Tho I'ost Intelligencer has maintained a aim liar attitude. Tho Blar, u Scrlpps newspaper, Is tho only dally Journal of tho city which huH iiupported tho Legion and tho Antl-Jupaneso league In tho recent movement. Itnbert H Iloyns, preiildent of tho Bcattle chamber of commerce, In n putillitlied Interview, declared In ef fect that Oregnn'H attempt to Induce Washington to tuko part In any legislation on the Japnneiio tueitlon won a "utab In tho hack," aimed at Seattle by Portland, because Seattle lm big business with Japan, and ex pct Incras J;J .tho KTAOINutn pects Increase thereof In 1921, whllo Portland" "harf nor-ono little dlnkr Japanese lino running out of ltd port and la not Interested In Kouttlu's future." Iloyns pointed out that anti-Jap-nni'sn ogltatlon In California loitt San Francisco tho Jnpnneao trade, which came to Seattlo, and that agi tation will rout Heuttlo millions of dollars mid lone hundreds of men their Jobs. Accordingly Iloyns sent n special committee of the Seattle chamber of commerce to (lovernor I-ouls K. Hart, to frustrate, as he states, an attempt to mnko n tool of tho Wash ington legislature for tho benefit of Oregon and tho detriment of Sunttlo. tt Japan OnieUn the Whip 8ldo by sldo with the stntement of noyno appears one from M.

Tho Increase of trude between Seattlu and Jnpancso ports during 1921 will he more than 40 por cent over that of 1920." ' When questioned regarding tho rumor that Portland's scheme Ih to drlvo Japaneso shipping away from Seattlo, Portland expecting to bono fit by such loss of business In Se attle, Watanbo said: "Seattlo has tho bulk of Jupanese shipping now. Wo huvo no dcslra to tako our business to any other port. Wo don't want to go to Van couver, I), C, Up to dato wo havo soon no reason why wo should more our terminals to Vancouver, II. C." It Is stated that tlio Jupimeso havo been working In tho stato Jegls laturq of Wushlngton tho strongest .lobby which hus boon seen there In many years. Tho Churches Active During tho latter part of 1920 an effort to Hocuro a petition for an alien land law In Washington fatlod partly bocniiHO of lack of sufficient time, nnd largely horauso of tho vory uggrosslve cnmpatitn Inuugiinrt ed by tho Japanese Thoy woro warned hy their California brethren to fight tho mattor boforo sufficient signatures could bo socurod, and ac cordingly Issued through tho churchos an urgont appeal nddrossod fc all Christians.

A samplo leaflet which I hnvo Is filled with tho gross misstatements with which the California campaign made us fa miliar, designed to Insplro sympathy for tho Japnnoso as victims of In Justlco and ubuso. Iabor Divided on tho Issue Certain nidlcal labor elements, too, openly iisulsted the Jupanese In thnlr fight. It was ono such lubur loader who doclarod to Congressman lltuker of the house Immigration committee when In tho northwest last summer, that organized labor in Seattle and Tucoma was not suffi ciently Interested to uppear boforo the commlttoo In Its Japaneso In vontlgatlon because members of or grnlzed labor were employed by Japanese shipping Interests In both places at good wages und with fair treatment. Tho conservative labor element, it Is understood, was gen erally sympathetic to tho Legion's fight, nnd tho secretary of tho Seat tle Typographical union was named as a member of tho late Japaneso tongue's executive commlttoo. Notwithstanding tho advorso con ditions, tho fight Is still being main tained for passago ot tbo alien Und bill In, tho legislature. It was re ported out by tho federal relations Commlttoo of the .lower houso on Fobrunry 9th with favorabto rocom ntondatlon, but sent at once to tho Judiciary commlttoo for furthor con sideration.
