HOW HAWAII DOKS IT
For ji good many years citizens of the United States have
justified their country's refusal to admit Japanese immi
grants by declaring that tho Japanese, being of n different
nice, cannot be assimilated in our civilization.
For all we. know this is perfectly true. Vol William
Philip Sinims, famous foreign corrcspondeiil, sends in a story
from Honolulu that puis a new aspect on the matter.
In Hawaii there are many thousands of Japanese. In
deed, they ctinstil iiio I ho l.-inrest vacial group in the island.
Some of them nre immigrants from Japan, but many more
were born in Hawaii and are, consequently, American citizens.
Now Simms reports that almost without exception these
Hawaiian-born Japanese are extremely proud of their Ameri
can citizenship. Vl'hey wear American clothes, live in Ameri
can houses, eat American foods and follow American cus
toms. .They speak Knglish perfectly, and usually use it in
preieii'iit'e to Japanese.
Anieiican-boin residents of Hawaii, it develops, look on
these Japanese citizens of the island territo, v as a valuable
conscientious gnaip of popl... There is no racial feeling in
Hawaii; children of all races mingle in th,. schools just us
adults or all races mingle in the business world of Honolulu,
and dilleronces in creed and color go largely unnoticed.
Sinnns (litotes a Honolulu business man as follows: "All
this means that in time there will be a distinct tvpe of Ameri
can citizen out here in Hawaii known, perhaps, as the mid
I acific, just as we now know type divisions in the continental
"l,C() Wales tis southerners, middle westerners, New F.ng--'aiideiy,
and so on."
News of this kind seems to shod a new light o the
Uiestitm of America's ability t "assimilate" t., J,,,,,,,,,.,,,.
Possibly it might not work on the mainland; but Hawaii
seems lo be doing it very well.
