To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of course the Viceroy was forced to say it would not, since Britain and Japan were in treaty alliance. Of course these investments were made through London banks, and the ex- tent of the transactions will never be known. We do know, how- ever, that there was a mysterious absorption ,.Q£„Japanese_securi- ties which never could be accounted for by either the London financiers or our own. What I feel is that the danger of Asiatic ethnic solidarity is immensely accentuated by the attitudSwceriEaiB~...trriJre' British themselves. It goes without saying that the younger son of a British nobleman, who does not succeed to his father's estate and does not go into trade, but who finds the only outlet for his activi- 'ties in the Army or Navy, the Church, or in the Indian civil service, becomes far more of a snob , and therefore far more of a danger, when dealing with natives in Asia than he would be per- mitted to be at home in England. And the harm that one such person can do, i t may take an a rmv to undo.
