Excerpt from Just Before the Dawn, the Life and Work of Ninomiya Sontoku Racial prejudice has played a great role in the history of the world. Under certain condi tions this has been of great value in leading men, with an utter contempt for their opponents, to attempt and actually achieve what would other wise have been impossible. Under other condi tions, however, it may lead, and actually has led, to the greatest injustice and cruelty In many ways it may be shown that this extreme prejudice is being rapidly changed in our day. The rapid development of commercial relations between the most remote parts of the world has led to an exchange of products, and the relations thus set up between buyers and sellers have compelled men of the most diverse races to try to under stand one another, so far, at least, as financial interests are concerned. The profit and loss account has led men to overcome strong racial and, other prejudices, and has made those of widely different character and religion unite in the effort to obtain wealth.
