Slash In Pensions A reduction of 10 per cent in territorial pensions will be recommended also.

County and city and county employes and officials whose salaries are fixed by the legislature would also be cut 10 per cent under the economy program. The unexpended balances of the funds of the biennium allotted to the Hawaii Tourist Bureau, the Pan-Pacific union and Lunaiilo home will be reduced by 10 per cent under the recommendations. It will be proposed that all cf the unexpended balances for the general appropriation bill be -eliminated at a saving to the territory of about $59,000. The items under "other current expenses" will be cut by 5 per cent, and a lump sum appropriation provided with which the governor may make transfers in and out of department, apportioning the money to the best uses during the remainder of the biennium. It is estimated that the reduction of salaries of government employes will amount to about $240,000, and of school teachers about $449,000.

Extra Tay Dropped Additional salary paid by the territory to circuit judges and the secretary of the territory, in addition to their federal pay, would be eliminated under the program. The monthly salaries of all members of boards of supervisors would be cut 10 per cent. This would mean $90 instead of $100 would be paid the Honolulu supervisors. In connection with the house economy program, heads of territorial departments have agreed not to fill any positions which become vacant hereafter, except where it is necessary to maintain efficiency. Between 30 and i bills, being prepared for consideration by the house of representatives, will call for reductions in government costs of approximately $2,500,000, and the reductions may permit the use this year of tax rates very similar to those of 1931.

provided the special session passes it. The tentative economy program calls for a reduction of approximately $900,000 in unexpended balances remaining in the current appropriation bill. Transfer of Funds In addition to the general program for reduction of governmental expenses in the general fund, it is planned to transfer number of funds to the general fund, which will result in removing charges which are made at present against the real property tax. Among the items which it is proposed to transfer to the general fund are: Interest and sinking fund on bonds for territorial purposes, the general school budget for 1932 and the budget of the teachers' college. Also to be considered in the general reduction program are cuts in expenses which have been made already by certain departments.

The special school budget has been reduced bv $578,150, and general school fund by $162,830. and the teachers' college budget by $118,610. It is estimated that a saving of about $100,000 will be made by eliminating the statutory provision whereby teachers receive an automatic salary increase annually. The Program Planned It is expected that bills will be submitted making the following provisions: Repealing the statutes providing tax exemptions for gas works and for water systems owned or operated by any person or corporation for the purpose of supplying water to the public. Eliminating rurther annual contributions by the territory to the insurance fund.

The annual contribution is $30,000. On January 31 the fund showed a credit balance of $398,168.06. The average annual withdrawal in the past five years has been $11,500.
