ADVISES cooLHEADEDNEss
japanese Residents of California Urge
Deliberate Action.

San Francisco. May 22.-Cool head
edness and moderation were urged
upon the Japanese residents of Cali
fornia at mass meeting, last night,
by Soroku Ebara, a member OF the
House of Peers and of the govern
ment party, who is one of commits
sion sent to this state to investigate
the japanese land holding contro-
versy.
The venerable statesman said it was
the unanimous desire of the people of
his country to reach a satisfactory
settlement of the difficulty, and the
relations between the two countries
had been such in the past to preclude
the possibility of any but an amicable
adjustment
Il have always admired the Ameri-
can people," said Mr.. Ebara, for
their sense of justice and fair play.
With these qualities in mind you must
wait patiently. Attend to your work
and business just as usual, without
fear.
You are now as though on a ship
on a stormy sea. But the captain is
commanding the ship. Trust your
destiny to him. The ship cannot be
directed by everybody
Ayae Hattori. another member of
the commission, addressing the mass
meeting said:
Japan entered into treaty relations
with the United States after the per-
sistent persuasion of Commodore Per-
~. In their first treaty Japan and the
United States agreed that each coun-
try should be entitled to free immi-
grafton into the other.
by that invitation we came here
trusting our lives and property into
the hands of the American people.
I'm one respect we have more free
dom in this country than in others.
White or Negro may marry with the
Japanese without interference on the
part Of the law.
THE gentlemanly agreement OF
| 1907 was strictly observed by Japan
and no fault was to be found with
| the country.
I'VE believe the United States gov
eminent will solve the present ques-
| ton according to the principles o:
| Justice and humanity"
| About 1000 Japanese attended the
Injecting.
