Maui Republicans
Endorse Baldwin
AS Their Choice
Republican Committee Puts
Senator In Field; D. H.
Case for Circuit Judge and
Kunewa for Assessor.

AHNAAaSN w Aoh a ASS~SSOAs
Senator Harry A. Baldwin for Dele
gate to Congress was the endorse
ment voted by the Republican eXecu-
tive committee at its meeting in Wal
luku Friday afternoon, thus putting
him squarely in the field of possibili-
ties as the unanimous choice of the
Republican party of this County for
the nomination. Though he was pre-
sent and protested against the action
S. E. Kalama's motion carried with
no voice other than Senator Bald
wins raised against it. Only his alb
solute refusal to accept the nomina-
ton can eliminate him from the field.
ID. H. Case was given endorsement
for the Circuit Court judgeship of this
circuit on the expiration of the term
of Judge l.. l.. Burr in March. Noti-
fication of his endorsement is to be
sent to the Republican National com
mittee and to the Territorial Bar AS
sociation. Mr.. Cases well known
friendship with Governor Harrington
is considered certain to bring an en-
dorsement of his candidacy from the
Executive if he shall be consulted in
the matter. Mr.. Case is the only
Maui Lawyer prominently mentioned
for the appointment.
Territorial Committee Ignored
1t was significant that in making
endorsements for the appointment of
Mr.. Case, j. H. Kunewa, for reap
pointment as assessor and of various
postmasters, no recommendation or
reference to to the Territorial Repub-
lican Committee is made. There was
no consideration of any possible re-
conciliation with that body since
there has been no official approach
ment from that body and the Maui
delegation to that Committee remains
in the same position as it has been
since it left the committee on the or
ganization of that body with Andrews
as chairman and Wise as vicechair-
man. The recommendation for the
reappointment of Kunewa is made
direct to the Territorial treasurer, A.
Lewis, Jr.

were made as follows
Wailuku A. Garcia, if any change

Election Inspectors
Considerable interest attached to
selections for election inspectors, re-
concentrations to be made to the Sc
cretary of the Territory. AS a gen
eral thing selection by the committee

pointment since the secretary general
