President Declines to Make July S a
Holiday Japanese Leaders Ap
preciate Friendship of

Washington. Senator Norrls Is ap
parently going to resume In the senate
the light he started In the house
ngalnst legislating by force. That was
the kind of wnrfare ho waged against
the old Cannon regime, and It seems
that he regards the methods being
used by President WIIbou In urging
currency legislation upon congress In
much tho same spirit. He declared
jthut "extreme boss rule" had charac
terized currency preliminaries thus
far, and that he was strongly opposed
to It.
Japan Continues Friendly.

Yamamoto, addressing a meeting of
Inlluentlal business men nnd financiers
declared that he appreciated, with ref
erence to the Callfornln question, that
the earnest efforts of leaders had re
sulted In n sound nnd dignified opin
ion on the pnrt of the public. The ex
isting difficulty he said, was confined
to ono state nnd did not represent the
sentiment of America, nnd justice nnd
humnnity, which ever prevails In tho
United States, combined with friend
ship for Japan, he hoped, would bring
about a satisfactory solution. A few
agitators continue their attempts to
stir up nntl-American feeling. They
posted up additional violent nnd
threatening announcements, which the
police tore down.
