The entire population of this little

the dedication Thursday of a
French American monument to
the World War II heroism of Ame-
ricans of japanese descent.

The LIST battalion, 141st infantry Of
the Seth CTexas) division had
overreached its supply lines and
had been cut off by the Germans
for five days when the 442nd was
called from the rear to effect the
rescue.
Two infantry battalions from the
442nd mounted a frontal assault
almost constantly for the next two
days, climaxirg its drive with an

MODIFY NATURALIZATION LAWS
TO OPEN CITIZENSHIP TO ISSEI.
l7S-PAGE REPORT URGES NATION

WASHINGTON. d. c., Nov. THE Pre-
sident's Committee on Civil Rights, in its 49,
page report just forwarded to the White House,
adopted en- toto the four point recommends
tions designed to insure the future protection of
the civil rights of the Japanese American and
his alien parents, which were made by Mike Ma
saoka national Legislative director of the JACL
Anti-Discmination Committee when he appear
ed before the Committee last spring, the Wash
ington Office of the JACL ADO revealed today.
The Presidents Committee, which made
six broad recommendations affecting the civil
rights of all Americans and aliens alike made
four specific ones as they affect Americans and
aliens of Japanese ancestry. It urged ~ re-
view of our wartime evacuation and detention
experiences to prevent any such occurrences as
those which followed Pearl Harbor; (2) satisfac :.
tion of evacuation claims; (3) modification of fe
deral naturalization laws to permit citizenship
without regard to race or color; and (4)repeal of
to citizenship.
In its recommendation calling for review
of our wartime evacuation and detention cxpcl-
fence, the Committee stressed the need of poll
cy which will prevent the abridgment of civil
rights OF any person or groups because of race
ancestry. 1t said 1--WE believe it is fallacious
to assume that there is correlation between To-
yalty and race or national Origin. The military
must be allowed considerable discretionary
power to protect national security in time of
war. But we believe it is possible to establish
safeguards against the evacuation and detention
Of whole groups because of their descent without
endangering national security
The report described the wholesale evacua-
ton of persons of Japanese descent from the
West Coast during the war as 1.-THE most strik-
ing mass interference since slavery with the
right to physical freedom" It recalled that
whom were United States citizens was made
without trial or any sort Of hearing, at time
when the courts were functioning
While admitting it would not be proper or
feasible for the Committee to try to review all of
the facts of the evacuation program, the report
stressed it was disturbed by the implications of
the evacuation so far the future of American
civil rights concerned. 1t added: 'Funda-
mental to whole system of law is the belief
that guilt is personal and not matter of here
dity or association. Yet in this instance no spc-
cifc evacuees were charged with disloyaty, cs-
pionage or sedition. Admittedly in time of mo-
dern total warfare much discretion must be gil
to the military to act in situations where ci-
vii rights are concerned Yet the Committee be-
lieves that ways and means can be found of safe
guarding people against mass accusations and
discriminatory treatment"
