no such relations exist.
THE Secretary OF state denies the
proposition advanced by you TO the effect
that the California statute discriminetes
against the Japanese subjects, and In the
matter OF land ownership aliens are
usually, internationally speaking. placed
on national or most favored nation foot
ing.
I'm support OF that denial he cites the
practice which prevails In the United
States on the subject OF allen land owner
ship. and he adds That the citizens OF
countries not having such treaty with
the United States Il. e., treaty granting.
either expressly or by inference. under
the most favored nation clause. the right
OF land ownership were unable 10 enjoy
the right OF ownership
This statement mas naturally caused
surprise to the imperial Government and
they confess their inability to understand
|it. II not only. conflicts directly with the
California law In question and IL irrecon-
cilable with the statutes OF many states
OF the Union by which the right OF alien
ownership IL accorded independently OF
treaty stipulations, but II declares In ef-
feet that the discrimination complained OF,
which has been repeatedly recognized AS
a fact, Is without foundation.
THE laws OF japan on the subject OF
alien land tenure are not illiberal, but In
any case they contain no provisions ais
eliminating In any manner whatever
against the citizens of the United states.
THE Secretary OF State, II Ii observed.
dwells at length upon the subject OF labor
immigration into the United States and In
the same relation he refers to the action
OF Japan in circumstances somewhat
analogous TO those existing In America.
The reason or necessity for this ex-
position Is not understood by the i'm
perial Government. The question OF i'm
migration has nothing whatever to do
with the present controversy and any
reference TO II only tends to obscure the
