1 6 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, FRIDAY. MAY 16, 1013. F :RO0f® Aso^Tovw FIGHT LOST. SHIS IS. II California Minister Declares His Country Will Not Stand for Discrimination. “Certainly Japan will fight if nec essary to protect the rights of her subjects, no matter where they are. { And she will not stand for unfair discrimination.” So said the Rev. Joseph K. Inaza wa, pastor of the Japanese Presby- 4 terian Church of Los Angeles, a cone * missioner to the General Assembly * of the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A., in session here. “But” hastily added the Rev. In- * azawa. ”1 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 *«lhal might so easily be settled by **agreement or arbitration. The Rev. Mr. Inazawa, with his l wife, a native «'aliforhtan, will sail in a few weeks for Japan for a va cation of several months. He has not * seen his a the land In a quarter of a century, having cast Ids lot on the west coast of Ajiiertca exactly 25 years ago. ‘it's 26 on this side of the Pacific and 25 on the other," he expressed it Friday morning in conversation fc \vith a Georgian reporter. Five years i of his life In America were spent in the San Francisco Theological Scir>- * inarv. Twenty years he has spent Vi in evangelistic work among the Jaj. ia8»»e*t? of hit State, working in many P»of the principal titles and the rural districts. One of the 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 jig visit the home land. Wife Raps Alien Bill. '■•nt Mrs. Inazawa, w ho is a woman S* very strong conviction, thoroughly sympathetic in all her husband’s ac tivities, was even more pronounce in her view that the Japanese were ■ being wrongly treated In the matter of the anti-alien land bill. % Mrs. Inazawa said: r It just so happens that the Leg Islatui o this year is strongly in fa *«* \or of that kind of attitude. But you ** would be surprised to know the strength of the sentiment against Vr Governor Johnson and his follow ers jfc the advocates of the bill. “it fs not so much the actual text of th-* law." she continued, “as It i* the- spirit that is behind it. There is an indisputable feeling that Japan r> Is being unfairly treated, and you can * rest assured that Japan will not al : Iqw her subjects to be disc riminated against. But our hope lies In the fact that there' is such a strong feel ing against the bill. ** "The Japanese are a hyersensl tive people, you know ; their hono is supreme. There is all the differ ence tn the world between the Japs f, ne.se and the Chinese.” Both the Los Angeles preacher and bis 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,” > they hooted the idea. Mr, Inazawa was asked what prog loss the Japanese military conipa *,nies In California were making In their daily drills and maneuvers. Japs Have No Militia. “If there Is a company of Japs or ganized and drilling in military ma neuvers In the whole tSale of Cali fornia. I do not know it. And I am certain if there were any such, m I would know. There has never been ' a greater injustice done my people thaa the circulated reports that they \xere organized already to fight the l otted States "We look on the matter in this I flight: The California anti-alien land bill is in direct violation of the treaty this country has with Japan, and * * even if the State docs make it a law, we believe the United States . Supreme Court will rule it unconsti tutional. 1 do not fear any war. But most certainly Japan will fight if the * f. rights of her subjects are trampled. "But then,” continued Mr. Inaza wa, "America and Japan are bound by a greuter tie than politics—Chris tianity. My country, by leaps and bounds, has adopted the Christian re- .**9* ligion and she has adopted American $5civilization to such an extent that 1 ofcdp not believe they will ever clash. ** “Our differences will be settled on p?* the broad principles of Christianity.” Race Riots Follow Attack in Oklahoma BARTLESVILLE. OKLA May 1* . A serious situation exists at Dela- a ware. Okla.,*v» here race riots have.de- v el oped after an attempt late yester day afternoon b>‘ Ernest Fields, a ne- ^ gro, to attack the wife of a white farmer.

"but I know a man who llvea ut in Kirkwood that has a mania for it. lt'» his one hobby, and he rides or rather walks—*ll to death; that is. judged from my angle, of our.se. ure. But if I did an much of it as he does it certainly would not remain pleasure long. "Winter and summer he arises early nd before breakfast he does a long walk, juat how long 1 have no means of knowing, but I have it from some f his neighbors that he walks a good many miles before breaking his fast. Then, every afternoon when he gets off from work, he does another long walk. I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't walk home ev«*ry 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 I met him out near Peachtree ('reek 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 he was crank on the subject, and at part ing he asked If I wouldn't loin him next Sunday in a little stroll " Where shall we go?' I asked " ‘Oh, say as far as Norrross and back,’ said he. ‘Norrross Is twenty miles from At lanta. Forty miles in one day did not look good to me, so I pleaded a previous engagement.” Gainesville Postmaster Asks Pres ident to Hear Her State Case Before Committee. WASHINGTON, May 5.—A skin.: , that he att» nd in person and hear h i state he: case to-morrow to the Sen ate Committee on PostofTL < ? and Postroads Mrs, Helen I> Longstvc t, ( who has failed of renomitiatlon hh postmaster at Gainesville, Ga.. M.is , Walking with him In a pleux- addressed an open letter to president Financing a Trip To Town and Back. "Bud” is the nickname of a small boy who lives In West End He Is passionately foijd of the "movies" and baseball. He learned yesterday that motion J pictures of the school day exercises i at Ponce DeLeon would'lie displayed at one of the picture shows down- j town. “Bud” had taken part In these same exercises and he wanted to see, how they looked on a. screen. Ills finances, however, were not in j a flourishing condition, so he went j to his mother to wheedle her out of j carfare and the price of a ticket. | Mother had only five cents, but she j surrendered It on "Bud's” explana- I tion that he didn't mind walking to town and back again. With the nickel in his pocket he fared forth. A happy thought struck j him Why not see if grandma had a * dime? I: was hot and he didn't care I much about walking, anyway. But grandma, who lives Ju»t around the corner, had only a nickel, which ®he gladly surrendered, because she Is a soft-hearted soul and lets her grand children run over her, Just as all good grandmothers do. So "Bud” rode to town, viewed the pictures and enjoyed himself hugely. Then he thought of that long walk home. It didn't look good from any angle Another happy thought struck "Bud.” Why not ate if grandpa had a nickel? So to grandpa's office sped the youngster. “1 happened to be in town, grand pa.” said “Bud,” "and I thought I’d come in and pay you a visit. Mama gave me a nickel and 1 went to the picture show. Grandma gave me kn ot her nickel and that’s the way I got to town. I'm going to walk home. You know. I like to walk. It is so healthy. 1 don't mind walking In the least. Of course, it Is a long way home, but I don't mind " There’s no telling how long this would have continued, but grandpa, who is wise for his years, smiled a knowing smile and gave "Bud” a quarter. 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. Pierpont Morgan had nothing on that boy I nave never yet known him to fail to ‘raise the wind’ when he want ed it.” SULZER KILLS ANTI LABOR ACT. ALBANY. N Y..

I am not reopen ing that fight. Your administra tion has written "Finis” over the Work to which I was briefly Tail ed In the mountains of the State on whose bosom I was cradled. 1 am now considering work on The New York Press and an offer which has been made me by a . veteran of the Union army, either of which would give me an in come larger than I was receiving In ttie Gainesville postofflee. and at the same tirm* my sphere of usefulness would be widened. My desire for you to attend the committee meeting is inspired by faith In the 'man who wrote the “New Freedom;” faith In the courage and high-minded quali ties which l believe will impel him to make a statement to the American people regarding a dis placement by which many of his countrymen believe that America has been discredited. $5,000 Alimony Goes With Macon Divorce MACON.
