According to Loomis, the Japanese
segregation question has not excited
much interest In the East. 1t was
merely an incident of the busy life OF
Washington and other cities. The peo-
pie there are not sufficiently posted
upon the subject to give 1t deep con-
sideration. He said that labor condi-
tions In the West made the Japanese
question of vital Importance here. He
thought that the strong hold Of the
unions in California had stimulated the
exclusionists to protect themselves
against the possible inroads of Asiatios.
He believed that an exclusion law could
be passed without much difficulty.

vestigated charges against William O.
Beall, secretary of the commissioner
having in charge the affairs of the fvo

guilty Of improprieties In having ac-

Mansfield, McMurray & Cornish, attor-

nations, which practice before the COM
mission in resisting claims for the en-

with having helped to prepare briefs

Beveridge debate upon great political
issues appears
SThe Nation Versus States Rights is
the topic OF this first debate, Mr. Bryan
speaking distinctly for the old idea, or
quality Of government, while Senator
Beveridge writes himself down as a
defender of what he terms the peo-
pies instructive effort toward national
unity.
Both debaters indulge in concrete
Illustrations to support their argu-
ments. Mr.. Bryan goes at some length
into the constitutional history of the
United States, tracing the present diff
ferences of opinion to the wide differ
ences that existed between the Hamil-
tonian and Jeffersonian schools at the
time the constitution was in the max
Ing. Senator Beveridge contents him
self with illustrations showing how
the development of the country and the
changed conditions have given full
warrant for the Supreme Courts con-
struction, which recognizes the implied
powers OF the Federal Government.
OF the Japanese discussion, Mr..
Bryan says:
An argument has recently been
made In favor Of extending the sphere
OF the general Government, viz: that
1t IL necessary so as to protect the
treaty rights of foreigners. Some have
gone so far as to assume that Congress
has power to carry out the terms of q
treaty without regard to constitutional
provisions.
'sThfs Is q very paipabIe error, for
the Presfdept and Senators who Join
in the making of q treaty are bound by
oath to support the constitution and
they can make mo- binding treaty which
violates the constitution. constftu-
taen which can be amended only by the
concurrence of the people of three
fourths OF the States concerned cannot
be suspended by the mere concurrence
of the President and the Senate.
THE exclusion of Japanese students
from certain OF the schools of San
Francisco aroused the discussion In re-
gard to the treaty rights Of the men,
bcrs of that race living in San Fran
cisco Upon no subject would the peo-
pie Of a State insist more strenuously
in controlling their own affairs than
in matters Of education.
''The schooIroem 10 in close and con-
parents, having a vital interest In the
instruction of their children and an In
innate acquaintance with local condi-
tions, would not and should not CON-
sent to national control or supervision.
No construction of the constitution
could bring State schools within the
scope of Federal legislation and no
amendment contemplating such a
change would commend itself to any
section of the country"

FAvoRs BLOCK SYSTEM

WASHINGTON, Feb. as.-The Inter

TO the Senate today q report concern
ing the investigation Of the working
of the block system to prevent railroad
accidents. The commission recon-
mended the passage of a bill which
II had submitted a year ago, compel
ling railroads to adopt the system, but
suggested that the time for compli-
ance be extended three or four years.
The report estimates that IL would take
from one TO three years for ali roads
to equip with the block system.
Whether a law be passed at the
present session or not the commission
asked that II be authorized TO make
an official investigation OF all train
aocidents.

ing Via Mexico


Ing Via Mexico
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2s-The Bureau
of immigration does not attach any
Importance to the dispatch from Hawaii
declaring that Japanese there intend to
evade the new exclusion amendment by
going through Mexico into this coun-
try. Tho ofiicials are ready to shut
the doors to all Japanese entering by
way of Mexico as soon as the President
issues his order putting exclusion into
effect.
1t is claimed by other Hawaiian
Japanese. according to information re-
ceived here. that the exclusion amend
ment is violation of the treaty with
Japan, which guarantees to Japanese
In the United States the same rights
Of travel and residence as are enjoyed
by citizens OF the most favored nation.
They admit that Japanese coming from
Mexico might be excluded, but they in
sist that travel from Hawaii to Cali
fornia is within the United States as
much as a trip from New York to
Washington.
This point is dismissed by the State
Department officials with the statement
that the last paragraph Of section OF
the treaty recognizes the right of the
United States to enact immigration
laws and that such laws shall be para
mount to any privileges granted by the
treaty. The assent Of Japan having
been attained in addition, the point
raised by the Hawaiian Japanese will
not even be considered.

OPPOSED TO TREATY


Japanese of Coast to Wire Protest to

PORTLAND, Feb. 23.-''Though we
should drink our own blood, we should
fight against wrong and should sacrifice
ourselves for Justice"
So read the call in the local Japanese
paper for mass meeting Of the sub
jects of the Mikado in the Buddhist
Church tonight. All the Japanese In
town were present to enter protest
against the signing of the treaty be-
tween the United States and Japan.
1t was decided to make strong stand
against the proposed treaty by uniting
all the Japanese associations of the
coast from Seattle to Los Angeles In
one body and telegraphing their protest
to Japanese ambassador Aoki in Wash
ington and to the Japanese Government
The issue is not taken on the subject
of coo1ie labor, but on the diplomatic
defeat of the Japanese Government II
the present proposed treaty receives
signature.

in the United States to awake and to
act" said one of the speakers.

League to Keep Up It's
Exclusion Fight

tanning to the Japanese is whether the
Toxic government will be able to with
stand the pressure Of it's own people
for direct passports to the United
States. The President hopes to have
an exclusion treaty ready to submit to
Congress next December, but there Is
no assurance that such q treaty can
be agreed on. Information from Japan
reveals the strong disposition of the
Japanese to protest against being ex-
cluded from the coast of America.
There Is curiosity here as to the
methods that Japan will employ to ap-
pease her own people, and the price
that she will demand for the exclusion
of her own people from this country.
