Method To Be EMPLOYED
Yet Unsettled, Is
Report

TOXIC, Nov. 13.-(By Associat
ed ress.)-Newspapers here report
that the Japanese and American gov
ernments have reached an agreement
in principle relative to the exclusion
of Jaoanese laborers from the Unit
ed States. 1t is asserted, however,
that there is disagreement regarding
methods to be employed.
America is understood to desire
provisions for exclusion embodied in
the treaty, but Japan, it is said, re-
CARDS this procedure as humlliating
and as forming precedent that she
might be forced to follow in treaties
negotiated in the future.
Japan is declared to consider that
measures prohibiting her subjects
from emigrating can be taken only
on her own initiative.
In other respects negotiations are
progressing, it is reported, and once
this point has been settled agreement
may be expected.
