This law when passed will also apply to the Territory of Hawaii where other unusual and peculiar arrangements are carried on by the Japanese. This "gentlemens agreement" provided there was to be no increase in the Japanese population in these islands. The immigration officials there say that when a Japanese student goes out he registers as a Japanese. When he comes into the country he comes in as an American and no record is kept as to his entrance as a Japanese. The chart shows a graphic disappearing of Hawaiians. with whites in hopeless minority. and Japanese already risen to predominance.
