JAPANESE SQUARE
RACIAL Problem
Nippu Jili Takes Governor To Task
For Ignoring issue Raised
Regarding Militia

bNAHH bfNNiVlD
criticized in the local Japanese press
for his attitude regarding the enlist
ment Of American.born Japanese in
the National Guard of Hawaii. Re.
greet is expressed that the chief execu-
tive is apparently opposed TO allowing
American citizens of Japanese extrac
tion TO enlist in the territorial militia.
All the city japanese papers are dis
cussirg the situation.
says the Nppu Jill: ~
1--WE, regret very much that Gov
crnor Pinkham, who heretofore
aroused undesirable discussions on Jap.
anese questions, has now shown a very
displeasing attitude in the matter Of
Americans of Japanese descent joining
the National Guard of Hawaii.
1--WE do not know exactly whether
local citizens of Nipponese parentage
have the intention to form separate
militia company or not, but if they
have sneh an Intention, to show that
they are willing 70 defend and honor
the Stars and Stripes, we congratulate
them in taking such a proper and cor.
rect step.
Governor Is Arraigned
1--WE have felt displeased when we
have seen that only citizens of Jap,
anese descent were out of the march
line in the patriotic military parades
held here by the local militia, and that
those of onr race had no individual
company in the line of march.
Japanese have no objection if
those Of us who are American citizens
form such a military company. Their
intention is good, and we honor them
for their show Of civic and public en-
terprisei We, believed, also, that the
Hawaiian authorities would encourage
the young men of japanese extraction
in their desire. This was our real ex
pectatiOn. We could expect nothing
else, but the fact was found to be
quite cOntrarysto the expectation.
"It seems to us that Governor
Pinkham objects to japanese of Ha-
waiian birth, and thereby American
citizens, from joining the guard, and
that his financial plant is but pre-
text TO dover his objection.
"NOw that the cOmmander-in chief
of the National Guard of Hawaii has
shown his displeasure in the premises,
we beliPve that there will be no great
trouble thereby The young men need
not trouble themselves about Joining
the militia.
overtures Are Repulsed
awe cannot refrain from saving
one word, among other things. about
the contradictory action of Governor
Pinkham before we come to conclu.
sion.
ono one can deny that there are
japanese in Hawaii who are working
and endeavoring to promote real, sub
stantial and lasting friendship be,
tween America and japan. On the
other hand, Governor Pinkham is pre-
venting and Obstructing these efforts.
1.-The attitude taken by Mr.. Pink
ham, Governor of such cosmopolitan
community as this Territory, is most
offensive, and we regret that such is
the case, because it hurts the good
| name of Hawaii.
"Let the relations between Amer,
leans and Japanese be peaceful and
friendly forever. We pray so; but
should there be any conflict OF mis-.
carriage in the carrying out of the
work along these lines, who would be
pointed out as the man responsible
for it,
owe dare declare that man would
be Governor Pinkham.'

In View Of these authenticated facts,
! there can be no reasonable doubt but
that the Sussex was torpedoed, and
that the torpedo was Of German manu-
facture. AZ II" vessel was seen 10y any

is irresistible that the torpedo was
launched without warning from Il sub

time OF the attack and remained be-
