h CHRISTMAS REliINDER

That 5000 children Of school age in this territory should not be at
tending any school because there is no room for them
That 700 children in the city OF IIIo alone should have to attend
their public school classes in Japanese language school buildings, the
basement OF a Buddhist temple, and other like places because no other
quarters are available
That from 50 to 20 pupils should be herded in a single room under
one teacher in nearly one hundred instances because of lack of teachers
or lack of school rooms or both
That from s to Il teachers should be forced TO live in a cottage
designed for 4; and that many Of the cottages are so poorly built and
maintained that teachers sometimes refuse to live in them
That at least 40 more teachers are imperauvey needed but that
not a cent can be had to pay for them nor to pay legitimate salary in
creases of the present staff before September l92l-
speakaby bad
That the entire school system should be working under inconceiv-
able difficulties
That private and community philanthropy should be supplying
kndergartens and night schools in a few communities which should be
provided by the school department in every community
That HawaiIs public school system should be at least 10 years
behind the tines
That all these things should be true of this rich and prosperous
and proud territory of Hawaii, is something that should make every
decent man and woman squirm with modification.
What do you think about it? What do you think should be done
about it? Do you believe we should wait almost 2 years until the regu-
lar session of the legislature before trying to do anything!
Yes it is your busness-and yours, and YOURS, and YOURS!

Our Contemporaries
The Schools and Their Critics
(Star-Bulletin)

(Star-Bulletin)
Faults that now exist in the public
schools of Hawaii are there because
of the laxness of the general public
in not insisting that sufficiently large
appropriations be made to provide ade-
quatc teaching forces and for the
maintenance Of a proper degree of
supervision, says a committee report
to the chamber of commerce, which
clearly exonerates the department of
public instruction from all blame.
Recommendations for the establish
ment of Fairgrounds, owned, main
tanned and supervised by the govern
ment, and for the teaching of no langu-
age but English in any of the schools
of the territory in the first seven
grades, are SO obviously meritorious
that further analysis and comment is
unnecessary, except to say that The
Star-Bulletin indorses them as repre-
senting another forward step in Ha-
waits Americanization movement.
Our own judgment that the depart
ment of public instruction is doing all
that can be done with the funds made
available for it, is fully confirmed by
the committees report No suspicion
of laXity attaches to any of the ex-
ecutives of the department.
Vaughan MacCaughey, superintend
ent of public instruction, has invited
The Star Bulletin to make an investi.
cation of any or all branches of his
department. He has repeated what this
newspaper has known all the time,
that he seeks and welcomes publicity
concerning the activities of those en-
entrusted with the administration of
the schools, and that he does not
shrink from fair criticism, when facts
are not distorted or disregarded en-
tirely.
The Star-Bulletin feels now as it
has felt since soon after Mr.. Mac.
Caughey took office, that the public
schools Of the territory are efficiently
and honestly conducted, and that their
executive direction is now in more
capable hands than at any previous
time in the history Of Hawaii.
We feel that in saying this we ex
press the sentiments of the communi.
ty, except, possibly, those of an ex.
trenlely few individuals who are actu.
atod by personal animus arising from
thwarted and impossible ambitions, OF
by Unborn pessimism, or just by natur
al and general cussedness.
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1919-12-26
WHY WE ARE OVERLOOKED

The chief disadvantage to living in these Islands is perhaps due
to the fact that Hawaii is consistently overlooked when anything good
is being handed out to the rest of the nation. We get lett out OF prac-
ticaIy all of the federal appropriations except those for military and
naval purposes, and these we get because we happen to be where we
are. We get precious little that the states get in way of educational
and social beterment help and many other things.
Just as an example of how outside the pale we are may be cited
the big distribution of army foods and war materials which is now
going on on the mainland. Millions OF dollars worth OF surplus food and
clothing supplies, gathered together for the war, has been distributed
to all parts of the country and is being sold through the postohce de
partment to individuals at cost pnceS-5o percent or less than the pres
ent retail prices.
Millions of dollars worth of auto trucks, explosives, and machinery
adapted to road building is being distributed to states that have need
of such things.
But Hawaii gets almost none OF all this.
1t is true that a few thousand dollars worth of a limited variety
of army foods has been sent to Honolulu for distribution, but before
even this could be secured it was necessary for the county OF Honolulu
to borrow the money to pay for it from the governors contingent fund
and pay in advance. No other section of the country had to do this.
Hlo has been trying to get some of Honoulus apportonment,
but Honolulu refuses to turn any of it loose, and suggests that the Big
Island city rustic for its own supply if it wants any. OF course not
everybody on Maui would be averse to buying bacon at Is to 80 cents
a pound, or army shoes at $3.50 per pair, but there isn't much chance
of their having an opportunity to do it.
The supply has been so limited in Honolulu that public sentiment
has prevented a large part of the fairly wel-todo from buying, leaving
the opportunity more open for the class most seriously feeling the
high cost of living. But this has not been true in the mainland. There
everybody has been encouraged to take advantage of the bargains while
they last.
The main point in all this is that Hawaii ought not to be in this
position, and if we were really awake as a community she would not be.
If we were really represented in Washington as we should be represent
ed, Hawaii could not be, time after time, absolutely ignored. 1T is not
right and is most unjust. II we would only take the trouble to make
our sense of this unjustness heard we could do it.
It is alright to be independent. Maybe we are rich enough to be
able to ignore the money that is being distributed among the states.
But we can i'll afford to be ignored, not only in money matters, but in
most other ways as we'll And that's just the position we are in. 1t
is about time we walked up.

JAPANESE WORKERS IN
TAHITI THREATEN TO LEAVE

PAPEETE, Tahiti, Nov. 29-(Asso-
ciated Press)-Japanese workers in
Makatea Island, the rich phosphate is
land northeast of Tahiti, who have
struck for higher wages, threaten that
if their demands are refused they will
leave in a body for Japan.
Labor is scarce in the Islands. Sew
eral planters are competing for men
to go to some Of the outlying islands
of the archipelago and an agent from
Australia is here trying to recruit Ia
borers for the Solomon Island planta-
tons.
The merchants and planters have is
sued an appeal to the natives to re-
main here.

that if they don't their connection
with the territorial government shall
be settled, ought to be enforced to the
limit. And a similar order should be
enforced against municipal employees.
Failure of government employees to
pay their taxes has long been a scan
dial and a crying shame. Many men
seem to think that because they make
their living by working for the people,
they shouldn't be expected to pay
their taxes.
1t is not only regular employees of
the government who figure largely in
the list of ~delinquents. Many mem
bers of the legislature, in years past,
have had their m published as
among those whose obligations to the
public rst lightly on their consciences.
And we have had sheriffs and city at
torneys and policemen who didn't wor-
ry any more over the payment of
their taxes than do some Legislators.
If the plain, ordinary citizen doesn't
pay his taxes, his salary is garnisheed
or his property is levied on. The tax
assessor gets them all, unless they
work for the government and draw
their pay from the people.
It's about time thing were evened
up and that ~taX-eaters were all forced
to become taxpayers.

PROGRESS THE ARMY CAN'T STOP

Two men from the mainland have asked Governor Mccarthy for
a permit to establish a commercial aviation business in Honolulu. The
Governor was non-commitala and will probably be governed by the Opin-
ion Of the military authorities in deciding the matter.
1t is quite possible that the request Will be denied because Unc
Sam has a lot of things on Oahu that he does not care to have every
Tom, Dick and Harry or every Togo, Ishi and Mori looking down upon.
And this consideration may answer for the present
But it will not answer always. For aviation bids fair to soon reach
such an importance that to refuse to sanction flying here will be to
put Hawaii in the odChina class. Uncle Sam VIII have to cover his
big guns up. Besides there doesn't seem to be any valid excuse in this OBJ
lection anyhow. San Francisco might be called a fortified city, yet
commercial flying has come to b. a commonplace thing there already
1t will some day be an indispensable thing here.
