That the Progressive party of Ha-
wall Is seriously considering making
a request to congress that it amend
the organic act to the extent that the
delegateship be done away with and,
instead, the territory be allowed an
actual representative with the power
to vote, was the statement made this
morning by George r. Carter, chair
man of the Progressive party.
Surely there can be no better way
of demonstrating to 10000, 009 people
on the mainland that Hawaii Is not
possession than the furthering of
such project as this said Mr.. Carter.
THAT is, instead of having delegate
we have a representative with the
right to vote. p + e. -...- ...:.
In connection with this statement,
Chairman Carter announced that the
platform of the Progressive party
probably will be ready by Thursday.
The local party has adopted the pol
Icy of upholding the primary law, and
for this reason no convention Is to
! be held. - =. g., ~. .->
The matter Of the Progressive
party's platform has been under dis
cussion for some time by a commit.
tee composed Of George r. Carter, DIR.
wv. p. Ferguson, DR.. Doremus Scud-
| der and Francis j. Green, as well as
number OF individual Progressires
In the territory. In the discussion OF
| the question as to when Hawaii will
get statehood, the fact was brought
out that the people on the mainland
are opposed to this because Hawaii
| is not part Of the continent
THE matter of Hawaii securing
statehood involves new principle
said Mr.. Carter. "From the fact that
Hawaii was not a part of the cont
inent, the organic act gave us greater
power than any other newly-organized
TERRITORY ever had. Hence it looked as
| If Congress intended that our present
form of government should be more OF
less permanent. It was members Of
the local progressive party suggested
that, pending the securing Of state
hood, the party should request Con
gress to give the territory an actual
Representative with the right to yote
LA power than was demanded by
every state that came into the union
Our committee also is looking into
the legal aspect of the question, this
| TO be made clear before the. fiaal
announcement of the platform Il
made. 81 A.. -.
For the past Ia years the people on
the mainland have been laboring I'M
der a misappreheasion as regards Ha
waits actual position. Because we
came into the Union at the time oi
the Spanish war. the impression pre-
walls that the Stars and Stripes are
only loaned to Hawaii and that the
privileges we enjoy are only temper
ary. ~ D..
IF the people of Hawaii. had the
right Of representation, the senators
would no longer say that we have nc
right to appear before their commit
tees and then we were there only BY
courtesy @~' =.
Mr.. Carter said that the Progressive
party is seriously considering makine
the proposed request to Congress, ant
that the initial action will be taken al
soon as the party's platform is com
pleted and proper announcement Is
made Of it.
