California Governor Hiram W. Johnson signals he will sign the alien land bill after sending Secretary Bryan a lengthy reply defending the measure.

The governor notes the issue spans constitutional rights, state welfare, and international treaties, with August 10 as the anticipated enactment date and a possible referendum check.
