Teachers MarOOned
On Hawaii Island

| HONOLULU, t. H., June 4.-More
( than 300 school teachers of Hawair
who have filed applications for trans
portation to the mainland this sum-
] mer onn army transports, are to suf-
fer great disappointment. The July
and August transports are already
practically booked full for army Off
GERS, soldiers and federal employees,
and only a few if any, of the teacn-
ers will be able to get to the coast
for their Vacation. Being employees
of the territorial government, public
school teachers are entitled to trans
portation on army transports. when
there is room for them.
Nor will man yof the teachers be
able to go home for the summer even
if they are prepared to pay for tick
cts on passenger liners. Since the
United States entered the war, Hawaii
has keenly felt the lack of transport
tation facilities, many of the larger
liners having been diverted to the At
lantic for transport service. These
ships are now gradually being re-
turned but traffic congestion is stir
acute and the steamship lines are
hard pressed to take care of the travel,
many liners being booked full for
weeks in advance of their sailing |
dates.
Nearly all of the ''marooned"
school teachers are young women
from the Pacific coast states.
