DRASTIC LAWS DIRECTED
AGAINST JAPANESE
Governor Finds Proposed Legislation
In California Goes Further Than
Laws in Nippon,

Sacramento. Cal, Jan l6.--Govcr-
nor Gilett has received "A letter from
the japanese consul general at san
Francisco outlining the laws of his
country affecting the ownership OF
land by aliens. This was at the re-
quest of the governor when the consul
visited him TO protest against pro-
posed legislation against japanese
holding property in this state.
A. NJ. Drew, of Fresno, introduced
early in the session a measure pro-
Viding that aliens may hold lands for
five years after they shall have
reached the age of twenty-one, but II
at the end Of that time the lands shall
not have been conveyed to bona flde
purchasers, they shall be sold by the
state,
1t also provides that no contract
agreement or lease of real estate shan
be made to an alien for a longer pc
riod than one year. In order to de-
termine what action to take when the
bin should come to him for signature.
the governor asked the representative
of Japan to furnish him with infor-
nation of the treatment accorded
aliens i'm the islands, and the reply
shows that Drew's bill is more drastic
than the japanese law. In that coun-
try aliens are not allowed to own land
owing to the crowded condition of the
islands. but corporations may lease
property for one hundred years, Civ
ing them all the rights. except actual
ownership allowed to natives.
The governor said today that he
had not completed his Investigations,
and was not ready to pronounce an
opinion on the merits OF the proposed
measure.

Washington, u. G., Jan. lb,--An IN
formal conference Of senate leaders
today determined that there was not
time enough at the present session OF
congress to give the necessary atten-
tion TO statehood legislation, az the
admission of a territory Is held likely
To result in prolonged discussion. The
friends OF statehood OF whom there
are many, are not discouraged, how
ever, and still hope that the attitude
OF certain senators may change before
the session has proceeded much fur
thcr and that the bills may yet be
passed before the present session has
expired Senator Foraker, who has
been friend OF statehood for years,
points ont with much force that the

There is no doubt that the sub
