La. Senator EIIender
Doesn't Like Howaiis
Sepio Population

Washington (ANP) - Senator
Allen Ellender ID. La, has ex-
pressed opposition to admitting
Hawaii to the Union because of
its heavy non-white population.
Just prior to opening hearings
on the Hawaii Statehood bill, Sen
ator Ellender told a radio audience
that only % percent of Hawaii's
population was Caucasian nine
years ago. And he added, II have
been told that since 1850 (census)
this percentage has diminished
considerable"
He also contended that the is
lands should not be admitted be-
cause of their economic condition.
If they were sufficient, he
said, they could maintain valid
claim to statehood. But they are
not"
Another Weak Excuse
Ellender further charged that
the territory is dominated by Com
munism. THE Senate should not
ignore the factor of Communism"
he said, despite the Interior Com
mittee's efforts to deemphasize the
effect this theology has had upon
the islands"
In spite of the opposition ex-
pressed in advance by the Louisi-
ana Senator, the subcommittee
on Territorial and Insular Affairs
opened hearings as scheduled, Wed
nesday. After a full day of testi-
mony, the subcommittee reported
the bill out for action by the full
committee at it's meeting next
Tuesday.
Senator Frank Church d.,
Idaho) contended that the terri
tory might seek an independent
status if the United States fails
to confer statehood upon it. The
Commonwealth Party would like
to see the islands united from the
United States. In this way they
could absolve all federal taxes and
grant full rights of self-govern-
want he apopboSi1a6
LET Them In-NOt Out"
ITO stay a colony is no more
acceptable to our fellow Ameri-
cans in the islands than it was
to our forefathers," continued
Church. IF we refuse to let them
further in, in due course they will
be let further out"
He pointed out that the econ
omy of the islands has been well
developed. Sugar and pineapple
are produced in abundance by the
best paid field workers in the
world"
While the Senate was pickering
over the Statehood bill, Republi-
cans in the House of Representa-
tives voted, Tuesday, to back the
measure. This action was taken in
a party conference, following the
lead of the House Republican Poll
cy Committee which voted earlier
to favor the bill.
1000 Miles From Frisco
Hawaii consists of some 20 is
lands located about 1000 miles
southwest of San Francisco. The
territory came to the United States
following the Spanish American
War and since has been under the
American flag.
