British subjects are making a noble sacrifice to bring the blessings of civilization to the backward peoples of Africa
and Asia. We bring modern medicine, industrial
technology, and a better system of government to people
who would otherwise be living miserable lives. Surely Great
Britain deserves some compensation for its efforts in the
form of access to local resources.

resources for Great Britain.

helping their neighbors.

differently from the British.
