'Pro-Japs Hope to Defeat It by Obtaining. Legislative Delay RO-JAP interests are relying upon one thing to defeat the anti-alien land law, proposed by Representatives Beeler and Jones. And that is delay! ; Delay alone can defeat this measure, Delay alone is the pro-Jap hope. Delay alone can kill it in the house. | Delay alone can kill it in the senate. If the measure goes to a vote in the house and the senate, it will become law. The Japs know it. The pro-Japs know it. And the attorneys who are seeking such delays know it. The legislature should also know it, The legislature must insist upon a vote—and as soon as) possible. The house can vote on the bill and transmit it to the senate before this week is over. Whatever delay was necessary in order to determine the constitutionality of the bill, has now been had. ‘There is no excuse for further delay. The senate should get the measure in time to act upon | it next week. The legislature adjourns March 10. There |is no time to lose. The state must line up with California and the rest of) the Pacific coast to stop the further aggression of Japanese. | {It must take positive and concrete action to impress our) |national government with the fact that nothing less than| the absolute restriction of further Japanese immigration will ever be satisfactory. There is no better way of im- pressing our national government with this fact than by doing all in our state power to restrict Japanese aggression. Hope for the World a man who has made much money out of display | tC) e female form comes out and says: “I want to see more clothes on women; I want them to dress more| modestly; I want to see longer skirts and more of them,”| there’s surely hope for the world. That’s Lee Shubert, theatrical producer. When Dr. Bowlby, a leader in the Sunday reform move- ment, declares: “I believe in kissing. It is wonderfully week days or on Sundays,” he touches the human side of things. And it is hard to believe that he favors the removal of the sun from Sunday, the hushing of gladsome song) of the canary on that day, or the enjoining of the flight of r the bluebirds and swallows on a day set apart for rest. It is fair to presume that there is much good on each side of almost every question. If Shubert favors a return to sanity in dressing it is not fair to question his motives by even expressing opinion that with more clothes on the women outside, greater crowds will pack his theatre to see the girls in the ordinary garb of musical comedy. If dear old Dr: Bowlby and Mr. Shubert keep on moving in their present direction, at no late date the millennium The Court Erred ANSAS CITY court of appeals ruled that “uh huh” does not legally signify consent, and cannot be trans- ly) as “yes.” The matter before the court was ceremony; the bridegroom gave his assent to by saying “uh huh.” h the memory of man runneth not to been the custom ‘to place less strain col by substituting “uh huh” for “yes.” Not in Kansas City, Ma course, this doesn’t signify that the court there is t.

And most everybody knows that “uh huh” means “yes.” now are firm in their belief that the present British government will not long outlast the Wilson administration over here. Lloyd George has a hard row to hoe. An indication of | which way the wind is blowing apparently is afforded by ithe parliamentary election in Dover, once overwhelmingly Tory, and for years a Lloyd George district. Dover turned against Lloyd George, electing Sir Thomas Polson, independent, practically unknown, running an anti- |Lloyd George race. He transformed a government ma- | jority of 6,000 two years ago into an opposition majority | of 3,130. | This is much as if Georgia elected a republican governor, Pennsylvania cast a democratic electoral vote, or Indiana} chose a secialist senator.

The Japanese are wrong. The Amerioan people as a whole have no Pérvonal grievance against them. We seek no trouble with Japan, We didn't ike the Shantung grab because we were sorry for China, and the Korean massacres are disgusting to us because of their barbarity However, we do not propose to meddie in the business, no long as the American flag and American interests are protected, any more than we Propose to meddle in the British government of India or misgovernment of Ireland, We have troubles of our own, So long as the Japanese do not become a dintinct world menace, the People of the United States will have no special interest whatever in them or their doings. If the attitude of the whole country toward Japan could be averaged and presented in summary it would probably turn out to be one, not of “watehful waiting,” but simply of waiting, It im waiting to see what the Japanese do tn thetr new-won position in world affairs.
