"B CLASS" OF ONE ROUND FLAT RACE HAN
The boycott is to be gadertaken by a organization entitled "The League of Justice," armed at the meeting in the Chinese Chamber of Commerce rooms. While officers were selected, their names are being kept secret until such time as the league Is of sufficient strength to warrant general publicity. Ovar foo of the representative cititus of Chloatowa were present at the meeting, all of whom algoed the roll of membership:
penditure de clearing dead wood and stop, which has been found necessary to enable us to deal with the diseases to which Hevea is liable. The investigations and reports of Mr. Mitchell, our mycologist, have fully satisfied your directors that the expenditure on this work spells economy in the long sun. With regard to the profit and loss account, the sals of produce and other receipts for the year amount to £93,877 116, ad, leaving a balance of profit, as shown, of £73,217 54, Cd. You will remember that the total quantity of rubber sold last year amounted to 181,450 lbs, and that Mr. Pears estimated the output for this year would te. 150,000 lbs. As a matter of fact, the total output of rubber practically reached that figure, being just a little under-viz, 249,747 lbs. The estimated crop for 1910 is" set down at at-350,000lbs. For the last 18 months the rubber market has been buoyant, and rising. With these fos remarks beg formally to move the first resolution That the report of the direc tors be adopted, and that the accounts laid before you be passed,"
AN EXPLANATORY STATEMENT. The reason for the boycott which is to be tempted and the objects of the league were ex- plained by one of the members, as follows |
"The Chiness, not only. In San Francisco, but throughout the country in general, have felt for some time that they were not being treated with the justice and aquality they have a right to expect. The Chinese residents of this country aa now somewhat of a factor in its commercial prosperity and the formation of 1uch an organisation as this League of Justice is necessary for the purpose of obtaining a pro per recognition of our rights.
