COURT BACKS
STATEC0URT.
Jaanese Not White by U. S.
Laws and Cannot Get /,
Citizenship
OVERRULE TEST CASE
Decision Long Awaited on
Pacific Coast; State
Laws to Hold
United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Japanese
are not white, within the meaning of
the American law and are not entitled
to citizenship in the United States, the
supreme court held today.
High court confirmed a decision of
the California circuit court of appeals
in n test ease brought by Satoki Ozawa
of Honolulu. who claimed he was
''white' and was eligible for natural
ization as IN American citizen.
At the same time the court upheld
the Washington supreme court in deny
ing citizenship to Takuii Yamashita
and Charles Ilio Kono of Seattle.
The decision held that the two Jap
anese were not entitled to naturaliza-
ton under the United States laws and
therefore could not enter a business
partnership.
The supreme court s decision in these
eases has long been awaited. particu-
larlv on the Pacific coaSt, where anti
japanese feeling exists.
Ozawa eontended he was entitled to
American citizenship. as n descendant
of the white tribe of Aisu. He started
his fight for citizenship several years
ago in Hawaii, but was defeated in
Tie courts there and also in higher
courts in California Ozawa has lived
in Hawaii since his childhood and was
educated in the American schools
there. His children, now attending
American schools, are being brought up
IA American ietizens.
Yamashita presented an argument
similar to that of Ozawa. He appealed
TO the supreme court when the court
of Washington denied him the privi-
lege Of incorporating a real estate com
pany because Of ineligibility to citizen
ship.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-Decis-
ion by the supreme court that japanese
cannot become American citizens will
have far-reaehing effect in interpreta-
tion Of laws in California covering the
Japanese question, it was believed.
The California anti-alien land law,
aimed at japanese land ownership, in
10 place mentions japanese specifical-
ly but provides that aliens not eligible
10 citizenship cannot own land A sim
liar law involving land ownership
through corporations and leasing of
iuHu Is diSo WoIutu III iHf oahi' i''"
ner.
1t was general belief that today's
decision will add much towards making
these laws effective.
Former Senator James ID. Phelan, an
ti-Japanesc leader in California de-
clared that the decision would have
effect of cancelling citizenship granted
many japanese, particularly in Hawaii,
under the act of congress which pro-
vides that service in the American
army automatically granted citizen
ship.
1.-THE enlistment law was never
meant to repeal the naturalization law
and, it has been misinterpreted, -
phelan said.
"The decision will greatly strength
en- the California anti-alien land law
U. 8. Webb, attorney general of Cali
fornia declared.
"The legislation Of California reads
alien and Japanese All such legis.
lation in California has been based
that the Japanese are not eligible to
citizenship.
"If the court had failedfto uphold
this, all the state legislation would
have been for naught.''

SAYS FARMER is LOSING
PATIENCE ABOUT CONDITIONS

In an address before the New York
Academy of Political Science Friday,
Secretary Wallace of the Agricultural
Department declared that unless
there is quick reduction in railroad
freight rates to about prewar level or
the price of agricultural products in
creases sufficiently to equal the rate
advance there will be profound re-
adjustment in agricultural produc-
ton, involving readjustment in indus
try as well.
The "blighting effect" upon agricul-
ture of the present level of freight
rates he said can hardly be compre-
hended.
The following is summary Of
what he regarded as the probable ef-
fects if present rates continued for
any length of time.
FIRST-To favor the farmers of
South America and Australia at the
expense of our own farmers.
Substantial decrease in ocean
rates emphasized the disadvantage of
the American farmer, he pointed out.
SECOND-To keep prices on farm
producing states at figures lower than
are justified by the investment in
land and equipment and cost Of pro-
duction.
THIRD-Prolong the period Of dis
satisfaction among farmers and en-
courage advocates of economic fall
lacies of all sorts.
FOURTH-Improve the position of
eastern truck and fruit growers but
add considerably to the cost Of milk
and dairy products because the ad-
caned prices of hay and coarse grains
necessarily shipped fro the West.
FIFTH-Gradually shift industrial
enterprises westward, nearer the sur.
plus food producing territory.
SIXTH-Promote excellent rather
than national spirit and make more
and more difficult national spirit
and make more and more difficult
to International affairs.
Special freight rates impose a tax
on the farmer Of the surplus pro-
ducing states, Mr.. Wallace said.
