Filipino Laborer
Make Hawaii Stepping
Stone to United States

Manila, p. l., May 22.-(By Mail)
About seventy-fve percent of the
Filipino laborers who go to Hawaii
to work on plantations there. even
tually expect to reach the mainland
Of the United States, according to the
report of Francisco Varona just sub
mitted to Governor General Wood.
MIR. Varona was commissioned early
in 1920 by former Governor General
Harrison to investigate and report on
the condition of Filipino laborers i'm
Hawaii.
According to Commissioner Varo-
mas report the Filipino laborers were
not treated by their employers in
the same manner as other nationals.
The Filipinos complained especially
OF harsh treatment received at the
hands of the foremen on plantations.
according to the report. These fore
men, the report says, were usually
Porto Rican's, Portuguese, Scotchmen
or Germans.
On the other hand the Hawaiian
planters complained that it was diff
cult to make the laborers work con-
stantly, the report says. This lack
of diligence and perseverance was the
reason why planters did not assign
Filipinos to work in the sugar
centrals or to other work involving
responsibility, according to the re-
port. The planters also complained
that the Filipinos failed to take prop
er care of the quarters furnished
them, this being the principal reason
why they were not given better
quarters in which to live. Continu-
ing Commissioner Varona said:
There were also many com
plants about the tendency of the
Filipino laborers to leave Hawaii and
go to the mainland of the United
States. About seventy-fve percent
of these laborers, mostly the young
er ones, sign contracts in the Philip
pines with the intention of making
Hawaii stepping stone to the Unit
ed States"
The total number of Filipinos in
Hawaii al the time the report was
prepared, was 1895 of whom T.
429 were field laborers.
