KEEP HAWAIIAN ISLANDS
AMERICAN IS PROBLEM

Honolulu, T. H.-(A. P.)-There is
no possibility of Americanizing the
Japanese now in Hawaii who were
born in Japan, ard aliens who are in
eligible to citizenship should be ex-
cluded from the islands in the fu-
ture, according to opinions expressed
here by Representative Charles F.
Curry, of California. Mr.. Curry is
chairman of the house committee on
territories, and he has been investi-
eating conditions in the islands for
the last month.
Nearly all of the Japanese and
other orientals here who are educated
in the common schools are to a great
extent Americanized, with the excep-
ton of those who come under the
alien influence in the language
schools, bu. that influence is counter
acted to great degree by their con-
tact with American teachers in
American schools, he added.
"Orientals who come to Hawaii
under the law should continue to re-
ceive fair and square treatment, but
an immediate stop should be placed
upon the bringing in of the so-called
tails who abandon Buddhism or other
religions of Asia should be encour-
aged by their Christian friends
Referring to the future of the terri
tory, he declared that Hawaii's out
standing problem is to keep the is
lands American, but there is no rea-
son why Hawaii should have a com
mission form of government under
existing conditions" In giving his
of the industries of the
territory, Mr.. Curry stated there is
not much of a labor shortage in the
islands; that there is no other place
in the world where labor is treated
as well; that the sugar industry has
not been developed to the limit that
the present annual production of
canned pineapples could be doubled
if sufficient care were taken, and
that the Japanese monopoly of COM
mercial fishing should be stopped
He emphasized the need of mill
tary and naval preparedness for Ha-
waii, with the remark that "you have
about $4,000 enlisted men here; you
ought to have twice that many"
Curry, after an investi-
cation of the homestead lands on the !
sland of Molokai, where the homes
commission is endeavoring to re-
labilitate the Hawaiian race, said that
he project is sound and should be !

CANNOT FORCE

MELLON SEES GLOOMY SITUAT.
ION In EUROPE-REPARAT
TANGLE FAR FROM SOLUTION

Washington-(A. P.)-The Ameri-
can government probably will make
no immediate effort to hasten negoti-
ations of debt funding agreement
with its foreign war time debtors as
a result of information brought back
to the treasury today by Secretary
Mellon.
Determination upon such a policy
was virtually assured when it be-
came known that Mr. Mellon, who
has just returned from two months
vacation in Europe, would remain in
the cabinet He conferred with Presi-
dent Coolidge during the day.
Pessfmistic on Debt
Mr.. Mellon, who is chairman of the
American debt commission, was de-
clared to be pessimistic regarding
completion in the near future of ad-
ditional funding settlements. He was
reported as believing, after his study
of conditions abroad, that the pres
ent was not a good time to attempt
inquiries as to what the foreign gov
ernments contemplated in the way of
repaying the American loans.
He also was said to be of the
opinion that legislation prolonging
the life of the debt commission, due
to expire in year, would be neces- !
sary.
Taking a gloomy view of European
affairs, politically and economically,
the secretary was said to see no
hope of an immediate settlement of
the reparation tangle and to believe
that until that question is disposed
Of there is little chance Of improve
ment in Europe's economic situation.
The connection between the involved
reparatiOns problem and the repay
nent of debts to the United States,
by France, was declared

CONCRESSMEN
STUDY TAXES
PARTY LEADERS PROCEEDING
WITH CAUTION DUE TO
BONUS DEMANDS
MELLON PLAN FAVORED
ENTIRE PROGRAM OF TAX REvl.
SION BY CONGRESS. AWAITS
COOLIDGE MESSAGE

Congressional leaders,
irrespective of party, are proceeding
with caution in their consideration of
tax revision and the related question
of soldier bonus. Among the many
conflicting opinions, only one stands
out-that precipitate action on either
proposal is to be avoided.
In the opinion of practically all of
the leaders. Republican, Democratic
and Republican-Progressi Secretary
MELONS announcement that the ma
tionul tax bill can be reduced by ap-
proNimatcly S323. 100000, has stirred
such general demand for tax reduc-
ton that Congress will be obliged to
enact some sort of a revenue revision
measure. But tax cut ut the expense
of the soldiers bonus is certain to
meet with determined opposition in
both houses.
Suggestions already are being put
forward that neither of the two pieces
of legislation need he sacrificed at the
expense of the other. Pointing our
that the bonus bill vetoed by President
Harding called for an expenditure of
only SSO0OO,oOO the first year, propon-
ents of II bonus argue that ii is posi-
bic to enact that measure and ut the
some time make a very substantial cut
in the tax burden.
Before committing themselves dcfi-
nitely on either subject most leaders
ut the capitol await two cVcnts-a def
mite determination of how the Senate
and House are going TO lire up on the
organization votes and the delivery of
the first annual message of President
Coolidge. These two things of neces-
Sity must be important factors in the
final Legislative plans, certainly so far
aS the Republican organization Is con
ccrncd.
There is an impression at the cap
itol that the President will devote
considerable portion of his message
to tax reduction and his recOmmendu-
tions are expected to follow in gen
eral the plan recently outlined by
Secretary Mellon. The executives po-
sitiOn with respect TO the bonus re-
mains n subject of speculation. Some
White House callers have gained the
impression that his attitude is not un-
like that of President Harding. but
even they are uncertain whether he
will present any recommendations as
10 soldiers compensation.
The chief concern of admnistra-
lion leaders with regard to tax leg
islatiOn is as to what sort of Il bill
could be put through Congress. Most
of them are inclined to favor the Mel
Ion program. but they are not at all
certain that it can be translated into
legislation. The prOgrcssivcs among
the Republicans in both the House
and Senate are planning definite pro-
grams of their own and the Democrats
are known to favor some revision
plans which are not included in the
Mellon proposal.
While they are in favor of tax re-
duction, several of the new senator's
from the West have gone on record
against any plan that will eliminate
the soldiers bonus. Senator Ship
stead, Farmer-Labor, Minnesota, de-
Clared against taX-reduction If IL
means the death of the bonus, while
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, Montana,
said he was for the bonus above
everything else
