JAPAN PROTESTS
ON EXCLUSION
Foreign Office Issues State
ment RsgretIns Action
HANIHARA WILL LEAVE
Washington silent On Reports OF
HANIHARA WILL LEAVE


Tokio.-Deep regret that the
United States has enacted the i'm
migration bill including a clause
barring Japanese is voiced in an
official statement issued late by
the Foreign Office.
The Japanese Government remains
mistaken in their opposition to this
discriminatory legislation against Jap
anese, and they have instructed the
Japanese Ambassador at Washington
to lodge a solemn protest with the
United States Government on this oc-
easion." concludes the communique.
The document describes the immi-
grafton bill and its effects upon Jap
anese entering the United States, and
adds:
Since the Introduction Of the John
son immigration BILL. the base Of the
present act. into the House (the Amer
lean House OF Representatives, last
December. the Japanese Government
have frequently and earnestly called
the attention Of the United States
Government to the Japanese exclu-
sion provision. The Japanese Govern
ment, therefore. deeply regret that
this provision had been enacted in
spite of their representations and Wig
orous and repeated efforts made by
the President and Secretary Of State
Of the United States to prevent the
inclusion of the discriminatory pro-
vision in question"
The statement was issued late in
the day, after an extraordinary Cab
met session had approved the form of
protest Foreign Minister Matsui
had asked and obtained the sanction
OF the Prince Regent to the forward
ing of the document The latter step
is extraordinary and was interpreted
as indicating the importance with
which the matter is regarded here.
The protest was cabled to Ambas.
sador Hanihara at Washington before
the Foreign ONCE issued its state
ment. Afterward the Foreign Min
lister appealed to the Japanese press
to exercise moderation and restraint
In handling the exclusion matter.
The Foreign ONCE two days ago
cabled Ambassador Hanihara permis-
sion to return to Japan as soon as
Japan's protest against the exclusion
provision of the immigration bill was
finally dealt with.
This permission followed Hani-
hara's repeated requests for leave. 1t
is understood that the Ambassador is
likely to leave Washington within a
fortnight. Oflcially he is merely TAX
ing a vacation. but Foreign ONCE offl-
cials admit that there is no chance
of his return to Washington. 1t would
not be proper, they explain, to speak
Of resignation since he is expected
to remain in the foreign service. He
is merely seeking change Of post.
A bitter editorial outburst marks
the final enactment Of the American
immigration bill A majority OF the
newspapers express disappointment
with the action of President Coolidge
and call his statement following his
signing of the bill unconvincing and
unsatisfactory.

West Virginia Need
Clothing and Food

WARREN, Ohio, March 27.-The
city central committee of the Work
ers Party had a letter from the
United Mine Workers of West Vir-
ginia appealing for shoes, clothing
and canned goods. They have been
on strike there for some time, so
that help would be weIcome there
as soon as possible.
l hope every one answers this
appeal, and gives what they can,
when you all know what it means
to them. The different branches of
the Workers Party here will try
and do their best in this case, and
/ hope everyone w1ll try and help
them to succeed in their efforts.
Most of you know what it means
to stand in a strike and fight for
your rights, altho great poverty
threatens you. And what it means
to receive help when all hope is al
most gone. This little help will
give these comrades more fighting

JOHN |. LEWIS
0. KS ANDERSON,
INJUNCTION JUDGE
Tells Coolidge Author
OF 1919 Writ Suits Him

WASHINGTON, D. c., Mar. 27.-
The fact that John L, Lewis, inter
national president of the United
Mine Workers, has sold out body and
soul to capitalist politicians was
shown today when he told President
Coolidge that he would make no OBJ
lection to the appointment of Judge
A. B. Anderson, of Indianapolis, to
succeed Judge Francis E. Baker as
judge of the United States Circuit
Court.
Judge Anderson was the author Of
one Of the most vicious injunctions in
the history of American labor. His
injunction. ISSUED in the fall of 1919
against the United Mine Workers
Union, restrained the international
union and its branches from using
their funds to aid the great coal
strike that was then going on and
from abetting the struggle in any
way.
Cannot Fight Government"
Local miners unions ignored the
infamous writ and continued their
fight until the operators were finally
forced to yield them an average in
crease of ~ per cent over their for
mer wages. John L. Lewis and his
international officials, however, ac-
cepted the injunction and laid down
to the courts and the employers.
"We cannot fight the govern
ment," announced Lewis. Even Sam
uel Gompers afterwards expressed
an1azement at Lewis cowardice in
this crisis.
Seeks Vice Presidency.
Lewis surrender TO the Coolidge
politicians as regards the appoint
ment of this labor hating Judge is
interpreted as part of his plan to
capture the e-presidential nomi-
nation, as running mate with Cool
idge in the fall elections.

HIRAM NOSES
CALVIN OUT IN
S. PRIMARIES
Teapot Cabinet Head
Claims Victory.
Especial to Tn. Daily worker,

SIOUX FALLS, Mar. 27.-Hiram
johnson is forging ahead of Cool
idge in the primary contest for the
republican state delegation to the
national convention in Cleveland.
The last returns from 1859 out of
the 1925 state precincts show John
son to be leading Coolidge by the
narrow margin of 298 votes; 36,5S5
for the Californian senator against
36,2S7 for the president.
Hostile to Coolidge.
The johnson supporters are claim
ing the victory because their white
hope has come from behind and
nosed out Coolidge. The returns
now coming in are distinctly hostile
to Coolidge. These precincts cover
the furthest rural counties Of the
states where the farmers are dis
gusted with the government and
seeking to give vent to their dis
satisfaction in every way possible.
Already the Coolidge supporters
are preparing excuses to explain
away the impending likely defeat.
Bascom Slemp. the presidents po-
htical wire puller, now his private
secretary, and other active Coolidge
workers have already announced
that the South Dakota results will
not matter either way as the Cool
idge nomination at the republican
convention is only a matter of for
mality. They are ooasting Of the
fact that the reactionary clique
dominating the republican party has
to date succeeded in lining up for
the Teapot principal" the chief ex-
ecutive Of the country, more than
enough delegates to secure his NOM
nation on the first ballot.
Restoring Johnson's Shine.
The Johnson supporters are jubi-
liant over the chances of success
they have here. They are especial
~ anxious TO restore the losses suf-
fered by Johnson in North Dakota.
The defeat in North Dakota has done
irreparable harm 10 the johnson
boom. These managers Of the fake
progressive from California are
looking forward anxiously TO a VIC
tory in South Dakota to restore
some Of the shine on the boom Of
their candidate.
Observers here feel convinced that
no matter who wins the republican
nomination, it will not be much Of a
victory for either. The great mass
Of farmers and workers are utterly
dissatisfied and thru with the repub-
lican party.
