Necessity for Importing Foreign Labor
Is a Bar to Investment of
Capital.
Mesopotamia Is a rich field for oil,
but the only wells In operation are a
few sunk before the war by the Arabs.
Not that the British need the Mcso-
potaminn wells at present; they have
more than they can use. But they are
not even prospecting for It, nor are
they allowing two r<rreeentatives of
a famous oil company o< our own to
prospect, though the American oil
comes in by Ablaidan and Is sold
at sometnmg less than the Pers'an oil.
One reason atncug many why big
capitalists are not received here with
open arms when they come forward
with some big scheme for the country
; Is that they generally begin by say­
ing: “We must import labor.”
Now the labor difficulty is serious
here. Arabs are not very keen on get­
ting much work out of themselves.
The Kurd coolies seem to be the only
ones that take to work and keep at it.
One sees them carrying the most un­
believable burdens. Recently I saw
a Kurd carrying a piano on his back,
followed by an assistant who was
steadying It. but not helping other­
wise.
But the Arnbs are willing to let the
Kurds do it. During the war labor
was so scarce that to keep going with
