mated. apd at every stairway leading
to the rhauka side of the house was
found slop hole. which in our opin-

Kalihi Detention Camp was found to
be in excellent shape, both as TO sani-

from some source, as such accommOda

further recommend that similar in

was neat and good wholesome fool
supplied to the boys. and in answer to
questions regarding their surroundings
they all appeared satisfied with the
treatment accorded them. We would,
however respectfully recommend that
