CARSON   NISEI DOUGHBOY
   DENVER, Feb. 5 -In the
hushed chamber of the Colo-
rado house of representa-
tives today a Japanese-Amer-
ican army sergeant from
Camp Carson pleaded with
members of the legislature
to refrain from enactment
of laws that would prohi-
bit  Japanese aliens  from
owning property.
   Other Japanese-American
soldiers from Camp Carson-- 
two of whom had served for
six months in the Aleutian
islands-were present as 
Sgt.Jimmy Gozawa said that
democracy should be a thing
above race or color or creed.
   Gozawa was inducted in
San Francisco where he op-
erated a flower shop. Mrs.
Gozawa lives in Colorado
Springs.
   He appeared unheralded,
at a meeting called by the
constitutional amendments
committee of the house to
discuss  several  proposed
amendments to the Colorado
constitution which would
prohibit Japanese aliens
from buying or owning pro-
party.
   He pleaded in behalf of
both Japanese-American ci-
tizens and those who may
not become citizens.
   "I am an American by
birth and it means a great
deal to me," he said.
"It is almost impossible
for you to understand this
titanic struggle, sitting
here comfortably.
   "There are thousands of
people who are suffering
and dying-not because they
are black or white, Japanese
or something else-but be-
cause they are believers
in democracy.
   "We are going overseas.
We are going to be hungry.
We are going to be scared.
Many of us are going to be
crippled.
  "We are not asking for
special privileges. We are
only asking for a chance
to show that we do believe
in democracy, that it is
dear to us.
   "Please give us hope
that our loved ones here
will be taken care of."
