November 10, 1943___________________PIONEER__________________Page 3 REPEATED TULE RIOTS FORCE INVESTIGATION TULELAKE, Calif., Nov. 7 --Heavily armed troops, some of them veterans of Pacific battle fronts,kept watchful eyes on 16,000 Japanese internees at the Tule Lake segregation cen- ter today, while the first of several investigations got under way to determine the cause and possible cure of repeated uprisings there. The army retained full control,but administrative work at the center still was carried on by the War Relocation Authority which Thursday night called in the troops when a Caucasian guard was beaten and around 500 Japanese invaded the administration area of the project. An investigator for the Dies Committee met today with Lt.Col. Verne Austin, commander of the troops, and representatives of the WRA. In the meantime,members of the State Senate commit- tee on Japanese resettle- ment arrived for hearings tomorrow, and Rep. Claire Engle was en route by plane from Washington. There was increasing evidence the investigations would center around acti- vities of the Buoku-Kai, the so-called Japanese military society described in official records as an arm of the Japanese mili- tary intelligence. Concentration of Buoku- Kai members here apparently was a major factor in the latest series of incidents, which culminated with the army taking full control with tanks, machine guns and armored cars Thursday night. The soldiers apparently did not move into the in- ternees' barracks center itself, but kept that area surrounded. Administrative offices are occupied by troops. BOY SCOUTS AWAIT COURT OF HONOR The third Scout District Court of Honor will be held Dec. 4 at the high school auditorium, announced Ed M. Tokunaga,district scout Commissioner. Board of Reveiw will be held for the last time to- morrow at the Scout office from 6:30 p.m. Counselors for the evening are Ed To- kunaga, Mas Watanabe, Harry Yoshida , and Jack Ito. CALL REPAIRS ON Gl TYPEWRITERS Offices using government typewriters which require repairs are asked to con- tact the property office immediately, according to R. C. Sherman,acting evac- uee property officer. NEW YORK AREA RELOCATEES OFFERED CLOSE ATTENTION Evacuees contemplating on relocating in the New York area are advised to leave for that section now as increased personal at- tention will be given to them, according to a wire received from Mary H. S. Hayes,assistant relocation supervisor of the New York WRA office .
