Puerto Ricans. etc.) -------------20.852 Hawaiian ----------------------- 19. 285 (Mixed bloods and Hawaiians are estimated on the basis of the 1940 census. as the 1950 census combines Hawaiian and partHawaiian into one category.) With a population so radically different from the rest of the United States. this Territory cannot possibly qualify as one of the United States. Its background is radically different from ours. Its history is very different from our own and that of our forefathers. The 65 percent nonwhite influx has been almost exclusively a labor force imported from other Asian countries to work the pineapple and sugar plantations of the few white immigrants. In any case. it is quite clear that the historical and ethnic backgrounds of Hawaii and the United States and even between the various Hawaiian peoples are radically different from each other. The language and the dialects are also different.
