JAPANESE DAILY LINES !.
UP AGAINST PROHIBITION
BY EARLY LEGISLATION

The Hawaii Hochi, Japanese daily
OF Honolulu, has lined up against pro-
hibition legislation and in q recent
editorial gave its views as follows:
in an issue of the Star Bulletin, the
other day, Mr.. H. A. Baldwin is quoted
as having said:
1t is believed by some persons that
the majority of plantation Japanese
are addicted to the sake habit, but
have not found this so.
During cutting season the leaders go
into training period. They have a
special table, drink milk and do all
they can to harden their bodies to the
work .... 4.
This is all very we'll and. certainly,
does not reflect to the discredit OF
the Japanese. But once more Mr..
Baldwin makes the common mistake
OF overestimating Japanese traits by
assuming too fantastic viewpoint so
often taken by Japanese admirers in
the occident We only wish Mr.. Bald
win is right in his point of view. but
unfortunately, we are not the scientific
people that he would like to have us
believe; neither are our workingmen
disciples of the students who went
into two weeks training on peanuts
in preparation for their interscholastic
field meet. Being Japanese we have
better command of Japanese psy
chology; and so are in a position to
know whereof we speak It would
seem more natural If Mr.. Baldwin's
Japanese were suffering from kidney
troubles. -. ~
The Hawaii Hochi does not cues
tion the benefits to be derived from
the advent of prohibition. But it does
lay stress upon the fallacy of abrupt
and forcible legislation in order to
obtain it. Only discomfort among the
laborers of Hawaii can follow such 4
procedure.
Considering the peculiar social and |
economic conditions of Hawaii, pro- |
hibition law will mean that. close in |
the wake of its enactment, there will |
follow a swift reaction, which will |
6ye widespread effect industrialfy,t
6 emically, and morally"
