By EDWIN C. HEINKE Assistant Managing Editor, Indianapolis Times

HONOLULU, Aug. 5—This is a cry for help from the Hawaiian Islands. Weakened and riddled by Communist penetration, its economy upset by Communist power strategy and hard

hit by a three-months’ Shipping strike, Hawaii stands F

alone in the Pacific,

the attitude that the Harry Bridges longshoremen's strike is only a local labor dis-

of communism. EE oF The territorial legislature this week § agreed to give Gov. Ingram Stainback a 3 in % free hand in hiring strikers and personnel ’ of the struck concerns-to operate a govMr. Heinke . arnment stevedoring agency. But the Communist-led union remains defiant, insisting its men will not work for the government. Report after report has been prepared showing the Army and Navy intelligence “files are full. Dossiers of identified Communists gather dust in the Repartment of Justice and military archives. _Termed long ago “a perfect proving ground for true

Marxist action” and a test tube of communism, this vital

Pacific outpost of America appears to be a land forgotten by Washington. ’ Governor Paces Floor Gov. Stainback paced the Roor in his office at Iolani "palace here as he told me: : “This is not the problem alone of a provincial governor. - It is a world problem that affects everybody in the

__ United States.”

____ The governor. said he had been “preaching the communism issue for two years”; had tried in vain to arouse interest in Washington.

“Il talked with one high * official, " he said, “and |

pleadeds for: a thosough . investigation into Communist activities in Hawaii, and when I got through, he said to’ me, ‘Governor, I don't think there are many Communists out there.’ “I said, ‘No, but the ones that are Communists hold key positions in: labor unions;-the Democratic Party, the.
