The ambassador has been antlous to determine whether the stats department is alive to the situation and his informal representations have been construed as a protest. A more format protest may come from Japan later, it is believed. It Is contended that the mikado's gov ernment has dons everything to meet objections of the United States in con nection with Japanese in this country and only recenUjteplaced a bah on the "picture brides" practice in response to agitation in California. today, and those i were being cared for by their more fortunate neighbors.
