TOXIC, July 9.-Revision of Japan's
immigration laws Is going to be urged
in the next session of the diet.
while there is now in force in Italy
a regulation by which the government
encourages, directs and protects i'm
migrants, in Japan the law pertaining
to emigrants was made rs years ago,
so it is no wonder that it is c~ontrad1c-
tory to the present state of progress
of our country" said. MI. Kanzaki,
chief secretary of the Japanese Asso-
citation at San Francisco, who has
come home to work fol the reform.
Through the entire text, the words
do not or shall be fined are found in
p~rofusion, but the rules are all con-
trary 30 present day civilization. My
secon mission is to promote America
Japanese friendship. Since the racial
equality clause was introduced at the
Paris Conference, anti-Japanese feel
ing in California seems to have be-
come accumulated, and not only do the
Americans feel u~nfriendly towards the
Japanese laborers, but they are now
inclined to look upon the Japanese in
general as a dangerous people. In
these circumstances new steps u De

I sat alone in the little one-room
shack and listened to the roar OF the
guns twenty miles away. 1t was very
late. I wondered when Alexis Would
return.
A part of that day I had spent, as
was my custom, in singing to the
wounded men. My six weeks training
as an nurse had gained me
his privilege, as well as the priceless
gift of being near my husband on
the Russian battlefront. In the hos
pital I had tried to imagine that l was
again behind the footlights at the
Kreevoje Zerkalo, and that Alexis was
sitting enraptured in a box. But he
was out in the trenches, fighting for
civilization-and me.
There was little applause in these
hospital concerts. When l finished a
song I would look at the men, lying
with bandaged limbs and bodies. Some
were too weak to clap their hands;
most of the others had orders not to
move. ut would reopen their
wounds" said the surgeon. But there
were smiles, and these smiles were
calls for encores.
When not singing or nursing / was
out with the automobiles, washing
them, reflling the gasstanks, or in the
field kitchens cooking, washing plates
or carrying food.
But tonight! This was no time for
anyone not wounded to waste on such
pastimes. A mass of Austrian. SOL
diers had TORI a gap in the Russian
front not, far away. Reinforeements
were being hurried up. and our men
were making brave stand. When am
| munition ran out, they had fought
| with gunbutt and bayonet- / had
been helping to carry ammunition to
the second-line soldiers.
Alexis was still out on that task.
| When would he return? I was tired
| but sleepless.
I heard the tread of men, then a
sharp rapping at the door. I flung
| it open. -Four men entered-carrying
a stretcher. On it lay an inert form,
blanket-covered. I threw back the
| blanket.
