1u|eIake japanese
Quiet as Soldiers
Install Firm Rule
BY the Associated Press.


TULELAKE, Calf, Nov. g.
Tanks, armored cars, machine guns
and fixed bayonets ruled the $4,000
Tulelake Japanese with firm
hand today in the wake Of Amer
ica's first serious internment camp
uprising of the war.
This huge segregation center for
those proved disloyal to the United
States, or suspected of being so,
came under full Army control
Thursday after another outbreak OF
violence in which 20 rebellious Jap
anese and at least one civilian were
injured.
The War Relocation Authority in
desperation had asked military aid.
The only show of organized dis
obedience was broken up by tear
gas. Witnesses said that late yes
terday, when a group Of japanese,
estimated variously at $50 to 1000,
formed apparently for a confer
ence, soldiers effectively used tear
gas TO disperse them.
The Tulelake camp, in the so-
lated bottom lands OF far Northern
California, has been q trouble spot
for the WRA almost since It's in
ception. For a year and q half
there has been smouldering revolt
here, with strikes, riots, beatings
and vandalism, and finally an out
right bid for control last Monday.
The troubles came to head with
the arrival Of thousands of Jspa-
nese transferred here from Hawaii q
few weeks ago.
One impelling reason given for
the disturbances was the desire for
some of the Japanese to create an
incident which would bring their
quick deportation to their home
land.
