RECONSIDERATION URGED

Asks Assembly to Rescind Its Action
in sesresatina Japanese School
Children and Quotes the Presidents
Telegram on the subject-Whole
Matter Put Over Several Days by
Vote Of Assembly.
Sacramento, Cal, Feb. 6.-Governor
Eillett sent to the assembly a special
message appealing to that body to
rescind it's action by which the Japa-
nese school segregation bill was
passed. The governor calls attention
to the contention of Japan, which is
not refuted by the United States gov
ernment, that the bill as passed vio-
lates the treaty rights of the empire
He does not enter into discussion
of the merits of the position, stating
that it Is a dehatable question, but
reiterates that Japan would consider
it an unfriendly act to exclude from
the public schools the children of its
subjects. After quoting the message
received from President Roosevelt
within a few hours after the passage
OF the bill Governor Gillett's message
continued:
"A telegram so forcible as this COM
ing from the president of the United
States is entitled to full consideration
and demands that no hasty or i'll con-
sidered action be taken by this state
which may involve the whole country.
"It seems to me it is time to lay
sentiment and personal opinion and
other considerations aside and take a
broad and unprejudiced view of the
important question involved in the
proposed legislation and in calm and
dispassionate manner pass upon them,
keeping in mind not only the interests
| of our state but C the nation as well
and the duty we owe to it in observ
ing the treaties entered into by 1t
with friendly power"
Calls Attention to Former Protest.
The message calls attention to the
protest of Japan against the resolu
| tion of the San Francisco school board
of two years ago directing that Orien
tails be compelled to attend their own
schools and the action of the federal
government In commencing suit to
have the order rendered nugatory
This suit was dismissed when the
school board withdrew the offensive
resolution.
The governor declares that there 4:
no present danger to the California
schools by reason of the attendance
OF Japanese pupils, SO far as is known
without expressing any opinion
thereupon the governor quotes thu
treaty guaranteeing to Japan the
rights and privileges of the most ia
lvored nations.
| In conclusion he says: Il most re
spectfully submit this message to yo'
with the full hope and belief tha
when final action shall be taken moth
ing will be done which can be th'
subject of criticism by the people 0
this nation and that no law will b.
enacted which will be in contraven
ton with the Constitution or an.
treaty with the United States"
