Would Aid Local Lines

We can. help, build up a local service out of the large towns to smaller places, but of course cer- tain other routes which are now unprofitable must be provided with direct service from the outside. This fund in the Territorial Ship ping Board will provide the most effective control of the situation It will enable us to keep the best ships on the regular routes. giving dependable service. It will re- duce the costs, such as demurrago and marine Insurance, because the best ships will be kept out of the most dangerous waters where most of the niabine losses occur. Insur- ance rates now average fifteen per cent, and one American line now pays nearly one million dollars in premiums each year.
 ''I am confident that by this means we shall stabilize conditions so that common carriers and the Post office Department will get to- gether and give Alaska proper mail service instead of as at present treating the United States mails as freight. with no obligation on the part of the carrier to maintain routes or regular service.

The Dohrman Lectures
Much Enjoyed

The Dohrman illustrated lectures un.
der the auspices of the Mokihana
Club, were the social and artistic
events CT the past week, and were
thoroughly enjoyed by the large audi
ences, many of whom came from dist.
ant parts of the Island to attend them.
The pictures were particularly fine.
due in about equal measure to the high
quality of the slides, and to a rare
artistic sense in the choice of subject
matter. There was a very pleasing
and interesting variety in the scenes
depicted, the beauty of the Italian
lakes and the majesty of the Swiss
mountains being very gratefully re-
lieved by dainty bits of peasant life,
and rural, happy children.
Mr.. Dohrman is making an extensive
collection Of Hawaiian views. which,
If up to his high standard of excel.
lence, will do credit to these Islands
and win applause wherever they may
be shown.

Board Of Appraisers Active

The Board of Appraisers are abroad
in the land again. During the last
week they have been seen very much
abs orbed, and in shirt sleeves, poking
about in back alleys, business sites
and garden plots in Hanapepe and
Wa .mea.
III Hanapepe, the problem was to
determine fair valuation to be put on
preference right claims, which are to
be sold by private sale at the upset
price put on by the board. These
mutt be bona fide homestead lots,
actually lived on for 20 years. In many
cases these are business sites of much
value, and very much in demand.
The Waimea lots are of a different
kind, being remnants that will be sold
at public auction to the highest bidder,
starting at an upset price. Most of
them were appraised a year or two
ago, but were not sold. There are
some two dozen of them, mostly ad-
joining the beach.
