SAN FRANCISCO'S HOPE.
immigration Eppert Thinks Aliens
from East VIII DriUe Out ASiatics.

William r. Wheeler. OF San Francisco, one Of the
special commissioners appointed by President
Roosevelt to study abroad the entire problem of
immigration. and who returned several days ago
from Europe. declared yesterday before leaving
here for San Francisco. that the opening OF the
Panama Canal would solve the Asatc problem in
San Francisco and the Pacific Coast. Mr.
Wheeler has made an exhaustive analysis OF the
immigration problem in Europe and will soon take
up the work OF investigating the Japanese imni-
grafton in San Francisco.
When asked concerning the beneficial effect the
opening of tho Panama Canal would have on the
solution Of the Japanese problem Mr. Wheeler said:
The completion Of the Panama Canal and the
consequent influx OF European immigration
through direct steamship routes which will In
evitably be established will solve the Aslatic
problem in California and on the Pacific coast
when the canal is completed there will q,
course. be established a number OF tbror,-h
steamship lines between the great European euIi-
grafton points and the principal Pacific coast
ports. This easy and comparatively ineSpensive
means OF transportation without change will nrov.
attractive TO largo numbers OF aliens who VIII
come to the Pacific coast to seek new homes ana
employment.
Now, this must not be viewed with alarm by the
forces OF labor the Pacific Coast. These newly
arrived aliens will be of the desirable class and
their presence will aid in the future upbuilding OF
California and the Pacific states rather than re-
tard It, The immigration laws of the United
States provide for that. They admit only the
physically, morally ana financially lit. These
aliens are white men. They home seekers up-
builders of their welfare and the welfare OF
the country. With the immense natural resources
of California TO be developed, especially agricult
urally the influx Of large number of desirable
aliens that will be brought about by the opening
OF the canal will be boon 10 the Pacific Slope
The great influx of Europeans would drive out the
Asiatics
AS TO the japanese problem on the Pacific Coast
Mrs Wheeler said:
NV understanding OF the Japanese question is
that the Japanese government itself is opposed to
the emigration of its subjects TO America. Japan
spheres of interest in the Orient that will need
thousands of people to develop. There are Corea
and Manchurfa and Formosa. The Japanese gov
ernrnent realizes, 1 think that these domains
urgently demand populating. and believe that the
ultimate emigration from Japan will be largely 70
the Asiatic mainland rather than 10 America. AS
I understand IL, Japan is restricting its issuance
OF passports which must be obtained by Japanese
who enter the United States. and rather imagine
the question will in measure be self-adjusting.
