The Dutch, like the British, are a proud race, but in the eyes of other colonising nations they carry their pride of caste to abnormal lengths, when they refuse the ordinary privileges of citizenship to the very people who are best qualified to build up their overseas possessions. It is no new characteristic of the Dutch this attitude of aloof ness where native racer are concerned; rather it in an inherent fruit which apparently cannot be eradicated.
