Church of Christ's Commits

and Chinese immigration.

mission on relations with the orient
in its report to the federal council
of the Churches of Christ in America
now in quadrennial session here
After outlining. developments in the
orient Since the outbreak of the
world war and discussing the ques-
ton of immigration of Japanese and
Chinese to this country, the report
says:
For fifty years the problem of how
to deal with Asiatics in America has
been constantly with US. 1t has been
used for personal and party interests.

proposed more dangerous than any

threatening injustice toJapanese, en-
brolling our relations with Japan
and, if enacted, creating among us
an eVer-groWing group of Asiatics
who must perforce be loyal to their
foreign Asiatic governments. instead
of to the land in which they are
born. Until the Asaitic question is
settled on Christian principles it will
grow increasingly difficult and dam
gerous.
. question for Nation to Solve.
''The Asiatic question is one for ma
tional solution. Local Legislation in
California will be futile. 1t will but
aggravate the problem. The gentle
mans agreement has served it's day
and should be superseded by laws de-
termined by Congress and adminis-
tered by American officials.
"The regulation of immigration
from every country should be handled
on the same general principles. This
alone will avoid humiliating race dis
elimination. The amount of immigra-
ton which America can wisely admit
from any given people should not ex-
ceed the number of that people that
we can assimilate. Americanize and
steadily employ. This amount should
be continuously adjusted, in view of
carefully asceftained facts to the
changing economic conditions of the
country.
Would Raise Standards.
''The standards for naturalization
should be raised: the r::S1lege of cit
izenship should then be open to every
one lawfully in America who duly
qualities. All special laws dealing
with the Chinese should be repealed.
Chinese in America should be under
the same laws that are applied to
others and should receive, as our trea-
ties promise, most favored nation
