GOVERNOR CARTER ON BAND DIFFICULTYn7
'7-11'' UNDER
OHA| TREE

Big crap games continue to be the
vogue around the Chinatown distric;
just the same rs before elcction--no
change in the police system OF laxity.
On Saturday afternoon shortly be.
fore o O'Clock, about forty men and
boys were close participants in game
beneath the big ohai tree in the Kau.
makapili hollow. The game was en-.
gineered by some of the same old
crowd which figures in nearly all dis.
closures of gambling. A watcher was
ON the bluff where he could command
a good view of Bcrotania avenue and
the several approaches. A reporter got
within forty feet of the crowd when
the alarm was given.
Some of the gamesters sprintcd in u
manner to put them in the champion
ship class. The crapsters scattered in
every direction and within minute the
entire hollow and vicinity were aban-
doned.
In the evening n big Chinese game
was running in II second story room of
n building abutting on King street near
the Fishmarket. Chinese watchers
stood on corncrs to give notice of the
approach of police officers. Suffice il
to state that the watchers had no oc.
casion to send an alarm to the players.
But one policeman showed up on that
beat in nearly an hour.

AGITATION AGAINST
TIE JAPANESE

WASHINGTON, Oct. Sit IL be.
coming evident that strong pressure
will be exerted during the next session
of Congress to secure legislation re-
stricting Japanese immigration. The
subject Is already being actively dis
cussed in Washington. 1t is expected
here that the labor organizations on
the Pacific Coast will take the lead in
advocating this legislation, and that
they Will have more or less support
from organized labor all over the
country. Labor conditions in Hawaii
VIII be cited as an illustration of the
contention that II the Japanese con-
tinue to be admitted as freely as at
present they will soon have a practical
monopoly of labor in the Pacific Coast
States
On the other hand restrictive legis-
lation will be opposed on the ground
that 1t would give a serious setback
to the development of American trade
not only In Japan. but In all Eastern
Asia. Those who take this view Iolnt
out that japanese boycott of Amerl-
can goods would not only injure their
sale in Japan and Korea, but also In
China. where Japanese influence is now
becoming more effective than ever be-
fore. President Roosevelt has not yet
made public any statement on tie
question, but ne has let 1t be known in
directly that the administration Will
not favor any legls alton that viii i'm
pose restrictions on japanese imml-
grants that are not imposed on those
from all other countries as well.

other people. They have no cares and
