That the attempt to be made to Sc

bringing into Hawaii OF $4,000 Chinese
will be with the express understand.
ing that these Chinese cannot enter

nation given to Circuit Judge Whit
ney few months ago. he. told the
Star,Bulletin today. -. -. -: =.
This information, says Judge Whit
ney, came from ! man closely lden-
titled With the project to bring the.
Chinese into the territory, and which
has progressed to the extent that
Farm Cornn, local Chinese business
man, already has left for Washington.

Gals and congressman in the plan
The man in question was passen-
ser on the same steamer in which
Judge Whitney returned to Honolulu
from his annual vacation. --s..:.... .s~
Judge Whitney also was informed,
he says, that prominent Honolulu Chi
nese were the only people back of the
project In Judge Whitney's opinion,
It is the plan of those supporting the
project to use the Chinese for pine
apple and sugar plantation work if
the necessary legislation permitting
their entrance is effected. ~. .
DIR. Dai Yen Chang, who is closely
connected with this movement and
a personal friend of Farm Cornn,
said this morning that it is the plan
of the local Chinese, if the necessary
legislation is passed, to send COM
missioners to China These commits
sioners will have the power to select
the Chinese who will be sent and
only those thoroughly fit, both physi-
cally and mentally, will be accepted.
1t is not the intention to bring the
entire $4,000 in at once, but only a
limited number each year, not over
5000, according to DR.. Chang.
The purpose of bringing these Chi
nese into Hawaii is to supply labor
which is greatly needed here" said
Dr. Chang The fact that they will
not be permitted to go to the states
should greatly aid our cause. he add
ed. They will be placed on the plan
tations and every, incentive will be
given them to grow rice, which indus
try is fast dying out here. If.
