Japanese Problem Discussed
For Soroptimists By Sheriff

/ In preface he pointed out that
the apancSe had conducted them
selves with exemplary fashion in
this nations, obcying the civil laws
and having fewer of their members
in Jail than any other nationality
With the outbreak of the war. how
ever, a different situation exists he
said, and explained the cooperation
/ of county and city civil authorities
with the FBI and naval and mill
tary intelligence services in the
manner of investigating and round
lng up enemy aliens.
The speaker explained that local
law enforcement agencies do not
take the initiative as they might
interfere with well-laid plans cf
federal officers, but rather act up
on the request of FBI officers.
Prior to the various arrests, I'M
perial Valley had some 1880 Jap
aneSe, approximately 1000 of whom
were American born. About 100 of
the aliens have been arrested, the
most dangerous in this group hav-
ing been arrested few days after
the outbreak of the war as they
had already been under observation
Tn answer to the question Of the
loyalty of the American born Jap
anese the speaker pointed out the
difficulties which Americans face
in determining this point. plus their
natural reluctance to work an in
justice upon loyal citizens
Declaring that America. however
must realize that she is in a war
and that she has a dangerous situa-
ton with which to contend in thi.
regard, the sheriff predicted that
eventually all Japanese will be in
termed for the duration of the war
stating that the loyal japanese APP
preciate that situation.
The dual citizenship of American
Dor Japanese who are registered II
Japan as citizens of that nation, the
many instances of japanese infil-
tration on land adjoining strategic
points, instances so numerous that
they can not possibly be coninci-
dence, the system of arrest by pres
idential warrant and the new, more
satisfactory method of arrest in
limited martial law areas, were
points covered by Mr.. Ware
Instances of Imperial county
japanese who have been disloyal to
this country were cited and N con-
clusion the speaker made a plea for
continued vigilance after the war is
over to maintain the system of
Christian ethics for which this ma
ton stands.

Quoted the meeting, Gehevieve

That san DleganS, some 20-25 OF
them, are cCmi<g 20 Imperial Val
ley for a concert is news indeed
since it is usually the other way
around.
However that many reservations
for tickets the Marriage of Figaro"
comic opera to be presented next
week Thursday by the Nine
O'Clock Opera Co under the aus
pieces of the Imperial Concert club
have been received from the coast
city.
The reason for this is that enc
of San Diego's most talented young
singers Ohm Tyers, is to appear in
the role OF Figaro and as the
opera will not be presented in the
coast city, the admirers of this
splendid young baritone are jour
ncying TO the valley to hear him
Imperial Valley audiences have
heard Mr.. Tyers before in his stu
dent days when even then he was
making a name for himself as a
singer of distinction Some years
ago San Diego State college stu
dents were presented in concert in
the high school auditorium with
John Tyers as the soloist.
Since that time Tyers has been
studying in New York and has
received splendid notices from the
critics He and a group of young
American singers comprise the Nine
O'Clock Opera Co. and when they
presented Figaro" in New York re-
Gently they were greeted with ac-
claim.
Figaro" is sung in English and
its gay, but complicated plot plus
its great music makes it thorough
ly delightful Advertised as "a COM
ic opera in Two parts with music
by Mozart the Nine O'Clock Opera
Cos version of Figaro" has all the
freshness, gaiety, and enthusiasm
of youth.
This is the second concert in the
current seasons artist series spon-
sored by the Imperial Valley Music

REJECTS DEFERMENT
Ever since the peacetlme draft
began, HlloyWo3d has been wonder
ing how much manpoWer it must
give up. and whether the movies
might be considered an essential
industry Now the selective service
director has okayed deferments for
those who cannot be replaced be-
cause of the shortage of persons
of their qualifications and skill and
whose removal would cause a Seri-
Gus loss of effectiveness"
Directors of the Screen Actors
Guild. in a surge of militance
tinged with modesty, now reject this
ruling so far as players are con-
cerned, want it known that actors
have had not part in seeking draft
defement, and declare that no ac-
tor is irreplaceable in Hollywood.
SINE executives already have
started Wringing their hands in
anticipation of the loss of more
big box office names. Others are
pointing out there is nothing in

FLUSTERED CUSTOMS
The government recently set up
rigid censorship for examination Of
all films leaving or entering the
United States, and one of the first
Jobs in this region was inspection
of flock of disjointed stuff shot
in Mexico for a new OrSOn Welles
picture. A cuost2ms officials, unac-
uuainted with Hollywood methods,
got pretty excited when he saw it
and communicated his suspicion to
Washington that the stuff must
contain propaganda or a hidden
code because some of the scenes
had photographed 10 or Is times
almost identically.
He knows now that he was view
ing uncut rushes. just the sort of
material from which movies are

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 24.-Thc re-
moteness of the theatcrs of real
war, and the scarcity of detailed
news frem them will bring more
and more war movies into this
contincpt's theatcrs.
During the first world fracas
there was much more news and
much less ANXIOUS speculation, and
a good deal of the most popular
screen fare WAS escapist stuff A
couple of months ago, checking up
on entertainment history and find
ing confirmed my movie tastes in
England during the past couple of
years, Hollywood began canceling
most of the war pictures cXcitedly
scheduled in December.
Now the titles are being rcstor-
ed. and writer's are retrieving their
notes from where they chuckcd
them. It's clear hat Americans
now are hungry for war pictures
even when they're admittedly fic-
tional.
There hasn't been much news
reel material from the South Pa
cific. either, and this country wants
a better INSTALLATION Of cur forces
in action even if synethic heroes
en- Catalina have to enact a stream
lined version of the Marines de-
fense of Wake Island, or if a
HollyWooden Macarthur and gal
lant gang of extras have to make
