PICTURE BRIDE PROBLEMS GIVEN
CONSIDERATION OF !. v. WORKERS

here, the Y. w. G. A. there has
established a hotel for picture brides,
where the young women may stay for
a day or two prior to sailing for Ha-
vail and San Francisco At the hotel
the prospective brides are given in
structions in American manners and
customs, to assist them III complying
with immigration requirements and
make their life in their new homes
happier. r.
AS Honolulu receives many times
the number Of picture brides landing
in San Francisco every year, the ma
tional board of the Y. w. C. a.,
through Miss Matthew and Miss Ka-
wal, is studying the situation thor,
oughly and 1t is possible that ulti-
mately a Japanese woman worker Of
the Y. w. C. A. may be employed at
this port T..
Miss Hawai- has been in the United

Widespread disturbances affecting
the shipping of the whole coast and
possibly of the whole country, were
predicted as the outcome of the meet

Relative to the cablegram from To-
kio detailing an attack upon the plan
Of text books to be introduced in lap.
anese education here, published tues
day in the sitas-lsulletin, Hawaii Ho-
Chi says editorially:
"Our Toxic correspondent informs
newspapers in Japan has attacked
the acknowledgements school text
book, which is now under compilation
IN, Japan. The attack made by the
Ynmato Shinbun, as we are inform
ed by cable, is rather too short and
cannot express full argument, but 1t
said: That il is not right for the
Japanese subjects In Hawaii to give
their children entire American educa-
ton. where they were born in that
territory, as they are not grown
enough TO decide for themselves whe-
ther they will be American citizens
or Japanese subjects after they are
grown.
This is the most foolish argument
that the Japanese editor ever wrote.
1t is plain that a man cannot serve
in two countries. He must adopt one
or another sooner or later, especially
those who are born In Hawaii Terri
tory. All Japanese children who are
born in Hawaii are American citizens
by their birth, and this is the country
where they win take an active part
after they are grown. The fundamen-
tai principle of education is to assist
such children to become true and
loyal citizens to the country where
they were born.
ITO assimiIiate customs and system
and spirit of one country does not
mean to be disloyal to another coun.
try. The question of patriotism is a
matter of spirit, and there is no rea.
son why those born i'm this country,
brought up as Americans and given
true American education are not fit
ted for japanese subjects. Il is far
better for The children to be taught
IN one principle rather than that they
be given a mixed education such as
they have been receiving. II VIII mis-.
lead the children to teach them in the
Japanese schools to be loyal to ia
pan while in the public school they
hre taught true Americanism. The
| Observation-Disclosures children must be
taught one principle, that is the true
American principle, first to be true
American citizens, and all educators
must have the same spirit toward
this question.
IT Is q mistake for the Hawaiian
Japanese Educators Association tt
ask the Japanese government to un
dertake the compilation of Hawaiian
japanese text books. It is not thu
