A STRAINED FEELING
Growing in Japan Over Bills Now Be.
.. fore California Legislature.

Toxic. Jan. 12.-Upon the receipt of spe
cial cable dispatches from San Francisc'
relating to bills now pending before this
California Legislature, Japanese news
papers today elaborate on the strained
relations which may arise from the pas
lSage of bills and the enactment of laws
forbdding the ownership of land and CHI
attendance of public schools by Japanes,
residents of California. A majority OF
the papers assume the passage of the
bills as a probability and protest against
them as an injustice to the Japanese nov
living in California The Ashia, the Jill
and the Nichi Nlchi express surprise ut
what is termed an evidence of unfriend-
illness after the sincere effort on Japan's
part to prove her friendship toward the
people of the United States.
The extreme opposition papers assail
the Japanese government for failing in
to the arms of nation which at the
first opportunity not only shows it's un-
friendly spirit. but even denies equal OPP
portunity to the Japanese"
Newspapers published in English repre-
senting British and German interests are
making much of the California Lesisla-
lures action, and are pointing out that
America while recently endeavoring to
create an impression of friendliness to-
ward Japan. in reality was unfriendiy
The situation is seriously embarrassing
to Americans living in Japan, especially
since this incident follows so closely the
creation of an excellent feeling from the
visit of the Atlantic fleet. the American
commission to the Japanese Exposition
and the excursion of business men from
the Pacific coast of the United States.
The foreign office is endeavoring to
convince the protesting newspapers that
the action of the California Legislature
does not represent general American sem
timent but the publications continue to
be extremely pessimistic in their tones.
and some of the editorials of the opposi-
tion press becoming violent are likely
temporarily to infiame popular opinion
and seriously hamper the exercise of
American influence in japan for many
years.
