GREATEST FIRE IN HISTORY
WIPES OUT MILL AND LUMBER
AMERlCANIzING HAWAII.

During all the years since annexa-
ton, the federal government has been
advocating the characterization of Ha-
Waii' by Inducements to American and
other Caucasian immigrants to displace
the original population of these Islands,
Within the last four years the Terri
tory of Hawaii, through its board of
immigration, has expended about three
quarters of a million to promote and
assist Caucasian immigration.
"These funds are raised by special
income tax of two per cent restricted
to persons and corporations with an in
come in excess of $4,000 per year. In
addition to that, the sugar plantations
have directly aided the movement to
Americanize the Islands by voluntarily
paying higher wage to citizen labor
and those eligible to become citizens.
As a result of this there is now steady
decline in the percentage of oriental
labor engaged in plantation work. there
has been no oriental immigration to
Hawaii for the past four years, while
there is a more or less steady stream
of oriental departures. 1t is
a fixed economic law that under sharp
competition a cheaper form of labor
will always crowd out that which has
a higher standard of living. In Ha-
wall we have been taxing the sugar in
dustry to counteract that law and to
purposely reverse it by placing eau
casian labor in place of the oriental
and in addition to being taxed to bring
them in the planters have voluntarily
paid a higher wage to Caucasian labor
ers From brief filed with house com
mittee on ways and means by Delegate
from Hawaii.

FEDERAL BUILDING MONEY IS
ENDANGERED BY DELEGATE
WOULD MEAN DISASTER.

II desire to make it very explicit to
congress that free sugar will mean, in
the case of Hawaii, not merely the loss
of capital invested in one of several
industries and the expense of trans
ferring to other lines of production as
here on the mainland; it means for Ha-
wall the closing down Of four-fifths of
her industrial unites, with no other
crops available for substitution. 1t
must also be remembered that absence
of fuel and raw materials make it i'm
possible to build up any manufacturing
industries in Hawaii.
In making this small statement of
facts that free sugar will mean indus
trial disaster for Hawaiian Islands, I
frankly recognize that congress will
have an excuse for enacting such legis-
lation if it would permanently confer
a benefit on the people of the United
States. am not in the position to
contend that the 100000 of people
in the United States should be taxed to
support the sugar industry of Hawaii
and the beet-sugar States. But hold
to the fact that this government,
through the power of congressional en-
actment, will bring disaster to Hawaii
without permanently benefiting the peo-
pie here by giving them cheap sugar. -
