was the feeling Of the men in the class
even if examinations were not later
resumed, that the knowledge gained
would be OF value in whatever form

ARMY NAVY
RECRUITS Will
USE MUCH FOOD

Food supplies for army recruits who
have arrived On recent transports or
are still due TO come-approximately
$500 OF them in all-will cost Uncle
Sam in Hawaii purchases along ap-
proximately $4,000 a month,
This money will go for foodstuffs
alone, and only those foodstuffs which
are purchased there. 1t Is roughly es-
timated that these amount to not more
than one-third Of the total food pur-
chases, the larger part being on the
mainland.
All of which means that for food
supplies Uncle Sam will pay approx
imstely $45, 900 a month for these new
men.
Even at $4,000 a month local pur
chases would average about $4,000
a year through this recent increase
which raises the approximate number
Of soldiers on Oahu from 10000 to
1880.

Of the appropriations committee, said
51at so Har the matter of appropria-
ton 10 AID the poor to get food had not
been considered by him or his commit
zee. He said that he had not yet been
able to learn how widespread was the
suffering and the need for such action.
nor whether this agitation over food
had been manufactured in large part.
Attorney General Gregory came in
for much criticism because he has NOT
used his department and his authority
TO deal With the alleged Illegal price
increases which have been going on
for months 1t was pointed out that
he has full authority to act without
amy further legislation.
The Indictment of few OF these

would do much to relieve the situa-
tIon.'
Senators contended that there was no
real need for further legislation calling
for an investigation into the food situ-
alton by the federal trade commission

that was needed, they contended was
