The COmmOnWeaI
Backs Judd Bill

WASHINGTON, ID c., April 10
Asserting II Is time the bar sinister
of color is removed from this ma
tons immigration and naturaliza-
ton laws. an article in support of
the Judd bill, HR 1899 appears in
the current april 81 issue of The
CommonWeal
The article, written by Herb Cor
don of the JACL Anti-Discrimina
ton Committee Washington office.
says in part:
The Judd bill - has two major
detectives: The first is To give every
alien legally entitled to reside i'm
this country the right to apply for
citizenohip And second. 70 maze
immigration quotas available to all
Asian and Pacific peoples under the
ma ional origins provisions of the
1924 act.
One of the most encouraging
hings about House action on the
bill was the wholehcarted approval
by Representatives who discussed l.
on the floor Not a voice was raised
n opposition TO The principles OF
The bill
". There is little doubt the
anti-Oriental immigration and nat
uralization laws were largely the
work of the West Coast. and pri-
marily of California. Since the end
Of the war, though. there has been
a surprising change of sentiment
in the Golden State.
California representatives. both
Democratic and Republican. spoke
for the Judd bill in Congress.
II is time the bar sinister
of color Is removed from these dm-
migration and naturalization laws;
time indeed to practice the demo-
crazy we are preaching"

Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Y. Vishinsky turned on his charm
here last night for more than !, 300
guests at a Russian Embassy re-
ception celebrating the 32d an
niversary of the Communist revo-
luton in Russia.
He stood in the receiving line
for more than an hour and a half.
greeting Official, diplomatic and
society guests; and then he
strolled among them, chatting in
formally in an extremely friendly
manner.
Mr.. Vishinsky seemed as much
at home in the role of spreading
charm and talking of friendship
as in his better-known role be-
fore the United Nations as a vitu-
perative assailant of Americans as
imperialists and warmongerers.
He beamed cordially at Under
secretary of State Webb, State De-
partment Counselor George Ken
nan. British Ambassador Sir Oliv-
er Franks, French Ambassador
Henri Bonnet and other oppo-
nents of Soviet policies, who passed
through the receiving line along
with diplomats of Russia's satel-
lites.
Center Of Group.
Twice Mr.. Vishinsky talked
philosophically about interna-
tional friendship with groups of
reporters One Of these discus
sions he put of the record.
After he left the receiving line,
Ia group gathered around Mr..
Vishinsky. He drank q toast to
friendship. using wine-the vodka
was all gone by then-with one
of the guests. Then a reporter for
The Star, who met Mr.. Vishinsky
at luncheon in Naples in 1943.
when he was there as the Soviet
member Of the Allied Advisory
Council for Italy, recalled the
occasion to him as another time
of toasting Allied friendship.
Mr.. Vishinsky smiled and said
that I'VE were friendlier then
closer together-because we were
fighting q common enemy"
Some one remarked that per-
haps the United States and Rus
sia should ind means Of renew
ing their friendship by invading
Mars. 49, -
The Soviet Foreign Minister
promptly wise cracked: But
haven't you heard-Mars is on
our side now"
Questioned on Cooperation.
Later, reporters asked Mr.. Wish
insky what he thought could be
done to restore cooperation be-
tween Russia and the United
States in the absence Of 4 COM
mon enemy.
He spoke about friendship being
stronger than hatred, and the
need for mutual respect among
nations with none putting its
boots in the soil Of another. And
he talked about how international
friendship sometimes falls asleep.
And how it will be time for any
enemies to tremble when Russian
American friendship awakens.
Then Mr.. Vishinsky laughingly
told reporters his remarks should
be of the record because on q
holiday such as the Communist
revolution anniversary people
should not work-"even with their
tongues" 49,
An Associated Press reporter
urged Mr.. Vishinsky to permit
quotation of his remarks about
friendship. But the Soviet For
eign Minister smilingly refused,
Insisting that his words were not
significant; since they merely
echoed what he described as the
