TOKIO, Nov. 18.-(By the Associated Press.)-Some sharp press comment continues to be evoked by the decision of the United States supreme court holding Japanese ineligible for naturalization as American citizens.

The Yomiuri says it is "manifestly the duty of Japanese statesmen to set themselves to righting the unfair treatment meted out to Japanese."

The Hochi Shimbun, on the other hand believes that the decision confirms the exclusion of Japanese from America. This paper adds: "If the Americans persist in their present attitude toward Japanese it is inevitable that racial strife will grow more pronounced."
