SURPRISE IN WASHINGTON.
Senator Perkins Stands With His
People on School Question.

washington. Feb News of the pas
sage by the California assembly today
of the bill providing for the segregation

"as the most offensive bill of all and

president at that time. from Japan as
japan has to learn from US. and no nation
is fit to teach unless it is also willing TO
learn.
Opinion of Senator Perkins.
Senator Perkins of California tonight as
serted his belief that the right should be
given to school authorities of the state to
furnish separate schools for japanese.
The people of California in their at
tempt to secure regulation of japanese
attendance in their schools do not desire
to do ANYTHING that will disrupt general
treaty policies with Japan The question
rs to whether japanese should be admit
ted to the schools and universities of the
state should be left. in my opinion. to
the school boards and the regents of the
colleges. In the case of the higher schools
and universities 7 do not think there has
been or would be in the future. any OBJ
lection TO having Japanese students In
the lower schools. however. the objection
has been that there were often japanese
children much older than the American
children and tie former often kent back
the latter because they knew little En-
glish and had to be taught slowly The
people Of California are all right on the
question. The right to furnish separate
schools for JaDanese as well as for other
Asiatics should be given TO the individual
school authorities OF the state as a police
provision
Senator Flint said he was surprised to
learn of the passage of the bill He re-
fused to discuss the possibility of its pas
sage in the upper house of the legisla ture.
He said his views on the school question
were similar to those expressed by Sens-
tor Perkins.

such action against the white race. were
It necessary to maintain the integrity of
her race and her institutions. She is
at liberty to pursue such course Such
action constitutes no charge of inferior

a confession of inferiority in ability to

Japan deserves from Us only respect ana

Newark, \. J., Feb. Mrs. Mary J.

who was murdered in his home last
Monday night, is in condition Of COM
piete nervous collapse today after a
midnight visit to the mOrgue, where
she was suddenly confronted by the
body of her husband.
When the sheet which covered her
husbands body was suddenly removed,
she rushed forward crying, "Oh, Frank,
if you could only speak and tell them
who did this" She became hysterical,
franticaliy declaring her love for her
husband. After having been questioned
by the detectives for more than an hour
she was taken back to the police sta
tiOn in state of utter collapse. Her
answers were mostly incoherent-

knowing the purpose Of the trip until
she was shown the murdered mans
body. Later the detectives endeavored
to make use of similar strategy to OBJ
tain a statement from Nicholas Sicca,
who has been in custody since the MUIR
der.
Before Sicca reached the Wilhelm
house the body of the murdered man
had been conveyed there from the
morgue and placed in the position in the
basement where 1t was found after the
murder.
Sicca was cheerful and was showing
the detectives about the house. when
suddenly one of them from the base
ment called the others to come down
and join him in a lunch.
Collapse of Suspect.
The other detectives, with Sicca. ran
downstairs and at the foot OF them. in
the dark hallway, a light was suddenly
flashed up and there before him Sicca
saw the murdered body of Wilhelm.
For moment the prisoner gazed down
at the body of the dead. InvoluntariIy
his knees wobbled. his hands stiffened
and his eyes became CLASSY and white.
Sicca, what do you know about
that?" asked one of the detectives.
Sieca made no response. Losing con-
troll of his legs, he was sinking to the
f1oor when the officers caught him and
carried him from the house and into
the carriage. When he reached his cell
he was In a condition Of nervous col
lapse, and for that reason the arraign-
ment of him and Mrs Wilhelm was
postponed today. He was not At to
leave the cell.
The funeral of Frank Wilhelm was
held this afternoon from the Wilhelm
house. The prosecutor gave Mrs. Will
helm permission to attend it.
