millions of inhabitants, who must need them,
and exchange for those manufactures the raw
produce of this fertile country. What is of
still greater significance, a strong conviction is
growing up among these more advanced states,
keenly struggling for existence as they are,
that no people have the right to keep ex-
clusively to themselves portions of the earth's
surface, the proper exploitation of which would
conduce to the general welfare of mankind.
These nations will demand with ever-increasing
insistence that the rulers of Manchuria should
not allow these vast natural riches to be unused
and run to waste. Competition for access to
parts of the world, so prolific of all that goes
to increase material prosperity and to provide
for the natural wants of a growing and wide-
spreading population, becomes more stringent
every year, and Manchuria can no longer resist
the pressure on it.
It is our business to see that Manchuria
remains as open to our trade as it now is ; that
we continue in future to enjoy all the rights we
at present possess. Our first great right is that
we shall not be called upon to pay higher duties
than are required from any foreign nation.
