here until the arrival of the Japanese
from whom they purchased the land,

sentative in the Texas Legislature
from Bexar county, said he will intro
duce a bill in the Legislature designed
to exclude japanese from acquiring
farm lands in Texas. The bill will be
modelled on the California law.
The anti-Jnpanese sentiment aroused
by the arrival of the two japanese
farmers who were understood to be the
vanguard of Il large colony, has be-
come so great that u. X. KatO of Cal
ifornia, a japanese, who claims TO be
n laborer, and who rode into Browns
Vile in a Pullman sleeper and wear
ing diamonds, was promptly waited
upon and informed that he must get
out of the city.
Assistance has been offered by cit
liens to the two japanese settlers ct
H%arlingen TO get a refund of the mon
ey they paid on their land.
The two men are Il. Okuma, accom-
panied by his wife and three children,
and his brother, o. Okuma, accompan-
led by his wife. They said they had
knowledge of any feeling in the Rio

FEAR LOSS OF POWER
HARDING WILL BE TOLD OF DIFF.
FACULTIES EUROPE is FACING
ENVOY MAY BE SENT TO U. S. TO
PLEAD FOR LEAGUE OF
NATIONS.
(wes;efn Newspaper Union News scrtice.i

Paris, Jan. 6.-Members of the
council of the League Of Nations have
been talking informally on the advisa-
bility of sending IA special intermedi-
airy or envoy to P~resident-elect Hard
ing Immediately after his Inaugural
ton.
The envoy will present the case of
the League of Nations, and point out
the difficulties which European
tries would experience in abandoning
the league and setting a new form Of
association of nations.
Principal grounds for this conten-
tion are that the covenant is a part of
the peace treaty which gives the
league administration over the Saar
valley, the Danzig region, and a nuIn-
Der of mandates and plebiscites.
The view is held among members of
the French ministry that the solidar-
ity of the treaty would be shaken If
the league part We're abandoned.
This has led TO a growing convic-
tion among the principal allied powers
that the league should be kept going
in some form, but not necessarily as
now constituted, the ACCESSIBILITY Of re-
vision OF the covenant being quite
generally recognized.
1t is considered an understanding
on the future form of the league could
be ore readily reached If a repre-
sentative of the learup council were
able To discuss the subject directly
with Mr.. Harding.
Confidence Is expressed that IL di-
rect discussion eliminated from the
all that is Objectionable to
the United States, the P~resident-elect
would not insist on the abandonment
Of the organization already at work.

War Department WAS buying coal AT
V 81 "A ton through Col. ID. Il.
Wentz, president of the association, on
a commission basis.
The statement concerning the ar
rangement of the bureau of mines was
made by Chairman Calder of New
York when Colonel WentZ was testi-
rying as 10 his services for the War
department during last years short
age The latter said he had purchased
and delivered Ia the department 10000
tons Of coal at slightly above 81 "A ton,
for which he had received commissions
%aggregating S3l 200.
His contract, he added, would have
allowed him to purchase 275,O00 o

Senator Kenyon demanded. "WhO got
it? Isn't it, in your opinion, more than
a fair profit"
Colonel WentZ answered that his re-
s~ponsibility ended in getting the coal
at the market price, but said the prof
il indicated was more than l should
allow AT mines under my control"
Il realize it's not your business, but
II might be the attorney generals"
Senator Kenyon retorted.
Colonel Wentz said there was a real
shortage of coal during 1920, because
of the coal strike and transportation
difficulties.
You know there is the charge that
