Washington
Silent Upon
Jap Question
Official, Decline to
Discuss Negotiations
Dealing With Calfor-
MIA Problem

Washington Sept. 27-Adminis-
tration officials continue to decline,
tos,diseuss for publication any Of
the phases OF the negotiations. with
Japan growing out of the proposed
anti Japanese land law In Califor-
mia, but the impression has gone
out that a proposal from Toxic that
the question be referred to a Joint
commission for solution would be
unacceptable.
The conversations regarding the
California law which have been go
ing on between Ambassador Shide-
hara OF Japan and state department
officials are continuing and so far
as has been learned the proposals
for a joint commission has not been
formally communicated to Wash
ington. by, the Japanese govern
ment.
Progress Unknown.
What progress. IL any. has been
made in the negotiations has not
been disclosed. The attitude Of the
tsate department is described as
one calculated to prevent the de-
velopment OF a feeling Of alarm in
the United States that might APP
proach even approximately that
which appears to be growing in
Japan.
Conflicting opinions of both
American and Japanese authorities
lon International law are said to
have made the task of the state de-
partment officials and the Japanese
ambassador more difficult. Propo-
nents of the California law say that
California in enacting measure
barring the Japanese in this coun-
Try from owning land in that state
kwould be refusing to the. japanese
10 rights or privileges which are
| not refused by Japanese law to
Americans in Japan,
Japan contends that the Califor-
mia law. which is to be voted on VI
November is discriminatory be-
cause it does not apply to all for
eigners alike as does the Japanese
| law.
