Home Rulers on Hawaii are circulat-

discriminates against them in drawing
jurors and is prejudiced against Ha-

them were received in Honolulu yes

policy in the empaneling of juries in
his Circuit thereby creating race juries
which the Congressional Act organiz-
ing the Territory of Hawaii abolished
and is opposed to.
We submit, an investigation of this
charge by the Department of Justice,
will show that Judge Little is opposed
to Hawaiian jurors because of their
nationality and practically without re-
gard to the personal qualifications of
such jurors or their fitness to serve,
his opposition, amounting to this, that
the Hawaiians have had their day and
are not considered by him fit jurors
anyhow, whoever they are, and in this
connection we state that under ex-
listing laws the Judge has had prac-
tically supreme control of the selec-
tfon Of jurors, SO that Judge Little is
in a position to enforce and carry out
his prejudices, and We submit that in
vestigation will show that he is car
rying out MS prejudices and that the
jury list of his Court shows such a
small percentage of Hawaiians as to
prove that the juries are drawn on
race lines with only just enough Ha-
waiians on the jury to technically es-
cape the accusation that juries are
drawn on race lines in his court. all
of which is very respectfully submit
