LIHUE Equal Treatment And Immigration One of llie most iei'sist'nt an well as one of the most threaten ing snags blocking the way to a successful League of Nations is the mutter of "equality of race treatment." The Orientals, led by Japan, insist ou this equality of race treatment, and large masses of Americans especially, franti cally resist such a concession, mainly because they do not under stand what Japan means by the term, and what she really wants. So says Sidney L. (lulick in an intelligent article in the New York Imlrpvmlvnt. Sidney (Julick Npent years in Japan in a re sponsible position on the faculty of the Kvoto Doshisha I'nivi'rsity, and consequently may be supposed to understand the trend of Jap tuiese thought and Japanese poli cies. He maintains that '"equality of race treatment" means, to most Americans, unrestricted Oriental immigration, the country swamp ed by cheap labor, the lowering of the standards of living, the dilu tion of American ideals, elc, and naturally Americans take fright at such a program and set them selves sternly against it. This is all a mistake. All that Japan asks is that the Orientals be treat ed like the other races. Our immigration laws are mani festly vicious, unfair and unten able. We have been keeping an open door, and extending a glad hand, to a proletariot and rifratl immigration on one coast while we have insultingly excluded it on the other. We have established shape of eyes and length of hair as the shibboleths of immigration and have thereby admitted hordes of undesirables, and kept out many whom we might well have admitted. The natural and rational solu tion of the immigration problem is to keep out the unfit, and unde sirable, wherever they come from, and whatever the shape of their eyes or the length of their hair, and let in those who are fit and desirable by the same standards. And such a rational policy of im ,migration must meet with favor ou all sides. The program of immigration as proposed by the National Com mittee in brief outline is as fol lows: Labor immigration should be prohibited for a period of two years or more, as an insurance measure against the vast flood of .immigrant labor that it is expect ed will pour through our gates when transportation is again well established. Following that, there should be a qualilied and limited admission of those person ally tit on the basis of their relat ion to the actual citizenry of that particuplar race already Ameri canized say 10 per cent a year. The idea is that, for instance, the resident Italians, who are already Americanized, are the ones to as simulate and train up into Ameri can life and standards, the incom ing immigrants of their own race, and that ten percent, or there abouts is all that they could handle. This it is claimed would work most beneficially and automatical ly. It certainly looks to be a whole lot more sensible suul rati onal than the hit or miss policy we have been pursuing for years. :0: In order for Polo Kilauea Hall Kapaa Hall Waimea Hall Tuetday, June 3 Thurtday June S Saturday Juue 7 Tip Top Theatre Eleele Hall Makaweli Hall Wednetday Juee 4 Friday June 6 Monday June 9 BSWE3 H E KOiWiAiMCE o R is i.V. . vi J,.kn4J The Last and Concluding Chapter "TARZAN OF THE APES" From the Book by Edgars Rice Burroughs Excitement magnifi- renre and wild heau- ty portray a screen - . mf.lt. 1.. - .
