WILSON DEFERS
ACTION ON new
JAPANESE BILL
President Will Make No Move
Until California Has Def
nitely Acted =
PEOPLE DEMAND ACTION,
DECLARES RAKER
President Confident That No
Treaty Rights Will BE
Disturbed

WASHINGTON, April 9.-President
Wilson today told Rep. Baker. OF the
first California district, that the fed
eral government has no desire to in
terfere in any question which seems
to involve states rights.
The statement by the president fol-
lowed q conference with Baker on leg
islation now pending In the California
legislature which would prohibit
aliens from owning land.
The president urged the represen.
tative as he has already urged Sena-
tor Works, OF California, to use his
influence to have the legislation 30
drafted that It will In no way interfere
with pending treaty obligations. The
president was emphatic In explaining
to his caller that he believed Cali
fornia could be entrusted to settle
any proposition within it's own terri
tory In a manner that would give jus.
tice to all.
Baker exhibited telegram from J.
B. Sanford. q member of the Cali
fornia legislature, which said In part:
The people are demanding this
the legislature does not act, then the
people themselves will institute the
legislation required through the in.
ttiative provision of the California
constitution"
When inquiry was made at the exec
ntive offices whether the president, In
talking with Rep. Baker, had indi-
Gated that he favored hands on
policy until after the bill now pend.
ing has actually become q law. this
reply was made:
mo policy to deal with this matter
has been formulated. There Is no
necessity to adopt any definite post
ton at this time, but when a policy
Is finally decided on, 1t will be an
nounced here"
This statement was made to cor
rect an apparently erroneous impress
sion that President Wilson had. In
effect, pledged himself not to interfere
in any way with the bill now pending
at Sacramento.
The presidents position Is that
California will enact no law which
violates existing treaty obligations,
and that until some such law has
actually been passed, 1t is not within
its province to interfere.

CONGRATULATES MARX ON
CITY OWNERSHIP WIN

Mayor Marx, Wednesday morning.
received the following telegram from
Herbert 8. Bigelow, the Ohio legis-
lator, who knocked out the 50-year
railway franchise proposition there
and Is now leading the fight against
Mayor Hunt, of Cincinnati. O.. for
municipal ownership OF the street
railway system in that city:
Your victory In Detroit for
munipal ownership of street rail-
ways ia a victory for the cause
Of good government everywhere.
The street railways business Is az
governmental function. Political
corruption necessarily results
from our practice of farming out
government functions to private
monopolists. In Cincinnati
street car settlement has been
proposed which would In effect
rob us OF the home rule power
which we recently acquired to
own and operate our street rail-
ways In an effort to defeat this
settlement and save this power
We are encouraged by your exam
pie.
