawaiian
Republican clubs already have voiced
q protest against charter that would
take from the voters the power of
electing the heads OF the city depart
mcHts. Il is on this point that the
stevedorts undoubtedly win ask to be
heard tonight
Tonight's meeting proDably viii be
the last public hearing on the charter.
The Oahu delegation has completed
its work of going over the bill section
by section. and the measure now is
in the hands of revision committee.
What changes, IL any. are to be
made in the charter bill as it now
stands will be determined by to-
nights hearing. say members of the
