RECOGNITION OF CHINA
BY u. S. INTERESTS JAPAN

TOXIC, April s.-Recognition of
the Chinese republic by the United
States and the progress of the bill
pending in the California Legislature
to prevent aliens from owning land
in that State are absorbing topics in
the Japanese public press.
The former matter is receiving the
more prominent discussion for the
reason that it is generally believed
that Japan will join Great Britain
and the continental powers in declin-
ing to recognize the new China until
a stable government is proved and
capacity shown to govern. In some
of the papers it is pointed out that
failure to recognize the republic in
