THOSE WHO REGISTER
MAY LEAVE COUNTRY

l.. WASHINGTON, June l7-Provost
Marshal General Crowder issued a
statement tonight TO make il clear
that registered men having business
outside the country may leave if proper
assurances are given the war depart
ment. a q 70, -
persons who have registered and
who desire to leave the United States, "
he said, "should first obtain permission
in writing from the war department to
do so. This permission may be obtain
ed by sending the applicants registra'
tion certificate to the Office of the pro-
vost marshal general, Washington, d.
C. Registration certificate should be
accompanied by a statement signed by
the applicant to the effect that he ac-
cepts the following terms:
"He is liable to draft unless ex-
empted, excluded or discharged there
from; while absent from the United
States the burden of keeping himself
informed as to whether or not his name
has been drawn rests wholly upon him.
self. If directed to do 80 he will re.
turn to the United States at his own
expense to appear before an exemption
board, or to submit 10 examination for
service. - ....
che should also state what countries
he desired to visit and to what address
he wants the permit sent. These per.
mits are not passports. They are in
tended TO accompany applications for
the passports, which are issued by the
Department of State on the question. "

CITY OF HONOLULU
is FACE TO FACE
|WITHOIL,SHORTAGE

The wheels of the new city admins
tration began to squeak the first time
they turned over, and all for lack Of
oil. This statement is literal, not agu.
rative. The city and county Of Homo.
lulu is out of oil and doesn't know
where it's going to get any. ",.s.:
y An attempt was made yesterday to
buy carload of oil from the Standard
Oil Co, for the municipality. 1t met
with failure; the oil trust had no oil
to deliver, and didn't know when it
would have. And even if it did, the
city couldn't get it at the old con
tract price of ninety-eight cents
barrel. Oil has gone up-it sells at
$3.50 q barrel.
As cold matter of fact, the city
faces serious situation. 1t doesn' t
oil And oil is commodity without
which it cannot get along. The elec.
trio light plant, for instance, needs lots
of it, as does also the engineering de-
partment.
City Engineer George NJ. Collins
and City Purchasing Agent H. +.
WeseOtt had conference over the
telephone late yesterday over the mat.
ter, but no conclusion was reached.
Collins stated that the situation was
serious; the city would have to live
from hand to mouth, so far as oil was
concerned, he said.
The old board of supervisors, in the
week before it went out OF office,
passed a resolution introduced by Lar.
sen. authorizing and instructing the
purchasing agent to buy, at the con-
tract price of ninety light cents, before
the contract should expire on June 30,
90 900 barrels of oil, years supply,
the argument being that the city
would thereby save virtually 100000.
And it was generally supposed that the
purchase had been made. But appar-
entity it wasn't Ex,supervisor Larsen
said last night, in reply to a question
over the phone, that under the con.
tract the STANDARD Oil Co., was not re
quired to furnish oil at the contract
price except in tank lots. Larsen said
the company had been selling to the
city at loss for more than year
and he didn Z blame il for refusing
to ill the order for 10000 barrels. >
The entire question appears TO be
confused. The only outstanding fact
is that the city needs oil and can Z
get it. And unless 1t does get IL, and
that soon, the electric light plant is
liable TO have to shut down, the gar
bage department 60 out of business.
the waterworks be badly hapdicapped
and the well known moon required TO
work even harder than Il does now to
light the streets of the city.

Beginning of the End

TIME last forty-eight hours has added two more
i ayowed and open enemies, Brazil and Greece,
the list which Germany's crimes against civiliza-
ton have earned her, and, should the war continue
for many months longer on the plane to which
Teuton frghtfulness has brought it. several other
nations will undoubtedly join in the international
mad dog hunt. Norway is already on the brink
Of declaration, and it is inconceivable that the
proud spirit OF the Vikings can much longer sub
nit to German aggression The latest demonstrate
ed crime of Germany against the Morse would be
unthukable, were it not matched almost every day,
and certainly at every opportunity, by equally
black crimes against others .'. ...
K Greece has finally entered the conflict, the
severance OF diplomatic relations can mean nothing
else in her case, and the weight OF the Greek army
will now be added to that of the forces of General
Sarrail for the drive north into Serbia. With the
last yestge of danger in his rear removed, Sarrails
offensive may be expected at any time.
N Russia is striking once more and it is growing
daily more evident that German intrigue at Petro-
grad has failed lamentably as it did at Dublin
at Bombay, at the City of Mexico, at Johannes
burg, at Teheran at Kabul and at Picking. A
rejuvenated Russia will soon be hammering along
the eastern front and back into Rumania while
Turkey, Bulgaria and Austria will be calling vain,
ly for the legons OF the Kaiser, melting away be-
lore the British French and American drives on
the west. 49, %@...
The German war lord may continue to insist
upon the sacrifices of Gertnany's manhood but
each day now brings the Kaiser closer to that GER
tain time when he will be beaten to his knees
dethroned and execrated by the entire world. This
is inevitable unless he has retained sufficient OF his
reason to compel him to splatter out his own
brains as the only escape. r.>

BRITISH ARMY HORSES ~
HELP TO FEED PARIS
(By The Associated Press)

PARIS, June 20-The British army
sends between 400 and 800 horses a
week TO Paris butchers to be slaughter
ed and put on sale in the horse meat
markets. The French army furnishes
a smaller number. The total makes
such an important contribution to the
feeding of Paris that the horse butch
ers are using it as an argument against
the closing of their establishments two
days week along with other butchers.
The result, they say, will be that a
great many wounded horses that are
now killed at the front, then shipped
to Paris to be dressed and sold, win be
buried on the spot without profit to
anyone. Five thousand horses are
slaughtered each month at the Vau-
giTard stockyards.

Hope For the Guard

>T@tIE matter Of the registration and draft is
becoming little clearer, but the matter OF
the status 81 the National Guard of Hawaii is on
the surface becoming more and more obfuscated.
Yesterdays cable to the adjutant general from
Brigadier- General Crowdsr, the provost marshal,
clears up one point 1t announces that the meni-
bers Of the guard are exempt from the necessity
Of registration and are not subject to the draft.
So far, so good But can It be that we are to
maintain national guard that is not to be called
into service and are to call into service the other
oligibles who are not in the guard? Such thing
appears paradoxical. 1t would mean that all those
who desire to escape the prospect OF having to 60
to the front may do SO by hurrying up and taking
the oath Of the militia, organization whose sole
purpose il is to fight when the time comes.
The paradox exists only, however, so long as
the various announcements that the guard is not
TO be modified are taken into account 1t disap-
pears in the light OF the commonsense conclusion
that the war department has already seen the
folly of holding the guard inactive, and has deter
mined to call it into the federal service. Yester-
days cable deleting the guardsmen from registra-
ton and draft can hardly mean anything else.
Outside OF the fifteen hundred or so men left
in the guard under the reorganization, there are
probably not more than fifteen or sixteen hundred
left who eligible for drafting into the service
of the United States, certainly not more than
enough to complete the organization OF the two
guard regiments at war strength. The number oil
voters registered in the Territory is approximately
81 600, Of which number not more than one-third
will come within the age limit Of the registration
or 1000. OF this number, fully fifty per cent will

ing $500 from among whom the selection may be
made. If, out of these, there are more than l6OC
who can pass the medical and mental test it will
be surprising. '%1:G!&
1t is natural suppositon, then, to go on the
assumption that the plan is to draft these mel
into the national guard to fill the two regiments
after the guard has been called into the federal
service. i r
