A MOMENTOUS QUESTION.
"TIMES" SUGGESTS IMPERIAL COMMISSION OF INQUIRY.
(United Press Association—Copyright) (Received "December 29, 4.32 p.m.) LONDON, December 28. The "Times" says that the Imperial asent to the Immigration Restriction Act enables the Transvaal to enforce Asiatic registration by deporting passive resisters. '- The "Times" recommends the Imperial Secretariat to organise a cioinmission representing the Empire to investigate the Asiatic problem, and make plain mutual difficulties. It is possible that the evidence of some of our most exclusive colonies would-show it is impossible to entirely bang the door against the growing tide of the population of the East. The Commission might possibly also convince us that the 'unrestricted immigration of Asoatics will be fatal to our civilisation and race. Certain parts of the Empire most suited to Orientals, and least suited to our habits, might bo specially reeei*vccl for Orinetl immigration.
