to forget" the controversy over the
California law forbidding japanese
citizens TO own land in that state.
ambassador Sato, the new japanese
diplomatic representative here, made
this plain today in an interview with
a representative OF the international
News service. He also expressed as
his opinion that Japan will. in every
possible way. demonstrate her
friendship toward the United Stases.
This statement is interpreted by
students Of the situation in the far
east to remove, for the present at
least, one OF the largest under-the-
surface causes for friction which
has jeopardized relations between
the United States and Japan.

tutional restriction which prevents
the federal government from inter

troversy altogether"

Ambassador Sato said, lis designed
TO prevent the naturalization Of
Japanese citizens in this country.
Against such legislation we shall
continue TO protest. However. that

nothing immediate can be done"
The ambassador expects to go to
