WING PROMISES
TO BACK THE COAST
ON IMMIGRATION
By George IX. Holmes
Marlon, Ohio, gept. 14. (I. N.
8. ) Recognizing that there exists
between the United States and Japan
a friction over the Immigration ques
tion which might lead to .grave con
sequences. Senator Warren G. Hard
ing promised a group of Callfornl
ans today that the federal govern
ment would stand behind the Pa
cific, coast states In every measure
consistent with national honor to
help them solve their problem.
"No one," said Senator Harding,
"can tranquilly contemplate the future
of this republic without an anxiety for
abundant provision for admission to
our shores of only the Immigrant who
can be assimilated and thoroughly im
bued with the American spirit."
Senator Harding addressed the Call-
fomlans. about SO In number, from his
front porch. They came across the
continent to lay before the Republican
candidate some of the i Pacific Coasts
particular problems. Their spokesman
wss Oovernor William D. Stephens,
and included In the delegation, were
representatives of every big Industry
on the coast
"Our people," said Governor Steph
ens, addressing Senator Hardin, "are
practically unanimous In opposing the
further Immigration into our republic
Of unasslmllable aliens."
In reply Senator Harding said he
realised the position of the coast
states.
"There Is abundant evidence of the
dangers which lurk In racial dlffer
'ncs," he said. "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."
Senator Harding also dealt specifical
ly with a request by the Callfornlans
for protection of their home-srown
products. If It is found that a higher
protect! tariff is needed, that tariff,
he promised, will be given.
