A few weeks ago l was invited 10
dine with a couple OF old school
mates who had been married for
some time. I was asked 90 bring n
friend who had also attended school
with us.
The dinner looked appetlzlng. and
was progressing smoothly with all
OF us In good spirita.
Suddenly Jack, my married
friend. turned to his wife and said:
Vera, what's tho matter with these
biscuits?
She made some sort OF reply,
whoreupon he answered they were
not fit to eat, that his mother could
do better baking, and asked who
baked them.
Vera, with an injured expression.
answered: why, Jack, dear, your
mother cent them over this eve

Both. I know, wished the dinner

Help Californians,
Advice of Japanese
To Kinsmen There


WASHINGTON. d. C.-It the
Japanese in California ignore their
duty toward the state and strive only
70 make money they cannot blame
the Californians for anti-Japanese
propaganda.
This is the dictum of Viscount
shibusawa, aged Japanese states
man, expressed in Toxic upon his re-
turn from an extended trip In Amer
lea, during which he made a special
study Of conditions in California.
Diplomatic reports from the Jap
hnese capital of the views of the in
fluential Japanese leader were read
with particular interest I'm view of
rumors that Baron Shidchara, the
Japanese ambassador, Is soon TO
bring up the question of Japanese
immigration and land holding by
japanese in California.
Many Of the problems arising be-
tween the United States and Japan
as result of Japanese settlements
N California cannot be solved by
mere treaties, NisCount Shihusawa
sad, though he is enthusiastic over
the results Of the Washington con-
Terence and believes that the naval
treaty and the four-power pact have
zone away with all possibility of war
between the two nations.
Sacrifice Worth While"
Although Japan may have had
70 pay high price to gain a more
Tlendly feeling from the United
gates,' he said. 'still any such sac
Mlce was worth while, because
genuine good will was obtained by
sSapans agreement to the naval ra-
no and the four-power pact. / am
pleaSed that the leading powers
zane 10 an agreement, even though
sumo naval experts are disgruntled
because OF Me naval ratio.
Reverting to the question OF
Japanese in California, Viscount shi-
ousaWa declared that his observa-
Oon In tho paclfic cnnst state had

convinced him that Callfornlans and
Japanese must unite TO solve the
questions which confront them.
II have advised japanese I'm Cali
fornia not 10 become impatient be-
cause of the alien land law " he said.
"On the other hand, they should
work to serve the public of Califor-
mia and to benefit that state by their
work and their law abiding attitude.
II they persist I'm that action anti
Japanese agitators Will be unable to
give reasons why they are anti
Japanese in their viewpoint, because
the Japanese in California will he
doing such service for the state
that it cannot afford to be without
them. But IL Japanese in California
try only TO make money and ignore
their duty TO the state, then they
should not blame Calitornians for
anti-Japanese propaganda. They Will
have no one to blame but them
selves"
Viscount Shibusawa said that
when he expressed this view TO Cali
fornians they agreed with him per-
fectly.
"They said" he added, chat II the
japanese in California would take
that attitude there would nc no anti
Japanese movement in California"
Californians made It plain. how
ever, the viscount said, that they
didn't want more Japanese immigra.
tion into California, because they be-
lieved the japanese trouble would
increase i'm proportion with the in
creased immigration
Although that is right" the vls-
count said, II am not afraid that the
numbers of japanese in California
will increase, as Japan IS observing
strictly the 'gentleman's agreement
by which Japan refuses to grant per-
mission for Japanese TO leave Japan
for California"
