After Curtis p. Iaukea had told
him that the queen wanted a will

BABY WEEKPLEA
MEETS APPROVAL
OF THE CHAMBER
Modest Request for Funds is
Endorsed: National Guard
Plan Gets O. K.

! Only the modest sum Of 5 too for all
the babies in Honolulu to he used in
the ad ,ancemeEt Of tne' Baby Week
program, was asked Ior by Mrs. James
j A. Rath, chairman of the publicity
committee, in her request for indorse-
ment of her substitution list plan
I presented to the advertising and sub
scriftiOn committee of the chamber of
commerce. The plan was Endorsed by
the committee yesterday at its regu-
lar meeting.
The committee then turned to the
plan Of Adjutant General Sam John
son to raise 81, 500 for the benefit of
the National Guard. The size of the
! guard has increased out of all proper
, ton to it's territorial and federal
funds, both of which were appropriate
ed on the basis of the strength of the
guard a year ago, when it consisted
, of fewer than 700 men. Today Gen
eral Johnson reports the guard as hav-
I ing 5000 men on its rolls. The only
solution of its financial problems is a
| large popular subscription The COM
mittee Endorsed the project, and one
large business firm has already con-
tributed $4,000, with a number of
others pledged to add their names to
the list as soon as presented.
Letter Outlines Needs.
The subscription letter, ind9rsed by
the committee, is as follows:
In conformity with the expressed
desire of the war department the Ma
tional Guard OF Hawaii has been re-
cruited to a strength of more than
5000 men. AS appropriations for the
fiscal year by the federal government
and up to June 80, 1917, by the terri
torial government, being based on a
strength of about only 700 men, has
been exhausted, the guard is in urgent
need of funds.
Several extensive projects which
will lead to increased efficiency in the
guard :rnd which are necessary for the
proper training of the men, are held
up for lack of funds, and much valu-
able time is lost.
Money Urgently Needed,
"It is estimated that $13,500 is ur
gently needed to maintain the Nation
all Guard, and to reach the high stand
ard of efficiency that is aimed at. The
items for which this sum is desired,
with the probable amounts required,
are as follows: g.
Laying water system to the Punch.

necessary water storage facilities,
$500.

SURPLUS COTTON STOCK
CLOSES DUPONT Mills

Because OF reduction in the output
at the Hopewell. Virginia, plant Of the
DUPONT Powder Company. $500 men,
employed there. have been laid off.
Two and one-half units out Of total
Of fourteen at the plant, have been
closed down.
Whether this lay-off Is to be tempo
rary or permanent, depends on future
business The big reduction in the
working force was made a week ago.
It was brought about by the enormous
quantities of stock on hand at the New
Jersey plants of the company.
The cotton is treated chemically at
Hopewell and then shipped to Carney
Point and other plants to be made into
guncotton. and it was stated at the
company's offices here that Hopewell
has been turning out this stock faster
than the other plants could handle It
and as a result there is large guam
tity of such stock on hand.

employees
ARE REFUSED Drill
Despite Encouragement OF
Summer Camps Government
Denies Leave With Pay
BAKER DEFENDS
OFFICIALS ACTION

Despite the fact that the government
is encouraging attendance at summer
military training camps for civilians
leave with pay. in order TO attend
such encampments. has not been
granted to Federal employees.
by many Federal employees this IS
regarded as extreme Inconsistency on
/ the part of the government IN view
] of the fact that many private concerns
have induced their employees to take
military training.
In discussing this subject, William
! NJ lngraham, acting secretary OF war,
quotes a recent statement made by
Secretary Of War Baker, setting forth
the reasons why it is not thought ad'
visable TO grant these privileges. Sec
retarv Bakers statement, In part, Is
as follows:
1T might seem surprising at first
blush IL the executive departments
b should fail to keep step with private
q employers in granting inducements to
70 their employees to acquire the iunda
mentals of military instruction tram
4. ing and discipline at these military
e training camps which Congress mas
ol provided for citizens.
FI FlnNIH are nOWNNtAa NNAAAAh RNAANN
r aspects OF the matter to which II
NJ seems to me due consideration must
MI be given. In the first place, in time
OF war the activities Of the executive
ntl departments. and particularly OF the
nel Department OF War and the Depart
il ment OF the Navy, would be enor.
mously increased. and they would
Ia. need the services OF all their regular
rnl employees and a considerable number
.ss besides. II considerable percentage
cir OF trained employees should leave theii
regular work for active field service II
Is would probably result in serious en-
hel barrassment 10 the work OF the ex
kel ecutive departments.
,onl 1T must also be borne in mind tha
tol the government is much more liberia
in respect TO leave privileges TO It
mas employees than the average prtvat
zen employer. AS a rule the governmen
ty- employe may be allowed thirty day
are regular leave with pay annually, an
he an additional leave on account {
sickness OF thirty days annually will
.io out loss Of pay. To increase this eve
''eu for the important purpose OF militai
training. without the express SAM
iou ton of Congress, would seem TO be
sl matter OF questionable wisdom.
