ABSTRACT

The United States pursues only a colonial policy, immigration and not emigration being the chief problem the Americans have to deal with. American colonial policy has hitherto been decidedly imperialistic. Many of the Indian tribes in Mexico, and even the mestees, have shown signs of distant technical ability, but coupled too often with lack of strength and endurance. Broadly speaking, the whole racial problem is only a question of amalgamation between Indians and suitable white immigrants. The narrow-minded provincial policy, principally on the part of the farmers of the Middle West only too well reflected in Washington, seems to make it quite impossible for North America to give up anything at all of their huge war claims in Europe. Instead of this there will probably be further attempts to collect them by agreements resembling that made in the beginning of 1923 with Great Britain.
