CAM|NETTI MAY
RESIGN TO RUN
FOR GOVERNOR
SITUATION is TENSE BETWEEN
BRYAN AND COMMISSIONER
IMMIGRATION

WASHINGTON, D.NE Feb. a.
That Commissioner General of Immi-
grafton Caminetti is preparing to re-
sign and become candidate for the
Democratic nomination for governor
of California is believed here.
Though Caminetti. when inter
viewed on the report that he would
soon quit the government service,
said that the reports are news to
me-" he did not say whether he
would or would not soon resign as
mmissioner-general of immigration.
Ii is believed that he will desert the
Wilson administration, in view OF
the recent developments in the situ-
alton surrounding the pending immi-
grafton bill and the Asiatic prob
lem of the Pacific coast.
Gossip was busy today at the cap
itol concerning Caminetti's plans and
the tense situation that has de-
| yeloped between the California and
Secretary OF State Bryan over Cam
inetti's bold disregard of the Bryan
effort to smother the Raker Asiatic
exclusion bill in the immigration com
rnittee. in the interest of peace with
Japan, as Bryan openly told the com
mittee at the recent secret hearings
on the immigration bill.
Caminetti appeared twice before
the committee and urged that al
Asiatics be kept out of this country.
Only one inference can he draw
from this situation, declared Con
gressmen today, and that is tina
Caminetti is not in sympathy viii
the immigration views of Bryan AM
the Wilson administration and tina
he intends soon so sever his con
nection with the government.
Coincident with these reports
was said that Caminetti will striy
to secure the Democratic nomination
! for governor OF California on pla
! form principally Of Asiatic exclusion
/ II Is said this is the real reason VIII
he has opposed Bryan on the Asiati
, question. There are reports In circ'
] lation that Bryan is greatly angere

been raining steadily for twelve
hours. He suggested that Superin-

would be played Monday, but after
canvassing the situation it was deem
ed too expensive to make the jour
