NO DANGER OF WAR
ROOT ON THE AMERICAN-JAPANE
 CONTROVERSY.
He Delivers Address at Opening of American Society of International Law-The Drago Doctrine
 iS D1acuaNed.

Washington. April 1s.-That there never was danger of war between the United States and Japan over the re- cent controversy regarding the segre- gation of Japanese in the public schools in San Francisco was made clear by Secretary Root in an address on The real question under the Jap anese treaty and the San Francisco School Board resolution" at the first annual meeting of the American So- ciety of International Law, which con- vened here today. State rights, Secre- tary Root declared. were not Involved.
 Much of the afternoon was devoted to a discussion of the Drago doctrine which former Secretary of State John W. Foster declared was originated by Alexander Hamilton. William Barnes. Sr., of Massachusetts. introduced a resolution asking the society to go on record as considering it a degreAation of the functions and purposes of the navies of the world to pervert them to the duties of debt collectors ana the lowering of the dignity of admiraRs of the navies to force them to perform the duties of constables, bailiffs and sheriffs. The resolution which also carried an endorsement of the Drago doctrine was referred to the Executive Committee.
 The speakers at the afternoon ses- sion. at which former Secretary of State John w. Foster presided. in- cluded William l.. Penield, Solicitor General of the United States; Cram mond Kennedy. who served as a mem- Der of the Venezuelan Claims Commis- sion in 1903, and Professors Hershey and Latane.
 "Forcible intervention for the collec- ton of debts" was the subject of the paper read by MT. Penheld. who de- clareed that a Government should nev- CT invoke force in order to secure jus tice to It's citizens abroad which would lead to utter injustice and chaos at home.
 The Drago doctrine" he said, has now been made use of as a convenient substitute for the threadbare Monroe doctrine, which has ceased to serve the purposes of those who would pervert and use it as shield for wrong do- ing"
