MUCH TOLD IN THE LETTER
Epistle Better Than Any Other Fossil ble Means of Getting a True
 Acquaintance.

Do you really want to get well ac- quainted with your friend or your sweetheart? Then go away for a while, where correspondence will be- come necessary. There Is nothing like letter writing to bring out many things that would remain hidden from the beloved in ordinary conversation There may be many things hidden in your own self that you do not suspect. People who have become thoroughly familiar with each other sometimes become lazy about expressing them selves when they are together A few commonplaces hand-clasp, a glance-these often suffice. But in the letter one must express himself and much better and more clearly than when there is expression of the face and gesture to assist in an interpreta- ton. You will never really know your beloved until you have had opportu- nifty for a long and full correspon- dence in writing

 WILSON'S VIEWS
SECRETARY MEETS WITH CALL, FORNlA LEGISLATURE AND
 ASKS CONSIDERATION.
PEOPLE WANT ALIEN LAW
Statesman Feels Law Makers That They Have Right to Pass Measure
 but Suggests Alterations.

western Newspaper Urion News Service.
 sacramento, California In the fullness of her right as a state may enact rigid land law barring Ori. ehlals rom ownership, but such ac- l'on would be against the earnest wish or the national administration.
 1hls is the substance of the mes sage William J. Bryan, secretary Of state and personal representative of President Wilson delivered to a secrer conference attended only by Governor Johnson, Lieutenant Governor Wallace and 120 members of the California legislature.
 Nlth Secretary Bryans consent plans were laid for an immediate hear. Ing. Until the doors of the assembly chamber were closed and locked Sec. retary Bryan refused to give an ink ing or his message to any one and even at the conference he spoke only after legislators had explained fully the public demand for alien land legis lation that brought about the present situation.
 Those who expected Secretary Bry- all to eXpound new theory of states rlshts were disappointed, as were those who expected predictions of war. AdVlce in the name of President Will son was all Mir. Bryan had to offer, and the paramount question here is whether such advice will overcome the previously announced determination of the Progressive Republican majority to enact an anti-alien land holding law along lines already agreed upon.
 Secretary Bryan reaffirmed the states right to act in a manner it saw fit but suggested several alternatives to the passage of a bill restricting aliens Ineligible to citizenship" bas- ing his reasons on the broad founda- tion of public policy. Briefly these al ternatiyes in the order in which they were suggested are as follows:
 First Delay immediate action and allow the state department to try to accomplish the ends desired by means of a new treaty with Japan
 Second. Delay immediate action and appoint a commission to investigate the subject of alien land ownership and act in conjunction with the presi- dent in securing relief.
 Third. Enact law similar to the statute of Illinois, which permits aliens to hold land for a period not exceed ing six years and applies alike to all aliens.
 Fourth, Enact a law similar to the federal statute governing land own ership in the District of Columbia, which is a general law applying to all aliens.
