Navy Is Drafting Act
To Give Guamanians
Citizenship Rights
~ the Assccioted Press

Action is being taken by the United
States Navy toward getting citizen
ship and home rule for the natives
of Guam, wards Of this country for
the past SO years.
A special committee report made
public yesterday disclosed that an
organic act for Guam is now being
drafted by the Navy for submission
to Congress. Included in the pro-
posed act will be a provision for
citizenship for the islands $4,000
inhabitants, Assistant Secretary OF
the Navy w. John Kenney told
reporters.
/. Although Guam has been United
States possession for half a century
the natives have not been able to
make their own laws. The Navy
has controlled the island.
Now the aircenter of the Western
Pacific, it is expected to become a
main stop in round-the-world air
travel.
Congress would have to approve
the organic act, but in view of Navy
support for the measure, passage is
believed likely, though not neces-
sarily immediate.
A Is per cent wage increase for
the low-paid Guamanians, whose
scale is fixed by the Navy, depends
on 194s appropriations, Mr.. Ken
ney added.
A report on the civil governments
of Guam and American Samoa,
made by a three-man civilian COM
mittee was released yesterday by
Secretary of the Navy Forrestal.
Mr.. Forrestal said he concurred
in the committees recommendation
for citizenship and the need for an
organic act for both Guam and
American Samoa
"It is hoped" Mr.. Forrestal said,
that an organic act can be sub
mitted to the Congress in the very
near future
The act will include a modified
bill of rights and give law-making
and judicial power to the natives.
Guam, 20o-square-mile outpost
in the Far Pacific. became Ameri-
can territory after the Spanish
American War and because of its
defense value was assigned to Navy
rule.
