his colleagues in the Legislature
something to gossip about today.
Drew may be beaten on the anti
alien measure, but he is far from 81

orders to California to keep hands off
the question excluding Japanese chill
dren from schools. This country has
with China an annual trade amount

thinks Japan could manipulate mat

be pitted against the paltry dollars
and cents of trade? If Japanese come
the white man must go.
Don't permit these foreigners to
live in our midst. Don't permit them
to take our land and drive our peo-

teaches that the commingling of the
white and black races has always
resulted in a shiftless, worthless
race that the world does not
want. To compete with the yellow
race means that the white men will
starve to DEATH

Wisconsin has passed law
making it a misdemeanor for
anyone to use profane language
in public. This is a step in the
right direction and one which
other states should adopt. Pro-
family helps no one and only
lowers the person using it in the
estimation of those who are
forced to listen to him. Many
are profane because there is no
curb placed on their tongues but
if they were liable to pay a fine
every time they INDUCED in sui
phurous language the atmosphere
would become remarkably clear
er in many sections.
