Recommendations as to Sites

Adyices Are Awaited

That army headquarters is looking
for site for the aviation corps and
that Ford Island at Pearl Harbor,
owned by the Ii estate. is one OF the
places on which figures have been
asked was learned today.
Fort Kamehameha was selected
some time ago, but recently 1t was
decided that II is not a suitable place
and nov another location is being
sought N*.-. ....> "
At army headquarters today II was
said that no place has as yet BEEN
definitely decided upon as there are a
number of places which have been IN
yestigated A report on the situation
here has been forwarded TO Washing
ton and until reply is received no
actual steps can be taken towards
acquiring more property. 1t was also
said today that before any land is pnr-
chased an appropriation must be made
by congress for the purpose as there
Is no money at this time available.
II is understood that the site select.
ed at Fort Kamehameha is likely &C
become too small with the growth Of
the fort as large field is necessary
for aviation activities.
Ford Island would be an admirable
place for an aviation field, it is ad-
mitted, as II has considerable flat land
and is absolutely secluded One diff
ficnlty which confronts the acquisition
OF this property is the fact that the
Oahu Sugar Company has lease ana
cane is now growing there. George
Brown, manager of the ii estate, said
today that the estate is perfectly will

ment wants it, He refused to say
what price has been set on the land.
Gen Frederick S. Strong, commander
of the Hawaiian department, said to-
day that on the arrival of the men de-
tailed to the aviation corps here they
would be located at Fort Kamehameha
until a permanent location is decided
upon. On the United States transport
Sheridan, Capt. John Brooks and so
enlisted men will arrive from the avn
alton camp at North Island, San Diego.
Later, is machines, Is more officers
and 125 men will come.
Whatever location is selected for the
aviation field it will be near the water
and probably close to Pearl Harbor.

csc port officials would not allow

duct from the Japanese government,
he came on to Honolulu.
The consul is designated on the

at noon today. when seen I'm the office

said that II had never been his plan
TO go on to San Francisco when he
was required to continue aboard the
transport because Japanese officials
refused to allow him to land at Maya
saki.

second day of the annual Methodist
conference here with a challenging
address sent out by Christianity to
the unbelieying, Come and See, :.
about 40 delegates were in their seats
in the church.
The morning was occupied by re-
ports, including one of DR.. s. Rhee
regarding the Korean girls seminary.
Several ministers of Hawaiian church.
as were presented. Secretary and
Treasurer Rev. l.. L. Loofbourow is
tabulating the reports
One of the important matters was
the introduction of a motion that, at
a set time, every congregation pray
for worldwide revival OF Christianity.
A similar motion will be introduced at
every conference in America this year.
Rev. C. Ramirez of the Filipino
mission brought up new idea by re-
questing that hereafter conferences be
preceded by week Of bible study.
His motion was referred to a special
committee to report this session.
A mass meeting was held at the
Korean mission last night; there will
be another at, the Japanese mission
tonight and the Filipino tomorrow.
