QUICK SAYS JAP /
PROBLEM MUST BE-,
SOLVED At ONCE:
0rientaIs Embittered at u. S.
Land Policy, Writer
Declares.
BY HERBERT QUICK

Mr. K. K. Kawamakina is a Japa-
pese writer whose articles 1t behooves
all of us to read when we can, for he
interprets to us very clearly and sane
ly the feelings in Japan toward the
American people and our government
tai policies. I hope he will undertake
as clearly and sanely to interpret the
American mentality to Japan.
A good deal needs to be done on
both sides, unless our nations are to
become increasingly embittered toward
each other; and increasing bitterness
would be perhaps a world misfortune.
Mr.. Kawamakina tells us that the
Japanese are hurt and embittered and
puzzled at the land policy of Califor-
MIA and some other States which
which denies to Japanese the right to
hold lands, and at our agitation
against letting Japanese in as citizens.
He says that the Japanese regard
this as an assertion on our part that
the japanese are our interiors.
Of course, a great many Americans
DO think the Japanese inferior to US.
So most Japanese think Americana
inferior to them. So all peoples, So
far as the masses are concerned, think
all other peoples inferior to them.
Fundamentally, our aversion to
Japanese admixture is based upon a
more or less clear consciousness that
the Japanese are economically
superior to US, and that we cannot
compete with them. AS long as our
society is based on a one-sided conf
petition of men for the use Of the
soil, we cannot as Americans COM
pete with Japanese. When they cone
into any land, we have to move out.
They are too strong for US IN their
competition for land. Our standards
OF living are such that the Japanese
in any community ruin 1t for Ameri,
can occupancy.
Now this was true years ago with
the Germans, for instance. But after
generation or so, the Germans and
the Americans mingled and the
problem solved itself. This is not so
with the Japanese. They do not IN.
termarry with the Americans or the
Americans with them, without too
great a racial shock on both sides.
And this is the real reason why we
must go on and keep the Japanese
out We must do it. or problems will
arise in the future graver than any
which we can face now.
