Chinese *students. Chinese who desire to travel for pleasure are allowed to come into this country without limitation. The laborers of the Orientthe socalled coolie classare excluded from this country because American labor can not compete with the cheap labor of the Orient. That is the ground upon which the oriental laborer or coolie is excluded. The question of race has nothing to do with it. Japan has agreed with us that she will exclude her laborers from this country. and therefore she does not give them permits to come: But her merchants. her students. and her travelers come here freely and constantly.
