Tokyo.-An inquiry into the situa
tion between Japan and the United
States by persons in high position who
follow the trend of events in modern
Japan, but who may not be charac,
terized as official, has evolved the fol
growing out of the proposed Cali
fornia anti-Japanese measures:
1. A genuine feeling Of apprehen-
sion pervades responsible japanese
quarters over anti-Japanese move
ments in the United States because of
the fear that it may lead to intensified
exclusion movements against the
Japanese elsewhere especially in
british: Dominions.
2. The Japanese contend that If the
Japanese question in California is
left alone it will settle itself, because
when the present settlers who cannot
be naturalized either die or return to
Japan, only their legal American
posterity will remain, who in the
course of generations, will be assimi-
lated.
8. The Japanese contend that
Americans are confusing present ne
gotiations, which are aimed to protect
the acquired rights of the Japanese
now in California, with the general
question of immigration, which is not
involved.
4. The Japanese maintain that
the voting of the California measure
would add fuel to the anti-American
sentiment caused by America blocking
what the Japanese call their legiti-
mate and necessary expansion in the
Far East, especially in China and 81
IBERIA.
). While genuinely alarmed at anti
Japanese movements abroad, leading
japanese secretly are disturbed!a at the
growth of the individualist meve-
ment at home rising from the dissat-
isfactionf of the, people over the eco
nomic and political conditions and
poverty in large cities .....

cans are blocking Japanese progress
in China and in the Far East gen
orally. Japan must find an outlet
and opportunities for her population,
which is increasing at the rate OF
100000 yearly" said one official
Z. To a. direct question put by
correspondent whether or not war
was a possibility, the reply of this
official and of leading japanese civil
ians unvarying is that war with Amer
lea of course is an impossibility, bur
that it was regretable that an es-
arrangement in friendly relations was
within the range of possibility. The
replies were unanimous that the. Jap
anese believe the time has arrived
when they must speak out frankly in
defense of our interest, and say what
we want to in the world"

IL you believe yourself TO be old at

further in store for you you should
see Thomas Meighan in William De-
Miles Splendid Paramount picture
Conrad in Quest OF His Youth" an
ebrated story OF the same title. which
opened weeks engagement at
Moore's Garden Theater yesterday.
The showing was in the nature OF
an ovation to Mr.. Meighan who en-
Unused film patrons by his memorable
work In The Miracle Man" fas'
cinated them as the butler in Male
and Female" and made them love him
as the young artist in THE Prince
Chap" in which production he became
a full hedged Mar.
Without telling the story In detail,
Il can be stated that the central
thema developed--that one never
gIows old when one loves-fills one
with n certain amount of enthusiasm
At least IL seemed to have this effect
upon the older persons who saw the
play last night. Conrad finds II inn
possible to travel the road back TO
seventeen. because there is none
but when he fell in love. presto. his
vanished youth seemingly returned.
Mr.. Meighan portrays the role OF
Conrad Warrener. who returns from
a military campaign in India to Lon
don fully convinced that he is an old
man although not thirty-fve and
seeks by reliving the scenes OF his
youth. to make himself young again
The failure OF his various attempts
to relive his past. bring out deli
cate combination OF comedy and
pathos such as is seldom brought 10
us on either stage or screen. How he
finds ultimately the secret of youth
finishes the picture with a delightful
romance.
The production will also undoubted
ly appeal. not only in theme and plot
but by virtue OF the excellent work
of the talented cast of favorites
which includes Margaret Lomis. Mabel
