Mr. President. the Japanese mainland is densely populated. and Japan believes that a policy of overflow or expansion nmust be provided for if her people are to continue existence. much more if they are to prosper. The United States has not wanted Japanese immigration and Great Britain has not encouraged the coining of Japanese into her colonies. but Great Britain has recognized the necessity for Japanese expansion. and she apparently has been content that Japan should overflow into Asiatic territory. It is not my purpose to enter into a discussion of racial controversies. Neither treaties nor statutes can eliminate from the habits and principles and lives of mien those illherent differences that grow out of what we politely call race prejudices.
