(C) General De Wits doctrine of
enemy racism inherited by blood
strain. Its paramount effect on
the minds of the imprisoned
citizens.
The major reason for General De
Wits deportation orders is his be-
lief that these citizens, descended
of an eastern Asiatic race, can never
be determined to be loyal Ameri-
cans. His statements of this doctrine
are as follows:
"A Jap is a Jap" ut makes no
difference whether he is an Am
erican citizen or not he is still
a japanese The Japanese
race Is an enemy race and while
many second and third generation
Japanese born on United States
soil, possessed of United States
citizenship, have become 'Ameri-
canized'. the racial strains are
undiluted." But we must worry
about the japanese all the time
until he is wiped off the map -"
General De Wits belief in his
doctrine was clearly apparent to the
Nisei Most alarming stories were
circulated concerning assistance 10
the japanese attack on Pearl Har-
Dor of the people of Japanese blood
strain in the Hawaiian Islands. The
Army high command knew all these
stories were false. 1t knew that no
act of sabotage was committed in
Hawaii with over 30es of its popu-
lation of such blood strain. or in the
area of the Western Defense Com
mand in the months between Pearl
Harbor and the deportation in that
Command. However, De Witt was so
certain that race of such enemy
blood strain must commit sabotage
that he stated: The very fact that
no sabotage has taken place to date
is disturbing and confirming in
dcation that such action will De
taken"
Here was high authority to in

sentiment Of some of the people
of the Pacific Coast, for General

merous bruises on the head and

He said these might have re-

He added, however, that the cut
under the chin is not as ragged as
would be expected under such
circumstances.
