Lengthy comment on the de cision of the United States supreme court sustaining the alien land laws of California and Washington is con tained in yesterday's editions of some of the leading Japanese newspapers. Regret is expressed at what the Chugat Shogyo terms "evidence of racial discrimination which Is incon sistent with the humanity, justice and benevolence to which tho American government and tho people tradition ally are pledged." The Hochl, In a similar vein, states "If the agitators' final object Is not to drive out all Japanese from America, the anti-alien land laws should be modified."
