Hereafter, 1t is understood by the

Drafted In LA.

aIiNICHI HAYASHI, the first
Japanese to be accepted in
ALos Angeles for the military
draft, is a Hawaiian-born lad, "a
years of age, and will be remem-
bered here as a violin player Of
considerable ability. He told the
Los Angeles officials that being
an American citizen he claimed
no exemption from draft. The
Evening Herald of that city prints
the story:

"Kanichi Hayashi, the first jap
anese to be accepted in Los An
geles by draft for the Liberty

"'And, being an American, / be-
heved it my duty to fight
They were plain words, plainly
spoken, easily understandable, but
when Hayashi told of himself, of
his cherry blossom bride back in
Japan and his aged parents de-
pendent upon him, they bore a
deeper significance.
Il was born in Hawaii, "a years
ago. he said. My parents were
Japanese. have a wife in Japan
and my parents are dependent
upon myself and my brother, who
is younger,

for a year and three months, work

to my brother. We decided that

the other remain and support my
people.

that / was the one to 60. am an
American. / will fight. The Am
erican flag means just as much to
me as it does to any one else. I'm
ready and willing to CO.
"Hayashi's voice rang with pride
as he spoke. Then he smiled.
Perhaps he said, as we say
over here, l might kick the
bucket" What difference? I
died for an ideal, for my country.

IT'S. District Attorney s. C. Huber
from the department of justice,
has received q radio message
Washington, D. c., authorizing him to
release Max Weber, who was arrested
in Hilo several weeks ago at the in
stance OF federal authorities, on pa
role.
E Two conditions must be fulfilled,
however, before Weber can be pa
rolled. One is that he provide a
bond of $1,000 with competent sure
ties, and the other is that q sponsor
be appointed to keep him under. sur
Vigilance, the sponsor not to be re-
sponsible for his actions, but respon.
sible as regards reporting his actions
to the federal officials.
There is q possibility that Weber
viii be released some time today as
It is understood he has already made
arrangements for his bond. He will
probably return to Maui, where he
was timekeeper at the Pioneer Mill
Co.
When Weber was arrested in Hilo
several German war bonds, four load
ed cartridges and a bottle labeled
poison" were found in his posses
sion. It was unauthoritatively re.
Parted that the bottle wac believed
to contain anthrax germs. District
Attorney Huber declared today, how.
ever, that all tests made of the sub
stance have proved negative; In other
words, that the bottle did not con-
tain anthrax germs.

. as to what the conference Of the

council together for discussion OF the
situation Russia now finds herself in,
and will endeavor to bring about CO.
operative action to end the condition
of near-anarchy among the civilian
population and the serious disatfec-
ton of the troops at the front.
It is said that the provisional gov.
ernment's cabinet is backed by the
Socialistie element, who will endeavor
to bring into line the disseminated
businessmen and the general people.
The convention win also struggle
with the constitutionalists, Democrats,
sympathizers of dismissed generals in
an endeavor to get unity of action, and
bring the war to q successful issue.
With few exceptions, Premier Ker.
ensky is being exempted from the at.
tacks which are being launched

One of the principal points to be
discussed, and which IL sure to bring

Moscow that the seat Of government
should be removed to that city from
Petrograd, which they regard as the
center of bad Influences.
