CONGRESS WHOLLY WITHIN ITS
RIGHTS IN PASSING THE
IMMIGRATION BILL
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 23—
The American reply to the Japanese
protest against Exclusion of Orientals,
made public last week, had a cordial,
friendly tone, but clearly asserted the
exclusion provision in no way tres
passed upon written or implied obli
gations of the United States.
Hughes declared that Congress is
wholly within its rights and pronounc
ed its action “mandatory upon the ex
ecutive branch of the government and
allows not latitude for the exercise of
executive discretion.”
The note is construed here to indi
cate the view held at Washington that
the law is a closed incident and no at
tempt to modify it is expected. Hughes
prepared the note with the utmost
care. He expressed pleasure over the
“friendliness and candor” in the pro
test Hanihara delivered May 31 and
wrote:
“You may be assured of the readi
ness of this government to consider in
the same spirit the views you have set
forth,” pointing out that exclusion is
applicable to all aliens ineligible to
citizenship with exceptions. The note
said “taking these exceptions into ac
count, the provision does not differ
greatly in practical operation from the
understanding embodied by the ‘gen
tleman’s agreement,’ ”.
He declared that the advisibility of
dealing with the question by legisla
tion instead of negotiating “necessar
ily remains with the legislative power
of this government,” and said that the
United States considers Japan releas
ed from the gentleman’s agreement af
ter the exclusion becomes effective on
July 1.
Jap Papers Displea/jed
TOKIO, June 23—Disappointment
and bitterness mark the tones of edi
torials appearing in Japanese news
papers with reference to the reply of
the United States to the Japanese pro
test against exclusion.
The comment ranges from restrain
ing articles of the more sober journals
to unrestrained denunciation of Ameri
ca by the jingo editors.
The jingo “Asahi” declares that the
United States has evaded the real is
sue of racial discrimination.
“Kokukin,” points out that Japan
must re-orient her foreign policy views
and alter her international policies.
“Yamato” points out that it is the
duty of Japan to fight exclusion to
the end.
