OPEN FORUM
SCHOOL SURVEY COMMISSION
THANKS ISLAND PEOPLE

IFlHINNS lSLAND
Editor Maui News:
My dear Sir
Permit me to say to your readers
on behalf of the members of the Fed
eral School Survey Commission, now
oon to conclude it's work, that we APP
preciate very deeply the welcome
which the citizens of the Territory
have given us. Complicated though
the problems of the Islands may be,
our task has been made relatively easy
through the fine spirit of cooperation
which every one has expressed.
The attitude of the Governor and of
Territorial officials toward the work
of the Commission has been most
sympathetic and helpful. We have
particularly appreciated the frank way
Schools, the teachers, and other school
officials of the Territory have respond
ed to Il queries. All have given all
the information we asked for without
HSSlIdJlOn OF reservation
The report comprising our discus
sion of the problems and our econ
mendations is now rapidly being form
ulated and will soon be filed with the
United States Commissioner of Edu-
cation at Neutrality-suspicious. of

the government printing office and is
sued as a government document for
free circulation among the citizens of
the Territory and among interested
persons in the States. 1t will doubt
less be ready by the time the special
session of the Legislature c%onvenes.
While the report will discuss very
frankly conditions having a bearing on
the educational work of the Islands
as the Commission views them, never
theless it will be done with a due ap-
probation of the difficulties which OBJ
tain. A program of reorganization and
of improvement is offered, which will
require a period of years to execute
fully but which the Commission feels
will be a proper goal toward which
to work.
may add without improperly that
while the Commission feels that there
is much to do before the educational
department can be made as effective
as it should be that the situation is
full of hope and hat activities have
already been initiated which, if carried
to full fruition will go far toward solv-
ing the unique problems of these
beautiful Islands.
Thanking the newspapers of the Is
lands also for their splendid endorse
ment of the work of the Commission,
and expressing the hope that they will
further support whatever in the re-
port they find of worth.
Sincerely yours,
FRANK f. BUNKER,
Director Federal School Survey
Commission.

The Federal School Survey Commits
sion is going to recommend drastic
changes in the school system of Ha.
wall. "The members of the school
survey had been here only a few DAYS
when they recognized the needs of an
entirely different system of education"
says Superintendent MacCaughey.
We have a Course of Study that is
not fitted for the needs of the children
here, principally of foreign parentage."
That this difference in children of
foreign parentage" from these of
other p~arentage" is a biological one.
we are not informed, but we are told
the new curse will turn out a lot of
students fitted for work with their
hands in shops (?) and FIELDS. "The
lass OF pupils we have here should be
taught to fit themselves for the great
needs of this country's agriculture
and industry" says the Superinten-
dent.
Insother words, what the Superin-
tendent means is thac the plantations
need labOrers, and what is the use OF
pussy-footing the question? So here
after we may expect an abundant SUP
Iiy of "agriculturists'' turned out Of
our public schools instead of white
collar job" students.
Honolulu's morning paper claims
that on account of the fault of the
present course, so many young men
run to politics." Are we to infer from
the proposed changes in the school
curriculum that hereafter there will be
no more politics" for want of "politi-
clans? What a boon! But such will
not be the case, and again the Super
intendent to the rescue for he
has given us advanced information
from where this supply must necess-
arily come. Listen!
"The small white population-cap-
italistic, mercantile and professional
100000, as c%ontrasted with the pre-
ponderant Asiatic, Hawaiian, and
South European population ........-has
provided private academies for it's
children. These finishing schools have
been largely cultural, academic and
esthetic, With Little Vocational En-
phasis."
If we read correctly between lines
we see that the aim is to check the
alarming advance" of those from the
ranks of the common herd" and turn
the tide back into the canefields. The
private academies will provide for the
children of the capitalistic, mercantile
and professional, while the public
schools will become the labor recruit
ing bureau for the sugar plantations
from the ranks of the "preponderant
Asiatic, Hawaiian and South European
population"

TEMPORARY JUDGES

If the Judge of a circuit court is i'll or disqualified for duty from
any cause, the organic act provides that a judge from another circuit
may be appointed by the supreme court to take his place. Blu. if such
other Judge be not available there is no other resource
This is an unfortunate situation and has caused a good deal of
trouble in court circles at various times. 1t would seem that the Con
gress would willingly rectfy the difficulty if the matter were brought to
its attention. If the supreme court OF the chief justice had authority
to make a temporary appointment of a qualified attorney from the terri
torial bar it would work to the advantage of all concerned.
For the past month or more Judge Burr, of the second circuit court
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1920-01-23

has been seriously i'll. 1t is uncertain when his physicians will counter
ance his resumption of work. In the meaime court work continues to
accumulate on the calendar. Judges of the other circuits are all busy
and could come only to handle emergency cases occupying but a few
days time. If Judge Burr needs a rest of a number of months he
should be able to take it without having to feel that the territory and
public were being Inconvenience or the work DELAYED.
The bar association presumably might very properly act upon this
matter and request Hawaiis legislative delegation, now enroute to
Washington, to take the matter up with view to having the organic act
amended accordingly.

A magnificent park dedicated to the public is the hobby of w. d.

death. Hobbies like Mr.. McBrydes deserve to be encouraged.

The board of supervisors is putting through an ordinance limiting
the speed of all solid tired vehicles to IS miles per hour. This is prob
ably good. But the automobile club, the chamber of commerce. the
grand jury, and a lot of private citizens are wondering what has be
come of the antiparking ordinance which would prevent the use Of the
public streets by rent service cars as their private garage.
