States and set: up a government of their own. The conditions in. the. Hawaiian Islands. are. extraordinary. because the native population is diminishing.. and the white population. is not increasing. while an alien the Japanese. population. now equaling onehalf of the whole population.. is.. by reason of immigration- and by the birth rate.. increasing with great rapidity. So I do not know. whether the Senator had that in mind. when he asked. whether.. if the people "resident in the islands." declared for selfdetermination.. we wouldaccord it.. Of course we would. not. accord it.. if it was- the vote. of an alien. population.
