Maui's New Judge
Formally Seated
Neat Little Ceremony, In Which
Speeches Of Welcome Are
Made And Responded To

Hon. Leslie l.. Burr, the newly ap-
pointed judge of this circuit, arrived
in Wailuku on Tuesday and registered
at the Maui Hotel, which will be his
home indefinitely. Members of the
local bar had planned to meet him in
a body and give him a legal glad
hand" to Maui, but owing to the un-
certainties of his time of arrival, and
place of arrival, the plan in it's COM
pleteness could not be carried out.
At 2 o'clock that afternoon the new
judge formally assumed charge of the
court. In the court room at the time
were Attorneys Case, BeVins, g Hckett,
Vincent, Sheriff Crowell, other ofiici-
ais and a considerable audience.
When the judge took his seat he
requested Clerk Linton to read the
cabled order of his appointment and
the oath of office which he had TAX
en- in Honolulu.
County Attorney Bevins, in few
words, expressed the welcome OF
Maui to the new judge, speaking on
behalf of the bar, officials and cltl-
Zens generally.
MT. Eugene murphy eHuOlSSu ILS
remarks of the previous speaker,
added a word of welcome and then
transferred the subject to Mr.. Dan
Case, whom he referred to as the
dean" of the local bar.
Mr.. Case spoke briefly, but most
cordially greeted the new head of the
court and assured him of the pleasure
it gave the bar, court and county Of
ficials and the public generally to
welcome him to Maui.
The court, in reply, spoke briefly,
saying that he appreciated very much
the attitude of the people of Maui to-
ward him, as he had, in such brief
time, been able to observe it; and
particularly appreciated the express
sions which he had just listened to
from members of the bar. He trust
ed, and believed, that results would
bear out the hopes of everyone.
That brought the proceedings,
which were very short and simple,
to close, the court announcing ad-
journment for the day.

MedicalBOard Exam
lining RegiStrantS
Busy Week Put In-MajOr Cooper
Says Nice Things Of Local
Draft Workers

The military medical examining
board arrived in Wailuku by the Ma
una Kea last Saturday night, register
ing at the Maui Hotel, and have been
here since. They plan to leave here
tomorrow night for the island of Ha-
waii to continue their labors there.
The board is composed of Major
Charles b. Cooper (until lately head

tional Guard of Hawaii, who was re-
Gently called into active service) and
the following from the regular army:
Major A. V. Hennessey, Captain ]. p.
Cleary, Captain o. J. Markley and
Hospital Sergeants A. o. Miles, Van
derpool and Phillips (the latter three
also being medical specialists).
The board came here to examine
what are termed deferred" men on
the list for the selective draft and in
the National Guard The local exam
ming board accepted some, rejected
others and deferred" quite a large
number on account of questions as to
their physical fitness, and it is the lat
ter lot that the general board mas
been examining. The work began
Monday morning in the Wailuku town
hall and has been progressing stead
ily and as rapidly as possible, since.
About 10 men a day have been
examined.
Speaking of the work which had
previously been done here, Major
Cooper said: 81 cannot refrain from
complimenting Sheriff Crowell, DR..
Osmers and their assistants on the
thOroughness of their work in connec-
ton with the selective draft Its
thoroughness shows itself all the way
through, and has greatly simpliiied
the work of our board. Moreover, we
have had the most valuable assistance
from both Sheriff Crowell and DIR. Os-
mers, the former placing his clerical
force at our service and the latter
making a special trip to Hama and do
ing certain work there which has
saved the board a great deal of in
convenience. | regard the selective
draft work on Maui as AL, and Sheriff
Crowell, DR.. Osmers and their associ-
ates are to be complimented".

Compliments Mr.. Burr

When the circuit court term open
ed Wednesday Attorney VIM. T. Raw
Inns, of Honolulu, took the floor and
in very eloquent manner paid a high
tribute to the abilities, character and
reputation of Judge Burr, who was
just beginning his official duties. The
remarks of Mr.. Rawlins were receiv'
ed with interest and were regarded
as timely, for the reason that Judge
Burr had come into the community
as almost a stranger. Mr.. Rawlins
came up on two cases in which he is
interested and will return again next
week.

BIG SPORT CARD
is PLANNED FOR
THE JUNE FAIR
Spectacular Cavalry And Infantry
Features To Be Staged By The
Army And Others I
ATHLETES OF ISLANDS TO ENTER

Honolulu, March 2O-Prospects are
bright for a great sport card at the
territorial fair, with spectacular caval
ry and infantry features staged by
the army as special events. The race
track at Kapiolani Park will be roll
ed and put into first-class condition
for the speed events, and the polo
field inside the course offers excellent
facilities for many of the field events
and the army maneuvers. The grand
stand has a seating capacity of 1900,
while bleachers can be placed to ac-
commodate 1000 more.
Athletes and strong men from all
parts of the territory will be urged
to participate in the big fair events.
The commission expects to have
something doing on the track or field
every hour of the morning, afternoon
and evening, for the entire six days
of the celebration.
For runners the progam will
provide sprints, distance events,
marathons, relays, etc.
A tug-of-war tournament for the
championship of the Islands, with a
purse hung up as added inducement,
undoubtedly will be arranged, to at
tract the strong men from the Big Is
land, Maui and Kauai. In this test
the regimental teams of the army
will participate, and it probably will
be staged as one of the regular even
ing attractions, with one or two con-

ACCIDENT BOARD
FILES REPORT ON
WORK OF YEAR
Court Decision Caused Suspense For
Several Months, But Much
Work Was Done
DETAILED STATEMENT OF BUSINESS
To His Excellency,
LNcius E. Pinkham,
Governor of Hawaii,
Honolulu, Hawaii.

We have the honor to submit the
following report of the work of the
Industrial Accident Board for the
County Of Maui, covering the year
ending February 1, 1918.
The work of the Board was serious
ly interfered with during the latter
part of the period owing to the deci-
sion of the First Circuit Court which
held the Workmans Compensation
Act unconstitutional. Until this de-
cision was overruled by the Supreme
Court on December II, on advice of
the Attorney Generals Department,
no action was taken on any cases of
accident, and the activity of the
Board consisted only in holding reg
ular meetings and receiving and filing
such reports and claims for compen-
sation as were received.
Employers Delinquent
The insurance policies of most OF
the employers within our jurisdiction
expired on July 1, 1917, and large
part of these failed to renew them or
to make other provision for compen-
sating their employees pending a de-
cision by the higher court on the val
idity of the law. The Board is find

Let Prohibition
Apply All Ouer

The Chamber of Commerce
of Maui, composed of the busi-
ness men in every line, yes
terday afternoon discussed the
liquor question seriously and
earnestly, and the opinion was
that an effort should be made
to bring this island in under
the same rule which will make
Oahu dry. The following
resolution was introduced, sup
ported by all of the speakers
and unanimously endorsed:
Resolution
WHEREAS, in order to eff
fectively aid our Government
every effort should be made to
speed up production of neces-
sary materials for the conduct
of the war, including food pro.
ducts: and,
WHEREAS, the Territory of
Hawaii produces a large quanti-
ty of such food products, name
ly sugar and canned pine
apples; and,
WHEREAS, it is known
fact that the use of intoxicat-
ing liquors is one of the potent
agencies which works against
efficiency in all industries; and,
WHEREAS, the recent order
of President Wilson, prohibit
ing the sale of liquor on the is
land of Oahu may deter the
passage of the bill, providing
for prohibition for the Territory
of Hawaii, now under consider
alton by the Congress of the
United States; and,
WHEREAS, although we be-
lieve the said order of the Presi-
dent safeguards those in active
military service of the Federal
Government, we believe that re-
suits will be far better if said
bill becomes law as prohibition
for the entire Territory of Ha-
waii as it will assure far bet
ter industrial efficiency as well
as the saving of foodstuffs now
used in the manufacture of al
coholic beverages consumed in
this Territory, and
WHEREAS, we further feel
that great unfairness will result
to us if prohibition is applied
to the island of Oahu only, as
such a halfway measure will
be followed by a large increase
in the liquor traffic and it's ac-
companying evils on this island.
Therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that the Maui
Chamber of Commerce, being a
representative body of the
County of Maui, Territory of
Hawaii, urges the Delegate to
Congress from said Territory
of Hawaii to use every effort to
further the enactment of a law,
as a war measure, providing for
prohibition for this Territory
as a WHOLE; and be it further
RESOLVED, that a copy of
this preamble and resolution be
sent to our Delegate to Con-
gress, ]. Kuhio Kalanianaole.
