Ohio Launching
High Food Fight

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 30,-
Ohio's fight against high food prices
was launched in earnest here today
with the gathering of prosecutors
from the ss counties. Governor Cox
and Attorney General Price directed
the conferences.
Evidence of price manipulation
poured In on Price from all parts
of the state. This evidence came In
the form of hundreds Of letters and
kilograms from housewives who
were invited to submit their knowl.

Cox said he hoped to curb prices
by prosecution of persons guilty of
manipulation of foodstuffs. rigid en-
forcement OF the cold storage laws
and perhaps new system of licens-
ing food dealers.

He does not enter the United States
unless he can prove to our satisfac
ton that he comes not as a laborer.
The Japanese woman immigrant can
not enter this country il she comes
for immoral purposes.
THE wonderful wealth to be ac-
cumulated by the Japanese. conn
pared with the pittance for which
they labored at home. is the control
ing impulse which has resulted in
the Japanese problem we face today.
The woman works like a horse, and
her husband does the same. The
Japanese knows no hours. He can
raise two crops where only one crop
grew before"
Under the law. no Japanese can
own land in Washington. But there
is nothing to prevent the child OF
the Japanese. who is regarded as an
American citizen, from owning land
and property. And that is what hap
pens. Title to land and property
in the United States can be held in
the name of the child and nobody
can deny them that right. If grad
ual miscegenation resulted from jap
anese immigration the problem would
not be so irksome. but the Japanese
cannot and will not be absorbed by
our white population.
Deportation Not Feasible
What is to be the solution of this
vexatious problem is not for me to

Here's what the Japanese own
or control in and near Seattle:
Hundreds of acres of the best
farm land.
Scores of hog farms, which
are operated in unspeakably
filthy condition.
Many wholesale and retail
meat markets, and constantly en-.
croaching on white owners.
The city public market.
The Oriental Trading Co.,
wholesale house, which supports
Japanese retailers and helps
break down white competition.
More than a score of restau.
rants which are served by Jap
farmers and Jap wholesalers.
One hundred and thirty.six of
Seattle's grocery stores.
More than a score of barber
shops.
Two hundred and fifteen OF Sc.

A number Of garages and auto

Several importing and export
ing companies.
More than a score of clothing
and shoe stores.
Dozens OF fruit stands, cigar
stands, soft drink stands and

What Is a picture Bride?

to marry girl back in Japan.
He may never have seen or
heard OF her. He does not wish
to go back to Japan for her.
But he marries her by proxy.
That is to say, the Seattle Japa-
nese sends word to male friend
in Japan that he, the friend, Is
to marry the girl for him. Upon
the marriage, the girls picture
is affixed to a passport, which
is vised by immigration officials
in Japan. The girl is allowed to

take ship for Seattle. Upon her
arrival here she is held at the
immigration station until her
proxy-husband arrives to claim
her. Except for these picture
brides" few Japanese women
come here. Up to May, 1917,
the marriage overseas was held
not binding, and second cere-
mony was performed, in accord
ance with American rites, upon
the arrival of the picture bride
in Seattle. Since that time, how
ever, the original ceremony in
Japan has been held sufficient
by the courts.
Sixteen hundred such brides
passed thru the Seattle immigra-
ton station every year for the
past three years.

What can an immigration official
do about It?
Nothing, except to wise the pic
ture brides passports and the pre-.
tensions OF the husband.
1T Is a serious mistake to admit
immigrants who cannot and will not
be assimilated by the American pop
ulation," high immigration Off
cial said today. "The Japanese herd
together, rear offspring with won
derful productivity, and live their
own lives. Even in our midst. the
Japanese is a thing apart. He might
as well live on the planet Mars so
far, as his assimilation by our popu-
lation is concerned.
Impossible to Assimilate
ITO me the crux of the evil lies
In the inability of the Japanese to
miscegenate with our white popula-
ton. or course, there is no desire
on the part of Americans to assimi-
late its Japanese population, but the
very fact OF its impossibility resolves
Itself into grave menace to Ameri.
can welfare on the Pacific coast. The
truth of this assertion is apparent
when you scan the unhappy unions
of japanese husbands and American
wives. Pigmentary preference. be it
black. brown. red or yellow, leads to
nothing but grief.
THAT being so, we are confronted
with growing japanese popula ton,
growing at the rate of thousands a
year, and an alien population that is
absorbing American industries at an
alarming rate. The menace cannot
be emphasized too greatly.
Officials Helpless
I'VE in the immigration service
are helpless when II comes to bar.
ring them out We are compelled to
interpret the law as we find it-and
under the law there is nothing to
prevent the Japanese from flooding
this coast. The only Japanese we
can and do bar Is the laborer and the
immoral woman.
II do not decry the industry and
the sobriety Of the Japanese, but we
of the immigration service cannot
but see tiit SIpWln OF Japanese In
fluence in Seattle and on the Coast
in general.
Deportation of Japanese is a
problem which is extremely delicate
at the present time, when the peace
treaty is hanging fire and Japan is
involved in the Shantung contro.
versy. 1t may be that Japanese i'm
migration to the Pacific coast may
dwindle IL the Japanese acquire un-
disputed title to the Shantung, but
even SO, the problem remains with
Seattle.
THE fact that the japanese con.
troll the public markets, own half
OF the hotels in Seattle and are
spreading thruout various industries
Is enough to arouse Americans. But |
what can we do about 1t? The law |
allows the Japanese immigrant to
land in Seattle.
Eve investigate every single i'm.
migrant who steps from a steamship. |

cording to figures compiled by The Star today from o

vast majority of them turned up as picture brides

the immigration station in Seattle
During the period total of 1851 male Japanese
admitted In other words total of 1888 Japanese
male and female admitted to the Port of Seattle
and that is fair average annual increase in the Japanese
population of Seattle Add to this Japanese influx the fact
that Japanese mothers bear five times many children

JAPANESE PICTURE BRIDES ARE:

WHITE OR AP--WHICh?
Shall the Pacific Coast be Japanized?
! This is the ONE big question raised by
Miller Freeman's interview in The Star.
And it is the one question which Editor
S. K. Arima, of the North American
Times, the Japanese daily published here,
FAILS to answer.
It is not question of how energetic, Industrious
or able, or moral the Japanese are how prolific
their women Admitting they great race,
the question still remans "Shan this Coast be under
white control, or under the Japanese"
mir. Freeman seems to fear that Japanese women

But is also the right of the Americans hdUe and to hold

growing population of Japanese the Pacific coast.
We do not want this the strife and the
which the South has negro question
The not to blame They yictimized and
bloody four years among brothers.
This we would avert on the coast.
If we check the ever growing racial
irritation NOW, we can avoid war. As
we delay, the remedy will have to be
more drastic.
In the Sacramento valley of California, the country
J.p.nzed already 1t does not make for healthy condition
Of affairs Hatred cropping where under other cond

The fact that both the United States

Japanzing of the coast cannot be tolerated.
BY the of the "gentlemens agreement" it in

Pacific coast which is demanded.
We are face to face with conditions, not theories.

be part of America. Always they remain part of
Japan.
Is lUise them for either Japan the United States

The United States Post Office Depart
ment has sent cut thousands of letters
asking for constructive criticism, and
suggestions for better service in handling
the mails. We want to suggest in be-
half of Waldo County that it would i'm
prove our service, and be very pleasing
to us, if Mr.. Burleson would restore the
railway mail service between Belfast and
Burnham. But this is only local mat
ter. We presume this does not much in
terest the P. O. D. What the depart
ment desires, or what, perhaps, the de-
partment wants US to believe it desires,
is suggestion of the best means of i'm
proving the mail service all over the
country. If this be the case, "may we
not suggest" that the first thing to do
will be to remove Mr.. Burleson from the
office which he holds and send him back
to Texas? Then, if President Wilson will
appoint somebody as postmaster general
who has spent Is or 80 years in the work
of dispatching, transporting and deliver
ing the mail, no further sugges ton will
be needed.
