Industry good over Nebraska in federal labor report
Lincoln says Nebraska industrial and employment conditions are very satisfactory according to a federal labor report. Unemployment is decreasing and the surplus of skilled and common labor is rapidly absorbed. Road construction and paving demand labor, farm help is strong, and industrial plants are nearly on full employment. Japan plans to file a formal protest to the League of Nations against exclusion measures.

Japan to Protest Exclusion Action After Signing
Tokio reports the privy council will file a formal protest soon after the American exclusion action. A request to the League of Nations at The Hague to review the matter is probable. Foreign Office says America’s nonmembership in the league does not bar its questions being handled. Immigration remains a domestic issue, but exclusion violates the commercial treaty and undermines the gentlemen’s international agreement. The protest will ask that the treaty not be nullified without prior understanding with Japan.
