"ThcM differences, without raising any question of Inferi ority, superiority or Inequality, may create, as I believe they have created In our Pacific Coast states,, without blame to either side, a friction that must be recoirnlsl. The nation owes It to the Pacific Coast states to stand behind them In lecensary measures con sistent with our national honor to re lieve them of their difficulties."
