SIAMESE TROOPS EN' FRANCE
First Contingent Consists of Aviation,
Motor and Ambulance Corps.
Reuter's Agency has received from
a well informed Siamese source some
details of the first Siamese contingent,
which arrived in France a month ago.
The, contingent consists of units of
Siamese ambulance, motor and avia-
tion corps.and Is under the command
of.Major General Phya Bkijai Ja..nridh,
who was awarded the K.C.M.G. some
• inontlis ago when be was head of the
Siamese Military Mission to England,
The General, who has since been
awaiting in. France the arrival of the
Siamese contingent, was, some twenty
years ago in the Belgian army, and
was educated in France.
' 'The Siamese are peculiarly suited
to aviation work, on account of their
extraordinary: keen eyesight, their
smallness and their daring. The mem-
- bars of the aviation corps who have
arrived in prance have had good
training in Siam, which. will .be com-
pleted. in Prance. They wear khaki
uniforms 'much the same in cut as
that;' worn. by the British troops. Al-
though there has been coinpulsory
service in. force In Siam for many
years, the troops which are now ar-
riving all are volunteers.

were classed as prohibited aliens. If

Migration Within the Empire.
"This is an insult to a whole people
which stings the pride of. every In-
dian to the quick; it is a humiliation
when no self-respecting people can
be. expected to tolerate; all classes in
India unite in resenting it; the feud -
atm princes, the -great landowners,
the gallant native officers of our In-
dian army, feel the insult as keenly
as do .the educated politicians. In-
deed, few Englishmen, either in this
country or overseas, can be satisfied
with the situation. Common decency
forbids our saying to the Indians.
`You are welcome allies on the battle-
field, but when once the war is over
we cannot admit you to an equality
with ourselves.' If Indians were to
rejoin, `Then what reasons have we
to remain within an empire which
exposes us ' to this humiliation?' a
satisfactory reply would not be al-
together easy to find.
"As a matter of fact, India did ' not
at the autbreak' of the war, nor does
she now, make, this reply, though an
Englishwoman is attempting to put
some such words in her mouth; but
because of her chivalrous,/forbearance
we are the more bound to find a way
out 'of an intolerable situation. I to
not think this im^ossible. Unrestrict-
ed migration within the empire is out
of the question. The reason for which
the oversea Parliaments have de-
cided to prohibit Indian, immigration
are so strong, that no one who has
ever examined them can hope to see
the policy reversed.
Wish to Remain Different.
The white inhabitants of the Do-
minions are, at present, so few in
number that if they once threw open
their ports to the pcpuldus East they
would be 'submerged by a flood of
Asiatic immigration, in which their
national • characteristics would be
obliterated. A South African states-

remain European, but that is, just
what we cannot hope to do if we
permit Indian, immigration,'
"Surely the aphorism "of the South
African statesman contains the gerrn
of an alternative policy which India.
can accept without humiliation. We
are not superior or inferior one to
the other, but we are different. We
also wish to remain different; neither
Indians nor Englishmen desire to
lose their national characteristics. In-
discriminate migration within the em-
pire is fundamentally wrong in prin-

of it would be, a,. fusion of the races,

African. Races Are Primitive.
"The races that inhabit East Africa
are still surprisingly primitive; they
have not evolved for themselves the
most rudimentary arts of civilization;
they have not adapted to their'own
use the wheel, the plough; or the
loom. Before the German penetta-
tion of the country their only clothes
were skins. Even the use of iron
dates from a comparatively recent
period. I was told the name' of a
chief on Kilimanjaro who first intro-
duced the use of iron.'spears, and I
gathered that he lived but five or six
generations ago; his people still told
with' exultatiin how he had conquered

war, `for before that,' they said, 'we
had only spears and swords of wood.'
