Book Description
Excerpt from Neutralization, Vol. 2: American's Opportunity Much has been said of the excellent administration of Siam and the Straits Settlements, the former of which, of course, is a sovereign state, although the people are one of the weaker peoples. Yet it is the fact that by imported labor the natives are almost completely shut out from industrial opportunity. In South Africa this menace has aroused remonstrances which have moved the British Govem ment to efforts to restrain the introduction of foreign labor at the expiration of engagements already entered into. Jealous as the great nations and their colonies are of the entrance into their territories of such labor as the Chinese and other alien races supply (even rigidly excluding, as is done by the United States, the entrance of any form of it under contract), the weaker peoples have been subjected to the competition of imported labor almost without restraint. We should prepare for the day when the aegis of international law may be so ex tended as to protect, as their protest makes itself heard, the nations who are suffering in a manner that must otherwise lead to their final extinction.
