The departments statement fol
lows:
The movement in California to re-
cast the statutory laws affecting alien
land tenure has been receiving since
its inception the close and interest
ed attention of the department OF
state.
THE relations of certain treaty pro-
visions to the proposed measure IS
being discussed clearly and ably in
California and will doubtless prove an
element in the states decision as to
the adoption or rejection OF the pro-
posed measure. In the meantime, the
department has had numerous discus
sions of the most friendly and candid
nature with the ambassador OF ia
nan and it is believed he thoroughly
realizes, as we have sought to make
clear. that no outcome OF the Callfor
MIA movement will be acceptable TO
the country at large that does not ac-
cord with existing and applicable pro-
visions of law and, what is equally
important, with the national instinct
