The Manawatu Herald. SATURDAY. DECEMBER 1, 1906
Mr J. J. Brittain, the American consul at Kebl, calls attention to a movement by German students to exclude foreigners from the German universities. Manufacturers, afraid of the competition that might follow from the training of outsiders in German methods, have sought to have laws enacted that would either exclude foreigners or make it so hard for them to enter as practically to exclude them from the universities.
