Representative Fassett is concerned about the presence of Japanese workers onboard the battleships of the Great White Fleet, suggesting that they are probably “expert naval people” who are a danger to the officers on the ships. He suggests that there might be damaging “accidents.” Fassett believes that the officers can do without helpers on the ship.
