Excerpt from Japanese Immigration and Colonization: Skeleton Brief Hon. Charles E. Hughes, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. Secretary: We present herewith the attached skeleton brief of Mr. V. S. McClatchy, the duly authorized representative of the Japanese Exclusion League of California, upon the subject of Japanese immigration and colonization. Generally speaking, we very heartily approve and indorse Mr. McClatchy's brief. The problem with which it deals is one with which we are personally and intimately familiar; the danger has been brought directly home to us; the menace we think we understand. Our position is taken in no spirit of animosity, or hostility, or race prejudice. It has been made necessary for the protection and preservation of our own. The skeleton brief is filed at this time with you for the reasons stated by Mr. McClatchy. The details contained in it relating to the West are matters of common knowledge there, and we shall be very glad, if you desire it, to substantiate any of them. This skeleton brief will be followed by one very much amplified and much more complete. It is with very great respect that we submit the annexed document. Hon. Charles E. Hughes, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C. My Dear Mr. Secretary: There is attached hereto for your consideration the skeleton brief in connection with the subject of Japanese immigration and colonization, referred to in my letter of June 23. It is urgently requested that you read the points of this brief, even if you have no time for examination of the references and exhibits in connection therewith, before further conferences are held with the Japanese ambassador on subjects discussed therein.
