New Membership
Plan Is Adopted
By Maui Chamber
Amendments To Constitution
Are Passed Without Dis
senting Vote; Larger Rev
enue To Be Secured

Graded dues according to a classifiS
cation of membership are to be put
into effect by the directors of the
Maui Chamber of Commerce, the
amendments to the constitution re
quired to do so having been passed
without dissenting vote at the meet
yesterday afternoon. The directors
will have to classify the members
for dues according to corporations
and firms and business houses, pro
portionate benefits received, capitali-
zation, volume of business and other
points for consideration. The dues of
individuals will not be changed. &,
In the past individual men only
were members of the Chamber The
first amendment passed yesterday
provided for the admission of firms,
corporations and associations as well
Heretofore an individual member
though representing one of the large
corporations or business houses paid
the same dues as a man who was en-
ployed somewhere in a clerical capa-
city. Under the new plan the corpora
ton or firm so represented will pay
more than tie individual but voting
rights and privileges are unchanged.
In order to carry that plan into eff
feet an amendment was passed Civ
ing power to the directors so to
classify once a year and to fix annual
assessments, payable in quarterly in
stalments, according to the classes to
be arranged. At present dues at $6
year are insufficient to meet the
expenses of the organization. The
new plan is expected to considerable
more than double it's revenue.
To put the plan into effect the
various firms, corporations and bust
ness houses viii have to be seen and
admitted as members as such and for
that purpose a membership commit
tee is to be named by President Col
Inns to make the requisite canvass.
Thus it will probably be a month or
two before the new order of things
can be made operative.
Creation of the Rest House Com
T. ittee as a standing Committe of the
Chamber was effected by another
amendment that was adopted and in
future other committees may be ad-
ded by the President when occasions
arise that may require it.
M. G.. Emmans, representing the
Standard Oil Company on Maui was
elected to membership and a consi-
derable amount of routine business
was transacted

Party Of 800 On
SIS. Los Angeles
Plans For Entertainment Of
Visitors On Maui Begin To
Take On Concrete Form; /;
Citizen Guides Needed

Maui citizens will be wanted as
guides for the visiting Angelenos when
the Los Angeles Chamber of Com
merce excursion reaches Kahului on
the morning of Tuesday September 10.
One at least will be wanted for each
automobile to tell the sight seers what
they are seeing on their trips and
there will be about fifty cars to carry
the 300 that are expected. The Situa-
ton was clarified at the meeting of
the Chamber of Commerce yesterday.
Letters received by Lorrin X. Smith
Maui member of the Tourist Bureau
and by the secretary of the chamber
gave the changed itinerary and made
it clear that the automobiles are to be
paid for by the steamship company
and the meals also. The Chamber will
have a reception committee to meet
the steamer and officially to welcome
the visitors and there are to be the
volunteer citizen guides secured to
ride with the visitors. The arrange
ments call for the assignment of only
five visitors to car thus leaving room
for at least one such guide. The
itinerary as laid down is elastic
enough so that the parties can be
divided, some cars making the East
Maui trip in the morning and others
going to Lahaina and up lao Valley
and in the afternoon the cars that
went up country in the morning will
make the Lahaina and lao runs and
those who took in West Maui in the
morning will see East Maui in the
afternoon. Lorrin Smith said that c..
E. Morris was arranging to secure the
cars.
The committee that will meet the
steamer will be either President Col
Inns or vice-president, j. J. Walsh of
the Chamber; L. X. Smith, member
of the Tourist Bureau from Maui.
Worth o. Aiken (chairman), H. X.
Duncan, W. A. Baldwin, Judge d. H.
Case, e. r. Bevins and ]. II. Gray.
1t is proposed that there shall be
held iuau in Kaliului on the evening
of the visit, the only time available
for entertainment and music during
the feast and perhaps dancing after
ward Tickets for the luau will be
sold to Maui residents if it finally be
decided to hold it as appears probable.
Arrangements for the handling of
the excursionists on Maui are in
charge of Lorrin X. Smith of the
tourist bureau for that organization
has undertaken to do so for the Los
Angeles Chamber and the steamship
company. This makes two distinct
sets of duties but the Chamber COM
mittee will kokua Smith as far as its
assistance is desired and he as a
member of the committee cooperates
in the other entertainmnt plans.
1t is reported there are about $50
members of the Los Angeles Chamber
and their families and about 80 others
more or less under the wing of the
Chamber. More definite news will be
brought back from the meeting Of the
Tourist Bureau next Wednesday after
noon following a meeting of the Bu-
reau to be held Tuesday.

time. Then he said the Haiku Fruit
/ Company would be given the oppor-
. tunity to secure a controlling interest
in the proposed company and that it
had machinery which would go a long
way toward the equipping of a plant
at Hama.
Company Grows Interested
Later trips were taken by w. A.
Baldwin and others of the Haiku Fruit
Company to Hama and they looked the
ground over thoroughly About a
month ago Harry \. Baldwin and w.
N. Rolph went over on the Kilauea
and looked the situation over thorough
ly. Delegate Baldwin said they were
much impressed with the possibilities
of pine growing and that there appear
ed TO be area sufficient to supply the
lrult Tor million case plant Since
then there have been reports that the
h1pahulu ground would be taken in.
rassoth went over to Honolulu last
week and it is reported il was then
that the papers were executed
Another report that is heard but as
to which there is no confirmation, is
that the Kaeleku plantation NAV
either go in for pine growing instead
of sugar or that it also may be sold.
The Drummond land which was first
purchased is between Kipahulu and
Hama. 1t is reported that one of the
other tracts may be added to the
lands of the Haiku company
Climate Suitable
In Hama the weather conditions are
such that there are times of drought
when the cane fields suffer severely
and in severe droughts it is impossi-
BILE to flume. The climatic conditions
are regarded as better for pineapple
than cane growing. The pines pro
duced there are reported as at least
the equal if not superior to those
grown in the Haiku district.
When news of the intention to
start a cannery at Hama was publish
ed in Maui News it was greeted as
one of great moment to Hama in par
ticular and the whole county of Maui
in general. The developments which
have arisen since increase the magni-
tude of the project and augur the
more for the Creates prosperity for
all that end of the Island.
