Over Tariff Redu¬ ction To Amer- .   ican Ship¬ owners
(TeJ^rraph   to   Inaeiientleui.)
Washington, .\pril 13.—The Hou.se Democratic tariff caucus was plunged into an acrimonious debate over the proposition to allow a j per cent, re¬ duction in tariff duties on imports brought in American owned ships. The piovision remained in the bill by a vote of 129 to »S. The Ways and M.eans committee decided ihat this conces.sion to American ship owner.s w.i» an inducement for them to build .ships for the foreign trade and that il would serve as an induce¬ ment for the '.ipbuilding cf the Amer¬ ican merchant marine. This advant¬ age to the .\merican ship owier is lncreas<'d by a discriminating duty of 10 per cent, in addition lo the regu- lai tariffs as-.ses.'^ed agam.sl goods brought  into   ihis  country   in  foreign

Wa.shington. April 19.—President Wilson thoroughly alarmed over the rising tide of anti-Ame rican feeling in Japan caused Sec¬ retarj* Bryan to send a telegram to Governor fJohnson of I'ali- iomia urging a concilitory policy toward tlie oriental nation in the legislation of alien land ownership.
The step was taken by the President over    the protest  of the California   Congressional   delegation  the  meml>ers  of which  say the government has no right to interfere in  a  matter so  vital  so the future social and indastrial life of that community. Message to Governor. Here is the message to (foveriior -lohnson: The President directs me to say that while he fully recognizes the right of the people of Califfomia to legislate   according   to their judgment on the subject of land tenure, he feels it his duty j to urge a recognition of the International character of such legis¬ lation.   Being anxious to preserve and strengthen the long-stand¬ ing friendly relations existing between this country  and the na¬ tions of the orient, he very respectively but most earnestly ad¬ vises  against  the use of the words '' ineligihie to citizenship.'' He asks that you bring this view t'3 the attention  of the legis¬ lators.   He believes the Senate bell as telegraphed to the depart-i t.oitom.^    when  these phases were ment of State is greatly to be preferred.   Tht bill limited owner¬ ship to citizens and those who had declared their intentions to be¬ come citizens.
(Signed W. J. BRYAN.
The telegram was the result of a fwo hours' conference between the President and Siate department officials.    Confidential reports were read which lell that the warring political factious in Japan   Texas; are making use of the California incident to arouse feeing among   erners the uneducated masses which could ea-sily precipitate war.
The following interviews obtained by the International News Service indicate clearly the attiiude of the California delegation: Representative Kent: ¦" Japan is running it.s usual hliifT. The pretense that the Japanese nation does not recognize racial dis¬ tinctions in its international relations is absurd. There are racial distinctions which mu.st lie reckoned with in international inter¬ course and Jaj)an should acknowledge this and take a broad view of the question."
Representative Baker: "If the Caiifomia legislature will only go ahead and pass its legislation the disturbance will siibside and the alien act can then be calmly treated through the ordinary diplomatic and judicial channels. The legislation itself is not half so dangeroiis as the delay whicli gives opportunity for agitation and Japanese jingoism."
Hold His Place Representative Knowland: "The Caiifomia legislature seems to be pas.sing  the present  situation  np to the    President,    leaving
him to make some doHnite suggestion on the present national gov-, ^^^,^   ^,,^^^   ^^^,^   ^^     ^^.^^^^^^    ^_^ ernment or fo vever hold his peac<'.    The  Japanese  are not  help-   f.^reign mariiets and  ih- fi.ivor ing the .situation by holding mass meeiings ^d  making threats. This is only stiffening the determination of flip Caiifomia legisla-1 tors who art- trying to enact for the benefit  of their  Stale laws which have long been in force in  many other states.*'
Representative Ciirry: "I think the California legslafure ought to pa.ss the law and be done with it. There has been too much delay and agitation already. If they go quietly ahead and adopt their law a-s other states have done, little would have been said. There has bfen too much agitation of the qupsfion at Washington, at home and in Japan. The thing to do i.s to finish it up, and what¬ ever claims Japan or any other nation may then have, can be treat¬ ed in an orderly way."'
Congressman Kaliii: "What is ali fhe turmoil about. Ts Cali¬ fornia to be prohibited from doing what the Cnited Staiies govern¬ ment and many State governmen ts have done. States where the race prdhleni does not enter, hnve anti-alien laws. Ctalifomia is clearly within its rights and is dealing with a problem far more vital to its futui-e than that wh ich existed when other states adopted similar legislation. 1 h ope there will be no further delay by the legislature."
There will be no shake up in the ministerial ranks of the .Methodists in this vaUey. This is another of the results of the Sunday campaign and the condition.s here are likely to re¬ sult in no ^ changes in the entire Wilkes-Barre district- This ia the Hdvajicc report concerning the min¬ isterial appointments that will be an-l nounced tomorrow morning just be- fore the close of the conference now being held at the Fir.st .M.  E. Church
The decision not to make any changes is due to the manner in which the valley has been stirred during the past seven weeks. The ministers from this section have deep¬ ly impre.osed the presiding bishop and the ministers from the other sections by the manner in which they are en- ¦ thused. I
With a number of new converts in each of the churches it is felt that the pastors now in charge should not be disturbed in their work. The transportation of ministers from the other three dLstricts of the confer¬ ence Into this district might ¦work' harm to the work thus far started in .Reiver, this valley. "Keligioii.s suicide" is how • Kingston- one enthusiast termed the matter and .;on. D. D.; it   is .safe   to assure   the   members   of -B. D.
Mte transportation of liquors into dry territory. A res,olution that was ¦;nanimously passed was that a vote •f thanks be made ihie Pennsylvania itate Legislature for Its action in pro¬ viding for tfle reading of the bible in ;public schools of  the Slate.
