(Special Washington Correspondence of THE
GARDEN ISLAND)
Washington, D. C, May 2 .
Adoption of t lie item in the Rivers
and Harbors bill providing for the
Kahului Harbor breakwater was
delayed bv an objection made by
Senator Smoot of Utah who asked
that the item be explained. Among
the senators who responded with
explanations was Senator Martine,
