Japs' Dual Citizenship
 Causes Storm In Hawaii
Dispute Clirnaxed By Abe's Election To Island Senate
By NEA Service

By NEA Service
 Honolulu, Dec 13-The 'tdual citi- zenship" issue, a red-hot political pa- taoto in the Hawaiian Islands, broke wide open in this falls election cam paign.
 Chief worry of most Americans living in this vital Pacific defense outpost has long been the dual citi- zenship of many of the islands 16O,- 900 people of Japanese blood, largest racihal group in the 423, ,329 popu- lation.
 So when first generation Japanese Sani Abe ran for the Hawaiian sen- ate this year there was loud outcry against him because he had only re- gently renounced dual citizenship,
 Abe ran as a Republican-and won.
 JAPANESE LAW
 MODIFIED IN 1924
 It used to be extremely difficult for an American citizen of Japa- nese blood to shel his Japanese citi- zenship and be expatriated from Japan.
 But in December, 1924, the Japa- nese government modified it's laws to make things easier.
 Under the new law persons of Japanesge blood born in the United States after December l, 1924, lose their Japanese citizenship unless within IA days their parents report to 8 Japanese consul the fact of birth amid ask that the child be reg istered as Japanese subject.
 Those born before December 1, 1924, may surrender their Japanese citizenship by recourse to the Japa- nese minister of the interior. They must submit copy of their birth certificate and certain other papers.
 Shortly before the election Sanji Abe thus expatriated himself, but the prejudice caused by his previ- ously-held dual citizeiship moved the Hawaiian-Japanese association to appeal to Secretary of State Cor dell Hull.
 Association officers asserted the Japanese laws were still too rigid, wanted Hull to ask that they be modified further. They made this point in their petition: "An appre- citable number of Americans of Japanese ancestry are not ex- patriated from Japan, resulting in tension and misunderstanding and bringing upon the heads of those in- volved much undeserved and un- warranted suspicion"
 The petition continued:
