had q close call yesterday when guy

Persons who saw the machine after
the accident marveled at the fact the
officer was not killed or seriously in
jured, but he escaped without a
scratch. The windshield was shatter.
ed, the front dash torn from its base
and the wiring in the front part of the
car wrenched out from the electrical
system. All In all the car has a very
much used up appearance.
The general said today that there
was no one else in the car. II was
not much OF an accident, he added
despite the appearance Of the machine.
This is the second accident that has
befallen the officer recently. A week
ago last Saturday when coming into
town from the officers training camp
at Schofield Barracks he crashed into
q moving plantation train and only
averted a serious smashup by HIS
presence Of mind In turning his auto
mobile aside into the ditch.

HAWAII ABOUT DRAFT

Maj. F. J. Green, draft officer, will
leave for Hawaii and Maui some time
toward the first Of October to instruct
the local exemption boards there as to
the operation of the draft law.
These officials have stated that they
will meet to discuss the law and pre-
pare questions that may be trouble
some to them in preparation for the
visit. 1t does not look now as if the
draft can be held here on October l as
seemed likely when the call for it was
first given. 1t will probably be a week
or 90 later. The length Of time taken
by Oahu to get the registration figures
filed is held responsible for the delay.
