   Letter TO  THE  EDITOR
TO THE  EDITOR:
   . . .the barbed wire fences
and sentry towers surround-
ing us is a constant re-
proach and travesty on the
American way of life.  Un-
der the Geneva convention,
the enemy prisoners of war
receive more consideration
than the evacuees under the
Constitution and the Bill
of  Rights.
   The valuable contribu-
tions the evacuees have
made to the war effort by
their whole hearted coop-
eration at the time of evac-
uation, by their voluntary
enlistment in the armed
services, by their enthu-
siastic purchases of War
Bonds, by their past rec-
ords and actions speak for
themselves.   Surely, these
indications of American
ideals should   entitle u s
to more consideration than
we now receive.
   I  recommend  that  the
Government show its good
faith with the evacuees by
taking the following steps:
   1. Restore the good
name of the people by a
proclamation that all Jap-
anese aliens are henceforth
to be considered as friend-
ly aliens and by certify-
ing that the evacuees are
a loyal and valuable ele-
ment of our country.
   2.  Restore their self-
respect  by removing the
barbed-wire  fences and
sentry towers....
   3. Institute vocational
training for the youngsters
and rehabilitation program
for the adults.
   4. Abolish the coolie
wage system $12, $16, and
$19 a month and pay the
evacuees on a scale commen-
surate with their status
and dignity as free men
in a free country.
