JAPANESE WON'T
TAKE ADVANTAGE
Of EXEMPTION

That the Japanese in Hawai-, or at
least most of them, are ready to
serve the United States by joining the
national army. is the general express,
sion in Japanese circles.
T. Mural, Japanese eIeve-Consul,
said this morning that he believed It
is the duty Of every Japanefe here
to stand for the flag under whose pro.
lection they are enjoying their live
hhood in Hawaii. Asked whether nA
had received word from Toxic pro
testing against the drafting of the
Hawaii-Japanese for the national
army, Mr.. Mural answered in the neg.
ative.
The receipt of purported instruc
lions from Provost Marshal CroWder
directing the exemption board not to
draft certain Japanese, is Of no inter
est to the local Japanese. What they
say now, is that they are ready to do
their share towards protecting the
country of their adoption.
