 VOTE AGAINST RAISE
BALTIMORE, Nov. 16-Twelve

BALTIMORE, Nov. 16-Twelve thousand building trades workmen of this city have declined an ad- vance in wages from 90 cents so one dollar an hour.

TOKYO, Nov. 16-Marquis Oku- ma, former premier of Japan and still one of the foremost men of the nation, made a statement today in which he attacked the California plan to exclude Japanes from America by treaty. He pointed out that Japanese immigration has been restricted by voluntary agreement between the two nations and declared that be- cause restriction is prejudicial to Japan's prestige, any effort to make the restriction statutory would be an act of infidelity to Japanes Ameri- can friendship.
 He said further that if Japan's appeals fail, there remains only recourse to force. He pointed out that the Japanese government de- sired a solution of the problem, fearing delay and complications of the question might lead to an out burst of self-sacrifcing patriotism for which the Japanese people are noted.
