Franklin D. Roosevelt, Assistant Sec
rotary of the Navy. speaking in this
city on February 81 laSt, estimated
that a naval reserve force OF at least
1000 men and q fleet of not less than
$50 patrol boats would be needed for
the defence of the Third Naval Dis
trict.
Reports sent out from the Brooklyn
navy yard yesterday announce that to
date approximately 5000 men have en-
rolled for the reserve in the Third dis
trict. which runs from Barnegat to
New London. Yachts already accepted
by the government from the district
number only 100.
OF this large enrolment about 1000
men are in actual training for sea
service. They are men who have had
little or no sea experience and who
must, before they join the crew Of a
sea patrol, learn the ways Of ship life
for their own protection as well as that
of their country.
Some of these men are receiving IN
struction aboard vessels 10 which they
have already been assigned. The
greater number. hQ>,ver, are under
going intensive training at the armory

though several smaller ones At which
nifty or sixty men will be stationed,
are under consideration for points
along the Long Island shore.
Work Will Take Months
With the station able 20 care for
but 900 men alta time, many OF whom
VIII be stationed there indefinitely
although they have completed their
course OF intensive training, il will be
many months before many Of the
s,20O reservists can be called into
service.
The instruction az Bensonhurst is
similar 20 that a, the I'd Battalion
armory and is designed 10 make good
seamen out OF patriotic civilians.
When this thing is all over Cap
tain Hamlet said recently, IL want il
said that We turned out sailors, not
soldiers. Infantry drill IS splendid
training. A man with a rifle in his
hands takes new view OF things. The
rife is invaluable in physical train
ing. We are concentrating, however,
on the essentials which a man must
know before ne goes 10 sea and the
way the boys are working predicts
efficient crews for the vessels which
must patrol our coasts"

Army Recruiting
Still Falling Off;
New York Second
At Present Rate Army of
100000 Would Take I'm

Regular army recruiting throughout
the country is languishing. After main
tanning for several days a daily total
Of more than 1000, the number of
cnlistments fell on Friday to 1881.
Pennsylvania continues TO lead in the
number of recruits gained; New York
and Illinois are second and third in
line; but many other states. especially
those in New England, are reporting
comparatively few recruits. New Hamp-
shire on Friday reported none, Con-
nccticut Is, Maine 4, Massachusetts
-. Rhode Island 3 and Vermont /.
Pennsylvania had 200 and New York
reported l7s. At the rate that recruits
have been enrolled since the call went

Three old summer hotels which have

built for the Italian government, is
kept at the station and classes in nav

At present the men are being fed at
a hotel in the neighborhood of the
section base, but within a few days,
when the installation of the kitchen
equipment is completed, they will be
fed in one Of the government build

Two main points have been brought
out, however-the fact that the drug

his associates that heroin should be

NOTED SINGER TO APPEAR HERE.
Lovers of music, operate and Ha-
waiian. are. to experience rare
treat in Honolulu on. the evenings OF
Tuesday, December 4, and Friday, De-
cember z.
Miss Ellen Beach Yaw, California s
renowned eoloratura opera singer, ana
Ernest Kaai, ''Hawaii's Music Master,
will appear jointly on these evenings
in the Mission Memorial hall, assisted
by Mr.. Frank Moss at the piano. This
is an unusual combination OF musical
talent and seems predest1ned to a
large measure of success.
Miss Yaw is an artist OF wide
recognition as is readily attested
to by the following from a great
European critics comment on one of
her many triumphs there: S1gnor
Caruso and Mile. Yaw made the hit
of the evening" and her association
with the great Caruso is but one OF
numberless similar coappearances
with those who are greatest in the
world of music. H..
Mr.. Kaai's appearance signals his
first appearance locally in some time,
since he has been deVoting himself
largely of late to composing, and his
artistic and unique touch is bound to
lend much to the charm OF the ap.
preaching events. He has promised
to introduce several Of his latest
classical compositions, demonstrating
thoroughly that the ukulele is capable
OF better things than merely hum-drum
STUNNING, in accompaniment. These
new pieces are of the solo variety
and are exceptionally pleasing.
AS for Mr.. Moss, Honolulans have
long since learned to appreciate his
remarkable ability at the piano, and
his contributions to the evenings en-
tertainment are certain to gain high
approval, as usual. @ss~- a. IN
