LOCAL JACL OFFERS ASSISTANCE
IN PROCESSING OF LOSS CLAIMS
Open Nights Set;
First on We'd,
Aug. 10

Several hundred people of Japan

its environs although eligible to do
so, have not yet filed their claims
for losses due to the mass evacua-
ton in 1912. according to a rough
estimate made today by George
Okada. chairman Of the evacuation
claims committee of the. Seattle
JACL chapter
It is for the benefit Of such per-
sons that the local JACL chapter
is holding series of open nights
at the Seattle Buddhist Church. the
first of which will be on Wednes-
day. August 10. Okada stated
A specially trained staff of Nj
sci will be on hand during the open
nights to offer full information
regarding the claims and to as
sist In the processing Of claims.
Although Japanese in California
have gone to considerable trouble
to find out about the filing of claims,
1t seems that people up here have
maintained a lackadaisical attitude"
Okada stated
Il want to stress that it doesn't
matter where you lived before
California, Oregon. Alaska, or any
where else-but If you were eva
cuated and suffered losses caused
by such evacuation, you should file
claim at your present residence.
According to the Evacuation
Claims Act. the claims must be
filed with the Justice Department
by January 2. 1885," Okada added.
A series of six open nights have
been planned by the local JACL
chapter at the Seattle Buddhist
Church, to start at pm. on each
of the nights. The dates for the open

Discrimination Hit
By Rev. Briggs
In Senate Hearing

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug.
(ADC)-"Elemental justice clamors
for the elimination of discrimination
against the people of Japan" the
Rev. Everett F. Briggs, Vice Rector
and Dean of Studies, Maryknoll
College, Lakewood N. j.. told the
Senate Subcommittee holding hear
ipgs on the Judd bill. The Rev. Mr.
Briggs spent considerable time in
Jaran before the war.
at seems to me that IL Is un-
Christian to deny to any deserv-
ing individual entry into this great
land of opportunity which may
well become the last best hope of
mankind.
During the war the jingoes of
Japan used the American discrimi-
nation policy as powerful propa-
ganda weapon. Our racial policy
continues to be a sore spot which
anti-democratic agencies are prob
ing quite successfully in their psyche
logical cold warfare against the
United States. Listen in sometime
on Radio Siberia"
The Rev. Mr. Briggs said eve
have worked wonders in Japan, but
it now remains for us to secure what
we have accomplished there
On the other hand, failure to enact
this legislation would almost surely
wreck the democratic edifice We
have been erecting in Japan at the
cost of so much sacrifice" The Am
erican way, he said is now on trial
in Japan.

THIS THING CALLED TRUTH

quently overlooked. 1t seems to me
that our conceptions of truth, TO,
instance, oftentimes foster prejudice
rather than understanding as one
would intend it.
When truth is taught as absolute
and Inherent, the seeds of intoler-
ance have been planted. I'm this
respect I feel that even the parents
and churches can stand self exami-
nation as teachers of prejudice and
intolerance) When truth is taught
as inherent, then it has to mean
that the way we look at things is
the truth and the only truth. Why
not, truth is visible in the thing
itself.
And when truth is taught as alb
solute, then it infers that somewhere
out in nature there is the truth. All
man has to do is to find it.
Imagine what this type of think
ing may lear to in terms of under
standing other peoples points of
view, particularly, the points of view
of other religions and other cultures.
1t leads to the inevitable conclusion
that people who do not see eye 10

nor the truth, and at best are naive.
1t seems to me that If, instead, we
regard truth as something condi-
tional, that is, truth according to
some point of view Crane of re-
fernce), we would be exercising a
more workable philosophy of life.
Perhaps I feel this way because
I do not know of any way in which
I can confidently ascertain that I
have perceivedthe absolute truth.
Nor am able to see truth inner
emily in the thing itself. I am always
forced to evaluate truth on the
basis of some existing principle or
creed which I have accepted as my
guiding post. And I must remember
that other people may have accep-
ted some other guiding post, and
therefore, may come to some other
conclusion regarding the truth.
FIR example, INV meaningful is it
to say that string is long? Uuless
know the point of view Crane of
reference) of the speaker, I would
not know how to evaluate the des-
cription. The same string could be
thought of as short If compared to
something long, or long if compared
to something short. In other words,
long. It is conditional on the point
it is impossible to say that the
string is, inherently or absolutely,
