homesteader shall have the benefit of

now recognized throughout the Unit
ed States as a proper service due the

the enactment of legislation tending

Citizen Labor
Citizens of Hawaii are already reap
ing the benefits of the new opportuni-
ties offered them through the passage
of the law by a Republican congress
that all labor employed on federal
work in this territory shall be citizen
labor. Definite results are the best
proof of Republican ability and inten-
ton to fulfill party promises.
Public Education
The Republican party has always
stood for the protection and develop
ment of the American public schools.
The Republican party in Hawaii
stands on that principle today. 1t is
responsible for the guarantee of ade-
uuate support to the schools and of
adequate compensation for the teach

by pledged.
We favor industrial education in
the schools and the establishment of
vocational schools and pledge u sup
port to a revision of u educational
system looking to the closest co-opera-
ton of education with the industries
on which we rely for support.
To carry out such a school program
efficiently we recognize the necessity
for w%ellequipped teachers and, there
fore, we favor a high standard of pre-
paration for teaching.
We recognize our own responsibility
to participate in the education of the
Young Americans of alien ancestry.
We appreciate the difficulties confront
ing these young Americans, their lack
of family tradition in things American,
the claim of allegiance set forth by
the government OF their parents.
Solemnly we pledge u party to
the effort that through education in
the schools. through even-handed
Justice in the courts and through ev-
ery American institution in this ter
ritory, the citizens of the United
States here BORN or resident, what
ever may be their racial ~antecedents,
shall be trained to do their full duty
and to carry their full responsibility.
University of Hawaii
The University of Hawaii is an as
set of growing Importance and value.
We commend the progress already
made in training young men n wo-
men to take active part in the INDUS
tries of Hawaii and in civic affairs.
We pledge our continued interest and
support to the development of theu uni
yersity to the end that it may have
the necessary personnel and equipment
to care for the rapidly expanding stu
len body, and to extend the oppor-
tunities of university study 10 those
who are unable to attend as resident
students.
The University of Hawaii, through
the researches of it's scientific depart
ment, has helped to bring the light OF
hope and assurance of cure to those
afflicted with leprosy. This accom-
plishment of what had been declared
impossible should be followed up with
liberal provision for further research
so as to hasten the day when this
dread disease shall be wiped out in
Hawaii and the intelligent treatment
inaugurated here shall be spread
throughout the world.
Public Health
Believing hat the prevention of
disease is easier and economically
more desirable than attempts to cure,
we express our approval of such meas
ures as will tend to improve and con-
serve the health of our children. The
