Historic Palace in Hawaii Doomed by Wood Borers
Boston July 5 Americans have riddled the old palace building in this city with wood borers. The structure will be remodeled from basement to attic as reconstruction proceeds. The governor and territory secretary will move to a downtown hotel. Much work will use concrete since wood is unusable against the insect invaders. Termites have swarmed lately, invading the police station and discomfiting officers.
