The Department of the Interior immediately did the proper thing. Through the newspapers it informed the public that the number of workmen already in Las Vegas far exceeded the requirements for the Boulder Dam project. . Who are the opponents of this sorely needed measure to relieve our dis._ ess? They consist of three different groups. First. there are those sincere persons of delicate sympathies who believe Filipino exclusion unethical. This same group has generally opposed all immigration restriction. Suchpersons opposed even the first Cliinese exclusion act. Congress has refused repeatedly to be guided by their policy. Second. there is the Filipino himself.
