Outside these settlements land-owning, even for residential or business pur- poses, was absolutely prohibited. In 1910 the Jap- anese diet passed a law permitting foreigners to own land, but the law was hedged about by many qualifi- | cations. “The most interesting fact, however, remains to be told. | In addition to all the above-mentioned qualifications, it was provided that the law was to go into effect only when pro-| mulgated by imperial ordinance. And for ten years it has! not been promulgated, thus remaining a dead-letter. Re-| cently press dispatches from Japan announce that the| imperial government is about to promulgate the law, but at this writing it is apparently not yet in force. And, as already stated, the foreign community regards it with dis- Fabien, believing that it does not provide for security of mure, “Japan's attitude toward immigration is decidedly ex- clusionist in character. * * * The immigration of for- eign workers, skilled or unskilled, is régarded by ‘Japan with great disfavor, and restrictive legislation enables the government to exclude such persons at its pleasure.” Japan's right to exclude those whom it considers men- acing to its’ industrial, economic and civic happiness, cannot be questioned. Nor, on the other hand, can Japan question the right of America to take similar action. Inviting Trouble Along the street came a girl in her teens, carrying a heavy child. It was hard work, and she set him down, saying, “I can’t carry you an other step; you are much too heavy.” The child howled. _ In the girl's tone there was a little exasperation and something that seemed like blamo—the child was “too heavy.” Then, too, she was directly announcing that she would no longer do what he had evidently demanded.
