Y the letter published in The Call Saturday from Senator Perkins to Secretary Rosenberg of the Labor Council of this city ample evidence is accorded to justify the warning given by The Call some time ago of the dangerous increase of Japanese immigration. The Senator’s letter quotes largely from official reports and shows that companies in Japan are organized to promote the migration of la- borers to the United States, and that most of those who come are of the ignorant class and are virtually contract laborers. It is _stated that since the Japanese Government re- quires that a subject applying for a passport shall provide two sureties that the applicant will not be- come a public charge or fall into distress within three years, there have been organized in Japan something like twelve emigration companies, each of which un- | dertakes to furnish the sureties for emigrants sent out | under its charge. The companies have agents in various parts of Japan to obtain emigrants, and good | reasons exist for believing they have agents in this country to place the laborers aiter they arrive. It is true that when Mr. Rice, an ex-Commissioner of Im- migration at Vancouver, B. C., was in Japan investi- | gating the subject he was informed by one of the com- panies that it had no emigration agents in the United States or Canada, but the statement was evi- dently incorrect, for Mr. Rice found in the Official Gazette, published by the Japanese Government, a | notice that permission had been given by the im- perial Government to a certain Masataro Mito to act as agent for that very company at Victoria. Concerning the difficulty of preventing the emigra- tion of Japanese to this country through the aid of the companies, Senator Perkins points out that the | courts have so interpreted the alien contract labor law | as to require that evidence of a contract having been { made abroad must be produced in court in order to I bar an immigrant suspected of being a contract la- | borer. He adds: “Under existing law and decisions based upon it it is difficult to reject those coming in violation of the alien contract labor law, and as the Japanese occupy the same position in the eye of the law as citizens and subjects of the most favored na- tion they cannot be rejected unless it is shown upon special inquiry that they belong to one or the other of the excluded classes.” The remedy for the evil is that which The Call pointed out at the time it first gave warning of the danger. Our treaties with Japan must be so modified as to admit of a Japanese exclusion act similar to that by which Chinese are excluded. Senator Perkins in- dorses that view of the case and says: “I am informed and I believe reliably so that the Japanese Govern- ment is opposed to the emigration of its subjects. [f such is the case, it possible that the Government !

In all climes, in all coun- tries, and on all stages, there have been exploited more or less decency or indecency—it depends altogether on the point of view—and so the only real, vital question is, does the playwright take a view of morality that is in accord with L}:z view held by his audience, or doesn’t Now right here is where the critic of the drama sieps in. The critic has his rules, his tenets of dramatic criticlsm, and these he follows. Of course there is one mode of criticism for a farce, one for a burlesque, one for comic opera, another for serious drama. He knows, for in- stance, that in a four-act play the great, the tremendous climax must come at the end of the third act, else the method of construction Is all wrong. He knows that every character must have a reason for entrance and a reason for exit. He must know what is logical and what is not. He must know of the unity of time, the unity of place, the esthetic side and the moral side of the drama. And it is this last point on which the critic has most to bother him nowadays. Let us take this point up first. We are told through the public prints that this, that and the other play is nasty In its theme and in its treatment and that it is not it to be seen by the average thea- ter-goer, much less by the Young Person, Then immediately comes the wee, small voice of the actor or actress who is ap- pearing in the play and says to the carp- ng critic and the legion of his readers “‘Go to. Can’t you see the moral under- lying ail this? Do you think that I care to play this, that or the other character because the taint of the moral is over it ali? 1 do this for my art. I do it to edu- cate the public. I do it for the good of morals and to show the community that underneath all this filth and all this in- decency there is a great, tremendous moral lesson to be learned.” Now, the critic is an analytic soul, and By Nat C. Goodwin. sometimes he sees the moral and some- times he doesn’t. And that is why critics disagree quite as much as doctors. Their rules of criticism are oftentimes affected by the disease known as ‘‘a rush of de- cency of the heart,” and they go off into diatribes _that besmirch the actor or actress, do dramatic_criticism not the least bit of good and help swell the re- ce% of the box office. ich brings us to another point of Is the playwright wrong in build- ing & ‘nasty” play? Is the public wrong | in coming to see that play? And if both are wrong or both right, what are we go- In{ to do about it? f the little Irish woman who keeps a frujt stand at the corner of the street finds that the small boys of the neighbor- hood like apples better than pears she usually gets double the stock of apples and cuts down on the other fruit. ot course she could go about it in the other way and lay in twice as many pears as ugnlu and when the fruit rotted because s e couldn’t sell it and she couldn’t pay her rent use ahe dmn'l!t n“l;»dn" le would say, “It's nobody’s Toult bt her's. Why didn't” she keep what ple wanted?” Now??our playwright is the old apple It he has some nice, clean pears and he finds tart apple selis twice e as fast he is in for lgpl!l. He's only giving th uple what they want. good, dear peo- ow, let's come to mw ple. ey want the 'z¥:ty thi T a considerable portion ot thein do—else they ::IIIG 1;‘01 crowd tihe tnhur:c Mn(;:’!\y ow the nasty play has com L. All of us, more orple-, Itke a shoc) Wa get in a rut of emotions once in a ile and anything which takes us out of it seems to give a certain amount of pleas- ure. If the shock comes to our mnrnlsI all the worse for the morals, but why l‘n| the mischief we blame the shock I can't quite make out. It's not necessary for us to take it if we don’t want it. It isn't| obligatory on us to see the nasty plai' any more than we are compelled to drin five hundred glasses of whisky a day; but the public goes to see the nasty play | merely because it wants to see nastiness. | And that's the public's affair and it isn't | the actor’s. i | o4 Yot oboter | Then why blame the actor for it? In a certain very celebrated case involv- ln? the right—from the stand ral decency—for a play to New York, Justice rsman handed down a decision, in which he said: “Some minds are so sensitive as to be the undraped statue of the Venus de Milo, and regard the story of the merciful journey of the y Godiva as a shamefully indecent tale, while oth- ers find little to condemn In the lewd con- versation and lascivious conduct of the men and women whose lives are given over to debauchery and vice. The play Is not to be condemned because it may shock the sensitiveness of the former nor approved because it may gratify the lat- ter.” shocked b& And so you see that all men do not hold the same idea of any one play or book or painting. or anything of an artis- tic nature, even though certain set rules are put for their suidance. Everything in the world must depend on the point of view. Which brings us right down to the in- efficacy of what has been suggested for this country—a stage cemsor. What IY* the world good would the man do? He would only give a one-man idea. be- cause he could only see it from one point. He might be right, or he might be wrong. And it would be a toss up of a penay either way. If the American stage is to go to the dogs at a tremendous rate of speed unless something radical is done and done at once, have a whole college of stage censors—a hundred, two hundred if necessary. We certalnly can't leave it to the audi- ences, because nowadays the ..var:. avAlence is not a safe criterion. It will be At .to go into ecstacies over the nasty play and to pass by the sweet-smelling idyll that preaches uf goodness and light. And If we can't trust the American drama to a stage censor, to the actor, to the playwright, or to the audience, what ir the world are we going to do about it? 1 suppose the only way out of it will be to import plays from the French and the German. It would be rather an herolc measure, wouldn't it? O0CO000000000000000C0C000CCO0000D0000 Ghe Aristoeracy of the Dollar.
