Inherent racial differences. not prejudices. make legislation of this character best for both countries. The tragedy of the situation lies in the fact that while excluding the Japanese from citizenship we have permitted them to come in large numbers as permanent land settlers. An accolmplisled writer on this subject has well said: It is bad policy on the part of the American Government to admit large numbers of nny race to become permanent residents of the country and yet deny them the privilege of being naturalized. By that denial we force them to segregate themselves and organize for selfprotection. We compel them to retain allegiance to a foreign state and yet blame the vast majority of them for training their children to that sanie allegiance. - We ought either to limit such Immigration very strictly or to grant the privilege of naturalization.

Barred from Americanization. they turn with all their hearts and all their allegiance to the motherland.
