Japs Arc Ambitious. “The Japanese are ambitious to be- come tenants, to own land, to set up busineas, to enter a profession, to rise above the category of unskilled labor and as they individually achieve their ambition, they are, like the Portu- guese, participating more and more in the affairs of the islands, socially, educationally, politically. Further- more, they are all at work. There are few trifters and Idlers among them. There are now, approximately, 38,000 male and 27,000 female adult Japanese in the islands.

Few, if any are supported by public charity, nor are any begging in the streets. Their per capita sav- ings bank deposits rank third among those of the island races, being ex- ceeded by the Americans and Portu- glese only “All of which activity, laudable in itself, can be explained adequately on the basis of racial qualities, inherent in the Japancse, of patience, persist- ence, thrift, initiative, endurance, am- | Early HISTORY OF CHEROKEES Traditions of this Tribe Will be Depicted in Pageant First Week 5 of Junc.

Indeed, so well have the Japanese adjusted them- selves to island conditions, and so rapidly are they increasing in the number of Hawaiian-born children, that this group soon will have a ma- jority of the voters of the islands.” Table of Voters. The commissioner’s report then de- duces from a table of births of Jap- anese chiidren from 1898 to 1919 that 12,216 Hawalian-born Japanese will have berome old enough to vote by 1930; that 22,921 more will have bheen added to the list of eligible voters by 1940, making a total during a 22-year period of 35,137. Deducting 13 per cent. to cover possible losses by re- moval and death, the report estimates that by 1940 there will be an aggre- gate of Japanese voters in the terri- tory of 30,857, including 237 now reg- istered. Pointing to the fact that Japanese in the public schools of cent. of the whole, the report says this “indicates that the place in the elec- torate that the Japanese will occupy in 1930 and agaln in 1940 may, in- deed, be under-estimated.” The con- crete deduction then follows: “Whether or not the Japanese de- sire to achieve political control, with- out doubt, within a few years, they will be in a position to do so if they choose.” Interesting comparisons of the de- gree of intermarriage indulged in by different races in the islands next are give | precess of development several years by Prof. J.

Details of the pageant have been announced. Working without knowledge of tiie English language, Sequoyah was an old man when, at the end of twenty vears of labor, he gave to his tribes- men an alphabet. In two years the Cherokees were raised fromn virtual illiteracy to a degree of ecducation. and Sequayah’s achievement has been heralded as one of the greatest for- ward steDs in the history of the Amer- ican Indian.
