JAPANESE LABOR UNIONS ORGANIZE

SAN FRANCISCO, Saturday, Oct. 21. -- The first step in an attempt to solve the Japanese labor problem on the Pacific Coast was taken here today with the announcement that nine Japanese labor unions, which will affiliate into a separate Japanese labor council, have been formed and that the movement would be extended throughout California, Oregon and Washington.

The action follows closely suggestions thrown out recently by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in a letter to labor leaders here.

B. Suzuki, president of the Laborers' Friendly Society of Japan, who fathered the organization of the Japanese unions, declared that he would have 30,000 Japanese workmen in California members of such unions within a year.
