What Japan Really Wants
By Adachi Kinnosuke

voice to this issue' He declared that the
reasons why the white races lorded it
over the colored races Of the world was due
to two main reasons: the Indifference Of
the colored races in international activities
and the shamelessly tmid and spincless for
eign policy of Japan.
DR.. Giichi Fukushima, who represented
learned society at the meeting, declared:
The settlement of the question of political
equality and equal treatment of races of the
world is too vital a question to be left and
ignored until after the establishment of
the league of nations. By way of a pre-
llminary proof that the league will never
commit injustice in its high name we wish
to see it do away with the prejudice and
determinations against races"
s'Color No Bar
Vice Admiral Kamizumi, speaking for an
association of naval men which he repre-
sented, said: "Blessings and happiness of
life which Heaven dispenses to all human
kind should not either be given or with
held because of the color of peoples skins"
And the Hon. Kanichi Otake, of the Seiyu
party, said: "The Entente Allies are plan
peace at the peace conference through the
establishment of the league of nations. But
before they can do that they must do away
with such things as race prejudice once
for all. To try to make this world a world
for the white race is the extreme of absurd
tiles. The league of nationx without elm
mating the idea of race prejudice is league
of lies"
Mr.. Saburo Shimada, the veteran leader
of the Kensei party, spoke: "The logic for
the abolition of racial discrimination is
self-cvident. 1t is too plain to call for ex-
planations In advocating it to-day, think,
we have hit upon absolutely the happiest
opportunity possible, judging from the ten
denotes of the world. -
General Kojiro Sato, writing in the ssKo
kumin," leading newspaper in Toxic.
points out that in the great war both Eng
land and France utilized the colored races
with eminently good and satisfactory re-
suits. To deny them, now that the struggle
is over, equal treatment accorded to white
races, even while they preaching JUS
tice and humanity loudly and insstently, is
to lay the foundation of great racial war
to come. Race discrimination is not con-
sstent with their profession of Justice: it
does not harmonize with the principle of
humanity; it is the real enemy OF real
democracy. He goes on to say that
If Japan is to agree to reduction of arma-
mcnts and the abolition of compulsory con-
scription laws, it is imperative for her TO
insist on one thing above all else: the
complete abandonment of discriminatory
treatment of the coloyed races of the world
by the "whtc powers"

As to the Presidents knowledge of the

ing is that if the White House table served
veal chops every day for six weeks the
President wouldn't know how the majority
of the family felt about veal chops. Our
guess is that most people are in favor Of
a league that will reduce the possibility of
war to zero; but to the accuracy of that

Ebb or Flow immigration?

The bill for the restriction of immi-
grafton was among the Congressional
legislative casualties, but an extra ses-
sion of Congress means its resuscitation.
America, which, opened it's doors to more
than million immigrants year in the
decade preceding the war, is not pleased
with the unsavory vapors arising of late
from the Melting Pot, and opinion seems
to disfavor adding to the mixture until
there is more complete fusion.
But in the opinion of Anthony Cami-
netti United States Commissioner of I'M
migration, restrictive measures may not
be necessary. In "The Forum he ex-
presses the belief that the United States
may become an emigrant nation instead
of an immigrant one.
Europe may be attractive to wage
earners for the next few years. Taxes
will be heavy, but they have been heavy
throughout the war, yet there is much
prosperity among the wage earners.
This condition will be maintained for
considerable time, he believes, because
of the shortage of men, due to the vast
age of war and the great amount of re-
constructive work to be done.
There is also factor of idealism, Mr.
Caminetti remarks. The war apparently
has cngendered in the people of Europe,
at least among the Allied nations, love
of country that makes them loath to give
up their citizenship. This condition was
observed by the Department of Immi-
grafton even before the fighting put
stop to the flow of immigrants to Amer
ica.
The Commissioners fear is that the
desirable class will prefer to remain at
home, while another class, relatively
small but very undesirable, will seek
haven here. "These will include,' says
Mr.. Caminctti "not only all those physi-
cally, mentally and morally not entitled
to admission, but also that still more un-
desirable type commonly referred to as
anarchists, who come for license rather
than for freedom" Even if no additional
laws are passed there will be a rigid
examination for the exclusion of such
undesirables, he says.
" CIlOoS WHO COUCCuU LHCTc VIII DC
a shortage of labor in America if i'm
migration is restricted Mr.. Caminetti
says:
"Without now taking up the claim that
more laborers will be needed, whether or not
the prediction is verified, desire to call
attention to the fact that supply exists
in abundance in Porto Rico, the Virgin
Islands and the Philippines. What better
way could be found to build up these
possessions what more suitable plan
be devised to bind them to us, to OBJ
tain their confidence, to secure their
trade and aid thoir development than
to engage portion Of their people in
our industries on the mainland? We
would benefit them immensely and slso
avoid the temperance Of disturbing
problem that it has been our hope, from
economic and other viewpoints, had been
settled more than quarter of a century
ago"
To Porto Rico recently returned
boatload of prosperous islanders who
had been to the United States to work
in war industries. 1t might be worth
while to make d study of these returned
islanders and determine whether their
introduction into mainland life was
beneficial to them.

ME- league of nations, its covenants,
constitutions and conceptions will be
a monument to hypocrisy if it fails to
declare that the color of ones skin has
nothing to do with justice and humanity.
That is what the japanese people think.
On the 5th Of February there was great
gathering at the famous Seiyo-ken at
Uyeno. More than five hundred leaders of
Japanese thought and achievement gath
cred there All the leading political parties
were representative Seiyu-kai, the dom-
nant party at present, and the opposition,
the kensei party, and so on. In addition.
thirtyseven organizations of various typcs
and Importance we're there also 1t was
presided over by Mr.. Tciich Sugita a pro-
minent member of the House Of Peers of
the Imperial Diet. The gathering was the
first important expression of the national
sentiment on the question of race discrimi-
nation. The gathering made the following
decla ration:
"At present the Allied powers at the
peace conference are planning for the
permanent peace of the world through
the establishment of an international
league. The people of Japan indorse it
with full-hearted approval and ceaselessly
pray for its success.
''Pregnant of Discord''
"But the discriminatory treatment
against races in practice heretofore
among certain powers is not only utterly
inconsistent with the great principle of
freedom and equality but also it is
pregnant with the fundamental causes of
international discords. If the principle
and practice of race discrimination be
permitted to abide, hundreds and thou
sands of treaties and conventions might
be piled one on top OF the other and they
would be nothing more than mere paper
temple built upon the sand, and it is
idle to hope for the peace of the world
Therefore, in order to establish the
permanent peace of the world on the
broad principle of justice and humanity,
we wish to appeal to the public opinions
of the world"
And the meeting passed the following
resolution:
r"Be it resolved, that we, the people of
Nippon, shall try to bring about the COM
plete abandonment of the discriminatory
treatment against races which has been
in practice among nations, through the
peace conference
''Because Japs Are Timid''
AS the first step in carrying out their
resolution. they decided to call upon the
government authorities to make known the
wishes and sentiment of the people on the
question of race discrimination; also to
call the attention of the peace conference
to their position in the matter. They cabled
their declarations to M. Clemenceau.
"The reason for the abandonment of
racial discrimination is exceedingly plain"

COLUMBIA, S. c., March "a
Stating that the board of trustees
of the University Of South Carolina
have no idea OF permitting the
students to dictate who shall be
president" of the institution, Gov
ernor, Cooper. in benalt OF the board
OF which he is eX-otticio chairman,
has given out a statement saying
that a special meeting would be held
before June to consider the action
OF 116 undergraduates of the uni

board last Tuesday, alleging that
the university had deteriorated UNI

and that he was cold, lacking in
inSpirational power, has not the quail
tiles of leadership which wouiu make
the university an institution of pow
er, and that he is an inefficient and
incompetent executive. The petition
however, attested to the educators
high character and integrity and to
the soundness of his scholarship.

the board would not consider the
opinions of the students, but would
investigate existing conditions among
the undergraduates at the unlVer-

What About the Tractor9

Everyone is interested in the iron
horse" 1t constitutes something
new and novel. 1t seems to be
emerging from the field of imagina-
ton into that of reality. We have
been discussing and arguing about
the tractor for a long time. Many
farmers bought the earlier types as
they came out and were dissatisfied
with the results obtained. Hence
they We're somewhat disposed 20
criticize and condemn the tractor.
Possibly their experience Justified
them in this position. On the other
hand. they may not have known how
to deal with this new implement and
may be they condemned it before it
had a fair trial | am one of those
who believe we have a great deal
yet to learn about the tractor and
that its type will be wonderfully
elapses. 1 believe, however, it has
come to stay and that it is destined
to exercise a dominating influence
on the agriculture Of our country.
things, it takes a great crisis to
bring about true realization and
understanding of the value of GER
tain practices. propositions or nipple
ments, and so the upheaval Of the
great war has proved to be the trac-
TORS opportunity. When the Ger
mans were making their first on
slaught on the British and French
lines from Flanders down to SWitZ-
erland, and when the submarines
were taking their maximum toll from
food ships, it became apparent to
these allies that food after all was
o be a determining factor in the
winning of the war. The allies start
ed out with the idea that they would
starVe Germany into surrender. About
the middle of the great struggle it
looked as though Germany, having
overrun so much other territory than
her own rich in foodstuffs, might
put the shoe on the other foot. The
depredations Of the submarine had
arisen to alarming proportions, and
so the English and French govern
ments turned their attention to the
encouragement of food production
within their respective domain on
scale which had previously not been
undertaken. England, stripped or
her manpower by the raising Of an
army of seven and a half million
men, and because of her insular po-
sition, was particularly concerned;

The best method of preserving eggs
for use at the season of the year in"
Dictated by you is through the me-
dunn of water glass. Various other
methods will no doubt prove more or
less satisfactory, but water glass Is
regarded as the standard method toI
preserving eggs for home use. Eggs
so treated may be preserved for a
year and yet be sufficiently. fresh for
cooking purposes. 1t is frequently
impossible to distinguish between
eggs which have been preserved In
water glass and those which are
only a few days old Eggs properly
more wholesome and in better con-
dition for eating than those pur'
chased from the open market.
The preservation of eggs in water
glass depends essentially on two fac
tors First, the eggs must be OBJ
supplied with plenty of shell-formins
material so the shell will be of fail
and uniform thickness. The roosts
and nests should, of course, be kept
clean and the eggs should be gath
cred daily to prevent heating by
hroody hens. Eggs aid in April. Nav
or June are the best to preserve
They should be strictly non-fertile
In preserving them it is best tt
place them in cool, dry. dark eel
lar where the tenn erature does not
rise above 60 degrees.
1t is preferable to use stone OF
earthen Jars in which to place the
eggs. To ten quarts of clean, thor
oughly boiled water which has beer
allowed to cool add one quart water
glass and stir until thoroughly mixed
The eggs should be placed In the re
certacle and the liquid poured over
them until all are completely sub
merged. Keep them submerged to the
