armory Of their own in which they
drill and are well provided for. Other
companies OF Hawaii are on the vari-
Gus plantations and each has been CIV
en- building for keeping arms and
equipment. They drill out OF doors
and in order to allow drill at night.
the plantation people have swung arc
lights in suitable places on each ranch
and the men drill as well as though
they had an armory OF their own.
General Johnson today said the Ma
tional Guardsmen on Hawaii appear
greatly interested In the work.
More companies could be organiz-
ed" he stated, but we do not want
any more just noY. What we want
to do is to equip the men we have and
bring them to the highest efficiency.
Then we wilb talk of more troops"
Shortly after the first Of the year
