JOHNSON SIGNS
ALIEN LAND BILL
Brings Negotiations With Japan
to More Definite Basis.
REFERENDUM MAY DELAY
Reply of the United States to Pro-
test Made by Japan Has Been Deliv-
cred.

Governor Johnson, OF California
signed the Webb alien land bill in Sac
ramento, aimed to restrict the owner
ship Of land by Japanese and other
aliens not eligible to American citizen
ship.
The approval Of the measure
against which the Japanese govern
ment has made vigorous protest and
in an effort to sidetrack which Secre
tary of State Bryan travelled across
the continent, will place on more
certain basis the negotiations between
Japan and the federal government.
1t is understood that President VIII
son and his advisers, although inform
ed of Governor -Johnson's intention OF
signing the Webb measure, had In
tended to await the actual approval Oh
the legislation before delivering the
governments reply to the japanese
protest to Viscount Chinda, the Japa'
nese ambassador in Washington.
Governor johnson had said he would
wait a suitable length Of time before
signing the bill to. give the president
time to outline any further objection
to the measure. AS no communication
from Washington was forthcoming, ne
gave his executive approval to the
bill.
The next step, 30 far as California
is concerned, probably will be the cir
culation of petitions for a referendum
vote by the people on the act. II 2o,OoO
signatures are obtained the petition
will hold up the law till 1t has been
passed upon at the polls year from
next November.
Unless held up by referendum the
act will go into effect ninety days from
date, or on Aug. II.
Governor Johnson, after signing the
bill gave out the following statement:
~ repeat what I have before said
That California for the first time II
its history has an anti-alien law. Any
man who wishes another kind OF Law
may consistently invoke the initiative
No man who really wishes an anti
alien law will sign a referendum as tt
this law.
"If another law is sought it may bt
presented by means of the initiative
and in the meantime the present law
will be in operation. To tie up the
present law means no law until No
vember, 1914"

Illness Delays Action on Protest


Probably as a result Of the anxiety
in official circles in Japan over the
condition OF the emperor no tnstruc-
tions have been received at the
japanese embassy in Washington to
make The expected further representa-,
tions to the United States government
regarding the California alien land
act.
The embassy is engaged in collect
ing material for the continuance OF
the negotiations on the lines indicated
in the original Japanese note Of pro-
test Of May 8. This matter relates
principally to the phase of the nego-
tiations touching the possible conflict
between the California state law and
the treaty, leaving to the foreign Office
the broader questions Of policy.
Legal proceedings Of some sort
seem to be indicated, both parties de.
string to ues that means Of settlement
of the issue, and the question appar.
emily hinges upon which side falls the
responsibility for making this test
The new law will not go into effect
until Aug. TO-, before which date II
would not be possible to bring suit, and
for that reason the negotiations appear
to be losing some of the features oi
urgency that characterized the earlier
stages.

lowing cablegram from Emperor 70.
