FILIPINO LABORERS
CHILDREN EDUCATED

HONOLULU, May 26.-(U. PD-,
The children on the island of Bohol,
Philippines have for several years
been taking nearly all first prizes in
Philippine school contests.
In searching for the reason for this
it was recently discovered by Philip
pine authorities that most of the chill
dren had gone to school for some
time, or begun school in Hawaii
where their fathers had taken their
families for time while they obtain
cd work as laborers in Hawaiian
fields.
Hawaiian interests are planning on
obtaining figures concerning the af-
fair, in order to show that the chill
dren of Filipino laborers have every
opportunity for education in the pub
lie schools of Hawaii il their fathers
want TO come here and work on the
plantations. Next TO the japanese,
the Filipino laborers are the best-in
the islands.
