Webb Defends His Bill.
(United Tree lulled Wire.)
San Francisco, May 21. Attorney
General Webb, framer of the anti-alien
bill Just signed by Governor Johnson,
pointed out at a clvio center dinner here
today that California atands safe In her
legislation. Webb said:
"We have not violated any treaty. We
must keep this in mind. Our framing
of the anti-alien bill was not based on
a feeling of race superiority, or
directed against the Japanese alone. It
was predicated on race and desirability.
It is one thing to Invite a stranger to
your house and another to give him the
house."
John D. Bennett In speaking against
the bill said:
"Oriental legislation dates back to
1878. We have limited the oriental in
regard to fisheries, land, schoola and
taxes. All this has been based on race
hatred. Californlans have never eared
who cultivated their lands. There is as
HttWTneed fotrthts sort of legislation In
California as In New Terk, where scores
of other .races .have .been pouring In
steadily for years."

" This was the declaration of H., T.
Tamnren. one of the publishers of the
Denver Post, who Is here after a tour
of Jaonn.
"Foreigners sojourning in Tokio who
pretend to a knowledge of - economic
conditions say Japan is not financlaly
able to carry on a war with the United
States. That may account for the ef
fort of Japanese statesmen to minimise
the effect of anti-alien legislation in
California.
"War with the United States, how
