HOW THE JAPANESE ROW
LOOKS TO THE EUROPEANS

, This government is pledged to extend
! to her citizens in the United States
j each and every privilege granted tC
| the citizens of the most favored Europ-
can nation. This pledge was stated in
! clear terms by Secretary Root in his
| recent cablegram to Ambassador
Wright. Congress will be called upon
| to pass a law permitting the naturali-
zation of Japanese, but the Federal
government will be powerless to >allay
the feeling against Americans in Japan
if the people of the Pacific Coast insist
upon treating the Japanese as an in
ferior race.
Europes interest in the matter lies
in the belief that should trouble come
between this country and Japan the
Japanese could not expect assistance
from Great Britain in spite of all exist
ing treaties, and thus unaided would
turn to Russia and seek an alliance
which Russia would be only too ready
to grant. 1t is the effect in the Far
East of such an alignment which
Europe fears. So long as Japan and
the United States continue their friend
ly rela tions, Europe hoped that the
three powers, England, Japan and the
United States, could be depended upon
working in harmony to keep open the
door in the Far East. 1t is believed,
if not by Japan, certainly by Germany,
France and Italy, that in the event of
war between this country and Japan.
England would find some way of ex-
cusing herself from any obligations to
side with Japan. For this reason il is
believed in Washington, and the de-
nf m q a N n
don bear out the belief, that the Lon
don government can be depended upon
to urge upon Toxic a easonable and
patient attitude in it's discussion with
Washington of the anti-Japanese dis
elimination on the Pacific Coast. Mean
time the President will take every Op-
portunity of showing to the world that
the great mass of the American people
desire that the japanese shall be treat
ed as are the people of the most favor
ed nation who come to this country.
1t is evident. however, that in their
campaign against the japanese the Pa
cific Coast politicians will have the
support of the politicians of the South,
who regard the problem as a race
question and recall that the senator's
and congressman from the Far West
Congress whenever that spectre has
been raised. Then, too. the question
of States rights enters in and South
erners contend that should Japan be
supported in her refusal to permit her
citizens TO attend separate schools in
thfs country the Federal government
would be guaranteeing 10 a foreign na-
ton better treatment than is extended
in, fFE.
the negroes in the South. Il is III
this apparent determination on the part
of the CaIifornians to class the Japa-
nese with the Chinese and negroes that
the japanese press of San Francisco
and the native press of Japan find Its
chief cause of complaint The whole
japanese people resent this attitude
keenly.
