HARBOR WORK PROGRAM

Reports from Honolulu say that a tentative budget for 81, 100000
OF harbor and wharfage Improvement work will be presented to the
next legislature soon after it convcncs. \ very small proportion of
that fund IS to be asked for this county, however. There is to be a
provision for an additional sum to he spent in connection with the
hahulu wharf project and for an addition to Mala wharf and for
MoIokai a new wharf is to be provided, the sum appropriated by the
last legislature being inadequate so that the project was allowed to
rest until more funds could be made available.
SO far as territorial appropriations go, such provisions may be
adequate for the needs Of the mex. two years, but for Kahului harbor
federal appropriations are needed and the delegate will be working
for their inclusion in the next Rivers and IIarbors Bill.
With the completion Of the kahului wharf the harbor will not
be adequate to handle the shipping hat wants to come to Kahului.
1t Is essential in the first place, if the harbor is to accommodate more
than one big ship at a time, that the Easterly brcaBwater shall be
considerably heightened. That will make possible further lengthen-
ing OF the wharf when required so as to accommodate two big ships
at once and would also give anchorage room for other vessels out
from the wharf and under the breakwatcrS lea. Otherwise a vessel
at the wharf would find it difficult to leave when another vessel is
at anchor between the wharf and the end of the breakwater. In con-
nection with the frightening a certain amount of dredging is absolute
y essential 50 there may be sufficient depth Of water to accommodate
such vessels as come in to use the additional space.
That improvement is the one the Maui Chamber of Commerce
says is the greatest necessity. Lyman Bigelow, speaking for the
water to be necessary, also, and holds more dredging should be done
than would be required for the work the Chamber said was the
prime necessity and for that reason the Chamber included his pro-
pOSal i'll the scheme to which it has given endorsement.
The work sought from the federal government will. in turn.
lead to Il further demand for dredging by the territory but that work
need not be provided for by the next legislature in full.
From 1909 to 1920 the value of the output from that part of
Maui that is adjacent to Kahuui harbor increased from ten million
to almost ~T3S0O0O00. The kahului harbor project can readily be
shown to be the most important commercial project that Maui has
on hand at this time.

START RIGHT IN HAWAII

Those who are familiar with their bible will be familiar with
a reference as. 60 the p~luckiug of notes and beams from their own
and their neighbours eyes. Others may call to mind a quotation from
another source relative 10 the putting of ones own house in order
before starting out to clean house for ones friend. At this time the
point of interest is that Hawaii should apply such advice to itself
before or at least while seeking to secure more consideration for its
rights to a share of the federal appropriations for educational en-
enlargement purposes 1t is quite true that the Territory does not
get the share of support for education that it ought to but it is
equally true tina, for years Maui has not been getting its fair return
from the territorial educational funds for the money ii pays into the
territorial treasury for the support of schools. Every year the
counties Of Hawaii and Kauai have been taking bites out of Maui's
slice OF bread and butter. In other words and straight to the point
Maui pays IN school taxes more than a just proportion for what it
receives and Hawaii and Kauai receive an undue share in proportion
to what they pay. If they were poor communities and unable to
meet their own needs charitable Maui would say nothing, but would
kokua them willingly, but they are just as able to support their
own schools as Maui is to support her own.
The trouble as this paper has time and again shown is that the
assessment for monies for the schools is made ON one basis and the
monies paid out on another. not upon the number of children Of
school age the county has but the number that are attending school.
For lack Of funds schools are cut out and that further reduces at
tendance while if Maui got back It's full share there would be funds
for the support of several more small schools than it now has. But
Hawaii and Kauai are getting the money that should be Mauis and
in consequence llauis school attendance is constantly cut down for
lack Of such small schools or for lack Of opportunity to continue
above the fourth or fifth grade.
BY all means Hawaii nci should contend for its rights at Wash
iugton but in the meantime the territory should play fair With Maui
wash its own hands from injustice and mequny and 90 to Washing
ton with clean hands just as the rule in courts Of equity is that he
who would 90 into court for equity must do 50 with clean hands.
