Chinda, the Japanese ambassador to
have the phraseology of the Burnett
immigration bill, now before the sen

so that the apparent coupling OF the

ambassador had talked the matter
over with Secretary Lansing, and at
the request of the latter, asked the
president today to take up the mat
ter with Senator Smith of South Caro-

president is expected to ask that the
bill be changed to carry the language
agreed upon in this connection two
years ago when a similar proposition
came up.

ambassador called the presidents at

of this character into the bill would
