The court decided that such state laws should be invalidated and the prohibition on teaching foreign languages ​​in primary schools should be lifted. The state funded the purchase of land and resold it to individual farmers in the form of yearly weaving prices to reward individual farmers.

Spokesperson of the Shanghai Office of the Japanese Embassy, ​​Minister of Intelligence Hirota, at 3:00 p.m. yesterday (26th), at the regular meeting of the Chinese journalists corps in this city, he made an announcement on the amendment to the recent US Senate meeting to restrict Chinese immigration. Opinion. Firstly, the Chinese Immigration Act, one of the US government’s Chinese Exclusion Acts, was cited. It began in 1882 and was officially passed by the US government in 1923. It stipulated that unnaturalized Chinese were prohibited from entering the country. Even if those who request entry due to special reasons, it is stipulated that the number of immigrants from each country should not exceed the amount for China, so only 107 people are allowed to enter each year. At the same time, it also restricted Japanese people from going to the United States. Therefore, the Japanese government once lodged a serious protest. The Japanese ambassador to Washington, Masao Uehara, sent a note to the US government. As a naturalized American, one should have the right to enter the United States. Otherwise, this inferior treatment is a great insult. The Japanese government regrets this. However, the friendly relationship between Japan and the United States must continue to be maintained. The improvement, if this regulation is followed, will cause major consequences in the future, which I cannot predict. When the United States received this protest, instead of making improvements, it used its usual style of protesting that the words of the protest text had caused major consequences, believing that Japan was intimidating the United States, and even asked the Japanese government to recall its ambassador to Washington. At that time, the Japanese people aroused great anger over this issue, and after repeated protests, they were confronted with strong words from the United States, which became more and more unresolved. Therefore, the outbreak of the Great East Asian War, this immigration bill, can also be regarded as an act. main reason. The insults we have felt in the past should be thoroughly calculated and resolved in this war victory. Regarding this time, US Senator Kenetti proposed to amend the Chinese Immigration Act at the meeting table, which is actually an expedient measure for the United States during the war. Considering its intentions, Gaimei knows that the lack of material aid to Chongqing has aroused disgust from the Chongqing side, especially at present, Chefang has a tendency to break away from the anti-axis countries, so the United States will use its usual tricks to amend the immigration bill, hoping to Ease, and win over Chongqing. According to the standpoint of the Chinese, it is not only the United States that restricts Chinese immigration. That is, Britain and British territories such as Canada, India, Australia, Malay, South Philippines, and Central and South America, etc., and the United Kingdom passed a bill prohibiting Indians from owning land in the South Philippine Federation. This is a bill that excludes Indians, showing that both Britain and the United States It is a disgrace to the East Asian nation to underestimate it. Therefore, the cooperation between Chongqing and the United Kingdom and the United States will definitely not achieve the final goal. The Chongqing side's attitude of opposing the cooperation among East Asian nations is really a mistake of the Chongqing side. And this U.S. immigration bill is not just a problem to deal with the Chinese, but a problem for the hundreds of millions of East Asian people. All East Asian nations should stand up and fight. Therefore, the United Kingdom and the United States look down on East Asia, not only China and Japan, but also the people of all East Asia should unite to expel the evil forces of Britain and the United States in East Asia.
