Testifying before the House Sub
committee on immigration and Ma
turalization, Grew said he believ-
ed the present to be an excep-
tionally favorable time to take
step of this nature" The United
States, he said, no longer has a
general policy of Far Eastern Ex-
clusion, since the Chinese, Filipinos
and natives Of India have all been
made eligible to citizenship. The
retention of our exclusion statutes
thus accentuates the stigma placed
upon those who remain ineligible.
Drawing from his experience as
an envoy to Japan for ten years
prior to and during World War II,
the former ambassador submitted
his reasons why the Congress
should enact the Judd measure.
He thought that there was little
room for disagreement" with the
one provision of the Judd mea-
sure which would extend the pri-
vilege of naturalization to quail
fled legal immigrants Of this
country. "Any immigrant who is
allowed to remain permanently
in the United States should not
only be permitted to seek citizen
ship, but should be encouraged to
do So" he emphasized.
On the second major privision of
the Judd bill, which would allow
the universal use of immigration
qrotas by all people, including those
of tho Far East, he said: "It is my
considered opinion that American
relationships in the part of the
world which this bill defines as the
Asia-Pacific Triangle can never be
expected to become entirely sound
until this country eliminates the
humiliation inflicted by our exclu-
sion laws"
The recent war, Grew pointed out.
has effectively disposed of the con-
tention that the people of the Far
East, especially the japanese. are
not assiinilable and therefore would
not be loyal to the United States
in the event OF war with Japan The
ellen japanese resident of this
country proved himself to be law
abiding and cooperative during the
entire war period. A number served
in vital compartments of our in
tellicence agencies.
"The Nisei proved themselves
as loyal and effective troops, not
only in the European Theater,
but in the Pacific as WELL" he
went on. and rec0unted General
MarshalPs report as Chief of
Staff which singled out the Nisei
442nd combat team for special CT
tation for bravery. He paid tri-
butte to the japanese population
of this country, asserting, 'Tt is
pertinent to point out that one
measure Of fitness of any immi-
grant group is the conduct of
their children. As a matter of
fact, much that is said of the Nj
sci may also be said now Of the
first generation"
Grew stressed that from the
standpoint of U. S. relations in the
Far East, the number allotted to a
given quota is not of primary i'm
nortance but Tho "nlIeStion Is one of

MINE TALKS.
More Sr,ags

AS usual John L. Lewis was min
ing the channels Of possible agree
ment in the latest series Of con-
tract discussions between him and
representative of the soft coal mine
operators.
The explosive the UNIV chief
planted this time was demand that
the operators first guarantee well
fare aid for distressed miners be-
fore they can expect his union to
sign a new contract.
Thus, the Lewis situation" in the
United States was being brought to
the fore again.
Already the possesSor of enough
government injunctions to paper
the den of his Springfield, ILL.,, home,
Lewis received another one before
he would consent to bargain with
the operators on a new 1948-49 con-
tract. (The old contract expires
June 30.)
U. S. District Judge T. Alan
Goldsborough issued the latest in
junction ordering Lewis to bargain
with the Southern Coal Producers
association. The mine chief pre-
viously had refused to bargain with
the association because the IA mem
ber groups were being represented
at the contract talks by just one
man.
However, Lewis bowed to the in
junction and agreed to talk.
In the course of this talk one of
the first things he did was to call
the mine operators "fat cats" and
then wave an arrogant club at them
with these words:
"We assume that you would de-
plore any impairment of your alb
normal income after July l. Such
an assumption would seem to be a
logical predicate for the making OF
a new wage agreement before that
date"
Briefly, it looked as though Lewis
was determined to strike again. De-
prived of one snag, he Immediately
grasped another. AS a result the
first round of contract talks was
fruitless.

DRAFT:
DebatabLe

In the waning days before ad-
journment of congress the senate
had buckled down to the task OF
producing action on a limited re-
vival of the military draft.
The house was waiting only for
the senate to dispose Of the ques-
ton before it's members waded into
the tricky currents of a similar
measure.
Legislators in both houses were
treading gingerly about on the issue,
throbbing with the knowledge that
this is an election year and further
more there are any number OF
American parents ready to offer
material objections at the ballot box
if their boys are called up for mill
tary service.
In the face of all this the senate,
nevertheless, was trying to do some
kind of a job. It's measure pro-
vided for the drafting Of men 19
through 25 in sufficient numbers to
bring the armed services up to their
authorized strength. The bill would
permit 18-year-olds to volunteer for
a years training, thus disposing OF
a universal military training act for
the present.
Among the side issues that arose
during the senate debate was the
old bugaboo of civil rights. After
an abortive two-hour filibuster by
southern Democrats, the senate
voted 81 to 35 to outlaw the poll
tax as requirement for voting in
federal elections so far as members
of the armed forces are concerned.
Actually, it was a minor issue, in
asmuch as most of the seven
southern poll tax states still have
in effect wartime suspensions OF
the tax for members of the armed
services.
Under the senate measure the
draft would be authorized for five
years, but the program is left flexi-
BILE enough so congress each year
could raise or lower both the regu-
lar and reserve forces to meet
shifting world conditions.
Drafted men. after completing
two years of service, would have
to serve in the reserve for five
years or, as a matter Of choice,
volunteer for an additional year in
the regular services or two years
in the national guard.

NON-POLITICAL:
Trunra71's Tour

President Truman's "non-politi-
cal" swing through the West could
be described as non-political only
in the sense that Mr.. Truman, as
a candidate for Democratic re-
nomination, had jettisoned many OF
the rules of standard party poll
tics.
It was lone wolf fight he was
waging-going over the heads OF
party leaders to talk directly to the
people. And most of what he had
to say to the people concerned the
Republican congress and what he
termed its inaction.
In Chicago, speaking before the
Swedish Pioneer Centennial asso-
citation, he hammered out a plat
form upon which he can be expect
ed to base his chances for re-
nomination. 1t was a platform for
more and better democracy"
From Chicago the President, with
his encourage, headed for the heart
of the farm belt. Omaha, Neb., and
it was there that he was set sharp
ly back on his heels.
He continued his 1ambasting OF
the Republican congress-this time
concentrating on COP farm policies
in a speech at the Ak-Sar-Ben
coliseum in Omaha. Fantastically,
in the coliseum which has a ca
pacity of 10000, fewer than 1000
persons were present to hear Mr..
Truman talk.
This phenomenon was variously
interpreted. Some said the Presi-
dents box office appeal had wilted.
Others claimed the Nebraska Demo
cratic machine had done a miser-
ably inadequate job in promoting
his appearance.
Probably closer to the truth was
the plain fact that the "non-po-
Iticar' label of the presidential trip
had backfired seriously. He made a
political speech and had expected
to get a crowd of friendly Demo-
Gratis to fill the hall for the occa-
sion.
But the White House previously
had told the Democratic organiza-
ton in Omaha to lay off the po-
itical hoop-la, and the organization
acted in compliance with those in.
structions. Payoff came when no.
body else showed up to fill the ach-
ing void which the Democrats Gre
ated by staying away.
1t was an unpleasant blow for
the campaigning Mr.. Truman and
one that might produce grave po-
litical repercussions.
But the President was resilient.
And in a more or less happy frame
Of mind he left Omaha on his train
and rode away into the setting SIN
In search of happier hunting
grounds.
