THE ATLAM A GEORGIAN AM) NEWS. FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1913. California Minister Declares His Country Will Not Stand for Discrimination, 'Certainly Japan will light If nec essary to protect the rights of her siXbject.8. no matter where they are. And stye will not stand for unfair discrimination .” So said the Rev Joseph^ Inaza- wa. pastor of the Japanese Presby- ’ erlan Church of Los Angeles, a com* ' mlssioner to the General Assembly of^ the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A , in session here. ' But” hastily added the Rev, In aztwa, “I do not believe there will ever be the necessity for appeal to arms. This great American nation and the nation of Japan are too closely allied on the broad principles of Christianity to permit a cruel and disastrous war over a question that might so easily be settled by agreement or arbitration. The Rev. Mr. Inazawa, with his wife, a native Californian, will sail in a feu weeks for Japan for a va- cation of several months. He has not #en his atlve land In a quarter of a century, having cast his lot on the west coast «»f America exactly 26 years ago. It’s 26 on this side of the Pacific and 26 on the other,” he expressed it Friday morning in conversation witty a Georgian reporter. Five years of his life in America were spent In the San Francisco Theological Sem inary Twenty years he has spent in evangelistic work among the Jap anese of tyls State, working in many of the principal cities and the rural districts One of ttye indorsers of the Rev. Mr Inazawa, commending his work and bespeaking the kindly considera tion of Christians everywhere, Is the Rev. Hugh K. Walker, formerly pas tor of Immanuel Presbyterian Church of Los Angeles, now of Atlanta. In fact, he bears the reputation of hav ing done a great work among the Japanese who have taken up their ' residence in California. His church has granted him leave of absence to visit the home land. Wife Rapa Alien Bill. Mrs. Inazawa. who Is a woman of * \£i - v strong conviction, thoroughly sympathetic 1n all her husband’s ac tivities. was even more pronounced in her view that the Japanese wera being wrongly treated In ihe matter of the anti-alien land bill Mrs. Tnazawa said: “It Just so happens that the Leg tstature this year is strongly in fa vor of that kind of attitude But you • would be surprised to know the strength of the sentiment against Governor Johnson and his followers, the advocates of the bill. "It is not so much the actual text of the law." she continued, “as It • 1s the spirit that Is behind It There is an Indisputable feeling that Japan is being unfairly treated, and you can * re»t assured that Japan will not ul- ’ low her subjects to he discriminated against. Hut our hope lies in the fact tha< ihere is such a strong feel ing against the bill. 'The Japanese are a hyersensl- tive peuple. votT know; their honor ■ • is supreme. There is all the dlffer- " *=>nce tn the world between the Japa nese and the Chinese." Both the Los Angeles preacher ami . t is wife made It very clear that the Japanese could not be kicked around as had been the case with the China man And as for a "yellow peril," > thfy hooted the Idea. Mr. Inazawa was asked what prog ress the Japanese military compa nies in California ware making In their daily drills and maneuvers. Japs Have No Militia. "If there is a company of Japs or ganlzed and drilling in military ma neuvers in the whole tSate of Cali fornia, T do not know It And am certain if there were any such. 1 would know. There has never beet q greater injustice done my people than the circulated reports that they were organized already to tight th United States "We look on the matter in this fight: The California anti-alien land bill is in direct violation of th“ treaty this country has with Japan, and even if the State does make it a lav, we believe the United States Supreme Court will rule it unconsti tutional I do not fear any war. But most certainly Japan will fight if the lghts of her subjects are trampled. ^’But then," continued Mr. Inaza wa. "America and Japan are bound by a greater tie than politics—Chris tianity. Mv country, by leaps and bounds, has adopted the Christian re ligion and she has adopted American civilization to .such an extent that I do not believe'they will ever clash. "Our differences will be settled on he broad principles of Christianity.” Race Riots Follow Attack in Oklahoma His Ore Hobby Is Walking. I like to walk some myself, said a well-known business man yester day. "but I know a roan who lives out in Kirkwood that has a mania for it. It's his one hobby, and he rides—-or rather walks It to death-; that is. Judged from my angle, of course. Walking with him is a pleas ure. But if I did as much of it as he does It certainly would not remain a pleasure long. "Winter and summer he arises early and before breakfast he does a long walk, just how long I have no means of knowing, but 1 have it from some of his neighbors that he walks a good many miles before breaking his fast. Then, every afternoon when he gets off from w'ork. he does another long ^ walk. I wouldn't be surprised if he didn’t walk home every day, and. be lieve me, that is some walk from At lanta to Kirkwood, especially after a hard day’s work "This fellow has a desk job. Dur ing his working hours he Is tied down to one office and he finds it necessary to walk a good deal to keep in good physical condition. One Sunday aft ernoon T met him out near Peachtree Creek and we fell into conversation I had seen him on the street often, but did not know his name. We be came acquainted in this fashion and got to talking about the benefits of walking. I saw at once that lie was a crank on the subject, and at part ing he asked if I wouldn't join him next Sunday in a little stroll ‘ Where shall we go?' I asked “‘Oh, say as far as Norcross and back.’ said he. "Norcross Is twenty miles from At lanta Forty miles in one day did not look good to tne, so I pleaded a previous engagement," Financing a Trip To Town and Back.

"Bud” had taken part in these same exercises and he wanted to see how they looked on a screen. His finances, however, were not In flourishing condition, so he went to his mother to wheedle her out of arfare and the price of a ticket. Mother had only flve cents, hut she j surrendered It on "Bud’s" explana- i tlon that he didn't mind walking to | FIGHT LOST, SHIS MRS, 11G5TREET Gainesville Postmaster Asks Pres- | ident to Hear Her State Casr Before Committee, WASHINGTON.

That was the smallest coin he had. And "Bud.” of course,, didn’t have to walk home. "As a financier," said grandpa to one of the clerks in the office, "J.
