THAT AGREEMENT as TO JAPAN
Sill Shuts Out Little Japa, but Not
Intentionally"
Children of ''AIien Birth" Only Means
the Kids Of the Subjects of the
MikadO - Labor ExcIu-
sion Provisions.

Washington, Feb. 10. = japanese
children are to be admitted to the
white schools Of san Francisco under
certain restrictions; skilled and IN
skilled laborers coming from Japan
barred from the main land Of the
United States, and Iaborers from the
United States. skilled and unskiued,
are to be excluded from Japan This
is the basis Of the agreement between
President Roosevelt, Secretary Root,
Mayor Schmitz and the San Francisco
schools board as an adjustment of anti
japanese agitation brought about by
the segregation Of japanese children in
the schools Of San Francisco. The
agreement means that the schools OF
San Francisco win be conducted in
the same manner as they were before
the board of education adopted the
resolution last October providing for
the segregation Of the japanese, except
that adult Japanese who are in prim-
airy grades must continue to attend
the Oriental schools, and that Japanese
children under IL years of age will be
admitted to classes with white chill
dren of their own ages.
No DISCRIMINATION Intended"
While the resolution of the school
board, as amended reads children OF
allen BIRTH 1t is freely admitted by
Mayor Schmitz and his associates that
the resolution will apply only to the
Japanese children, and that the change
in the wording was to make it plain
to the Toxic government that no dis
elimination was intended against Jap
anese children.
Rust Read Between the Lines.
Assistant City Attorney Williams, OF
San Francisco, who has acted as legal
advisor to Mayor Schmitz and the
board Of education since negotiations
have been pending in Washington.
said: ITO understand the exact mean,
ing Of the statement given out by May
CT Schmitz it viii be necessary for
the newspaper men to read between
the lines. The only concession we
have made is to admit Japanese chill
dren to the white schools, while in re,
turn the administration has brought
about the exclusion of japanese labor
ers from this country"
What Mayor schmitz Said.
Mayor Schmitz said: This is only
a temporary agreement President
Roosevelt has given Us direct and posi-
tive assurances that he will at once
Degin negotiations with Japan for the
purpose of bringing about a new treaty
that will exclude japanese laborers,
skilled and unshlled, from continental
United States"
