injury to increased sugar and rice
crops with such a drain on the men
OF the territory has cut down the
militia to 5000 men, made up Of two
regiments Of infantry and a unit each
OF engineers, signalmen, artillerymen
and caValrymen. These units are
ready and eager for national service.
There has been no official call for
Hawaii. The men are anxious to go
TO the front and it is CALLING to them
TO see plans made for the entrance of
the state militia organizations into

given US to when and where they can

Waiians, paralleled with the seeming
effort Of many on the mainland TO
dodge or resist service, speaks we'll
Tor the territory. We want to get
into the fight right away and trust
that the war department will imme.
