quake.
Only Preventive Of War.
IT was seriously stated last night
that that is the only preventive of war
between the United States and Japan.
The president has sent for the pres
ident of the San Francisco board Of
education and the superintendent OF
schools, plainly and u~nequivocally to
inform them that their cdict Of non.
admisSiC~ for Japanese children must
be withdrawn.
Extremely Critical Situation.
President Roosevelt convinced the
entire California delegation in con,
gress that the existing situation is eX-
tremely critical and that they must
make some sacrifice of state pride for
the general good. He did not differen-
tiate as between the Japanese govern
ment and the Japanese people, but
made the broad. sweeping, ~comprehcn-
sive declaration that Japan desires
wal and is seeking a preteXt for its
prosecution.
Every member of the California del
egation was impressed by the presi-
dents utterances and promised To reu-
der all possible assistance.
Willy Jap Dodges.
The president and Secretary Root
are hopeful that if the action Of he
San Francisco school officers is re-
scinded. friendly relations may be
completely restored through diplomat
ic channels and a treaty arranged
whereby Japanese Goodies may bE eX-
cluded from entering the United
States. That this al be accomplish
ID is still problematic.
In all the negotiations up 10 this
time, Japan has adroitly asked Tor I'M
possible concessions as compensation
for the one favor of coolie exclusion.
