THE Jap OVERFLOW

The Japanese immigration problem results from
a situation in Japan much like that of England and
Italy. There is vigorous, prolific race multiplying
so rapidly to overflow its confines and seek
nomic relief through emigration.
England had great advantage in sending forth
its great emgrant while there vast, fruit
full in the world unoccuped occupied only by
sparse and barbarous population. Italy was great
colonzing country in olden days, but came into the
modern colonial game rather late Japan came latest
of all, when the "great open spaces had nearly all
been seized and tagged by western nations.
The Japs have important colonial possession
except Formosa. That is rich island but for some
reason other the japanese do not to flourish
there. Unfortunately they most attracted to
America, where they come only by "infitration,
and where that process stubborny resisted because
the two races do not mix
The United States has a,perfect right to bar the
Japanese, proportionatey or absolutely 1t is unfor
tunate however for both countries that there is not
way whereby the japanese overflow of popula-
ton could be taken of without turning this way
The natural habitat of the Japanese is Asia, and
there not only great commercial opportunities in
that continent but great inviting pioneer deve
opment That is especially true of Siberia 1t would
be fine thing in many ways if the Japanese
could expend its energies and numbers that great,
undeveloped country have expended ours, in
this last century, western America.

ABOUT THAT ARIZONA INCIDENT

The recent action of the county supervisors IN
commencing Sheriff Glett and District Attorney Ut
ley for their stand regard to the Yuma controversy
is highly laudable.
There only right thing to be done under
the circunstances-and these two officials did it. The
first and most pressing need to get relief for these
hundreds of stranded and suffering travellers even
drastic action the only way out. The most amaz-
ing thing about the whole affair the selfcontro
manifested by the Imperial County officials in the face
of threats and insults from Arizona authorities. The
ending might have been far different if those in charge
had exercised less poise.
One thing is certain: These two men not the
vaclatng type that fear to take stand and stick to
it. The occasion called for prompt effective leader
ship, and the Imperial County men did not fall short
of the mark.
1t is to be hoped that Arizona will force no further
of similar unpleasant situations for are
close each other to harbor hatred i'll feelings
We feel sure when Arizonas temper has cooled
down and she has resumed normal reasoning ability,
she cannot help but that Imperial County en-
tireIy within her rights and that had the situation been
reversed Arizona would have done exactly what our
men did under the circumstances.
Anyway, we're strong for fearless men like these
in office who when emergency arises, go out and
meet it face to face without batting an eye.

FORTY FOR FOUR DOLLARS

A tale is told of farm home in which 40 improve
ments affected in the kitchen at total cost of
S4 That kitchen first prize in kitchen improve
ment contest in Wyoming which directed by
tension agents OF the Department of Agriculture Inn
provements in other homes in other parts of the state
ranged from this low cost of $4 up to $40 and possibly
little more.
Many of the improvements such simple
things arrangement of utensils in orderly and
convenient ways. Others were the making installing
of celess refrgerators, kitchen cabinets and stools
washing machines reess cookers cisterns floors
and so on. In home cstern which had been par
tally dug for 10 years was completed result of
the contest and the housekeeper thereby saved
200 yard walk to the irrigation ditch for water.
The outstanding fact about most of the improved
kitchens the low cost involved in making them
attractive, convenient and efficient. The item
that had to be spent for these improvements was
thought. There are probably few homes or Office
IN the whole country in which the same thing would
not be true Thought and ingenuity together with ap
plication of both to the daily routine would give
great many persons of the leisure they crave but
fail to get.
