here this week.

A. l.. Wirin of the Ameri-

The issue before the court
concerns not only the ques-

but whether the renunciants
are stateless or Japanese sub
.iects if not American citizens.

In Nisei Case
Gl's Fioncee Loses
U. S. Citizenship By
Voting In Jopon

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, JAM.
10.-The American Civil Lib
critics Union of Northern Cal
ifornia recently was asked to
intervene in the case of a
Nisei CT now in Japan whose
American-born Japanese fl
ancee lost her American citi-
zenship by voting in a Jap
anese election.
a letter stated:
Under normal conditions I be-
lieve one could usually say that
a person who voted in foreign
election was exercising foreign
allegiance hardly in keeping with
American citizenship. But the re-
cent elections in Japan were held
under anything but normal condi-
tions.
THE japanese were strongly
urged to vote by Macarthur and
he?He many of the Nisei T..
though mistakenly, felt that they
were being good Americans in
following MacArthur's desires in
the matter.
I'm their cases, there was I'M
doubtedly a great deal of duress,
whether real or fancied. The ex-
tent of Japan's new democracy
may be seen in the attitude of
many of the local ward office
which made the people think that
if they didn't vote they'd lose
their food rations.
80 what with one thing and
another many of the Nisei (who
were stranded in Japan during the
war; did vote and +. at least UNI
der the present law, cannot hope
to return to the States = many

Gift Of The Magi

To you
Oh tired peoples of an anxious earth,
bear priceless gift,
Wrapped with the dark paper of fear,
Tied with the bright ribbons of hope
And sealed with an unanswered question
Lo from the dark CESSATION of centuries
1 deliver the miracle of the atom
Hiroshima.
And there flash brighter than day,
And a roar louder than death,
And the city shuddered with vomt of blood
=
Nagasaki.
And the poisonous mushroom of destruction
Smothered the bobbing fishing fleet
And stilled the small voices of children
Lo, bring you
The atom, embryo of shining cities
Greater than all the Hiroshimas
Circumscribed to the plush measurements
Of coffin.
l bring you the atom
And question
