plans will come in for further discus
sion at a meeting of the committee
that is to be called for Friday after

up that demand attention and it is
hoped at that time to be able def
nitely to complete the program.

ed and it would seem that those who
wish to see the Needle will have to
hike part way, for the bridge at the
crossing will not be completed nor
will the road beyond. However. the
hike will not be hard one. Ii has
been suggested that some of the visit
ors make a trip up Waihee valley
and another suggestion has been the
hahakuloa trip, though the latter is
meeting with objection.

luncheon will be served TO the visit
ors on Sunday in the Fair Grounds.

New Bishop Pays His
First Visit; Meets
With Warm Welcome

Bishop La Mothe is much pleased
with Maui and her people, and Maui
ties are quite as well pleased with the
new Episcopal bishop of the diocese
OF Hawaii. First impressions of both
appear TO have been alike favorable.
Bishop La Mothe arrived on Maui
Friday morning on the Kilauea, which
was day ahead of her schedule. and
so was given a day for sightseeing in
advance of the time he had been eX-
pected to arrive. Saturday evening
the Woman's Guild of The Church of
the Good Shepherd rendered a general
reception for him at the parsonage.
AT the early service Sunday he cele-
brated communion and at the II

the Holy Innocents in Lahaina. Yes
terday he held services in st. Johns
Church, Kula, and today he is sight
seeing. He will return to Honolulu
tomorrow night.
The parsonage of the Church of the
Good Shepherd was filled with those
who desired to greet the new bishop
Saturday evening and the occasion
was most pleasing one. There were
words of greeting form the ministers
of the other Protestant churches and
from Mr.. Villiers, and the bishop re-
sponded. Charming musical numbers
were rendered by Harry Washburn
Baldwin and Mrs. Mae Drew Clark.
There was refreshing spirit of cor
diality in all that was said by all of
the speakers.
The Sunday morning services, espe-
cially that at IL O'Clock, were largely
attended, as was the service in La
haina.
In his remarks at the reception and
in his sermon Bishop La Mothe laid
stress upon the opportunities and the
duties that confront church members
of the Islands, especially on attend
ance at worship. His remarks at the
reception on that subject seemed to
be stimulated by those. of others, espe-
cially of Mr.. Dekay, on small church
The bishop said he had
already noted that failure on the part
of church members and he touched
on the poor example that is set there
by, the effect it cannot but have on
those of other religions.

Alleged Letter From
Gardner Is Forgery
ASSOCIATED PRESS

TACOMA, Sept 27.-Following the
receipt of letter purporting to be
from Roy Gardner, the California ban
dit who escaped from the Mcneil ISL
and penitentiary early this month and
is still at large, Warden Maloney this

he discredits the authenticity of the
letter.

that an incident described in the let
ter did not occur and that the situa-
tion described was impossible. He said
that Fox Island, which the letter said
Gardner reached, was two miles from
Mcneil Island and the farthest point
from Mcneil Island, except one, that
Gardner could have selected in plan
ming to make his escape.

ing employment for the idle were
heard today by the unemployment

the problem for the former soldiers,
for, he said, his bureau found no diff
ficulty in placing skilled workers.
