学习的时间是如此的糟糕，以至于它已经被政府标记为需要批准。同样重要的是，这条街上77%的华人是广东裔，但在1947年，全新加坡华人中只有22%是广东裔（第163页）。然而，也许还有另一个原因使作者不愿意在本研究中进行概括。他对可能有助于开阔视野的文学几乎没有什么借鉴。因此，他没有使用描述中国相关地区的生活条件和家庭生活的作品，关于中国社会组织的一般作品，以及关于世界其他地区非华人移民贫民窟居民的可比作品。然而，评论家意识到，这并不是一个完全公正的批评，因为它需要另一种类型的书，而不是作者选择给我们的这本书。我们拥有的这本书本质上是原始数据的价值；我们希望Kaye博士现在可以以更广泛的比较方式使用他的数据，从而为更广泛的受众阐明重要的材料。
time of study was festering so badly that it was already marked for clearance by the government. Equally important, 77% of the Chinese of the street were of Cantonese origin but only 22% of the Chinese of all Singapore, in 1947, were Cantonese in origin (p. 163). There is, however, perhaps another reason for the author's reluctance to generalize in this study. He has drawn very little upon a literature that might be helpful in widening his horizons. Thus he has failed to use work which describes living conditions and family life in relevant portions of China, general works on Chinese social organization, and comparable works on non-Chinese immigrant slum dwellers in other portions of the world. The reviewer realizes, however, that this is not an altogether fair criticism since it calls for another kind of book than the one the author has chosen to give us. The book we have is of value essentially as raw data; we hope that Dr. Kaye may use his data now in a broader comparative way, thereby elucidating important materials for a wider audience.
