EXCLUSION ACT

TOKYO, Sept. 2;.-Japan will

immigration law and put Japan up
on a quota basis Katsuji Debuchi,
new japanese Ambassador to the
United States, told tnc United Press
today in an exclusive interview.

japanese diplomats generally do
not like to discuss the exclusion is

exception to the rule. His remarks
during a long interview granted the
United Press correspondent in his
rooms in the Foreign Office here
were limited to the words in quota
tion above. That he would consider
any change in the immigration law
favoring Japan during his tenure in
Washington, however, as a great
victory there can be no doubt.

exclusion clause and substitution of

the quota might be-would be n

as the exclusion cloud, tiny as it
now is, remains on the horizon of
Japanese American relations, there
always is a danger it may grow sud
denly into a dangerous storm which
might endangcr the whole of the
great Pacific area. Ambassador De

the immigration issue as a menace.

Your Problems
Let Edith White Help You to Solve Them

taken the ambition to work out Of
him. 1t seems to me that you should
leave him. You might be able to
get along by yourselves, you and
your son, but you can't support him
too. You must have some good
friends in your town. You have had
a prosperous business there for so
long that there must be a good many
people who are interested in you,
i wish you would go to the business
man in whom you have the most
confidence and tell him your situa-
ton, frankly. Probably everybody
thinks that you have laid by a tidy
sum and are independent. You don't
need to spread your private affairs
around the town, but you do need
to tell the right person or persons.
Possibly you should tell your pastor
also. You will know best whether
he is the kind of man who could give
advice and the right kind of help
in a situation like yours. When God
answers prayer He has to do it
through some person. So the inn
portant thing is TO find tie person.
Haven't you ever in your past life
felt an impulse TO do something for
somebody and you found out later
that that person had been wishing or
praying for just such help? ! think
that such an impulse was a message
to you to give that help. have
known of such things many times.
Perhaps | don't know the circum-
stances well enough to advise about
leaving your husband. But it does
seem to me that a man. who has
never given you any support and
who now is a serious encumbrance,
is a piece of ballast that ought to
be thrown overheard in order to
save the ship. If you had never
married him you would have a home
and money in the bank. SO he is
the one who is really responsible for
your present penniless condition.
You have carried him all this while
as a burden and il has been too
to spend the money you earned.
don't want you TO take my advice on
this point without consulting some
one in your town who knows you
and him and the circumstances.
When you have found the adviser
you need and have talked with him,
write to me again, please, and tell
me what he says. 1t is possible that
there is some woman to whom it
would be better for you to go than
man. Use your best judgment and
find an adviser at the first possible
moment. How about the doctor?
Could he be of any assistance? Per-
haps your husband needs a medical
examination. Perhaps there is some
thing physically wrong with him
that makes him act as he does.
Have you discussed his case with
any physician?
