Editor: This is-an ap-
peal'to all people of California to prevent if possible the' Japs returning
to the coast, also to the
BOYS OF THE NAVY to prevent
them from evicting white
people. I agree with the
boys- from the Pacific that
only good Japs are dead
Japs, How do you know
whether they are "loyal"
or not*? They haven't proven they were. Where' are
the ' Americans that they
forgot—pearl Harbor and
our boys that were on the
road, to death also theones
that were beheaded. Can't
we d o s omething ?■
