Even if do find that the japanese have acquired
property not according to law said Thompson, there is
law permitting to take criminal action against hem
All do is escheat their property The escheatng
part is easy enough, when the guilty is found,
but tracing down the title and locating the offenders
stitutes the big job
TRY TO TRACE HOTEL CASE
For instance, the state has been working for three
weeks trying to trace the title of of the big Seattle
hotels which thought to be Japanese property but which
the operators insist is Americanowned house can't
be done"
According to the present laws of Washington, Japa-
acquire real estate by inheritance, by mortgage
and in payment for debts, declared Thompson They
also land containing minerals metals iron clay coal
and adjoining lands for mills and machinery in the de-
veopment of the land
"A may be born to Japanese family in this
state. continued Thompson "n this instance he is
citizen and property. The may die and the
property then is inherited by the father who is aen
and there is law which says he can't hold this land
"The Japanese altho Aliens acquire property when
obtained by mortgage foreclosures There is nothing in
law to prevent them from buying upon mortgages They
also loan and then accept property in payment
after limited time for the debt There is nothing in the
law to describe the limited time
As for the leasing of property the Japanese is priv
then disguise the that it is practically impossible
for an investigator to unearth his identity
"The only way of stopping the Japanese
from acquiring property is for congress to create
stringent exclusion act This would affect
the situation nationally. If il is to be cOmbatted
by Washington state, ii will be necessary
propose constitutional amendment at the next
meeting Of the state legislature. This will then
be voted upon at the 1923 elections"
