Description

Published on the front page of the Free Lance, 6 April 1927 under the title "John Chinaman at home - and abroad".The behaviour of the Chinese in uprisings in China against foreigners is compared to the role of the Chinese as seemingly innocent market gardeners in New Zealand. The implication is that the Chinese could turn on European New Zealanders.
