JAPS IN CALIFORNIA

From time to time California reminds
US that there is Japanese question
which has to be solved sooner or later.
The government al Washington gcner-
ally tries to call the movement of in
order TO prevent the Californians in
their excitement from passing laws
which may give oIense in Toxic. Then
comes period Of comparative quiet
which Is followed BY new outbreak
Of anti-Japanese sentiment.
In his recent appeal 10 the state de-
partment Governor Stephens refers TO
the increase in the Japanese popula-
ton in his state. Their number has
doubled In the last ten years and now
amounts TO 10000. This docs not seem
TO be much. but the Californians are
running against these ninety thou
sands everywhere, they meet them at
every opportunity for business and see
in them unfair competitors against
whom an American has no chance.
II may be that the Calitornians ex-
aggarale the danger. But it cannot be
denied that the possibility OF such dan
ger exists and that il would be wise 10
thwart it at the outset. We know only
too well what race conflicts are. We
have enough.

HUGHES CRITICISM

In an address 70 the Harvard law
school Charles E. Hughes. with refresh
ing candour. prefers charges against
our government which. If made by
radical would have received little at
tention. He shows that our Legislation
bears the marks OF immaturity; admin
istration IS drifting away from the lines
laid down by the constitution. In the
ability TO govern ourselves We have not
met expcc tationS. and our mania for a
multiplicity of laws is. according to Jus
ticc Hughes, not a sign Of democratic
progress.
In our anxiety 10 ind quick and
temporary solution OF pending questions
we have given autocratic powers TO the
administration. We entered the war
for freedom and democracy, and the
result is that We have nurtured the ap-
petite for autocracy. The extraordinary
powers. necessary during the war, are
still being exercised after the military
necessity for them has disappeared.
Tho greatest obstacle to a reGenera-
ton Of liberty and return to constitu-
tional methods is the authority and
arbitrary egotiSm OF the present occu-
pant OF the White House. The voice
OF Mr.. Hughes is not the only one in
dicating the cxigencies OF the nation.
but in view OF the universal high esteem
which he enjoys, ons OF the most in
duential ones

ENG1.AND,s POWER

Considerable pride was evident IN
the recent expression by Lloyd George
in response 10 the query as TO whether
England intended to obtain canceI'a-
lion Of the war debt 10 the In'tso
states. His reply was that England
does not repudiate debts and Is prcpar-
ing 70 nay what she owes 10 the United
States.
There is no bluG about'thts statement.
It IS in keeping with the traditions ana
policies OF Great Britain that puoiic
debts must be paid promptly at what
ever inconvenience and sacr1hce. NO
English official could speak otherwise
and maintain the confidence OF the ma
tton. for this rcsolute good faith Is
national instinct that has elevated Eng
land to her high pinnacle OF power ana
particularly established her supremacy
in Foreign commerce.
There IS no better illustration OF tho
truth embodied in the homcly adase
that honesty - the best policy. than
the immense power attained by England
through her fne feeling Of honor IN all
matters pertaining to public obligations
EnSland's determination 10 MAINTAIN
her credit by n series Of new taxes that
no other government dare demand
and the unanimlty OF parliament IN IT'S
effort 10 provide the money for main
tanning obligations is in harmony with
past traditions OF that country in all
matters financial.
