European Capital Takes a Hand
in Alien Land Law
Legislation.
STRONGER FORCE THAN JAPAN
Would Amend Measure Already
Passed So as Not to Include
the Rights of All
Foreigners.

Sacramento, Cal. April 16.--Not the
exclusion Of the Japanese farmer. but
the probable effect Of the proposed
alien land law on European capital
invested in the state Is now the prin-
cipal issue involved in discussion of
the bills proposing to restrict the
rights of foreigners in California, one
Of which was passed yesterday by the
Assembly.
Protest has arisen from representa-
tivcs of English and continental syn
diCates. and a stronger influence than
that represented by the formal COM
plants of the Japanese government is
being brought to bear in an effort
to kill the measure altogether. or to
amend them in such a way as to eff
feet only the Japanese.
The Assembly bill. passed yesterday,
permits corporations controlled by
persons eligible to citizenship to own
property. but the Senate bill, now
awaiting a vote. makes no distinction
. in races The Senate bin is I'm line
with the sentiment heretofore exist
ing against giving offense to Japan
/ BY discriminating in favor of the sub
