While it is true that the Maori race in the short period of a hundred years has had to try and adapt to the pakeha way of life, and many Maoris have made this transition successfully, yet it is a fact that too many Maoris in the younger age groups come before the Courts. The cultural factor is one which cannot be ignored, but I feel that the process of cultural adaptation is one which cannot be hastened and maybe it will take another generation or more before Maoris as a race are well adapted to the pakeha way of life.
