Excerpt from Two Addresses
He advocates the limitation of all immigration to five per cent. annually of those already naturalized, with their American-born children. This rate would allow to enter all who might come from North Europe, would cut down immigration somewhat from South and East Europe, and allow only a slight immigration from Asia. This would avoid the objection of differential treatment of the nations and so be in equal harmony with the dignity of all.
The principle on which he bases this rate is that we should admit no more aliens from any people than we can assimilate. Assimilation, however, takes place largely by means of those already naturalized, who know the languages, customs and ideals of both lands.
Professor Gulick also urges a Bureau of Registration; all aliens to be and to remain registered until they become citizens. The annual registration fee should be, say $10.
Also a Bureau of Education - to set standards prepare text-books, and hold examinations free of charge. The registration fee should be reduced with every examination passed.
Also a Bureau of Naturalization. Certificates of graduation from the Bureau of Education and of good behavior from the Bureau of Registration should be essential to Naturalization.
All new citizens should take the oath of allegiance to the flag on the Fourth of July; on which day there should be processions with banners and badges, welcome orations and responses.
Eligibility to American citizenship should be based on personal qualification. The mere fact oi race should be neither a qualification nor a disqualification.
Such a policy, Dr. Gulick contends, would completely solve, not only the perplexing Japanese problem, but also the dreaded Yellow Peril. It would put America right with all Asia; maintain and deepen our international friendship; and help to promote the uplift of China and secure our share of the enormous commerce which is to develop between China and the West in the near future.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the emergence of a new era marked by unprecedented global interconnectedness, wherein previously isolated races and civilizations now face one another. The author, an experienced missionary and educator in Japan, highlights the drastic transformation Japan underwent upon its forced opening to the West in the mid-19th century and its subsequent rise as a formidable power following its victory over Russia in 1905. This book explores the concept of "The White Peril" - the fear and hostility from Western powers as non-white nations began to assert themselves on the global stage. The author emphasizes the importance of moving beyond racial bias and exclusionary policies, advocating for a path of mutual respect and collaboration between East and West. By shedding light on the historical and cultural contexts that have shaped global dynamics, this book challenges readers to rethink prevailing assumptions about race and international relations, emphasizing the necessity of fostering friendship and understanding across cultural divides to ensure a peaceful and prosperous future.
