INSTITUTE OF PACIFIC RELATIONS
At a meeting of the Wellington Group of the Institute of Pacific Relations bust week, Miss Maurais spoke on “Racial Relations in the Philippine Islands.” She stressed the necessity for understanding the racial elements and the past history of nations. This was specially necessary with regard to the Filipinos', a people who have been influenced by many waves of migration, she said. Among the races who had come to the islands were the Negritos, the Qudocaucaseaus. the MalayMongoloid, the Hindu, the Clemose, and the Maluniedaur. The origins of culture were very varied before the coining of the Spaniards and tho Americans. It wan difficult to say whether the Spanish influence was very deep, but that of the United States had been very strong, the standard of living. hygiene, and education being much improved.
