Following is the statement of w. w.
Goodale, manager of Waialua Agricul-
tural Company, before the Home COM
mittee on immigration and naturaliza-
ton relative to the excepting of Ha-
wall from the educational test for
immigrants.
The Chairman.-Do you appear for
any organization, society, or interest,
Mr.. Goodale?
Mr.. Goodale-None at all; l appear
here merely as a citizen of Hawaii.
/ want 10 say that / have had
great deal to do with the class of inn
migrants that are brought to Hawaii,
particularly the Portuguese and Span
ish people, and / desire to speak a
good word for them as people and
as citizens of the Territory of Hawaii.
1t is true that the adults who come to
Hawaii, or at least a very large pro-
portion of them, are illiterate, in the
sense that they can not read and
write either their own language or
ours. But they are people who make
the very best of citizens; they are
steady, industrious, law-abiding and
intelligent; it is almost an unheard
of thing that they figure in the police
courts; charge of stealing or crimes
of violence or anything of th9t kind
against any of these Portuguese peo-
pie is almost unheard Of and even
though they can not read and write
it does not seem to us that this should
outweigh and Offset all the good quail
tiles they haver We consider that
they make the very best of citizens
that is the second and third genera
ticns. Education of children is com
pulsory in Hawaii; they are Obliged
to go to school up to the age of 10

one of these original Portuguese i'm
migrants. They are not only taking
those high positions on the sugar plan
tations, but also in all the mechanical
trades in the larger towns, and they
are becoming a very important factor
in the life there. The Spanish people
tunities as the Portuguese, and / think
that the proportion of illiteracy among
them is greater than among the Por-
tuguese but we have not near as many
of them and they do not cut so big a
figure as the Portuguese.
Mr. Helgesen,-Are they as good
workers as the Portuguese?
Mr., Goodale, Oh, yes. Most of
them come from the Azores, which,
as you know, are some small islands
in the Atlantic, very rocky and hilly,
and where agriculture is carried on
with great difficulty. That and their
poverty has resulted in making them
frugal, industrious, steady people.
| think there can not be too much
said Of them as being desirable i'm,
migrants and as a class to whom the
test OF literacy should not really ap
ply to the extent of keeping them out
of the country
The Chairman,-In your experience
have you found any great difference
between those who are literate and
those who are illiterate as to theil
conduct and their citizenship?
Mr. Goodale.-We have possibly re
ceived some people whom the country
from which they came was glad II
get rid Of but | believe all of those
have been Of the more intelligent
class; they have been better educated
and brighter perhaps-not smar
enough TO keep straight, but JUS
smart enough to go wrong.
The Chairman.-Anything else YOU
wish to say?

it all depends upon Anderson when

matter will rest upon Anderson when
