WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER ,3, 19&. 13 S i -. 3 T0 1 TO EXCLUDE JAR LAND OWNERS Ran Fr&n Cisco, Nov! 3.(L N". S.)' California voters yesterday .em phatically 'registered their approval of . legislation j against alien land ownership in the stat-. ) The amendment aimed at the Japan ewv which will , prohibit them from ownlur or holding- land in the state, car ried -by at ieaat three to one. The vote in San Francisco was about four to, one In favor of the measure. Some vupstate countien. In which feellnff agafnst the Japanette waa - -especially strong, ' went mIx to one for the law. The Harris prohibition -act modeled after tho Volstead enforcement meas ure, which would have given state offi cials power to enforce prohibition, was defeated. The vote available is "three to one against the 'measure, but rural districts will cut this 'ratio down prob ably. . Return's indicate, however, that the voters have registered emphatically '.against the measure. ; . CCNdBY SILENT ON VICTORY OF ANTI-JAPANESE LAW ' ' - Washington, Nov- 3. (U. P.) Secre tary of State Colby 'today refused to comment on -the adoption of the Califor- - nla law prohibiting all land-holding by Japanese. . The passage of the law was said to be significant; however, in that it makes the protest of Japan a definite, issue be jween the two countries, the protest hav ing been" made originally months ago when the California measure was only x proposed. Since then Ambassador Shide hara and the state department have been . negotiating to settle Japan's protest and ' the negotiations are believed to be near- ; ing a conclusion. WHITE PINE BOX IS ELOQUENT FOR PEACE (Continued From One) a trooper in full uniform half asleep on a bench ' near the baggage room. He wears an ammunition belt and' revolver. Me la on duty. A few feet aWay on a baggage truck is a white pine box and raping it is an American flag. . illET AT LEAST PAID . Hundreds of American boys- are com- ' lng home from France that way. Theii , votes . were east on the battlefields of France.- It' twotyears this month since the ' guns stopped roaring in the' Ar- gonne. Botlusldes in the political cam. palprn have talked either of the League of Rations ata provocative or preventive of war. The election result is a mixed verdict on domestic and international affairs. . :Tet tho writer cannot help thinking to day, of the" scene at the railroad station at night the lonely remains of a boy that has given up his life for the na tion. -It seemed but a feeble aftermath of the cry that went up during the war to stop war forever. Boys are coming back from the other side with beautiful flags draped' about them.- Soldiers escort , them to the hundreds of Villages where ther heart-broken parent welcome even 'at this late date some faint reminder of rtheir sons heroism. These silent vot ers are received into the soil of the land thf y sought- to defend. DOMESTIC ISSUES RAISED And yet. In the great presidential elec tion, where party bitterness and the friction of the contest has prevailed, the thought has. unquestionably been of Is sues and subjects far afield from the sacrifice these troopers have .made. The effort to stop war- has gotten little en couragement from America in the last two years, ; Had the fatalities been as great In the American army as they were in the French, the people of the United 'States might have felt more deeply the wounds . of war. There might have been more demand for constructive ideas on the prevention ' of war.-1 The campaign Jias unfortunately -"'centered '! on domestic grievances. 1 Such scant attention as was given to the. greatest of , all jprobSems, world peace, waa concentrated ion violent criticism of the one plan , offered, and thus many 'people have been led to for get the original objects and principles of the whole thing. ; KEEDS 8TMPATHT . i The new president of the United States will have, great responsibility, lie de serves sympathy as much as congratula tion. For the thousands of boys who are ; returning home In the white pine boxes come as mute reminders of Amer ican duty still undone. ; It may be !"The" league or "A" league, but It will be pome kind of League of Nations, some thing that will fulfill the pledges made when America entered the war, and that responsibility which the new president will face. '. - ' Such is the underlying psychology of this election day and when the parades of triumph and the, happy plaudits of victory have died down there will come stronger and stronger the spirit of these silent voters to demand:' a real contribu tion from America to world peace. HARDING AND HIS TICKET SWEEP U.S. (Continued Prom Paxa Om) figures of the Republican majorities and pluralities to the women's vote. The Republicans succeeded lnt turn ing back i into , the Republican 1 column every Northern and "Western state which Woodrow j, Wilson carried over Charles E. Hughes In 1916. Four years ago 'the Central and Far West elected Wilson. Yesterday "those same , states rolled up Impressive majorities for Harding. Fourteen states which in 1916 were car ried by 'vyilBon and which Harding car ried. yesterday were California, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Maryland; Nevada. New Hampshire, North Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Even in the Southern states "the Democratic majorities showed, in many cases, heavy declines from 1916. Where Texas four years, ago gave Wil son a handsome majority of 221,515, it was generally -estimated ' today that Cox' majority' will be many, thousands less. Republicans even -had strong hopes today of electing their men In . several congressional fights.- Other Southern states showed like decreases. ' .. The 13 states which Governor Cox ap peared today to have certainly carried are : Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Geor gia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Car olina, Oklahoma. Kentucky, South Car olina, Texas and Virginia. , Republican national headquarters here were literally flooded with telegrams to day and some of these would not con cede the Democrats the so-called border states of Kentucky and Oklahoma "until the. last vote was counted. On the face of the returns, however, they appeared to be safely in the Democratic column. BEHIND, YET TICTOE j . One of the unusual features of the election wan that Judge Nathan L. Mil ler, .Republican candidate for governor of New York, ran nearly a million vote behind the Republican -national ticket and yet was elected by a substantial plu rality. ' '!' "Al." Smith, Tammany Hall's favorite son, polled nearly a million more votes in New York than Cox and yet was de feated.' Miller's plurality .was estimated today between 60.000 and 80,000. While definite figures were not avail-; able today, it appeared that' the Social ist popular vote is going to be consider able, as compared with former -years. In New York city alone Eugene y. Debs, the- prisoner-candidate, rolled up nearly 150.000 votes, j Figures on the Farmer-Labor ticket, headed i by Parley P. Chrlstensen . of Utah, were not available this forenoon. The figures on other minor parties are not believed to be impressive, j" Accused of Robbing TJ.. S.
