JAPAN STOLID
ON COAST LAW
Tokyo Press Unyielding on
Immigrant Question Of
California.
MAY STOP MIGRATION
Editorials Demand End of
..'Persecution" of Land
Owners.
MAY STOP MIGRATION
CPubIic Ledger seryice.)

Editorial excerpts from the Japa-
nese press dealing with present ne
gotiations between Japan and the
United States tend to bear out the
belief expressed here in official cir
cles that Japan apparently consid-
ers all concessions must be made by
the United States in the prospective
settlement.
The latest note of this sort of feel
ing to appear in Japanese news
papers is that the Tokyo government
is willing to live up to the gentle
mans agreement" now if the United
States will prevail upon California
TO modify existing anti-Japanese
legislation and see that no more
persecution" of Japanese is in
dulged in. The promise to live up
to the agreement is called in one
paper a concession" by Japan.
Japanese Paper Quoted.
In a recent issue the Osaka Mai
niChi, an influential japanese pub
lication, said:
When the situation is considered
from Japan's standpoint there is
ample hope that the question can
be settled perfectly and in manner
COnsOnant with justice and human
ity. To be more particular. Japan
should scrupulously observe the
Eentleman's agreement, and see to it
that no further immigrants are sent
TO America. In return for this
America should adopt no such laws
as to give further persecution to the
Japanese already lawfully in Amer
lea.
The California aGitatoEs say that
even if no further immigration
. comes from Japan California prac-
tiCally will be occupied by Japa-
ncsc. 1t needs no words to show
that this plea has no foundation in
fact 1t is,' however, the influx of
further immigrants which is really
dreaded by the Americans. We have
no hesitation in urging that the
cause of their alarm should be re-
moved by refraining from forcing
any further emigrants on America,
for it is contrary to international
etiquette to send immigrants when
they are dislIked.
The JaPanese Viewpoint.
The only concession which Japan
can make with regard to the anti
japanese question is strictly to OBJ
serve the gentleman's agreement
and to declare that she has no in
tention of sending any further i'm
migrants to America. In return for
this concession Japan should ask
abolition of discrimination of the
Japanese already in America, in
Cluding modification of the existing
land ownership law. The new law
under contemplation is extremely
anti-Japanese, and We should offer
the strongest oppOsitiOn to il"

 Important measures which failed Of passage included: The soldier bonus bill, which was passed by the House last Saturday night but which was not taken up by the Senate.
 The budget bill which President Will son vetoed and which the senate falled To pass after the House had amended 1t to meet the Presidents objection The bill to regulate and control the meat packing industry. N The cold storage bill.
 The bill to abolish the housing cor Eporation.

tions not requiring House action, and the House adopted about the same number not needing Senate action.
 Much of the session was occupied by another unsuccessful effort to agree on a peace settlement which would end the technical state of war. The treaty of Versailles, laid aside at the close of the first session in November, was brought back before the Senate early in February and a final vote on it's ratification was reached on March 19, after all efforts to bring about com- promise had failed.
 As an alternative, both Senate and House later passed a joint resolution formally declaring a state of peace, but it was vetoed by the President. and when republican leaders sought to re- pass it the House failed to register the necessary two-thirds majority.
 Besides this measure and the budget bill, the President vetoed three other measures during the session and an- other was over his veto. They are the legislative, executive and judicial bill. the measure to prohibit interstate ship ment of obscene motion pictures (disap- proved because an expressing clerk made an error in transcribing it), and a bill to pay claims of certain persons in Alabama growing out of flood on the Warrior river.
 Tn addition to the waterpower meas ure, the President gave pocket veto" to the resolution repeating many of the special war time laws and to a num- Der of other minor measures.
 More investigations were conducted at this session than probably ever were undertaken at any session in recent years. The five major war investiga- tions started at the previous session were continued and in addition the Sem ate conducted inquiries into campaign expenditures, the spread of bolshevik propaganda. the railroad strike, the navy's conduct of the war, tho award Of naval medals, the print paper situa- tion; shoe price, Mexican affairs and many others.
 The Senate also authorized investiga- tions of the federal trade commission and the Ford-Newberry election con- test, but these have not yet been started.
