The information thus far given out by this group of Americans, or the representative who presumably speaks for them, savors strongly of Japanese propaganda. For that reason it should be examined with more than ordinary care. Yet data gathered by an American party under the guid- ance of such a man as Mr. Vanderbilt should prove of great value to the ua- tional authorities question, postponed. We are all too ignorant of a situa- tion which up to this time has been considered merely local to California It is asked by Japan that we consider it a national question. There scen's to be little hope for the Japanese if the matter is left in the hands of California alone. Hence their ap- peal. But despite the fact that it would be granting something to them te take the whole of the problem out of the haads ot the state of Calitornia, it is believed that it must be done.
