JAPAN'S INFLUX. SEEN RISING IN. LATIN AMERICA
Expert Says Population Trend May Mean
 Naturalization

San Francisco, Nov. 19 - (UP) - Japan has laid the foundation for an enormous Japanese popula- ton in South America, according to 0. M. Goethe, twice president of the Eugenics Research ASsocia- ton and world authority on popu- lation movements.
 Goethe, who has just returned from a population survey of the South American countries, de- clared that Japan already has a population reproducing unit far more numerous than that upon which the United States 125,000,- 900 inhabitants was based.
 'Japan's dominant caste dreams of three great centers of Japanese population outside of her own ter ritory," Goethe said. "The first If these is China, the second great CT Hindustan, including the Dutch East Indies, and finally Latin America. In this third area, great CT progress has been made and is still being made than the world at large realizes.
 Names Brazil and Peru
 "The two countries there where Japan has already obtained strong footholds for her Japanese coloni- zation projects are Brazil and Peru.
 "The original nucleus of the Japanese colonization in Brazil was by invitation. The lattter's la Dor supply is largely negroid, evolved in the tropics, but while adapted to climatic conditions there, is not dependable.
 "In the state of Sac Paolo where the great plantations are located this class of labor could not be counted on to insure the coffee output.
 "The great German coffee grow CTS there felt that Japanese labor would constitute the best solution of their problem. Accordingly, Jap anese labor was imported. The men brought women with them and have begun the Orientaliza- tion of Brazil.
 Immigration Bars Avoided
 Despite the immigration restric- tions that have been enacted in several Latin American countries, Goethe declared there is still 0 steady stream of Japanese flowing into the continent. N
 "The Japanese" he said, have concentrated their immigrants in the Brazilian state of Sac Paolo, which permits them to utilize Peru as a back highway and entry into Brazil. Already Peru has Japa- nese problem of its own.
 "Young Japanese arrive there on almost every ship. They bring with them their women and their motto is a baby every year. It is thS same slogan of uncontrolled population increase that one finds in Italy with the sole difference that there one son every second year is preferred.
 "The bulk of these Japanese landing in Peru eventually make their way across the continent into Brazil '
 Enter Trades in Peru
 EAAASoAy VAAS ANARPSAASoS CAV St'h ing over small trades in Peru as did the 50000 Chinese coolies that were admitted to Cuba's sugar es- tates during the World War.
 "These incoming Japanese move across the Andes and down into the Amazon basin, leaving behind them a veritalbe army of Japanese small tradeSmen.
 Peru feels that 1t is impotent to block this Japanese penetration both on account of geographical situation and for internal ethno- logical reasons"
 Goethe declared that for the same reason that the United States became Saxon as the result of the early immigrants bringing ;heir wives with them, South America is facing the possibility of becoming Orientalized through the Infiltration of Japanese immi- grants bringing women with them.
