the use ofintroducing such bill when
there was law already in the United
States statutes to that effect. There
vas no law when the Federal govern

eminent was doing the work itself the
law said it should be done by citizen
labor.
They had stated that the delegate
had never done anything for the Ter.
ritory. He would give them one il
lustration of what he had done. When
Taft was Secretary Of War his hobby
was the Philippine Islands. A bin was
introduced appropriating $500, 900 for
Notifications in the Philippines and
Hawaii. The delegate went before the
committee to object to this tagging of
Hawaii upon the Philippines. The first
year he lost out but the next year he
won, when 100000 was appropriated
for work in the Philippines and the
same amount for Notifications in Ha-
wall. 1t was easy enough to say that
it was bound to come anyway, but it
was their delegate who had commit:
ted Congress to specific appropria-
tons for Hawaii ..z * -. =
Representative Carney protested
against committing Congress to Ha-
waii in the matter of Pearl Harbor
naval station. He and the delagte
were each allowed forty minutes be-
fore the committee. Other represen-

We are the ones that gave them their
homes UP there Three different
times Ioffered to fight for them up
to. the supreme court, but they never
came to me. The. law is not being
carried out, but am not to blame for
it. There is proof on the other isis
ands that the homestead laws are
good for the people. The people there
are being charged only thirty dollars
for their homes, while you are being
made to pay six hundred dollars
He said his fight against the gov
ernor was not for himself but for the
benefit of the people of this territory.

an allusion to the Japanese scare on
the mainland, he asked, Where can
we show that we have advanced since
annexation. from the American point
of view? Last census showed that in
fifteen years from now one-haf of the
citizens of Hawaii would be Japanese.
We must bring in people who can as
