NOT MENACE 10 AMERICA
East Indian Journalist Defends Rel
Men Who Are Now Invading
Sound Country.

Persistent reports and complaints
indicate that Vancouver and British
Columbia points are being overrur
with East Indians They cannot be
shut out legally, as they are British
subjects, yet their presence is declared
70 be a menace to white laboring in
terests. In their own land they are
accustomed to working for 10 cents
per day.
1t is also reported that they are
spreading down into Washington ir
the Sound counties bordering on the
line and may become as much OF ar
issue as the Chinese or Japs in a few
years.
This is the view taken by Ameri-
cans and British Columbia labor in
terests are protesting loudly against
the peculiar foreigners pouring III
from the land that England has spent
millions of dollars and lost thousands
of men to subjugate.
The East Indians side Of the move
ment is presented by Saint N. Sing
talented East Indion journalist. IL
writing on the subject he argues thai
less than $500 natives have migrated
eastward and form no menace t.
American labor. Sing says:
"Tne average workingman in Bri'
tisn Columbia has been duped by
wrong statements and led to Oppose
people who not only belong to thu
same race, but are of the same origin
| II the laborites in America claim t.
| be consistent, their attitude toward:
the India immigrants ought to be char
acterized with sympathy and not NAL
ice. In India over 6O,000,0OO people
| live in a never-ending famine. Thes'
men from the Punjab who are nov
here in British Columbia have worked
at starvation wages and their bite
experience in life has engendered thu
most impiacable hatred for cheapenins
rates of labor. Almost every day pa
pers in British Columbia print new
that these so-called Hindus refuse t
work at low rates and demand tn
wages of white men. Under these cir
cumstances the labor people injur
their own cause by circulating unjus
and malicious statements as to tn
wOrthlessness of these immigrants.
without in any manner discount
ing the opposition of a section of Bri
fish Columbians, in the estimation o
the writer of these lines there is NJ
danger of the immigrants proving
themselves a failure. 1t is merely ;
question of time when, given fair ant
square play, they will establish a nam'
for themselves in British Columbia a.
| they have done in other countries
! The railroads, the fruit ranches
farms, mills, etc., offer work to tn
immigrants which they will soon Prov
to the world they can do sufficiently.
