instead of turning my radio and
cameras to the police. l left them
with a friend. At the time of eva
cuatiOn, I gave them away, be-
cause I could not take them with
me. Can I claim the loss under

A. Probably not The passage Of

ton too, although it might be ar
gued that the loss occurred as a
result of evacuation and not of the
Attorney Generals regula ions.
4. q. Immediately after the out
break of the war, I turned i'm my
shertwave radio. camera, and
hunting rifle to the local sheriff.
After evacuation I returned to my
old home and found that the
old sheriff had been replaced and
that there were no records of my
things Can I claim for them?
A. No. The contra band articles
regulations were issued by the At
torney General several months be-
fore the evacuation orders we're is
sued Thus. loss of such goods cam
not be said to be reasonable and
natural consequence of evacuation.
The JACL Ado is seeking special
legislation to authorize payment for
such losses. 1t is bill S. 30, and has
passed the Senate and is
now before the House judiciary
Committee. Favorable action is an
