TY COBB DOES BEST
ONLY WHEN PUSHED

The best way to get Ty Cobb to show
his remarkable skill at its best is to
tell him that somebody else is better

game. A couple of years ago, when
Joe jackson began clubbing 'em out
for a mark around 400, someone, sald
to y:
jackson = going to beat you out on
batting this year. He's hitting AIS
now. -
That so! .4l5, ehf That quite a
healthy average" answered Ty. But
Jackson won t beat me out. II he bats
800, | II bat above that mark" ..
jackson finished the season with .40S
and Ty finished with ago.
"That fellow MaiseI Of the Yanks is
the greatest haserunVer in the Ameri-
can league Ty was told during the
spring.
"Maisel is fast-hut he's not the

strating. He has stolen forty-four
bases in sixty two games, an amazing
average. If he maintains that average
until the end of the season he will have

MAUI PINE PACK
BELOW EXPECTATIONS

It is stated that the Mani pineapple
pack this year will be disappointing
to the packers. This state of affairs
is due to the heavy rains of last sum
mer, which wrought havoc with the
pineapple plants in the Haiku district.
A large percentage of fruit beng
canned runs very small, and the quail
ty is said to be below the average.
In consequence the canneries will be
very short on No. 81. size cans, and
long on No IS and smaller sized cans.
The percentage Of fruit of the higher
grades will also be lower than usual.
The HOnOma ranch, on West Maui
is the only district on the island which
did not suffer from the rains. On tho
contrary the pack at this cannery IL
said to be unusually fine, the ranct
being short on the smaller sizes needle !

THOMPSON SAYS
OzAWA THREATENED
United States Attorneys Office
Files Brief Opposing the
e Petition Of Japanese

j. Wesley Thompson, assistant Unit.
ed States attorney, yesterday filed brief
opposing the citizenship petition Of
Takao Ozawa. a..ss- Et E,t
. ozawa, who is employed rs clerk
by a local firm, made application for
United States citizenship. He was told
that according to the statutes only
free white persons or those Of African
descent or nativity are eligible to citi.
ship. =,
He thereupon fled a document in the
Office Of the clerk Of the federal court,
outlining certain reasons why, in his
opinion, citizenship should be granted
him. .E..l'. 80.
Attorney Thompson, in his brief, de.
clares that the petitioner Is morally
unfit for citizenship owing to the fact
that in his argument he threatens the
United States with action by the gov.
eminent of Japan, IL he be not allowed
to become a citizen.
The portion of Ozawa's argument
which is construed by Mr.. Thompson
as a threat against the United States,
is as follows:
what the United States win gain
by humiliating Japanese whom our
Uncle Sam assisted to become one of
the great five powersf The United
States will gain nothing. She only
create bitter feeling in the minds of
Japanese against the United States.
Thus Transforming a good friend into
enemy. -. 80. .r,, IT,.
con the other hand, IL the United
States treats Japan fairly, as she did
before, what will she gaini Japanese
will surely respect American people as
she did before. Peace between the
United States and Japan will continue
forever. >a as.. :. s,o..y ~, =
"For the safety and honor Of the
United States, / sincerely hope that
the United States win treat Japanese
fairly. I" w. t..t : So
With reference to legal requirements
the brief says; $500, .... ~ T..
1--WE must not lose sight of one
great principle underlying naturaliza-
ton: that no alien can claim the in
herent right to become citizen of
the United States, but under certain
proper, conditions he may ask for the
privilege, Also, that every civilized
organized government has the inherent
right to say what class of aliens may
or may not become its citizens and
dwell within its borders. On these two
principles rests the stability of every
government" E. .sn
"The petitioner asserts, 1" continues
the brief, "that at least fifty Japa-
nese have been naturalized and fur.
nishes list of fourteen-he does not
furnish the conditions or circumstances
under which they were naturalized,
hence discussion of the same is use
less and worthless. 'P't@' !" ".
; The brief concludes with the follow.
ing observations and conclusions by
Mr.. Thompson; ~. ~ ~ &. .
81. No alien Japanese. has ever
been legally naturalized; rs
"2. No Japanese has ever been per
mitted to become q citizen of the Unit.
ed States when his case reached q su-
perior court; =,
: "3. No superior court ever sane
toned or allowed the naturalization
Of any aliens of the Mong6lian race;
-. No superior court ever allowed
the naturalization of any alien, where
that court passed upon the question,
except one of the Caucasian race or
the Negro race"
