Attorney General Knox Rules on Chinese Admit As Merchants
In an opinion at Treasury request, Attorney General Knox holds that Chinese may engage in manufacturing for sale and be considered merchants under treaty and law. He clarifies that manufacturers or bona fide merchants are not automatically entitled to admission as merchants, and notes Chinese with valid certificates of residence remain entitled to protection. The opinion limits its scope to the Hawaii Territory case and does not address broader rights to reform to the United States.
