Japanese menace and birth surge threaten California
An article highlights the growing Japanese immigrant flow to California from 1899 to 1919, its impact on land ownership and births, and calls for a national stance. It notes birth rates rising to 7.82 percent in 1919 and Japanese ownership of irrigated land reaching 458,056 acres, with 1949 projections showing a majority Japanese population if trends continue. It urges elimination of the menace amid political debate and warns of tensions with Japan.
