JAP EXCLUSION BILL
DELAYED COMPROMISE

x tentative agreement has BEEN reach
ed between the House OF representa-
tives delegation from the Pacific coast
and the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs, by which a program has been
mapped out to postpone action on the
japanese exclusion bill until the next
session of Congress.
The Foreign Affairs Committee has
told the Pacific coast men that while
it is satisfied the bill should be passed,
IL prefers 10 give ample time for a test
OF the executive steps that have been
taken 10 solve the japanese immigra-
ton problem. The coast men have ar
gued that by next December the whole
country viii see that the President S
arrangement with Japan is ineffective.
The committee is IN such a frame OF
mind on the subject that IL will re-
port the bill for passage next session
provided there is evidence that the Ad-
ministration's arrangement has been Ia
effective.
