Roosevelt Urges Congress to Hear Metcalf Report on San Francisco Exclusion
President Roosevelt forwards Secretary Metcalf’s summary detailing San Francisco’s push to exclude Japanese students from white schools, the 1908-1909 boycott of Japanese restaurants, and related racial tensions. The document argues for state action, notes widespread California support for law and order, and warns that federal intervention would be used if the city fails to protect Japanese residents and property.
