CORRESPONDENCE
LEAGUE OF BRITISH WHITES.
(To the Editor,
Hongkong Telegraph.)
Sir, With reference to Major Cassel's letter yesterday, I have not discussed Major Cassel or his League, but I should like to assure the individual. in question that have no intention of jolning his League whose very name calls forth ideas of racial prejudice.
I am not ashamed of my ideas, and I do not think that reserving the right to stand up to one's op ponents instead of cringing to them implies a threat. I notice that the sponsor of the League of British Whites, in great humility believes in turning the other cheek also. I do not know, anyhow, why anybody should imagine from my lotters that I should be connected, either in the past, present or fu- ture, with this League.
