Charge Shady Work Say Government Employees Secure Contracts
Governor Carter will investigate Merchants' Association charges that government workers sell supplies to the government and bid on public contracts. The association says employees paid by taxes should not compete and warns of criminal implications. Carter promises due consideration. Also notes Japanese concerns over the hackman license clause in Hawaii's county act and potential U.S. treaty rights issues.

MacArthur Seeks Impregnable Oahu Fortification Plan
At a Honolulu conference General MacArthur pledged that Honolulu would not be made into an army post and that supplies would be offered at fair rates. He called Oahu the key to the islands and urged following Heuer board plans to fortify Pearl Harbor with shore batteries and mobile field artillery to deter landings, estimating a 3,000 man force including infantry and two artillery batteries, contingent on Congress funding. The Kahauiki site is expected for the post with lease negotiations delaying final action. A second item notes Chaimberlain’s Cough Remedy as a cure for croup and a local ad for Trimann subscriptions.
