In tho future. We have had anglo saxon
rule practically from the Seginning-r
r,can government dominated by Amtri-
cans
Mr.. Carter was asked Il Nc thought tho
republic strong enough to resist outside
| aggression. ss3
Yes he replied, II believe as long a.
we behave ourselves and 10 the right
thing we win not be disturbei by outside
aggressions. Ii has been so In the past
! and why not In the ruture7 You see. l
never believed In the Japanese scare or
that Hawaii was In danger from Japan.
There was trouble over the immigration
and Japan sent cruiser with commits
sioner to look inter the interest OF the
Japanese. But II was Just what Great
Britain or Germany would hive done un-
der similar circumstances. There are 4S,,.
600 Asiatics in Hawaiis whose fault Is
ng Why. the Hawaiians-lhe planters
tion. and under tho treaty with japan
they can come. One thing is lost sight
Of, The Japanese come under contract
for three years at $12, 80 month to work
on plantations. When the contract OK
pires they are free to remain II they
choose and work as FREQ people. But
naturally they want more pay and are
worth more to planters than new men.
They want SIS month and perhaps more.
But the planters dc not value a man with
three years experience more than new
man. and they get moro Japanese at $t,.b0
a month. This Ia the wl1 the contract
immigration has gone ON and the Japan
csc In great numbers are settled on tho
Islands. They go into the towns after
their contracts expire and got higher
wages. whereas II would really In the
lcng run be To the advantage Of the plant
ers to hire them as free iaborers at better
wages than TO send On for more new men,.
On some OF the smaller plantations the
free labor system Is applied. and II works
we'll with the japanese. The Chinese.
however. insist on a contract and they are
sure to perform their mart of IT. -
Referring to the visit of President Dole
Mr.. Carter asked: what Influence Is MIR.
Docs visit likely to haves"
In reply 1t was suggested that at least
II would give the senate the opportunity
OF knowing something about tho president
eral impression was that It would he ia
yorablc to annexation. Also that President
Dole's public utterances. so far as re-
ported. since his arrival In the United
States. had made favorable impression
even on senators opposed TO annexation,
Well" said Mr., Carter, President
Dole is a conservative man, and always
has been There is not a radical element
in him. He has talked Eunrdsdly IN all
interviews that have seen. He does not
admit that the republic Gun not stand II
annexation fails. He says II can. So do L."
Al no time does Mr. Carter intimate.
even remotely. the possibility OF restorn-
ton of the monarchy or hint that II Is to
he thought OF again. He declares that he
wants n representative government for
Hawaii and cares not what the name may
be. AZ TO the length OF President Doles
visit, Mr. Carter said;
Il doubt If President Dole Will stay
longer than six weeks. as he viii want to
return home while The Legislature Is In
session to look after measures requiring
his approval, 1t is his way 10 examine
every measure passed by the legisia'yre
carefully He gives to these things the
greatest care and thought and nothing
slips by that he does not know all about
and approves or disapproves.'
