not concerned to defend the Bank (against the various charges of unfair influence and pressure that are brought against it by Mr. Hoaking, the author of these artio es, but when he proceeds to include in his sweeping acousations the whole the British population of the For East, it is impossible to allow his charges and innuendoes to pass unchallenged—indeel, were some of the assertions contained in his foreword made concerning individuals instead of an entire population, we should not care for the task of defending him in a libel action. For instance," Noth- ing, however, surprised me more than the attitude of Europeans, living and working in Chins, to wards this subject (Squeezo."). One would expect them to be annoyed by it, to attempt to avoid it. I saw enough, however, to convince me that they were quito accustomed to it, and, in fact, seemed rather to prefer it.

Chinese and the Philippines. The sincere efforts of men to ensure the prosperity of the is lands are to be commended, bat the case is almost a hopeless one in so far as the labour problem is concerned. The natives are not forced to toil as beasts of burden, and thrift is unknown to thou- esade. They are provided with means of subsistence in their" tropical countries; they do not sigh for riobes. The fact that more luxuriant crops are to be har- vested now after many years la bour and enterprise by investors does not distab them. On the other hand the powers of the ad- ministrators are restricted... The court of appeal is in Washington, ond the senators in the capital- who have a very hozy idea of the condition of affairs in the Philip- pines would not lend an ear to any overtures for the coming of" the Chinese, even if he wore to improve the wealth of the country and the prosperity of the people.
