What is our tenure of Pearl Harbor? We have been ordinarily maintaining there a garrison of 200 men. The total white population of those islands is about 7.000. but there are a hundred thousand citizens of another power15 alien Asiatics to 1 citizen of our own country in this priceless. this pivotal possession of our nation! Clearly we have no tenure of the Hawaiian Islands unless we can control the water around those islands so that we can land Americans there whenever occasion may demand. On the contrary. today a foreign power controls the water around those islands. and not one additional American could put foot in the Hawaiian Islands. without the consent of this foreign power.
