Abstract

I gladly join the members and friends of the Immigrants’ Protective League in celebrating the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Laws by the Congress of the United States. All Chinese people, here and elsewhere, will gladly join with you in this celebration and in expressing to members of the present Congress our warm and deep appreciation for this action. The repeal of the Exclusion Laws means the removal of the last, but not the least, impediment to the friendship between the peoples of our two countries.

Chapter Note: The Social Service Review XVIII, no. 2 (June 1944), 141–144.

Address at the Annual Meeting of the Immigrants, Protective League, Chicago, April 12, 1944.
