President. I observed in the speech of the Senator from Colorado -and I have looked it up to see if I was correct about itsome remarks he made in regard to Chinese labor in which I think he must have overlooked the facts as they are. The Senator from Colorado said: As it stands today Cuba may import Chinamen or Japanese or any other Asiatic servile labor that they see fit in any numbers they may wish. Under the military government of the United States our laws excluding the Chinese were put in forcein fact. were enacted there under that government. and have been adopted by the present Government of Cuba. In other words. our laws about the Chinese are in force in the island today-
