"It  has  seemed  to  many  of  our  citizens  who  have  become  familiar  with  the  ques-
tion raised  by  this  more  intimate  and  ever-increasing  contact  with  the  Orient  that  the
United  States  might  well  adopt  a  more  adequate  Oriental  policy.    Therefore,  be  it

"Resolved,  That  the  Commission  on  Relations  with  Japan,  appointed  by  the
Federal  Council  of  the  Churches  of  Christ  in  America,  urge  upon  Congress  and  upon
the  people  of  the  United  States  the  importance  of  adopting  an  Oriental  policy,  based
upon  a  just  and  equitable  regard  for  the  interests  of  all  the  nations  concerned,  and  to
this  end  suggests  that  the  entire  immigration  problem  be  taken  up  at  an  early  date,
providing  for  comprehensive  legislation  covering  all  phases  of  the  question  (such  as  the
limitation  of  immigration,  and  the  registration,  distribution,  employment,  education
and  naturalization  of  immigrants)  in  such  a  way  as  to  conserve  American  institutions,
to  protect  American  labor  from  dangerous  economic  competition,  and  to  promote  an
intelligent  and  enduring  friendliness  among  the  people  of  all  nations."
