B|NFORD SPOKE ON
JAPANESE PROBLEM
CalifOrnians Must Lift ORR
entails to Higher Intellec-
tual Plane.

The only solution to the Japanese
question in California is an honest eff
fort to lift the Japanese to higher
planes of moral and social ideals, and
deal with them in a Christian spirit.
This was the substance of the talk
which the Rev. Quincy Binford made
at the Main Street Friends church
yesterday morning. Rev. Binford has
been a missionary to Japan for four
teen years and speaks from a thor
ough knowledge and acquaintance of
the people and their customs.
Rev. Binford said that the people of
this country are expecting too much
of the Japanese, who only few de-
cades ago were the slaves of a heath
en- religion and customs. Naturally
the ideals, standards and morals are
not as high as those which the Amer
lean people set before themselves.
He stated that the English speak
ing peoples were not Christians be-
cause of any Unborn virtues, but
through the grace of Jesus Christ, and
that even with his help they often
fall short.
The proper thing for the Californ-
ians to do, he said, would be TO instill
into the Japanese citizens the high
ideals by setting an example of Chris
tian charity. They are not asking in
termarriage and Rev. Binford does not
advocate that they be placed on an
equal social footing.
He does say that the people of the
United States should treat the Japan
csc according to their declarations
! that all men are created free and
equal and have a right to justice
