TO RENO, NEVADA
Tales Final Shot at Senator
Johnson in California
Capital.
BELIEVES The STATE IS WON
President Meets All Issues and An
sWers More Questions at Los An
geIes -Wins Over Woman
Opponent.

Sacramento Col, Sept. 22-Presi-
dent Wilson left Los Angeles at seven
o'clock last evening for Reno, New,
convinced he has won California to his
idea of the League of Nations. He
stopped here for 20 minutes to deliver
one parting shot at Senator Hiram w.
Johnson.
This change in his schedule was
brought about through the intercession
of Ben S. Allen, editor of the Sacra-
mentO Union, who told the president
that the Johnson followers in the state
capital were swinging around to the
league and that personal appeal here
would do great deal of good for the
/ esident's cause in the valley cities.
Wilson Meets All Issues.
The Shantung issue and the question
of preponderance Of British votes in
the league assembly have been the two
things that have held Californians in
doubt. The Hearst papers have played
the Shantung issue strongly. Article
x has been a stumbling block in the
way of many women.
The president has met these things.
One of the significant results of the
presidents visit is shown in a message
which Mrs. Florence Collins Porter of
Los Angeles sent to Mrs. William B.
Hamilton of San Francisco.
Mrs. Porter is one of the five woman
members of the Republican national
committee and leads the Republican
woman organizations in five Pacific
states. She has been against the league
and is quoted in the Los Angeles Ex-
aminer this morning as having pre-
pared a message to be read at meet
ing of women in San Francisco, oppos-
ing article x, and demanding reserYa-
tions along the lines proposed by Sen
atOr Johnson. She sent this message
IAN quoted in a Los Angeles paper
as opposing article x but otherwise ia
voring the League of Nations / heard
President Wilson last night and his
has convinced me- that
the treaty should be quickly ratified
as it now stands, including article x.
I ask that this statement be read at
the meeting"
The Wilson meeting at Shriners au-
ditorium is said to have been the rec
ord meeting for that place, the crowd
even Roosevelt crowd.
Francis ]. Heney was there and was
also at the Wilson dinner earlier. The
Times this morning says that he is
going on the stump on Senator John
sons trail upholding the president.
Spends Quiet Sunday.
The president had quiet day Eun-
Gay at Los Angeles. He and Mrs. VIII
son attended church services in the
morning and in the afternoon he saw
the local committee of the league to
enforce peace, and answered some
more questions. They were seven in
pertaining to Great Britain's
six votes-A question which he an
swered in San Francisco; Jap immi-
grafton, article ten, the Shantung
matter, and Germany's prospective adj
mission into the League of Nations.
The question with respect to Japanese
is as follows:
article fifteen, paragraph seven:
IF the dispute between the parties is
claimed by one Of them, and is found
by the council to arise out of mat
ter watch by international law is sole
~ within the domestic Jurisdiction of
that party, the council shall so report,
and shall make no recommendation
as to it's settlement Under this pro-
vision, is there any possibility of such
a question as the immigration of the
Japanese being taken out of our
hands?'
Answer: There is no possibility of
such a question as the immigration of
the japanese into the United States
being taken out of our hands by any
action of the league"
Interest was taken in this reply by
the president for he and all other
members of his party received COM
prehensive view of the japanese prob
lem in California when his motor was
driven for ten blocks through the Japa-
nese section of Los Angeles.
The question affecting Germany's
admission to the league asked under
what terms and conditions would, she
be accepted as fellow member, and
this was the presidents answer:
''It is expected that Germany will
be admitted to the league when it has
proved that its change of constitution
is genuine and permanent and that
it has in fact, as well as in form,
aligned itself with the free self-gov-
erning peoples
