MAY CHECK JAP's PLANS

Sacramento, Cal. Aug. State Leg
islators have their eyes on plans
which the Japanese are said to be
forming in an effort to nullify the
new alien land law which becomes
effective next week, and will prob
ably take steps to circumvent the
Japanese at the next session of legis-
lature.
They are combining their farm land
units and incorporating stock COM
panies in the BELIEF that the stock
in the corporations upon their death
may be transferred to heirs.
The maximum life granted to do
nestle corporation under the Cali
fornia law is fifty years. All of the
Japanese corporations that have been
organized since the alien bill was
passed are formed for the limit.
The California law also provides
that corporation is privileged 10 re-
incorporate on the expiration of its
charter.
