C. RYAN, Special Dispatch to The Xfws, Copyright, 1022, Xows Publishing Co. San Francisco, Nov. 18. There are more than 40,000 American Japanese in California alone who, despite the recent decision of the Supreme Court are bona fide citizens in the United States.

Under the laws of this Country they also will be legally qualified to own California land now in dispute regardless of any air-tigrht provision of anti-aiien law. There are at the present time a total of 100,000 Japanese in tno State. It is pointed out by many who decline to wax enthusiastic over the. recent decision of the Supreme which, however, upheld public opinion generally, that so soon as these 40,000 Japanese become of legal age they also legally can step in as owners of SO0.OO0 acres of the finest si icultural land in the State, land which their parents, Japanese corporations with American nainta now hold under various lease arrangements which seem just as effective as real ownership. Giini er Moore iaim 59 i 1SHOES HOSIERY LUGGAGE Thisr is the reason why the Su- FLASHLIGHTS BATTERIES preme Court naturalization decision produced less reaction here, he fountain head anti-Japanese legislation in the "West, than in the various States where the Japanese are not a problem and the effect of the decision upon international relations was more of a topic of discussion.

OTHER CASES COME UP. On the 27th of this month tne Supreme Court will hear arguments on the test case brought to determine the constitutionality of the California law duplicated generally in nine other Western States directed against alien ownership of land. One result of the Supreme Court decision will be a concerted demand by the Congressional representatives of the nine Western States, in which the Japanese question is a vital problem, for a. law doing away with the so-called gentleman's agreement whereby Japanese immigration is restricted by an understanding between the two Governments. Naturally there is a division in sentiment on whether this Supreme Court decision will be made the medium for representations between Tokio and Washington.

There hr.s been a dying down of the "Japanese war scare" talk since the Washington armament conference of a year ago and the present diplomatic relations are more amiable in many years.
