The Hawaiian race la not "dying out," but in reality Is "marrying Itself out of exltitence," I according to a statement made here by Miss M. Hester Lemon, registrar of vital statistics. Although there has been no material increase in the death rate of pure- blooded Hawalluns during the past four years, the birth rate for the calen dur year 1921 showed a material de crease as compared with those of the four preceding years and indicated that Hawaiian men and women are de stroying their own race by marrying into other groups, yhe said. "It will he seen readily that this practice will tend to increase the part Hawaiian population and at the same time decrease the pure Hawaiian popu lation Insofar as the future is con cerned," she added. During the fiscal year ending June SO, 1921, there were 1(9 marriages be- twoen pure Hawaiian couples. In ad dltlon to these, 58 Hawaiian men mar- lied women of other races and 142 Hawaiian women were married to men of other groups. Illrths among pure Hawaiian families during the calendar year 1921 were 42 less In number than those registered during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921. PAYS PENALTY . SALT LAKE CITY, June' 9.

' ' CONGRESS, ALSO STATE SOLONS CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 9. Con gress and state legislatures generally were assailed today as enemies of or ganized labor by a resolution calling for a non-partisan political campaign this fallto elect candidates friendly tp labor, which was adopted unanimous ly ut the annual meeting of the metal trades department of the American Federation of Labor. ' ' President James O'Connell of the department was directed by the dele gales to visit congressional districts who30 representatives were termed antagonistic to the metal trade work ers and also authorized to participate actively In state campaigns. 1 - "For many months," said the reso lution, "congress has sneered ut and scoffed at the duly elected represen tatives of organized labor who have been charged by the wage earners with responsibility of securing neces sary and Justifiable legislation. As at present constituted congress has not represented the mass of the peo ple." , . i ... "What 1b true of congress, the res olution concluded, "is largely true of state legislatures."
