they are willing to amalgamate
with the people among whom they
settle.
"Japan does not want Hawaii or
the Philippines. The present friction
has been greatly ^augmented. how
ever, by the suddenly increased gar
risons and the extensive fortifica
tions erected there.
“Frankly, the Japanese people are
extremely nervous over the possi
bilities of aggression from a na
tion of such power and wealth as
the United States. They do i^ot'
contemplate beginning any trouble)
of their own accord.
“There is a strong movement in
Japan for reduction of armament,
because the present imiltary and
naval expanses consume more than
one third the yearly budget and the)
people are burdened with heavy
ta.xes. Any action by the United!
States toward such an agreement
would find a hearty' response in j
Japan, but it must originate with j
your country, because of the rela
tive size of the two nations.”
FINES ARE ASSESSED
ON LIQUOR VERDICTS
Sentences were passed on five per
sons this morning in the United |
States District Court by Judge Fred
M. Brown, convictions of violating

fined, the former $750 and costs,
and the latter $1,000 and costs.
Judge Brown stated this was the
sentence of the commissioner’s court
and he would re-assess the same.
In the case of Otto Haering and
the Alaska Beverage Company, both
entering a plea of guilty to manu
facture of intoxicating liquor, the
remaining counts of a grand jury in- j
lictment being dismissed, both were
fined $1.00 and costs by Judge Brown.

of having intaxieating liquor in his
possession, was fined $500 and costs.

cussed by Debs and fully approved,
according to Mr. Branstetter.
Upon one matter alone, that of
picketing the White House immedi
ately, was /here some question and
upon Debs’ suggestion, is w;}s de
cided to hold the matter of picket
ing in abeyance.
Th£ motto adopted for the am
nesty drive is "Let's get them all
out,” and the determination to work
for the release of all political pris
oers was emphasized by an incident
that Mr. Branstetter learned of in |
Atlanta. He said that Joseph M.
Coldwell, old time Socialist party
worker, and espionage prisoner, was
twice informed that the prison par
ole board was willihg to recommend
him for a parole. Coldwell, how
ever. refused to permit them t) rec
ommend him for parole.
“While 'Gene is ia,’’ he said. "I
will not voluntarily go out.”
Mr. Rranstetter said that Mr.
Debs looks well, and is in excellent
health and good spirits.
"’Gene was never in the ‘hole’,”
said the Socialist executive, nor did
he suffer any personal mistreat
ment.”
Speaking of the matter of the
campaign, Secretary Branstetter
said that the other plans except
White House picketing are being
vigorously pushed, and they will not
be changed on account of the crit
icism that they are intended to in
timidate the President or excite an
tagonism on behalf .of otherwise
sympathetic persons.
Constitution Quoted
“It must not bo forgotten," Brans [
tetter continued, “that the right of.
the people peaceably to assemble J
and petition the government for re-|
dress of their grievances is a part
of the Constitution, and most sa
credly cherished. The attempts on
the part of our opponents and some
of our misguided friends to construe
the peaceable exercise of this fun
damental right as something revo
lutionary and lawless is not compli
mentary to the administration and j
it shows a lack of confidence that
the administration intends to do the
right and proper thing in the mat
ter of political prisoners.
“Since when has a petition to
Congress become an unpatriotic or a
lawless act? Since when is it dis
respectful or discourteous for Amer
j lean citizens to come to the seat of
their government with personal re
(luests upon their congressmen and
; senators for redress of grievances?
j To say that the proposed demon
stration with the picketing feature
eliminated, will excite antagonism
in administration circles and cause
them to hpsitate or refuse to do an
act of justice to which they are
committed is to place them in ex
actly the same category as the dis
graced, despised and discredited
Wilson administration, whose policy
was that in order to get any con
sideration in any matter citizens
were to debase themselves before
the President. We do not belive
that this spirit animates the in
coming administration."
View of Administration
"We expect the new administra
j tion to he reactionary in many pa*
tieulars,” said Branstetter, speaking
| for himself, his committee and for
Debs, "we expect that it will op
j pose many just demands of the or
ganized workers, and the wishes of
the people generally, but we do not
believe that they are going to deny
the right of petition or to consider
it, as did the Wilson entourage, in
sulting and presumtuous. on the
party of any group of citizens to
make their wishes known.
“Amnesty committees are being
| organized in every part of the coun
I try, and it is certain that the dele
gations that will come to Washing
i ton will number many thousands,
, from scores of cities."
