MR. JUSTICE TRAYNOR: Before you go into that, it might help to explain the statute, what it means. What is a negro?

MR. STANLEY: We have not the benefit of any judicial interpretation. The statute states that a [white] cannot marry a negro, which can be construed to mean a full-blooded negro, since the statute also says mulatto, Mongolian or Malay.

MR. JUSTICE TRAYNOR: What is a mulatto? One-sixteenth blood?… If there is 1/8 blood, can they marry? If you can marry with 1/8, why not with 1/16, 1/32, 1/64?
