Excerpt from Japanese in California: Statement of Hon. James D. Phelan, of California, Before the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization, House of Representatives, Friday, June 20, 1919 So I think we can now talk on this subject in a perfectly free way, whereas during the last three years and during the pendency of the war I have felt a certain restraint, and although I saw the danger in the encroachment upon my State, I did not make any loud pro test, because we were associated with Japan, among the other powers, in making a war against a common enemy. I just want to clear the atmosphere and say that there ought to~ be plain talking at this time. There is no need of giving offense. I was asked the other day to give an interview to two or three leading papers in Japan by their correspondent here and I gave it to him, and he said I could release it in 48 hours, so far as he was concerned, as he was going to cable it to Tokyo, and I would be very glad to give it to the committee for its record. I will not take your time in reading it. The chairman. Without objection, the statement will be placed in the record.
