I think not. Senator. I was upon 1he point of observingand I am stating broad propositions rather than going into detailsthat all nations. without asking the consent or permission of others. exercise the right to control the subject matter of immigration. and I was about to add. which I now do. that Japan exercises that right. As was pointed out a moment ago. she exercises it against Chosen and against China and against the great Malay populations. the Siamese. the Javanese. and the Hindus. Nobody questions her right. Nobody criticizes her action. It is universally admitted that she is legislating for and on behalf of her own people.
