Hunker, of Washington, hull recently surveyed education con s in Hawaii, In a preliminary re- rt declared that the "momefhtum" of Phe Japanese race in Hawaii puts all i"hfr racial groups out of the running in respect to numbers and that the omentum If continued' will carry-' the f-oanese race into an increasingly jnriinaiit numerical position, giving heir Ilavvaiian-born progeny in 1930 bout 2" per cent of the electorate; of ,,. , territory. The report which, is freely irrterspers- , vith tables of figures obtained from federal and territorial official sources nd from' the office of the Japanese Consulate general ln Honolulu, says in 'n'ith an actual population now in ,hf islands of 114,137 (1919), as report- hv tli.'

Jt Is clear that the Jap-r has acflnired a momentum tne' i -- . which !'ts all the other groups out of ',1,0 running- wnn. resiiBti iu jiuiifuora. "That tliis momentum inevitably will rv th, Japanese race into, an in dominant numerical posl- ,inI1' if continued, is clearly shown by ilfi from Information ob tained from the office of the Japanese consul general and from the records of n-riinrhLl board of health." Pealing with the paralleL presented hv the methods of adjustment to island influences -represented oy tne fortu- and the Japanese races, the re rort says: "While both groups were oriinailv brought into the islands to MtUfv tiie -need for cheap labor on the inntations. there is with both a pro-. .i lendenrv to seek a better eco-i nnsltinn bv breaking away from ,he plantations and engaging in other nativities giving promise oi a ireer una more ample life. ; , ThP Jauanese are ambitious to be com? tenants, to own lands, to et up business, to enter a profession, to rise t" m tfn-nrv of unskilled labor and as tliev individually achieve their ambition, they are, like the Portugese, participating more and more in the af fairs of the islands, socially, education ally' politically. Furthermore they are all at work. There are few triflers and idlers among them. There are now approximately 38.000 male and-27,000 female adult Japanese in the islands. , table, based upon information' ob tained from the Japanese consulate peneral shows that 50,149 of them are omploved in gainful occupations. "It should be said in fairness' that there are fev; Japanese children jn the juvenile courts and in institutions for delinquents; and there are proportlon- iiv verv few Japanese among the lnhnr eancrs and in the jails Fpw. if any are supported by public hnr'itv nnr are any beerging in the ctroots T-t.oir. ner nanita savings bank de posits rank third anions those of the icMi rapes, heine exceeded by tne Americans and Portugese only. "All of which activity, laudable in Itself, can be explained adequately on -tiie basis of racial qualities, inherent ln the Japanese, of patience, persist r,no thrift initiative, endurance, am bition, group solidarity, coupled with astuteness, which give them the ability to get on where other failed. Indeed, so well have the Japanese adjusted themselves to island conditions, and so rapidly are tw increasinc: in the number of Ha wai'in horn children, that this group soon will have a majority of the voters The commissioner's report then de- births of Jap an esp children from 1898 to 1919 that i mk Haw:iiian-horn Japanese will have become old enough to vote by mn: that 22,921 more will have been added to the list of eligible voters by 191". making a total dtiring a 22-year period of 35.137.

Taking up the tale, the other woman tenderly explained that, in order to ob tain the benefits of the proffered mira cle, i would be necessary for the mother to perform an act of faith by handing over her worldly possessions, for, she asked, "Are not your dear ones more precious than gold?"
