pressing his determination to sign the

legislature Governor Hiram w. John
son of California telegraphed to Sec
rotary Bryan a lengthy explanation
OF the stand taken by the legislature
in passing the bill. The message was
In answer to the request telegraphed
to the governor by Secretary Bryan
at the direction of President Wilson
that the bill be vetoed.
what have tried to do is to set
forth Californias case," he said, COM
menting on his message. There has
been most astonishing lot of mis-
representation INDUCED in by East
ern newspapers and want the pub
lie to know just where we Of Califor-
mia stand"
Part of the governors message is
as follows:
For many years very grave prob.
lem, little understood in the East,
has confronted California; problem
which has been viewed with appre-
hension by the people of this state.
When the present constitution of Cal
1fornia was adopted more than thirty
years ago it contained the following
declaration:
1.-THE presence of foreigners ineli'
gible to become citizens of the United
States is declared to be dangerous to
the wellbeing of the state and the
legislature shall discourage their I'M.
migration by all means within its
power
Problem Has Become Acute.
"Of late years our problem from
another angle has become acute and
the agitation has been continuous in
the last decade in reference to our
agricultural lands until final affirma
tive action in attempted solution be-
came imperative. This attempted so
luton is found in the action of our
legislature in the passage of the
alien land bill. In the phraseology Of
this bill, in those whom it affects, in
its scope and in it's purpose we be
lieve we are within our legal and
our moral rights, and that we are
doing what is imperatively demanded
for the protection and preservation
Of the state In this enactment We
have kept ever in mind our nationa
good faith as evidenced by existing
treaties"
