Such are the evils of incorporating the Philippines into our governmental and industrial system. but let us assume that there are no constitutional objections to the plans of the imperialists. assume that we can pass discriminating laws restricting the entry of their products and the migration of their peoples to this country. but facilitating the entry of our products and the migration of our people to theirs. Can such a system. founded on injustice. last?
