TRYING TO AVOID
AFFRONT TO JAPAN
President Coolidge Hopeful That An
i
Arrangement May Be Made to
That End.
Washington, April 25. An ar
rangement with respect to Japanese
immigration which will satisfy those
advocating exclusion and which, at
the same time, will avoid any af-
front to Japan is being attempted by
President Coolidge.
The president is hopeful that the
arrangement can be effected and
with that end in view will continue

J the president would discuss

White House officials wduld not go
so tar as
to say that the president
would veto the immigration, bill now
in conference between the senate
and house, should the proposed ar
rangement fail of acceptance, but
visitors to the White House have
found the executive greatly disturb
ed over the situation resulting from
adoption by congress of the provision
for Japanese exclusion.
Chairman Colt of the Senate immi
gration commission, who was one of
the six senators who voted against
the immigiation bill, conferred with
the president today and laid before
the executive his reasons for viewing
the exclusion provision as unneces
sary, illogical and generally harmful
to American interests.
Senator Colt later attended the
first meeting of the senate and house
tuuiBrees on tne measure, but it was
Ot disclosed whether he carried to'
the conferees any suggestion from
the president. Some supporters of
the bill as it passed the house, be
lieve that by adoption of the non
quota provision of the house meas
ure, a way might be found to satisfy
those advocating exclusion and yet
make the legislation less objection
able to Japan.
The conferees at today's meeting
discussed the bill in a general way
and proposed to take up the various
differences tomorrow.
