note on the California alien land question

Chinda last Wednesday.
So far there has only been the most
cursory examination OF the note. In the
verbal exchanges between Secretary
Bryan and Ambassador Chinds and be-
tween the ambassador and President
Wilson the State Department has been
to some extent prepared for the newest
points made by the Toxic foreign office.
But because of their novelty. such as
the point relating to the fourteenth
amendment and fine distinctions sought
to be drawn between the relative func-
tons of the national and state govern
ments the reioinder must be most care
fully analyzed before any serious effort
can be made to draft a reply.
