The spirit of existing anti-alien land laws and immigration agreements has been evaded through the employment of legal and other subterfuges to such an extent that the purpose of the meas- urers have been frustrated, Governor Stephens chirged. He referred to the suspension of anti-Asiatic legisla- tion in the State during the Conference at the request of Secretary of State Lansing, but held that de- cisive action was not necessary now. “The Japanese are not of a serville or docile stock.” the letter continued. “Proud of their tradition and history, they brook no suggestion of any domi- nant or superior race.
