Yen Claimants May Expect Cash
Shortly, JACL-ADC Reports

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. B.
Very substantial payments are ex-
pected to be paid to yen claimants
against the Yokohama Specie Bank,
5umitomo and other institutions
whose property was vested by the
United States at the outbreak Of
the war.
No yen claims, however, are
expected to be paid in the near
future.
This, in substance, was what Ed
ward J. Ennis. special counsel, de-
termined when he, investigated the
possibility of payment Of yen claims
at the request Of the Washington
office, JACL Anti-Discrimination
Committee.
Ennis said: "It appears cry
substantial payments win be made
to yen claimants. such as those
holding certificates Of deposit, who
filed claims OH OF before August q.
1913, because of the large sums Of
money now held by the Office of
Alien Property and the fact that
yen claims are not barred by law"
Ennis warned that mo payments
should be expected in the near fu-
ture."
No decision. he said, has been
reached concerning the rate Of. ex-
change which will be made in pay
ing yen claims in U. 8. dollars, and
no decision is expected for some
time.
Furthermore, institutions whose
assets were vested still are under
going liquidation and the major
portion Of their funds have not
yet been turned over 10 the Office
of Alien Property.
Allowable debt claims against YES
ted financial institutions include
only those of citizens oof the United
States or Philippine Islands, those
OF corporation organized under the
laws of these countries, and "other
natural persons Ennis said other
natural persons" includes aliens
who are and have been, since the
start Of war, residents of the United
States and who were not, during
the war. interned or paroled under
the AlIenF Enemy Act"

Childhood Memories

| be in Schul nearly all day long
with the grown-ups, they were
forgiven if they spent most of the
day outside the synagogue and
came in only for the most import
ant prayers. They couldn't, of
course, indulge in games of quar-
reling or any sort of childish
pranks on this Day of Atone
ment. There was something in the
Yom Kippur atmosphere which
forbade that sort of thing and
no parental restraint was neces-
sary to keep the children we'll
behaved.
Kol Nidre night was not ex-
actly enjoyable you had to sit in
Schul nearly three hours in a
pretty stuffy atmosphere but
yet had it's thrills. All the older,
more pious men wore white
shrouds, while the younger and
less pious wore "taleisim" pray
er-shawls, which are worn at no
evening service except that of
Yom Kippur. When the rabbi
during his sermon would mention
the fact that none of us could be
certain whether we would men,
ton the fact that none of us could
be certain whether we would be
alive next Yom Kippur an awful
wall would rise from the women's
gallery and it took the "Gabbai",

while to restore silence so that
the rabbi could go on with his SER
mon, could again refer to the un-
certainty of our fate during the
coming year, could again cause a
great tear-letting from the wom-
ems gallery and again force the
"Gabbai' to restore order.
Since a child whose age was
below Bar Mitzvah was allowed
to eat something on Yom Kip
pur afternoon, it was his privil-
eye to come home and help him
self to some food from the ice
box. Usually he abused that
privilege, especially with regard
to the chicken which was sup
posed to be eaten by the whole
family in the evening at the end
of the long fast when everybody
was pretty hungry. Usually he
took a much larger piece of chick
en- than he was entitled to. And
anyway, complained the folks,
what business did we have to
touch the chicken? Couldn't we
have taken some bread and but
ter, some fruit and some cake for
our afternoon repast and left the
fowl intact for the evening? How
ever, the folks had to forgive us.
Wasn't this the Day of Forgive
ness?

was enjoyable to children if only
because the long day of prayers
was over, everybody was in a

H A MEMBERSHIP CRUSADE FOR new MEMBERS
TIE CORES pondance
Terminates

The H. B. A. Agency Course con
Quoted by the General Secretary
during the past six weeks with our
agency force, has terminated.
We are happy to state that the
work done by our agents was very,
very remarkable. Our only regret
is that every local president in the
Association could not ia Ike the
course. Until our presidents and
members know the Constitution by
which they are being governed, they
cannot do first class job. In order
to know the law, it is going to take
hard work and hard studying and
yet it pays in great dividends of
having the satisfaction of knowing
the law under which you are being
governed. Nobody can take that
from you that you know. Else
where in this issue and consequent
issues, you will find articles written
by our agents pertaining to this
course.

It has better prepared me IS an
Agent to master the position Of an
Agent. All Agents should be proud
of the idea that was put forth by
the General Secretary. 1t was from
her fertile brain that this idea came.
The course has enabled me to refer
to pages, articles, and sections in
our Constitution and keep abreast
on problems that might arise in the
order; both locally and generally.
| always thought that the Associa-
ton had an efficient General Secre-
tary in the person of Miss Matte L.
Larkin, but now, | know it, because
she has vision and puts it forth in
an effective way. The course has
prepared me to serve the Associa-
ton more efficiently, not only as a
local Agent, but General Agent. No
one is qualified for an Agent who is
not in position to know, teach, and
interpretate the laws that govern
the Association. The course has
caused me to be better informed and
I am grateful for it It would be an
asset to the Association if prospec-
tive Agents took the Agency course
before being appointed. The course
has helped me so much. I wish l
had had it long ago. Under condi-
tons. we agents have done well. But
if the other Agents have made the
that did, we are now
ready to do a herculian task.
