CHINESE IN SAMOA.
A QUESTION FOR NEW ZEALAND. By Telegraph?— Press Assn.—Copyrleht. London, July 5. In the House of Commons, replying to Mr. Wedgewood Bean and Mr. Kiley, who complained of the reinrtcniure of Chinese lnboren in Samoa before the issue of the mandate, Colonel L. 0. Amery (Under-Secretary for the Colonies), emphasised that the matter was entirely within the control of the New Zealand Government. The Imperial Government was never at any time responsible 'for the administration of Samoa. He did not doubt any representations by the Samoan chiers against the Chinese would leeeive the fullest consideration of the New Zealand Government. Colonel Amery declined to submit the question of forbidding Chinese indentured labor in mandated areas to the Council of the of Nations.
