Never had I seen a more democratic peoplepeople who are dedicated by their very nature and environment to the principles of democracy. Nor. Mr. Speaker. had I ever seen a more patriotic people. Wherever I wentto Oahu. to Hawaii or to the smaller islandsI found among people of Polynesian. European. and Asiatic origin a uniform devotion to America and all that it means. I can only say that never in my lifeand I think never in the history of this countrydid a people more thoroughly and completely earn the right to be fullfledged citizens of the United States. Hawaii came into the Union as a matter of right.
