BRYAN AND CHINDAAGREE
Question of Citizenship and Landhold-
ing VIII Be Basis of New Agree
ment Between the Nations-No In
dications Yet of What Japanese
Protest Contained

Washington. May 13.-The new
Japanese treaty will settle definitely
and forever the status of the Japan
ese as residents and landholders in
the United States and is to be the ba-
sis of the new treaty with Japan as
soon as it can be negotiated, accord
ing to information today at the state
department. This treaty, 1t was said
will be conducted independent of the
action Governor Johnson takes on the
alien law. 1t was admitted by at
taches of the department that Bryan
and Chinda believe the time has ar
rived finally to settle all points in the
controversy and have determined
there is a common ground on which
they can draw up such convention
The result of this. it is expected, will
be a definitely worded treaty which
will replace the present loose under
standing of "a gentlemen's agree
ment' made by Roosevelt with the
Japanese No definite indication OF
what the Japanese protest against the
California bill contained has yet been
made public.
It is admitted the protest is gener-
al in character and it is denied that
Japan has demanded that the
japanese be eligible to citizenship.
Persons familiar with the situation
state the protest is based on feel
ing that there is an effort everywhere
in the United States to discriminate
against the Japanese because they are
ineligible to citizenship. The protest
asks the president to remedy this dis
elimination. Diplomats think new
treaty is imperative

not put his veto on the bill.
