RELEASED CONVICTS REPEAT

Investigation of recent burglaries, cases of theft and other SINH
lar breaches of the peace indicate that responsibility may be traced
in most instances to former convicts and in some cases to men who
have been working in the camps here before being released. When
their terms expire or in case of parole, it would appear, they are
sometimes turned loose on Maui without considering whence they
came o what they will do here when freed. Whether or not such
prisoners are given a ticket to the place where they lived Immediate
y before their arrests and convictions, this paper is not informed.
1t is true that the situation here differs much from the main
land, that there is a less stable population here, that the criminals
have perhaps drfted from some plantation into a town or city and
have no family ties or social associations worth the name. But that
can be no good excuse for Pleasing a man who has finished his term
or who may be paroed where he happens to be. If he were willing
to take a job in the fields of the nearest plantation, it would be differ
ent. The point that brings complaint is that undesirables from other
Islands are left on Maui, practically dumped here.
Convict labor has been very useful on Maui. There is no de-
sire that use of such labor shaull be discontinued, but, to the con-
trary, more such labor is desired. Maui public works and semi
public works have need of it. So the problem must be met either
by the discharge of all prisoners who may be released only upon
their being first returned to the penetentiary unless employed on
the Island from which they were convicted or else that a closer en-
tente be established between the county and territorial authorities
so that the former will be informed upon the release here of any
territorial prisoner and thus enabled to have a sort of surveillance
over such prisoners al suspicious characters
Entirely too much leniency is shown through the non-enforce
ment OF the immigration laws. An unnaturaized foreigner who
commits a crime becomes a burden to and undesirable resident of
the territory and the nation. Instead of being incarcerated he should
be deported forthwith. He has proved a failure in this environment
and should be sent back to the land of his birth. Were that rule

EFFICIENCY AND CLIMATE

From the remark frequently heard that men "slow down. after
a few years residence in Hawaii or that they have to make visits
to the mainland at frequent intervals to revive their energies it may
be seen how widely accepted is the assertion that mainanders work
harder, faster and more efficiently than do residents of the Islands
a corOary of such a theorem is that a person has to suffer the dis
comforts that arise from the rigors of hard winters, slip and slide
about on icy pavings and wade through snow and slush to be at
his best.
Ii one will look about with his eyes open he will find a very
large proportion OF the men OF Hawaii show no tendency toward
Slowing down. but on the contrary accomplish more in the dav
than do men similarly placed on the mainland. The men of affairs
IN EaWan accomplish as much as do the men of similar affairs away
from here and at the same time get more actual comfort and enjoy
ment out OF life. Not only do they handle efficiently their own
business affairs but they find or make opportunity to give attention
to public affairs. Men at the head of great corporations here will
put in longer hours of endeavor than those on the mainland and will
achieve more in the day.
Imagine the head of a company in New York getting from his
bed with the first dawning Of lights to go over the properties en-
trusted to him before breakfast. The businessman of Hawaii who
ten or II, kept a luncheon appointment from l to 2 or 2:3O and
closed his desk at 4, even if he drove at a furious pace for those
working hours, would be looked upon as RETIRED in the business
life of the Islands.
True it is that the social activities are less exacting here and
that amusement and relaxation, if mainland nights can be called
properly relaxation, are taken more quietly and moderately here
In that sense, residents of Hawaii certainly travel slower, but it was
not IN the sense that it was intended to use the expression ''slow
down."
a newspaper reporter covers a many times wider field in Homo
lulu than III a mainland city. There are editors in the Islands who
excel in energy and endeavOr and accomplishment their mainland
contemporaries. A contractor here has difficulties to overcome I'm.
dreamt OF elsewhere. Plantation employees put in days that would
appal men on similar salaries and in corresponding positions of re-.
sponsibility elsewhere. More is expected from one individual here
than "back east"
Whether or no a man "slOws down. after q few wears residence
in Hawaii depends on the man himself. If he does slow down if is
his Own fault and through his own inclinations. Many a person
comes here moved by stories of the "easy-going life in the tropics "
thinks of Hawaii as a place for idling. SubcOnsciousy he is moved

to come here that he may travel his life with small endeavor and at
slow speed. Subconsciousy his life is governed by that wish and
his consciousness is ever yielding to the persistent though perhaps
uneXpressed desire. Such a man slows down, inevitably. He would
protest against being called lazy but inwardly he is so.
The man who controls himself, who drives his own physical ma
chine, who exercises his mentality by his will does not and need not

not need chilled toes and a frost nipped nose for a spur. Conditions

self go he would retrograde, but man can be, if he will be, superior
to much Of his environment.
AS to the necessity of frequent trips back to the old home
the wish to go is largely responsible for the demand for a "change
of climate. There are men born in the Islands and who have not
left them or who have not been away for years who set an example
in energy and accomplishments for others who think they must have
a frequent stimulus in trips across the seas.
Exceptions are said to prove a rule, but if there are many ex
ceptions they establish a rule of their own. So in Hawaii there are
too many men who travel at high speed day after day, month after
month, year in and year out to sustain the contention that the elm
ate OF Hawaii and the environment necessarily slow a man down
Climate and environment are the excuses a person makes who al
lows himself to go back, for his Discrimination to travel forward al
ways at a good speed, not the reason that he slows down. The
reason is that he does not really want to exercise the powers he has
to the necessary capacity.

be found, which has not been the case thus far.
