EDITOR

/ Commissioner general Gaminetti refers in
somewhat sighting terms to the "present In
complete and haphazard methods" of Ameri-
canizing the islands. And yet the Star Bulle-
tin feels sure that if Mr.. Caminetti could go
into the public schools of the territory, with
their 28, 286 pupils of almost every nationality
under the sun, he might gain new idea as to
Hawaii's methods of :. AUGMENTATION. "
Could he see each day more than $4,000 chill
dren saluting the American flag, new concept
| of Hawaii's aims and plans might be borne, in
upon him. Could he go from island to island,
from Hawaii to Niihau, and see the churches,
the private schools supported by generous be-
neyolence the homes, the kindergartens, it is
possible that he would acknowledge fuller
appreciation of what Hawaii is doing to build
up an American commonwealth In the Pacific.
And the Star Bulletin feels also that if Mr.
Caminetti would visit the plantations all the
plantations and talk man to man with the
managers, he would find the amount of welfare
work there done such as to shake his present
fixed ideas of local conditions.
Could he visit Honolulu, or Hilo, or Waikiki
or Lihue or other towns in this territory, he
would find men and women moulding the
thought and the action of the day along lines
Of fine American public endeavor- civic inn
|provement welfare, education, religion, indus
trial progress.
And he would see that Hawaii is working
with greater and greater insight and apprecia-
ton toward the highest American ideals. He
would find, as in every community, men blind
to public interest, wrapped up in their person
al material progress, but he would find an
overwhelmingly larger number willing to work
