Racial Melting Pot

Hawaii has been called the melt
ing pot of all races. I do not con-
slider it to be a melting pot, but
rather feel that it should be called
a mixing bowl. The native Ha-
waiians have almost lost their
identity through inter-marriage,
but there are 10000 Japanese in
Honolulu, 10000 Chinese, 10000
Filipinos, and whereas a few thou
sand of the above inter-marry,
they have by no means melted to
the extent that they have lost their
identity. Most of the wealth of
the Islands is already in the hands
of the American whites, who in the
early days married the rich Ha-
waiians. These whites are mostly
descendants of the early American
missionaries. It is jokingly, but
truly said, that the missionaries
arrived there in 1920 with a ship

Hawaii
Sahara of the
South Seas
By R. E. "Uncle Bob" Bolton
Concluding Article)


When I talked with a number of
the Negroes in Hawaii I was sur
prised to learn that many of them
had migrated from Haiti. That
brought to my mind a strange
phenomena about Negroes in gen.
eral. They are very poor adven-
turers. Talk with dozens of them
in our own northland and you'll
find that either they were trans
ported here during the war to fill
in labor shortage, or they were
sent into various sections to work
on the railroads. Many individuals
will tell you, "Well-my cousin
Charlie was up here and he wrote
and said dat he wuz doing quite
well and I come on up furst and
after I gifts a job I sont back and
got de WIFE,"
I simply choose this way of say
ing to many of you that there is
Hawaii where many of you could
find your pot of gold if you are
trained in some given field, for
even cooks and maids get $40 a
month to begin with and there is
huge shortage of domestic help
there also. An experienced cook
can easily get 500 month. There
also is South America, Samoa,
Australia, and Russia where many
of you could prosper and enjoy the
fruits of real manhood, but who
among you will have the nerve that
Chatwood Hall (Homer Smith,
had when he gave up his job as a
postal worker in Minneapolis and
went to Russia where he holds a
high Governmental position?
The Negroes who went to the
Islands from the U. S. in most
cases had jobs assured them be-
fore they arrived there. Negroes
there are civil engineers, school
teachers, architects, taxi drivers,
doctors, lawyers, and domestics.
Most of them have completely lost
their race consciousness and make
no effort to associate with each
other.

WAYMAN A. NJ. E. CHURCH
Rev. E. A. London, Pastor
Hi-Lites

The Lenten period has brought
a slack in activities to Wayman.
Rev. London still continues his
good work and inspiring sermons
and the members and friends are
receiving great spiritual benefit.
Announcement has been made of
Holy Week services to be held in
the various churches during week,
April 10 to Is. On Wednesday
evening, April Is, the services for
Minneapolis observance will be
held at Wayman at 8 p. m. We are
urging all members and friends to
come out and take part in the
service.
The Sunday School held an cleo
ton to select delegates to the An
nual Young Peoples Congress
which is to be held at st. Peter
A. M. E. Church, on July 5, 6, z,
1888. The two delegates elected
were Mrs. M. Hill and Mr.. Wesley
Whitaker. We regret that we
failed to report new member last
Sunday evening, March 81. We are
glad to welcome to our midst Miss
Opal Hill, who comes to us from
the Zion A. M. E. Church in Paris,
Missouri.
The Busy Bee Club wishes to
thank all patrons of their April
FOOLS Party which was held last
Friday evening. All present en-
joyed themselves immensely. The
Eureka Club met Wednesday at
p. m. in the new home of Mrs. L.
Cobb, president, at 534 Girard
Ave. No. This organization has
been making plans for a novel en-
tertainment in the near future.
The date has not yet been an
nounced. The Stewardess Board

load of Bibles. The natives had the
land and they had the Bibles. Now
the natives have the Bibles and the
missionaries have the land.
You know too well the white
mans treatment of the Indians.
The huge sugar trusts and the
pineapple monopolies exploited the
natives in the same manner. I
should say in all fairness that the
early Hawaiians didn't seem to
care much for civilization such as
we know it, and are happiest with
their music and their beautiful
dances and would rather not both
er with all the hate and hurt we
seem to feel is so necessary in our
so-called civilization. The white
man has to have someone to hate,
so in Hawaii it's the Japanese.
When he talks to you about them
he refers to them as "Dam Japs. !"
But he always talks in whispers,
for the japanese are the cleverest
race on earth.
In Germany Hitler forces his ma
ton to be race conscious with the
tip of his sword. The Japanese
need no leadership. They stick to-
gether automatically. They mi
grated there from the Orient and
worked for zoe a day until they
learned their way around. But
soon they formed their own cor
porations upon a gentleman's
agreement and by not signing any
papers of Incorporation they save
thousands of dollars of taxes which
white firms have to pay. The white
man claims that they will work for
you, learn your business and then

SPONSORS VOCATIONAL
GUIDANCE PROGRAM

The st. Peter A. M. E. Youth
Council will sponsor a vocational
guidance program in collaboration
with the Minneapolis Urban
League Sunday, April 10, at 8
p. m.
Miss Barbara Wright, head vo-
cational counsellor of the Minneap-

express their views on vocational
guidance in public schools and its
effect on Negro youth.
The vocational film, "We Work
Again." will be shown also. This
film shows the Negro at work on
WPA projects in all classes of
work, from the unskilled jobs to
the white collar positions.
Rev. C. F. Stewart will preach
the Palm Sunday sermon at the
morning hour. Rock CAM will be
the guest artist for that service.

undersell you to your own custom
ers. But the white man forgets
how he laughed up his sleeve when
he felt he was getting rich off of
their cheap labor.
1t would be the grandest lesson
imaginable for the 100000 Negroes
in Chicago to see what the 10000
Japs in Honolulu have acquired in
far less than the seventy-three
years we have been free in this
country. So I say to my own race
put your shoulders together
somehow and acquire some indie
pendent wealth, some race pride,
some industries, some elected off
GERS in our government, and the
very man who pretends to hate you
so much will afford you more re-
spect than you have ever dreamed
of.
FOrty-ninth State
Hawaii at present is making an
urgent appeal to Congress for
statehood. Hawaii's industry, edu-
cation, health statistics, and in
ternal revenue entities it to state
hood-more than 81 of our present
states at the time they were ad-
mitted. However, the biggest ques-
ton involved is with the thousands
of expatriates to be found in the
Islands. They have lost their Japa-
nese and Chinese citizenship, but
haven't yet qualified as American
citizens. This condition is not
wholly their fault and am sorry
I don't have space to go into this

question in detail. / wish to say
that these Orientals are complete
ly loyal to our flag and have be-
come so Americanized that they
would be as out of place back in
the Orient as we would be back in
Africa.
May ] say in conclusion that you
must plan to visit these Islands? ?
If your stay is to be short you
must pay no attention to the
mechanisms of government, of
monopolies and racial peculiarities,
but you must breathe deeply of the
freedom and romance of the land.
Where else on earth will you find
city that builds huge concrete
platforms high up on the side of
a mountain where on moonlit
nights lovers worm their way up
to it in cars and park all night I'M
der the stars if they so desire? Not
only are the people there unpreju-
diced, but many of the native ones
don't know that there is any
prejudice anywhere else on earth.
It is my fondest wish that you will
some day give yourself your great
est treat and visit the freest spot

year, despite the deluge of rain, the
program went on and was enjoyed
by a large gathering of members
and their friends. This year, with

was another happy occasion for the
members, who came in large num-
bers to enjoy the beauties of ma
ture as arranged by the chairman of
the day, Mrs. Harry Fl. Brakeley and
Miss Ida Draper and their commit
tee. The platform had again been
TRANSFORMED to give a lovely picture
Of delightful spot in a garden.
Under a lowering dOgwOod tree
were arranged garden chairs and a
stool, on which were placed a knit
ting-bag and magazine, which had
the appearance of having been left
behind, because the pOssessor had
lust been called away on a short err
rand. A greer background made the

stand out more sharply. Besides this
