YORKPAPER Of SCHOFIELD'S WORK

The Schofield military reservation is
more than two miles long, and consists
of about 1900 acres Of land, valued at
more than 100000. 1t may be
reached from Honolulu by railroad or
a splendid macadam boulevard. A
fine asphalt road also runs to Haleiwa

Of ,Schofield. The post enjoys the de-
lights Of four moving picture theaters,
four officers clubs, general library

baseball diamonds, polo field and
an ideal golf course. Trees, ferns
and flowers are abundant and beauti-
full and some Of the batteries, troops
and companies of the post have their
own vegetable gardens. Water, once
scarce, is now plentiful, and the soil
10 rich. Fruit, especially the banana
and the pineapple, is delicious and
plentiful, and Hawaiian fish is very
fine. Several ranches on the different
islands provide nearly all of the beef

Birdman Who Passed Through
Honolulu Declares Rumania
is Starving

Lieut.. Bert Hall, American aviator,
who passed through Honolulu last
week, is quoted at length on the war
situation in the Japan Advertiser OF
May 5. The story printed is as fol-
| lows:
Rumanians are dying by the tens
of thousands from typhus and other
epidemic diseases brought On by star
walton, according to Lieut.. Bert Hall,
an American aviator, who has been
recalled to Washington for confer
ence concerning future activities of
American airmen in the French army.
Lieut. Hall has been flying in the eau
casus for Russia and on the Ruman-
ian front since last December, before
which time he had been an aviator on
the French front since the first days
of the war.
More than 100000 persons are
crowded into Jassy, city designed
to accommodate about 10000 people
Lieut.. Hall said. There is almost no
food for them, and they cannot pro-
coed to Russia nor in any other direc-
ton. Doctors and nurses are dying
off rapidly in the district into which
the Rumanians who fled from Bucha-
rest have been squeezed. No news
is being permitted to go out of Ruma'
| MIA.
THE Allies will win the war next
spring on the Western front. The fH-
ture of the Eastern front will be de-
cided within the next six weeks. The
Russian army is disorganized. lacking
great leader, officers throughout,
and discipline. Unless the army Is
whipped into shape very soon, 1t
would be an easy matter for the Ger
mans to march through to Petrograd
and thus obtain great stores Of food.
However, the taking Of Petrograd
would not win the war for the Ger
mans, and would leave them with a
white elephant on their hands. The
war will be won on the Western front.
J The Russian army. is being rapidly
fitted up with guns and ammunition.
It now requires leadership.
France Anxious for Americans
France is anxious to see Ameri.
can soldiers arrive on its soil. A
large proportion of the French sol
diers have been wounded two, three
or four times and they are now almost
utterly exhausted. There are not
enough French soldiers to permit OF
them taking the rest they need. The
Americans would be able to alternate
with the French in trench work, and
thus greatly strengthen the French
army itself.
1t is probable that the first as
signment of American soldiers to
France will be a division, or $4,000
Iinfantrymen with of course, no caval-
rymen. Besides those who would be
telled off to alternate with the French,
it is probable that the American corps,
under their own commanding officers,
will take charge Of trenches between
the British and French armies, south
of st. Quentin About 5000 men would
be required for each mile of trench
taken over.
"A months training in France close
behind the lines will be sufficient to
put the Americans In shape. The first
