CHAMBER FAVORS
GOOD ROADBILS

Members of the chamber of com.
merce at meeting Tuesday afternoon
went on record fasoring big increase
In taxation for road purposes. Two
motions we're passed. one proposing a
specific tax to provide for a compre.
hensiye scheme for permanent roads
and the other that the chamber 60 on
record as favoring house bill 436,
which provides for an additional tax
for money to be spent in the district
of Honolulu for roads. The first car
ried unanimously but the second was
vigorously opposed and only passed by
a narrow margin The passage of the
bill will make the tax rate I'm Honolulu
1,S9 cents, it Is said. Later the matter
was referred to a special committee
tic determine how much money Is re-
quired-
The road question was brought to
the attention of the members by w. r..
harrington who declared that the
roads Of Honolulu needed TO be entire
ly reconstructed He Sad there Is not
a comprehensive Soad program before
any branch of the government today.
A lively discussion followed which
finally settled down to the question OF
how much money was needed. All ad-
mitted that money should be raised for
permanent roads.
Because there seemed to be consid-
cradle confusion in the minds of many
as to just how much money the city
and county sh ould have to spend. r.
G.. Atherton ended the discussion by
moving that both motions be referred
to COMMITTEES consisting of the chair
man of the road committee Of the
board of supervisors, a committee
from the Automobile Club, and the
legislative committee OF the chamber
Of commerce.

PROHIBITION Law
Businessmen Indorse Dry
Move But Want ii on Home.
Legislation, Not BY Congress

Hawaii's large business interests as
represented In the chamber Of COM
merce have gone on record for prohi-
bition by local initiative.
The resolution proposed by the Anti
asking congress to enact prohibition
law for Hawaii was opposed by the
chamber or commerce Wednesday
afternoon on the ground that as Ha-
wall is q self-governing territory e
would be a confession that the islands
cannot handle their own affairs. The
chamber was asked to ind0rse the
measure but voted it down by fairly
close vote and instead went on record
as fayoring local prohibition meas
ure.
David Cary Peters, president of the
Anti-Saloon League, appeared before
the chamber on behalf of the resolu-
ton. He said that the league had IN.
dorsed senate bill SO, which was the
substitute for the Chillingworth bill.
but that had been killed In the house
and another bill introduced by Repre-.
sentative Andrews which had been
ajuggied" to such an extent that it is
now absolutely worthless and could
not be enforced even If it did pass.
He then read the resolution and asked
that 1t be approved.
The opposition to the resolution was
lead by W. o. Smith,
Il deplore the idea of our going to
congress and asking it to pass a law
after it has made the islands self
governing territory" he said 1T would
be step backward and should never
be done. II would simply be telling
congress that we cannot govern our.
selves. There is not state in the
Union which would think of such a
thing. II is confession of weakness.
II we start running to congress when.
ever we need help can see nothing
but military commission for u.s. We
have demonstrated our ability to gov
ern ourselves and on the whole the
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-04-19

laws have been wholesome The fed
eral government recognizes this and
approves our laws"
George w. Paty,. secretary of the
league, said that congress had enacted
prohibition law for the District Of
Columbia and Alaska and Mr.. Smith
replied that Hawaii and the District
OF Columbia could not be compared.
L. T.. Peck and z. F. Bishop also
spoke, backing, in effect, the conten-
ton of Mr.. Smith.
Mr.. Peters then told the chamber
that the house had killed bill 80 be
cause, under the Organic Act, Il did
not believe it had the authority to
pass il.
The bill was drawn up by the best
lawyers In the territory" Mr.. Peters
said. and was absolutely legal, but
II the legislature refuses to act where
shall we go7'
w. r. Harrington suggested that con.
gress be asked to give the territory
power TO pass its own prohibition law
which would mean q plebiscfte.
To bring the discussion TO q head.
Frank c. Atherton moved that the
resolution be approved. Following its
defeat, he then moved that the cham
Der go on record as favoring local
prohibition law, which was carried
with only one dissenting vote.
