A JAPANESE QUOTA

The immigration question is both
important and urgent, as the present
law expires July 1. The Johnson
bill has been approved by the House
committee. II does not provide for
any quota from Japan. Secretary of
State Hughes declares that this pol
icy OF exclusion is inconsistent with
the treaty of 19l1 and If insisted
upon would largely undo the work
OF the conference for limitation of
armament
Without saying that the secretary
is absolutely right the weight of his
opinion as the head OF the State
Department should give pause and
cause a thorough consideration of the
matter. The present provision would
exclude aliens who are ineligible to
citizenship. The japanese are IN
eligible. II they were permitted to
come under the quota Of . per cent.
of the census Of 1890 1t is estimated
that less than $50 per year would
be admitted and the japanese gov
ernment would cooperate with ours
in restricting those who come I'M
lawfully.

tive at being classed among in
