CALIFORNIA AND JAPAN.
A PLEA FOR UNDERSTANDING. Received Jan. 12, 12.10 a.m. NEW YORK, Jan. 10. The Californian Legislature adopted unanimously a resolution i asking that no treaty be made with ! Japan granting citizenship to Japan- : ese, or nullifjing the provisions of I the anti-Japanese law. 1 Speaking at Cambridge, Massa- | chussetts, Mr. Lament, head of the American banking group of the ChiI nese Consortium, said that even the I perplexing’ Japanese immigration question was susceptible of amicable ' settlement if Americans showed a : little tact and respect for Japanese i susceptibilities. It would seem ! certain, with any ingenuity at all, | that they should be able to devise a ! formula meeting the views of California and a measure satisfying Japan because the military party was powerful, whereas the people were as peace-loving as the Americans.
