Excerpt from Trade Politics and Christianity in Africa and the East The following chapters were awarded the Maitland Prize at Cambridge in 1915, for an essay on the thesis, "Problems raised by the contact of the West with Africa and the East and the part that Christianity can play in their solution." Considerable reference has been made to the Government Blue Books bearing upon labour questions in South Africa, and to the Minutes of Evidence attached to the Report of the Committee of Inquiry into the Liquor Trade in Southern Nigeria (1909), together with the reports and pamphlets of the United Races Committee bearing on the liquor traffic in Africa. For the liquor question in India and Ceylon, the Blue Books, the Journal of the Anglo-Indian Temperance Association (Abkari) and the reports of the United Races Committee have been consulted. For the sections on government and education in India and China reference has been made to writers in the British quarterlies, but I am responsible for the argument and conclusions. The publications of the Society for the Suppression of the Opium Trade have been used for the chapter on Opium and Morphia in China. Certain papers in the Report of the proceedings of the First Universal Races Congress (1911) have been consulted for the section on inter-racial marriage, but for this section, as for those on political problems in India and China, and the chapter on Religion, I am mainly responsible.
