FACRAMENTO. CaA. April 15. A sharp conflict between the two houses of the Legislature over the proper wording of the proposed antl-allen land lw 1 In prospect as a result of the furore raised In Japan against the measure during the past ten day". The Senate bill, several times amend ed and now awaiting final passage In the upper bouse, was drawn with the objections of the Japanese government In mind, and Is admittedly less dras tic law than that proposed in the As sembly. It guarantees full treaty rights to every alien, and classes all foreigners alike, whether Japanese or Kuropean. The Assembly bilL which likewise has reached the third reading file. Is more directly aimed at the Japanese. It was drawn P and recommended nearly two weeks ago. before the agi tation In Toklo reached Its present pitch, and makes no mention of treaty rights or obligations. Year's Time I Glvea. By its terms, an alien may hold title to real property for one year, where upon said property shall escheat to the state. The Senate bill provides that at the expiration of the year the property only becomes "subject to escheat." which gives a longer period for the alien to qualify for ownership, or to dispose of his holdings advantageously. The particular clause In the Assembly bill, however, that is known to be. ob jectionable to Japan is in the section relating to corporations, which was de signed to protect European syndicates, while prohibiting Japanese corpora tions. It reads as follows: "Section 8. i.very corporation, the majority of the Issued capital stock of which Is owned by aliens who are In eligible to become citizens of the United States under the naturalization laws thereof, shall be considered an alien within the meaning of this act" lateatloa Mast Be Declared. Japanese are regarded as ineligible to become citlxens. The Senate bill. In stead of barring such "lnellgibles" draws the line upon "aliens who have not declared their Intentions to become citlxens" and prohibits even Europeans unless they make such declaration. Assemblyman Sutherland, an adminis tration leader in the Lower House, fa vors the assembly committee bill for the reason, he said tonight, that it would not seriously affect European capital, but Europeans are eligible to citizenship. He predicted confidently that the assembly bill would take the place of the substitute proposed by the Senate and would become a law. Sena tor Thompson, chairman of the sub committee that drafted the Senate bill. i. - .1 1 rm.r-1 1 v nnnDMlt view and pre dicts that his bill will succeed.

If the assembly passes its bill, both will go to a free conference committee in which case i look for the Senate bill to take precedence. t-. lntfnnc is hlnr brought UD on Senator Thompson and his colleagues on the Judiciary committee to offer an amendment to exempt properties that might subsequently come Into the pos- -it nf riirnnm svndlcates that now hold mortgages or deeds of trust In Caliromia- Hundreds of letters have been re- i ia Hrft rtt nronosed i ri cu .'- 1 amendment came today from attorneys In San Francisco who represent Eng lish and French capitalists.

Exact Status of Japanese Never De cided in Cnlted States. WASHINGTON, April 15. The gen eral opinion In official circles Is that tbe administration would welcome a test In the Supreme Court on the ques tion of the eligibility of Japanese to naturalization. So far. all decisions of record, mostly in Western courts, have held that the Japanese were not eligi ble to naturalization, net being such white persons nor persons of African descent as are mentioned In the nat uralization laws as being alone eligi ble to admission to citizenship. The Issue has never been tested be fore the Supreme Court In a direct form.' in in the Probate Court here today. In the letter mailed to Rev. Father e .id T nnpth. nf Fscjinalii. Mich. r ,ui.i. . .
