Coast was so great that California
attempted to apply restrictions in
its state constitution.
The situation was met by the
Oriental Exclusion Act, which has
lately - under left-wing pressure
been modified to make China

Then japanese immigration be-
came cause of alarm.
State laws were enacted against
japanese land ownership and finally
immigration was checked by an in
ternational agreement.
NONETHELESS, when we were
~ attacked at Pearl Harbor the
Japanese menace on the Pacific
Coast Immediately became cause
of much anxiety,
Tens of thousands of "disloyal"
Japanese were rounded up by the
army and transported to detention
camps.
What is the United States going
to do with them when the Pacific
war ends?
Should MORE japanese be al
lowed to move here?
Nothing could be more dangerous
to our national interests economic
and military both-than any radical
agitation now to take the Oriental
Exclusion Act off the statute books,
or to open wide the gates to all of
Europe.
Nations can be, and have been,
conquered by migration more
fatally than by invading armed
forces.

Signs Of Danger

FROM the radical American Civil
= Liberties Union has come an an
nouncement that "bill is being
drafted" to repeal the Oriental Ex-
clusion Act.
The announcement also said that
efforts will be made" to introduce
the bill at the present session of Con-
gress to be acted upon with
OTHER postwar immigration legis-
lation now under consideration in
the House immigration committee. )"
The information warns that some
thing is going on in Washington to
which the American people gener-
ally, and the patriotic organizations
especially, should give attention be-
fore it becomes too late.
WITH the public engrossed in the
w many problems of war in the
Pacific, of an armed peace in Europe
and of reconversion at h me, it
might be very easy for an alert
minority to alter the immigration
laws In such fashion as to do in
calculable harm to the nation.
The great Asiatic countries, with
their hundreds of millions of popu-
lation, could quickly overrun any
Occidental nation if given the chance
and all of them look longingly TO-
ward America.
But this country has had bitter
historic experience with Asiatic i'm
migration.

noted in his book, "The American
Commonwealth" = the threat of

Memorial Day

THE American Memorial Day OBJ
- servance, originally an occasion
for the decoration of the graves of
soldiers killed in the armed conflict
between the states. has developed a
broader purpose in the course of the
years and is now observed as a gen
eral day of remembrance.
This is a beautiful custom, al.
ways characterized by the reUerent
participation of the American people
and ollDnys the source OF great solace
and comfort to those Uho haze suf-
fered bereavement, either recently
or in receding time to tDhich only
memory remains ds bond.
THERE ARE WON RoUS
POWERS IN REMEMBRANCE,
even miraculous powers.
They are not always sensed i'm
mediately, while the pain of separa-
tion is sharp and only the place made
vacant seems real.
But after a while the healing
power of memory begins its lovely
service.
There comes stealing back into
the anguished mind recollection of
pleasant incidents and of happy asso-
Citations, which brings release from
the feeling of finality in death s grim
intrusion.
Somehow there is special grace
in the manner of this release.
1t makes only those things live
again in memory which are good to
remember, which bridge the years
back to a long cherished happiness,
bringing comfort and peace.
It is a tender and intimate ex-
perience.
1t is gentle and kind.

SURELY REMEMBRANCE
HAS PRECIOUS POWERS.


Strains of a forgotten melody come
softly back.
Words spoken with affection are
heard again.
Pleasures long ago experienced
with the one who is gone are brought
out of the past, as picture coming
into focus.
Beautiful days, happy years, lives
spent together with understanding
and appreciation, successes shared
with pride and satisfaction, failures
shared with patience and courage,
virtues honored and faults forgiven
these are the good things which
come alive again under the marvellous
spell of remembrance.
PEST of all, it is life itself that is

They are not dead who live in Hues
they ieaUe behind
I'm those .ohom they haue blessed

Not the flowers we place upon the
graves IN which our loved ones rest,
not the tears we shed for them, not
the poignant sadness of bereavement
or the dull pain of separation-but
the power and grace of the miracle
OF remembrance reflect the spirit of
Memorial Day.
Surely Memorial Day is a beauti-
5ful day, and the observance of it is
A LOVELY CUSTOM.
