Enough to Support Families;
Think Enlistment of Hawaii
ans win Be Encouraged

IN RESPONSE to a cablegram sent
last week by Governor Pinkham In
] cooperation with national guard
headquarters, the war department has
decided to allow again the enlistment
of married men with dependents, pro-
viding their pay on active service will
be sufficient to support their families
Governor 'Pinkham's message was
sent on Tuesday, and the reply to it
was received late Saturday afternoon.
The decision of the secretary Of war
in this matter is regarded of utmost
importance to Hawaii, and gives every
assurance that the Oahu regiment will
now be built up to war strength. This
strength has already been reached on
the outside islands, each of which sup
ports a battalion of infantry.
Brig. Gen. Samuel ]. johnson, adju-
tant general of the territory, comment
ing on the new ruling of the war de-
partment, said today that this special
decision is one of the most important
that has ever been made for the local
guard.
Il anticipate the enlistment of a
large number Of Hawaiians, whose pay
in active service would equal, along
with food and lodging, as much or
more than they are now getting" said
the general. at will also mean that
married plantation laborers will come

This must have sounded like bust
Eess to the prisoners who stood rig
Idly at attention till the salute was
finished.
On the following day, however, they
are said to have been sullen and un'
willing to work. They were promptly
marched out on the parade grounds
and placed at attention.
For two hours they were kept In
this attitude, and at the end Of this
time given 10 minutes relaxation
Then they we're put back at attention
for another two hours.
With typical German stubborness
they held to their first attention. Their
own officers talked with them, seem
ingly trying to get them to change
their minds.
