The japanese in America must un.
derstand the present condition of their
own country-a small country with a
population increasing 100000 every
year. As long as japanese subjects
here are making good earnings and
have q good home, they must settle
down and enjoy their lives under the
powerful protection Of the Stars and
Stripes. For all Japanese subjects
now living In America and this Amer
lean territory I advise them that now
is the time to prepare to be good
Amerieanized Japanese. Secretary
Bryan's opinion and mine are entirely
the same in this point of view, as
shown In our conversation at Wash
