The next logical must be a federal law barring all persons who cannot me citizens of the United States, and an amendment ‘to the constitution denying citizenship to the children of who are not eligible. That would solve the Jap lem for all time. It would stop the ever-increasing of Jap immigration and make it impossible for n-born Japs to get control of this coast. ‘McAdoo says that the republicans lost because their party made no to the great spiritual forces.
