GOVERNOR SEES
VALIANT LEADERS
INR, 0. TIC. SQUAD

High satisfaction with the work of
the 101 embryo officers at Schofield
training camp which he witnessed
during visit to the big post yester-
day was expressed by Governor Pink
ham this morning.
Il believe those boys will come out
of that three months course just as
we'll trained as any group on the
mainland" declared the governor. In
fact, l shouldn't be surprised if they
have little the best of the others
You wouldn't know Jack Atkin-
son." he remarked. Trained down
to fighting weight and brown as a
berry,"
The governor was much impressed
with the manner in which the candi-
dates went through their drills and
the ability they showed for handling
men in military fashion. He remarked
on their erect carriages and how they
stood at attention without so much
as the moving of an eyebaIl.

REACHES HAWAII

Col. Charles G. Woodward, recentl>
called to active service and appointed
inspector general of the Hawaiian de.
partment, has arrived and assumed
his new duties.
This is not the officers first visit

before a separate department was
formed and the visits were made as Il
part of the work of the Western divI-

tached.
Since his retirement in 1912, Colonel
and Mrs Woodward have been living
at Palo Alto. She accompanied him

ARNOLD IS NOT IN
SYMPATHY WITH
big FOUR" PLAN

Supervisor Charles ~ Arnold, mem
Der of the so-called -"Outlaw" faction
Of the board of city dads. declared to-
day that he was not at all in favor OF
the plan of the deficiency party" to
bring all public works back under the
city engineers department. But
whether he will oppose the plan when
the progressives attempt to put it
across" he would not say
My reasons for opposing the nomi-
nations of last Tuesday have, be-
lieve. been made clear" said Super
visor Arnold. But it is immaterial to
me just now who the heads of the city
departments are. AS a supervisor I'm
going to give the best that is in me to
make the city government success,
and give the people an efficient anG
economical government. I'll do my
share, and the experience have gain
ed while a member of the board will
be at the disposal of the department
heads at all times.
Il do not intend to pick quarrels
with department heads. | intend to
work with them. The successful man
in office will have my cooperation. Il
is the people who suffer when the
work of the head Of a department Is
blocked.
But do not believe this proposed
consolidation of pubic works under
the city engineers department is d
proper move. l am inclined to believe
that giving the city engineer the pow
er to hire and fire would be inviting
favoritism.
81 further believe that there are
traces of politics in the appointment
of Mr.. Cantin as city engineer. And
another thing, why was it necessary
to revise the board committees so that
each committee would be in the hands
of the Big Four" 1t looks to me
like a cut-and-dried proposition. What
was back of it? Why don't these men
come out and explain?
There is no danger that further ap-
pointments will not go through. II it
is ruled that the appointive power lies
in the board, all the Big Four will
have to do is to table all the mayors
nominations and move their own men
in. They have the majority"

While there is ma relief in sight
for the present oil shortage. there is
little danger that it will seriously af
