PRESS REPORTS OF POSSIBLE
WAR WITH JAPAN AS SENT

BASIS OF COMPROMISE AGREED TO
RELATIONS OF THE TWO coUN.
TRIES NEVER MORE COR.
-. = ...... -. r. -. -. ..,.s.. -., .-.., =
=" DIAL THAN TODAY. 49,

Washington, Feb. 4.-War with ia.
pan is the remotest of possibilities
The difference between the two coun;
tries. owing to the refusal of San
Francisco to permit Japanese pupils
to enter the public schools of that
CITY, never has reached the stage
where It created fear of an armed
clash between the two countries.
Reports of possible war that have
been sent out from Washington are
not only misleading but are wholly
unjustified by any facts in possession
Of either government. The relations
between the United States and the
empire Of Japan never were more cor.
dial than they are today. The Japa-
nese diplomatic representatives are
we'll acquainted with the situation and
President Roosevelt has succeeded in
securing the consent of Japan to a
hasis of compromise which will settle
the whole difficulty within year or
two, provided the people of San Fran
cisco do their part. - .... - +.
: The treaty which is pending and
which ia the direct result of the deli
cate Intervention of the president was
not. framed by either country because
there was the slightest danger of war.
It was brought about because the Jap
anese realized that it was not to their
interest to have their people come to
. The Mainland Of America,
because they would not be treated
fairly here. AT the same time they
were entirely unwilling to submit to
anything in the nature of international
insult and they generously have
agreed to sign treaty prohibiting
their people landing in the United
STAGES and prohibiting our working
men landing in the Japanese islands.
ALI they have asked has been that as
a purely temporary matter and in order
to save their national pride Japanese
children Of school age in San Fran
cisco who until Dot. Ii or thereabouts
were received in the public school on
an: equality with American: children
shall continue to be so received. .--,
AS the Japanese are to be barred
out by treaty the children of that race
Of school age naturally will disappear
within few years and thus the Pa
cifio coast will be free both of the
threat of Japanese immigration and Of
present association of white with Jap
anese children of the coolie class. On
the other hand the people Of the Pa
cifio slope want Japanese excluded
and when that is done they will be
entirely satisfied. It rests with the
school authorities Of San Francisco to
say whether the fair compromise ar
ranged by President Roosevelt shall
be nut in force or not
