II only wish that the fifth column
everywhere In the hemisphere was
as weak as it is in my country" he
told q press conference soon after
his arrival here on an oflcial mis-
sion designed to step up Mexican
American collaboration on war pro-
duction.
The Mexican government has
taken drastic measures to make
any nth column elements there
"powerless," the Foreign Minister
declared. Unfortunately" he add
ed, ut is very strong in some Of the
other American countries.
The greatest task we have for the
moment is to keep under close OBJ

SAN FRANSISCO, March 81
The Army today ordered 5000 Japa-
nese residents Of the Los Angeles
harbor district to vacate by noon,
Pacific war time, April 5.
They must eyacuate TWO pre-
acribed zones there and go to the
new assembly center at the Santa
Anita race track, pending their
removal.
This movebent will bring to more
than 5000 the total Of Japanese
citizens and aliens alike-cleared
from the Los Angeles area.
The Army previously ordered all
persons of Japanese ancestry cleared
from Bainbridge Island, opposite the
Bremerton Navy Yard In Puget
Sound.
S2l Is Maximum Wage.
Meanwhile two Federal agencies
announced that no Japanese eVac-
uated would receive a greater net
cash wage than $21 minimum
month paid American soldiers.
While emphasizing that the Gov
ernment had not determined how
much 1t expected to pay evacues
put to work to further the war
effort, the War Relocation Author
ity and the Wartime Civil Control
Administration added:
However, this much is deter
mined: Under present conditions
the minimum net cash wage OF the
American soldier, s21 a month, will
he the maximum net cash wage OF
evacuated persons working on public
projects for whom subsistence and
housing are provided"
Seek Greatest Production.
The w. r. A. and the w. c. c. A.
acknowledged inquiries concerning
the rate of pay proposed for evacu-
ated aliens. They said, however,
that "the most important task after
evacues have been removed from
military areas is to make 1t possible
for them to perform work that con-
tributes the maximum to the war
production effort.
"The people being evacuated pos
seSs a wide range OF useful skius
and abilities that should not be
allowed to go to waste at time
when the work of every person
counts so much.
ITO put evacues at really useful
work as soon as possible requires
a great deal of careful policy making
and planning In which wage con-
siderations play an important part"

The pulsating tempo of the Samba ushered in another 20th Century Fox hit, That Night in Rio,' at the 20th Century Theatre last night. There were doubts whether the studio could repeat the success of Down Argentine Way" but as this latest musical extravaganza was unreeled, all doubts were dispelled. It's even greater!
 Catchy tunes by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren, exciting dances by Carmen Miranda and her Sam ba stepping sirens (Carmen inci- dentally is playing her first full length role in an American film, clever characterization by Don Ameche, and the alluring appeal of Alice Faye in daringly anus ing story, make That Night in Rio" one of the seasons best entertainment bets.
