TONS OF CRABS
!. Cling TO navy
CRAFT

A feast of crabs fell to the lot OF
host of Japanese and Hawaiian fish
ermen who awaited the raising of two
United States naval craft on the
floating drydock Hoolana today. when
a huge crane and a drydock gate
which have ridden at anchor in the
waters of Pearl Harbor for almost
two years, were brought to Honolulu
for much-needed cleaning and re-
painting
Many hundred square feet of bottom
OF the pontoOn intended for the naval
drydock yielded luxuriant crop of
marine growth. TO which bushels Of
salt water crabs were fastened.
The crane and the caisson were
hauled on the dock at the same time.
Work on the crane will be rushed to
completion as its services are said to
be in almost constant demand at the
naval station
Vast quantities of shells, the accum-
ulation of many months OF idleness
Ii tropical waters are today being re-
moved by force of workmen armed
with chipping hammers. When cleaned
the caisson and pontoon supporting
the crane will be treated to presery-
ing paint
The raising of the ponderous struc-
lures on the Inter-Island floating dock
proved big undertaking, though, it
readily demonstrated the possibili-.
ties to which the drydock can be uti-3
lied in case Of emergency.
