OUR TROUBLES

s,,i,in, from the expansion policN. me

claims for redress fOr the ll-lredliHthI

Another question OF more Importance
is the determination Of the status OF
some ~ our newly acquired citizens OF
subjects. Already a Chinaman by BIRTH
but aPhilippine by residence has applied
for recognition as an American citizen.
Another Chinaman in Hawaii wants
passport showing that he is a citizen OF
the United States. The annexation law
prohibits the coming into the limits of
the United States Of Chinese persons
from Hawaii, but the constitutionality Of
any act that proposes 10 discriminate
among American citizens has been raised
and this Chinaman Is citizen by adop-
tion. These are few Of the questions
that have already arisen and others are
expected 10 follow in the near future.
