KEENAN, AsksWhy There
Is Talk of a Conflict

OAKLAND, Dec. George KEENAN,,
the distinguished author and war cor
respondent. who is studying the Japan
csc question in California, has decided
views on the subject as far as IT af-
fects the possibility of a clash at arms
between the island empire and the
United States.
KEENAN, said: Il am here as stu
dent of the situation and / am not
ready to express myself in this regard
But if the Pacific Coast, and Califor-
MIA especially, desire to escape being
overrun by Japanese the only proper
course to pursue would be to request
the Government at Washington to open
negotiations with Japan looking to-
ward restrictions being placed by
Japan herself upon the class and guam
tity of emigrants leaving that country
for these shores. That would be the
wiser course, instead of putting up the
bars against them on this side.
Regarding the eventual probability
of war arising between the two coun-
tries for the supremacy of the Pacific,
why should we fight for 1t? Because
both America and England use the
Atlantic Ocean must they fight for SUI
premacy? Is not the Pacific broad
enough for both? The supremacy OF
the Pacific on commercial lines will be
won by the best brains and the best
organization"

Preparing Japanese Case for Court

Violation of Treaty Rights

United States District Attorney Rob

Burke, Assistant City Attorney William
Baggett and John Williams. and Presi-
dent Altman of the Board of Educa-
ton met yesterday afternoon to agree
on a formal Statement of facts of
the Japanese school exclusion question
for presentation in court.
This document, which will be drafted
by Friday, will be submitted to court
and made the basis of what. District
Attorney Devlin technically. desiEnates
"a controversy without action
Freed from legal vernacular the pro-
ceedings to be instituted will amount
to a Joint request made by Devlin and
the attorneys Of the city for decision
on facts at issue which both sides will
agree to.
DevIin, acting for Secretary of State
Root through United States Attorney
General Moody, is entering the con-
troversy assuming that the treaty
rights of the Japanese are being vio-
lated by the resolution of the Board
of Education, which segregates them
in school. He comedies the right of
the Board of Education or any other
administrative body to make whatever
enactments governing municipal con-
ditions that may be deemed desirable,
but holds that this fact does, not OBJ
scure the contention of the Japanese
that they are being Disseminated
against He takes the position that
they are guaranteed under the Amer
lean Japanese treaty the same privi-
| leges as other aliens, and that mas

! French. English or other foreigners

schools are provided, 1T is specifically

ignation of the section shall not attend

This section of the Political Code was
made the basis of resolutions passed by
the Board of Education on October II

of the Oriental public school on the
south side of Clay street, between
Powell and Mason.

Peter S. Grosscup Of the United States
District Court of Chicago. who is
spending a few days in Baltimore as
the guest of John NJ Blankenship, SUI
perintendent of the Merchants and
Miners Transportation Company. today
gave his opinion of President Roose-
velt's message to Congress.
It's like a crazy quilt" said Judge
Grosscup. TT covers every possible
subject and many of them are hardly
important enough for a Presidents
message. 1t seems. to me that the
question Of providing shooting galleries
for school children might safely have
been left to the School Directors"
Referring to the Japanese question,
Judge Grosscup said he did not UNDER
stand what the President meant The
exclusion act applied only to the Chi
nese, he said and any Japanese could
become citizen II he complied with
the naturalization laws.
TT is the old trouble with Roosevelt
He recommends a thing in a general
way, but does not make clear the de-
tails. He does not go into questions
far enough. OF course. the Govern
ment is being more centralized. This
is necessary, but 1t does not do away

Which Race Shall Rule?

BOSTON, Dec. 5.-Andrew Furuseth,

Which race will eventually dominate

whittier" This will some day have to
be decided by a war of Americans
against the aggressive Japanese
II do not believe that immigration
laws that would allow wholesale entry
of Japanese into the United States
would prevent war, but the fewer Japs
we have in this country in the event of
war the better for the United States.

the foreigners and the japanese in the
event of riot. No apprehension of such
a state of affairs is felt here, and the
Presidents explanation is deemed to
have closed that side of the incident.
Similar expressions of satisfaction
have come from Japanese through the
embassy here.
Viscount Aoki, the Japanese Enbas-
sador, paid a hurried visit to the White
House today, conveying to the Presi-
dent a message from his Government.
President Roosevelt left the luncheon

Japanese situation as follows:
Primarily it might be said the en-
tire school question is under the abso-
lutte control of the State by virtue of
police power, unless interfered with
by the treaty-makfng power. Unques-
tionably a treaty can be made covering
and including the question, but II is
not for me to say whether the treaty
does or does not cover or include It,

Wonan's Trials.

The bitter trail In woman's life is to
be childless Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The alb
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection is a common disap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of such childless couple when they rest
on the children OF others. To them the
largest family does not seem too numerous.
In many cases of barrenness or child
leSsneSs the obstacle to child bearing is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to many

household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
