The Calcutta Review An Illustrated Monthly (Third Series) January 1934

1934

The rapid and phenomenal economic development of Java and the Hawaiian islands under the direction of the Dutch and the Americans is a testimony to the enomous pressure of industrialised populations reacting favourably on tropical lands. [...] On the other hand the history of the Congo and of the more recent Putumayo atrocities in South America the decimation of the native population in German S. W. Africa and the cruelties of slavery and indenture in the first half of the 19th century are unmitakable evidences of the seamy side of the white industrialism in the tropics. [...] The sheep requires far less shepherding in the climate than the cabbage." I Thus the artificial standard of living and system of industry support each other though both are inconsistent with the resources and populatiosupporting capacity of the region and hence lack the impress of geographic fatality.. [...] Indeed the Pacific geographically speaking is the great Ocean of the Orient and the thurst of the Orientals out in the Pacific through the chains of islands from the mainland of Asia is a geographical and ethnic destiny now being baffled by political forces. [...] On account of the scarcity of labour and the superiority of the Chinese and the Japanese to the Mexicans and Filipinos there is now a general lack of enforcement of the Californian anti-alien land laws of 1913 1920 and 1923.
