THE GOVERNORS UTTERANCES
Under the head of General Subjects
Governor Carter starts his report with
a discussion of the educational status.
Among the most important problems
in Hawaii is that of education, he
begins and then states that Mr.. BaD-
bits article Indicates two pressing
needs of the public schools, namely,
increased accommodations for pupils
and better pay for teachers. AT the
end of the fiscal year there was an at
tendance of more than 10000 in the
public schools and of more than oOoO
in the private schools Gnclud1ng the
kindersartens) Notwithstanding the
great relief afforded by the private
schools to the situation, there is stu
much congestion in the crowded dis
tricts, and there are frequent calls Tor
schools in the newer settlements not
vet supplied with accommodations.
Prefacing the following table of pub
lie school buildings, the Governor says:
'.Inder the head of values the hgures
are derived from contract prices with
regard to recently erected structures
and from estimated present valuations
in the case of older buildings. There
are five schools in Honolulu having
structures of an average value OF $685.

JAPANESE CHILDREN.
In view of the international trouble
that has just sprung from a clear sky,
relative to the exclusion of Japanese
children from white schools in San
Francisco and of the stern attitude
President Roosevelt has assumed
against the action of the San Fran
cisco school authorities, the following
expression of opinion from Governor
Carter on japanese children in Hawai-
ian schools has particular interest. 1t
was written more than a month before
the San Francisco incident arose, no
doubt with reference to some local muir
muring a year or two ago about the
crowding of japanese children into our
public schools. The Governor says:
Mr.. Babbitt lays stress upon the
fact that there have been decreases IN
the school attendance of children of
pure Hawaiian and American blood
more than So per cent of the former
and more than 40 per cent, of the latter
while the attendance of japanese
children has increased more than 5S per
cent. Possibly the decreases may be
partly accounted for by the necessity
of dispensing with truant officers, be-
cause of lack of funds. AS to Ameri-
can children, no doubt the diminished
attendance is considerably due to the
departure of many American families
upon the ending of a period of great
building activity. There is nothing to
deplore in the increase of Japanese
children. The japanese are here prob
ably in large proportion to remain.
Their natural increase has been very
great, and. as eight years have elapsed
since annexation, a large number OF
the japanese children now crowding
into our schools have been born under
the American flag. When these reach
maturity they will have the right of
claiming American citizenship. It is
therefore most important that they
should have full opportunity of becom-
ing equipped with the knowledge and
habits Of thought requisite to good
American citizenship. Apart from that
consideration it must be conceded that
it is the inalienable privilege of every
child under protection of the flag to
enjoy the benefits of that public school
system which is one of the chief glories
OF the American Commonwealth and
which, moreover. Hawaii took as an
ideal long before admission and con-
tinues. as a part of the Union, with
best endeavors to maintain"
