Do you suppose. if this amendment were agreed to. that those countries that are now employing this slave labor in the production of their rubber would continue to employ that type of labor? On the contrary. they would readjust themselves to meet the products of free labor. I assume--this is not a statement of the factthat there are certain American concessions in Central America and in South America respecting the production of lumber. Lumber operations in those territories are carried on by a system of labor such as peonage. coolie labor. indentured labor with penal sanctions. and forced labor. Certainly that type of commodity would be denied admission into the United States. and it ought to be.
