(Well-known Filipino Natioralist-)
YOU do not know the fighting spirit
i of the Filipino until you know
Pablo Manlapit!
He was born in Lipa, Batangas,
Philippine Islands, some Sc years ago.
No silver spoon in his mouth when he
was born, and lived not the life of
gilded youth; and it was well these
were so; the result was much in favor
in the moulding of his character. At
this writing there is this fair build
of man, less than six feet tall, mid
dle-aged, healthy, robust and ever
pleasant in his attitude toward life
whatever the circumstances are.
Years ago, when he was dallying
with his schoolmates in public school
in Tondo, Manila, not one of them
knew that some day, in a foreign land,
this classmate of theirs was going to
be dominant figure over situation
fraught with difficulties caused by
the exploitation of the masses, by
graft and merciless treatment Of the
poor laboring strangers by the pow
erful interests in Hawaii. The test
of a mans courage and character
comes at time when a crisis is at
hand. In the peaceful, care-free pas
times Of the youthful students, young
Pablo had no chance to reveal his gift
for leadership. But later in his man.
hood, he passed the acid test and
showed the courage and the fighting
spirit Enthusiastically Filipino.
On Sugar Plantations.
In February, 1910, he shipped to
Hawaii as a common laborer. He was
only nineteen years old then. For
three years he worked in the sugar
plantations. 1t was during that per-
iod that he realized the inadequacy
of wages paid the laborers working
in the plantations. The laborer, for a
hard days work of ten to twelve
hours--for twenty-six days (rain or
shine)--was paid the meager wages
of only $4,000 per month! Certain
ly, not commensurate with the labor
performed. This aroused his sense
of justice and the urge to ameliorate
the existing conditions became i'm
planted in his heart. He began to
prepare himself for the service of his
countrymen who were in servitude to
the big-moneyed men of the Hawaiian
Sugar Planters Association. Within
the next few years he applied his time
to the study of law. In December,
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1928-01-05

1919, he passed the bar examination
and in the same month obtained the
license to practice law in the district
courts of the Territory of Hawaii.
His first program was to put him
self to task, starting the agitation to
increase the wages of the laborers.
1t was his first big fight, and big
fight at that; and the people of the
Territory began to take notice of him.
Laborers of all nationalities were in
volved. The outcome was successful,
gaining fifty per cent increase in
wages for the laborers. At that time
there were 10000 Filipino laborers in
the Territory and $4,000 Japanese.
The wages increased from 500 to $50
per month.
Bosses Betray Workers.
! It did not last long, however. The
Vaccinations of the sugar planters
officials undermined this new wage
scale and before long, about eleven
months-it was reduced to $26 a
month. That, of course, drew the ire
of the Filipinos. Manlapit again was
prevailed upon by his countrymen,
who were virtually ne bestialized
victims of the exploiters. In the
meantime, Manlapit, aside from his
law practice, busted himself in organ
izing the high wages movement.
George Wright, outstanding Ameri-
can in the labor movement in Hawaii,
volunteered his services to the newly
formed organization. The Filipinos,
in recognition of his sympathetic at
titude towards the movement, elected
him to be co-chairman with Mr.. Man
lapit. All officers of this body gave
their services free, with no remuner-
ations whatsoever from any sources,
except travelling expenses and per
diems when on duty.
To solidify the strikers and to make
the plans concrete, Manlapit pub
lished weekly paper, Sang Bantay,"
as the organ of the High Wages
Movement. 1t was published in Taga-
log and in English, mostly in the
former.
New Demands.
The year 1924 was the year of the
crisis. Manlapit was determined to
recover for the laborers what had been
gained in the previous strike. He
started the active campaign to sup
port the movement. Within short
time he had gathered ten thousand
bona fide signatures of Filipino Ia
borers in the different plantations to
the petition which contained the fol-
lowing requests:
