THE JAPANESE QUESTION AGAIN

The Business Chronicle of Seattle in
its issue Of Saturday, September 25,
devoted a large part of its columns to a
discussion of the japanese question.
The problem was discussed from a one
sided viewpoint, that of the American
business concern engaged in export or
in greeting the business Of foreign i'm
porters. In foreword to articles by
Samuel Hill, Reginald II. Parsons and
others, the publisher of the Business
Chronicle said:
OF more instant Importance than the
fight on radicRlism, the coming cleo
tions, or any current problem Of the
day in American affairs is the grave
situation now suddenly arising out of
the anti-Japanese agitation.
Do thinking and responsible citizens
want to see the Pacific coast torn by a
bitter racial controversy in which emo
tionalism dethrones reason and preju-
dice supplants factsl Will they longer
negatively encourage a propaganda Of
sinister origin that is placing in jeop-
ardy the commercial future of Seattle?
while the United States as a nation be-
comes innocently and unintentionally
embroiled with a friendly country be-
ing Coaded beyond endurance?
Mr.. Hill proclaims as non-construc-
tive agitators those who voice an Cppo-
sition TO japanese settlement Of land in
this country.
Just so long as japanese are permit
ted to corle in contact with the white
citizens Of our Pacific coast states on
an ever increasing scale. just 30 long
will friction be aroused. japanese and
Whites are entirely different when il
comes TO race. A few japanese in q
community never create any disturb
ance, but the moment the japanese be-
come numerous and enter into com
mercial channels, then the friction be-
comes evident. The time has arrived
when the national government sh -uld
and must take a frank stand toward a
settlement Of the japanese question.
The bars against japanese exclusion
must be made as tight as they now are
against Chinese.
1t is not q question of equality or in
equality. Just as Senator Harding said
in q recent address 70 a delegation Of
California citizens, il is a question Of
racial difference. There can never be
an assimilation Of japanese who come
here Their presence IN large ngmbers
will lssd 10 q friction that viii become
more and more embarrassing 10 us and

The city has had 81 cases for infrac-
tion of traffic laws since Mr.. Murray
was employed. Most Of them have
been for minor offenses. The county
has had far smaller number of cases.
Citizens are getting to the point where
they respect traffic laws and wish to
inform themselves on all points, in or
der that they may not violate any rules.
An occasional speeder. however, hits 'er
up on Cascade avenue. Eventually,
however, the traffic officer will get
them.

Life OF Chilean Girls.

The Chilean girls reason for being is
marriage, and one Of her earliest les
sons is that woman's place Is indeed
the home and that man is ordained her
master, the World Outlook says. Old
maids have a particularly horrid time
in Chile and most Of them take the
veil. There is little else for them to
do, for they can't all become school
teachers and no other career Is open
for the young woman who does not
marry. Women journalists, doctors,
lawyers, stenographers and clerks are
practically unknown.
Perhaps this somewhat oriental ideal
Of Chilean womanhood explains why
the tinkling Of the plano rather than
the clicking Of typewriter keys is the
chief mechanical noise one hears at the
Santiago College for Girls, and why the
most important exercise is an exhibit
of fine needlework and hand-painted
china rather than essays on "Why the
Woman Needs the Vote"

The county officials have had much
annoyance in the construction of the
concrete market road in Odell. They
have handled the situation in an admir-
able manner, however, and the orch
ardists of the district, we are sure, ap-
preciate the worries and pains that
have been taken to get the highway
ready for apple hauling.

Politics will have little chance at
Hood River between now and election.
The candidate that appears on an apple
orchard place and starts to electioneer-
ing will likely have picking bucket
offered him. If he makes good on a
ladder the apple grower may conde-
scend TO vote for HIM.

These are the days when the apple
grower puts the reverse English on Ben
Frankiln's advice, early to bed and
early to rise." The orchardist retires
late and rises early. Probably the
course will not make him healthy and
wise, but he must go contrary to Poor
Richard s advice or losessome apples.
