To Whom It May Concern:

Dr. Yamato Ichihashi is preparing a pamphlet on the Japanese
question on the Pacific Coast. I wish to say in his behalf that he
is entirely competent to give a just and thorough treatment of this
subject. He is a graduate of Stanford University, where he was
for a time assistant in the Department of Economics. He spent
two years at Harvard University, where he was appointed Henry
Bromfield Rogers Memorial Fellow. He has a very thorough
knowledge of America, and American conditions, as well as of
the purposes, ambitions and resources of his own country, and his
essay should be of the greatest value in bringing about a better
understanding where there is every reason for friendship and
none whatever for suspicion and enmity.

Very truly yours,
DAVID STARR JORDAN.
