Conditions In Paradise of The Pacific Show Loyalty of The American Woman In Mating
Washington. March 10.—Does the riage.
Washington, March 10.—Does the American woman hold great loyalty and love for the American man than does the American man for the American woman?
Why does the American woman, living in a land people by all the races, insist upon marrying the American man, whereas the American man is only half as eager to choose one of his own nationality for his life mate?
These questions are suggested by a report, made public in Washington, on conditions in Hawaii. But the cold press reports emanating from a governmental printing office don't attempt to answer such queries.
But still there's a touch of romance in this Hawaiian report, prepared by the Department of the Interior for it shows strange conditions of life that prevail in the "paradise of the Pacific"—the south Sea Island group where there is probably one of the greatest racial mixtures the world has ever seen, even though all these people live under the American flag.
Set down midway in the Pacific, with six days and 2,000 miles separating her from her nearest neighbor, the little Hawaiian girl so readily to the flow of human currents as her uncle on the mainland.
The outstanding feature of Hawai'i's situation is the nature of her population. This population, totaling 263,666, is divided into four
Asiatics—Japanese, Chinese, Koreans and Filipinos.
Polynesians—Hawaiians, Caucasian Hawaiians and Asiatic-Hawaiians.
Latins—Portugese, Spaniards, and Porto Ricans.
Americans, British, Russians, Germans, etc.
Of this total population, 60.6 per cent is Oriental, the Japanese leading with 41.7 per cent of the population.
The Americans, British and all the Teutonic and Slavic elements come from 11.8 per cent of the total inhabitants.
But the most interesting phase of the report is the summary which indicates to what extent these various racial groups fuse through intermar-
"If a rapid fusion is taking place in this manner," says the report, "the Territory of Hawaii will be looked upon as being unique in this, namely, that a new race of people would be in process of creation. If, on the other hand, racial groups maintain group solidarity, the United States will struggle then we shall doublet witness a struggle in the future for supremacy."
Only thirteen American men and three American women married Asiatics; fifteen American men married Chinese-Hawaiians; and 223 American men married women of Hawaiian blood.
Here it points out that in the period which the investigation covered, only half of the American men in the island married American women, but practically all of the American women married men of their nation.
The 116 American women who did not wed American men in married order. British, Caucasian-Hawaiians, Germans, Hungarians. Portuguese. The 117 American women.
In numerical order American men married Americans, Portuguese, Caucasian-Hawaiians, Hawaiians, British, German, Chinese Hawaiians and Por-
Most Germans married other than Germans, preferring Americans.
Most Spanish men married Spanish women, although Spanish women married freely outside their nationality—a condition opposite from that.
In general, Japanese marry only Japanese, showing more racial allegiance than any other race on the islands.
The Korean women, without exception, married Korean men. The women of no other race in Hawaii had a like record for loyalty to their own men. Most Hawaiian men marry Hawaiians, but the native women marry freely outside their own race. The conclusion is that all the Korean and Japanese are fusing rapidly through intermarriage, but the Japanese group is maintaining its racial distinctiveness."

STANFORD TO STUDY FOOD
Herbert Hoover Will be Member Of Advisory Committee
The Carnegie Corporation of New York will establish a food institute at Stanford University for the intensive study of production, distribution and consumption of food, providing $700,000 for its support. The general field of the institute will be the problems arising after the food has left the farmer's hands. One of the problems to be the school will be the scientific study of the marketing and distribution of food products to eliminate wastes.
There will be three scientists appointed by the university to act as directors. Men of national prominence will be appointed to an advisory committee comprised of nine men. Herbert Howey, who first suggested the institute to the Council Corporation, will be a member of this committee.
Stanford University was selected as the place for the institute because of the available collection of documentary material relative to the geo-historical work in the Stanford Library. Work will start on the institute July, 1922.
Provision has been made for the admittance of specially qualified students.

Americans, French, English and Swiss Financiers Are Greatly Interested
FOREIGN CONTROL FOR AUSTRIAN INDUSTRIES
Berlin, (By Mail).—Austrian in dustry and in budytry is being foreignized. American, French, English Swiss and other outside capita are taking large interest therein. This is true, to a lesser extent, of German industry. In Austria the process of foreignizing business takes place through Austrian advice, namely: 1-conversion of a foreign branch of a concern into the main business office and leaving the Austrian offices as branches, the capital at the same time being converted into that of the main office; 2-allowing concern to remain Austrian, but with the main office in foreign; 3-infusion of foreign capital to increase the capital stock, but without giving the foreigner the controlling hand.
An instance of the first kind is that of the Laenderbank which has been converted into a French establishment converted in to a French franc, leaving its Vienna offices as "branches". In the second office, there are branches in the Alpine from concern. While the concern remains nominally Austrian—that is, it stays in the country—a stock is controlled by Italians. In this connection, it is inter-

As the third procedure, which has occurred in many instances, it may be cited that the Guaranty Trust Company and another American concern made investments of 40,000,000 crowns of the oldest of the ones banks in Austria, which found itself compelled to increase its capital extensively.
In Germany one of the most notable cases of capital increase, in which foreign capital participated, is that of the German General Electric Company (GEG), a large American General Electric was the outfit presenting the bulk of the new capital sought some months ago, but it was distinctly stipulated that the German corporation would remain German in control of the majority stock.
