DEPLORE RULING
ALIEN LAND
TOKIO, Nov. 22. (By Associated
Press.) 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."
The Kokumtn advises the govern
ment to redouble Its efforts to settle
the American question, because, the
newspaper asserts, "Japanese friend
ship will never be permanently ce
mented until the spirit of discrimina
tion has been eliminated."

BEFORE S. COURT
WASHINGTON. Nvov. 22. The po
sition taken by the comptroller of the
currency in the branch bank contro
versy was assailed In the supreme
court today by Frederick W. Leh
niann, former solicitor general, in
closing argument In tho ense brought
by the First National bank of St.
Louis against the Rtnte of Missouri.
Contending that the national and
Missouri state laws regarding the
establishment of branch banks were
In harmony, Mr. Lehmann declared
that when tho comptroller of the cur
rency failed to enforce the federal law
by closing the branch established by
the First National bank of St. Louis,
Missouri had a right to do so. Mr.
Lehmann appeared as counsel for
Missouri. He upheld the authority
of the state to bring tho enso origin
ally in its state courts and urged the
supreme court to decide tho Issue on
Its merits and not on technical ques
tions relating to jurisdiction.
Insisting that tho proceedings In
stituted by Missouri were an Illegal
interference with matters wholly
within tho control of the federal gov
ernment, C. A. Severance, represent
ing the national banks which Joined
in opposing tho state's position, as
serted that tho comptroller of the
currency had complete authority to
permit the establishment of branches
and in a number of cases he had done
so. !
Mr. Severance Insisted that tho
question of tho establishment of
branches by National banks had not
been presented by Missouri in such a
way ns to warrant the court in dispos
ing of it on its merits. Tho case
should bo thrown out, ho said, he
cause Missouri had no authority to go
into court originally and question the
