HONOLULU. T. H-. Aug. 20. Cur
few is ringing in Honolulu these
nights for the first time in history
despite the fact that a curfew law
has stood, unenforced, on the statute
books for years.
Enforcement of the law, which for
bids children under 15 years of age
from being in any public place with
out their parents or guardians be
tween the hours of S P. M. and 6
A M., resulted from a conference re
cently by judges of the juvenile court,
the city attorney's office, police and
probation officers. At the conference
attention was called to the increase
recently m the number of petty
crimes in which children were in
volved. Much of this was laid to the
fact that the children were on school
vacation.
Parents and guardians who permit
their children to violate the curfew
ordinance are punishable by a fine of
not to exceed 100. Children who re
fuse to obey a policeman's order to
go to their homes will spend the night
in jail and be given a trial the next
morning.
