Nothing But Conspiracy" to Max
a Living.

Years ago Japanese were imported
into Hawaii under contract by the
late Claus Spreckles and other su-
gar planters, and were given the
places of the natives and white toll
ers For years the Japs worked the
plantations, and their leaders claimed
their condition was akin to ancient
serfdOm in Russia and peonage in
Mexico before the American inyas-
ion of men and money. Then they
organized a labor union and demand
ed better treatment and an advance
in wages. These demands were re-
jeCted by the Planters Union, or the
Hawaii sugar trust, and some weeks
ago the Jap sugar laborers called a
strike to force their demands. These
brown men have never wavered or
weakened. They refused to return
to work until they were guaranteed
better wages, better quarters and
more humane treatment. The Plant
ers' Union is all-powerful 1t con-
trolls the Hawaiian government, and
when the real facts are published it
will be seen that this raid on the
Jap leaders and their newspaper or
gans was desperate attempt, within
the law, to crush the labor orgaRiza-
tons of the brown men, and force
them to return to the plantations
under the old wage scale and the old
conditions of industrial servitude
The treason and conspiracy tale
was invented to arouse the preju-
dice of America and Americans
against these Japanese who were i'm
ported under contract to glut the
labor market of Hawaii and enable
the Hawaiian sugar trust to dictate
their own terms to the toilers in the
canefelds of the sugar-producing is
lands. 1t is not conspiracy against
Uncle Sam. 1t is a conspiracy" on
the part of the Jap bread-winners to
obtain better wages.
