I certainly do not think the British Government by this procedure or process is attempting to work out anything with the Chinese. The fact of the matter is there are many Chinese in the service of the British merchant marine. and there are Chinese in service on the merchant vessels of others of our allies. Obviously. the Chinese cannot be deported to their native land. China. because the situation of the waters around China is such that they cannot be sent there. Insofar as these. Chinese seamen have joined up for service on British vessels. they joined up for a round trip. and I cannot see any reason why that class certainly should not be deportable under this bill. As to the others. I recognize that there is something of a different category. but it seems to me that in this broad overall proposition it would not be feasible to attempt to separate one nationality from another or to separate into certain groups those of one. nationality.
