The problem of Japanese immi-
grafton to the Pacific coast, which
stirred up such a row during the
last administration, has come to a
head again through bill introduced
in the House by Representative
Hayes (rep., Calif) and reported
unanimously from the committee on
immigration, of which he is a mem
Der. The bill, innocent looking on
its face, is now the subject of diplo-
matte correspondence between the
United States and Japan, and If it
becomes a law, it will probably set
tie not only the Japanese problem,
but immigration questions that arise
in connection with other races.
The principal thing that the jap
anese objected to in the San Fran
cisco school dispute was the word,
'Mongolian." They declared that
they were not Mongolians and that,
anyhow, they were entitled under
the famous "most-favored nation
clause" to the privileges extended
to any other nation.
Hayes bill gets around this in
clever way and is reported by the
house committee on immigration as
being based on the soundest prinCi-
pies that should govern all immigra-
tion into this country
No race is mentioned in the pro-
posed law; the terms Japanese or
Mongolian do not appear. 1t is lit
tie bill and very short and seeks to
amend a very obscure section of the
revised statutes by declaring that
no person who is not eligible to nat
uralization as a citizen of the United
States shall be admitted to this
travellers and stu
dents. Japanese are not eligible to
citizenship under the laws of the
United States. But, when they are
admitted, their children become ma
tive-born citizens. Hayes argues
that If a person is not fit to become
a citizen, his children should not be-
come citizens through the admission
of their parents to this country. The
bill appears to be in fair way 10
be passed at this session of congress.
