CHINESE V. BLACKS.
RAND MINING COMMISSIONERS' REPORT.
THEORY AND PRACTICE,
Received March 12, 8.32 a.m
PRETORIA. March 11. The Rand Mining Commissioners emphasised the fact that there was no essential difference between the importation of Chinese and Portuguese natives. One was just as desirable as the other.
The Commissioners declare that it is possible to make the Transyaal as attractive to working men as are Australia and California.
Mr Smuts, Colonial Secretary, while professing to be convinced of the desirability of substituting white for coloured labour, declares it to be one thing to introduce a theory gradually, and quite another to upset the whole economic condition of society.
