The Milan Stock Exchange opened down 2 percent, but many
bank shares were suspended due to excessive volatility meaning
the hit could be even deeper.
The results hit Italy’s sovereign debt, increasing the spread on
Italy’s 10-year bonds to 2 percent, from 1.7 percent on Dec. 1 and
a record low of just over 1 percent last March and April.

Investigators search for clues
in fatal fire, friends mourn
OAKLAND, Calif. — As investigators searched for signs of
a crime in the fire that killed at least 33 in an Oakland warehouse
during a late-night dance party, survivors and teary-eyed friends
of those who perished viewed the charred building from a dis-
tance, placed flowers on several small memorials and embraced
each other to mourn their losses.
Bouquets of sunflowers, single white roses, lilies and carna-
tions were stuck in chain-link fences, votive candles burned on
sidewalks and post-it notes paid tribute to the missing and the
dead in the most lethal building fire in the U.S. in more than a
decade.
Kai Thomas and a group of red-eyed classmates from an arts
high school in San Francisco pressed against police tape Sunday
near the street corner where the “Ghost Ship,” a warehouse con-
verted to artist studios and illegal living spaces, rapidly went up
in flames late Friday, taking the life of a friend.
Three of the boys had been in the cramped and dark building,
Thomas said, but one got separated from them 30 seconds before
someone yelled, “Fire.”
“It was just really smoky and hard to see,” said Thomas, a
high school junior who wasn’t there, but recounted what he had
been told by two others who didn’t want to speak. “They jumped
off the second-floor balcony and ran out.”
Pipeline protesters to defy
deadline, after major victory
CANNON BALL, N.D. — Protesters celebrated a major vic-
tory in their push to reroute the Dakota Access oil pipeline away
from a tribal water source but pledged to remain camped on fed-
eral land in North Dakota anyway, despite today’s government
deadline to leave.
Hundreds of people at the Oceti Sakowin, or Seven Coun-
cil Fires, encampment cheered and chanted “mni wichoni” —
“water is life” in Lakota Sioux — after the Army Corps of Engi-
neers refused Sunday to grant the company permission to extend
the pipeline beneath a Missouri River reservoir.
The Standing Rock Sioux tribe and its supporters argue that
extending the project beneath Lake Oahe would threaten the
tribe’s water source and cultural sites. The segment is the last
major sticking point for the four-state, $3.8 billion project.
“The whole world is watching,” said Miles Allard, a member
of the Standing Rock Sioux. “I’m telling all our people to stand
up and not to leave until this is over.”
Despite the deadline, authorities say they won’t forcibly
remove the protesters.
Beijing faces decision on how to
respond to Trump’s tweets
BEIJING — Chinese leaders face a challenge: How to deal
with Donald Trump.
Weeks before taking office, the incoming American presi-
dent is riling Beijing with confrontation and online statements
that appear to foreshadow a tougher foreign policy toward China.
China awoke today to sharp criticism posted by Trump on
Twitter, days after Beijing responded to his telephone conversa-
tion with Taiwan’s president by accusing the Taiwanese of play-
ing a “small trick” on Trump.
Trump wrote, “Did China ask us if it was OK to devalue their
currency (making it hard for our companies to compete), heav-
ily tax our products going into their country (the U.S. doesn’t tax
them) or to build a massive military complex in the middle of the
South China Sea? I don’t think so!”
That was apparently prompted by China’s response to Trump’s
talk Friday with Tsai Ing-wen, the first time an American pres-
ident or president-elect is known to have spoken to a Taiwan-
ese leader since the U.S. broke off formal diplomatic relations
in 1979.
Michigan to begin recount; legal
fight moves to Pennsylvania
Presidential candidate Jill Stein’s fight to force presidential
recounts in three states focuses today on Pennsylvania, where
her Green Party is seeking an emergency federal court order for
a statewide recount, and Michigan, where a federal judge has
ordered a hand recount to begin by noon.
The recount is underway in Wisconsin.
President-elect Donald Trump narrowly defeated Democratic
candidate Hillary Clinton in all three states. The recounts were
not expected to change enough votes to overturn the result of the
election.
Stein says her intent is to verify the accuracy of the vote. She

Supreme Court takes up cases
about race in redistricting
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court is taking up a pair of
cases in which African-American voters maintain that Southern
states discriminated against them in drawing electoral districts.
The justices are hearing arguments today in redistricting dis-
putes from North Carolina and Virginia.
The claim made by black voters in both states is that Republi-
cans created districts with more reliably Democratic black voters
than necessary to elect their preferred candidates, making neigh-
boring districts whiter and more Republican.
A federal court struck down two North Carolina districts as
unconstitutional because they relied too heavily on race. In Vir-
ginia, a court rejected a constitutional challenge to 12 state leg-
islative districts.
The justices have frequently considered the intersection of
race and politics. In 2015, Justice Anthony Kennedy joined the
four more liberal justices to order a review of Alabama legisla-
tive districts. Justice Stephen Breyer wrote for the court that the
Alabama legislature and the federal court that ruled on the plan
had taken a “mechanically numerical” view, instead of trying to
figure out what percentage of black voters were needed to elect a
candidate of their choice.
TOKYO — Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said today
he will visit Pearl Harbor with U.S. President Barack Obama at
the end of this month, becoming the first leader of his country to
go to the U.S. Naval base in Hawaii that was attacked by Japan in
1941, propelling the United States into World War II.
Abe said he would visit Hawaii with Obama on Dec. 26 and
27 to pray for the war dead at Pearl Harbor and hold their last
summit meeting before Obama’s presidency ends.
“We must never repeat the tragedy of the war,” he told report-
ers. “I would like to send this commitment. At the same time, I
would like to send a message of reconciliation between Japan
and the U.S.”
Earlier this year, Obama became the first sitting U.S. presi-
dent to visit the memorial to victims of the U.S. atomic bombing
of Hiroshima at the end of World War II.
Children who lived through
Pearl Harbor attack remember
HONOLULU — In some ways, it could be any class photo
from the 1940s. The sepia-toned image shows 30 fifth-graders
— 26 girls and four boys — at Thomas Jefferson Elementary
School in Waikiki. Most are smiling, some look stern. A few have
no shoes.
Yet this picture is different in one striking way: Each child is
holding a bag containing a gas mask, a sign of how war had sud-
denly broke apart the routines of their adolescence on Dec. 7,
1941.
Three of the students, now in their mid-80s and all friends
who have kept in touch over the years, reflected recently on the
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor 75 years ago and the mark it left
on their childhoods.
Joan Martin Rodby remembered the carefree walks to school,
and her family building an air raid shelter in their yard. Florence
Seto, who is Japanese-American, recalled sharing ice cream with
Rodby, and being worried that her family would be taken away.
Emma Veary reminisced about her days singing, and her fam-
ily covering the windows at night so Japanese pilots couldn’t use
the light of homes to guide them.
Italy hit by market volatility
after referendum defeat
MILAN — Italy was plunged into political and economic
uncertainty following voters’ resounding rebuke of Premier Mat-
teo Renzi’s proposed constitutional reforms.
Renzi announced he would quit following Sunday’s refer-
endum vote, in which 60 percent of voters rejected his reforms
and signaled they wanted a change in political direction. Renzi
is expected to hand in his resignation to President Sergio Mat-
