PINKHAMs MANIFESTO.
In addition to President Plnkhams
statistics already mentioned, he made
number of statements at length about
japanese physicians.
one OF them, without the RESPONSE
bilities of citizenship. was permitted to
testify in the Kaipu case before the
u. S. District Court, and only in his
third test did he find proof of the
disease which four white physicians
had already ascertained from their
first tests. Then, in the Makanui case,
the same doctor was deputized with
two white experts to make an exam
ination, and the case so wrought up
the members of both houses as to
threaten their friendly relations with
the Board Of Health"
The president said he knew of no
japanese physician who had been re-
quired to pass his examination in the
English language or who had been re-
fused an examination In his own lam
guage.
II believe the evidence tends to dis
close n growing desire to exploit the
profession beyond the limits claimed
and a growing disrespect for law on
the part of the Japanese" the message
stated. Its author went on to tell of
his employment of two detectives to
secure evidence of unlawful practice.
Two convictions of japanese had been
obtained, and two others had quit their
illegal practice.
