session.
Message Withdrawn
But yesterday, Macarthur sent
the VFW a message withdrawing
the statement. He said he regret
ted to inform the veterans group
that he had been directed" to
withdraw it.
Since President Truman alone
could have given Macarthur such
orders, it was pretty plain all along
that the directive had come from
the White House.
Ross confirmed that today.
If the hope was to keep Mac
Arthurs statement from becoming
public knowledge it was lost hope.

already been distributed widely to

into the United States without re-
gard to immigration quotas.
The need for such legislation is
as serious today as when such laws
were in effect during the latter days
OF the war and early in the Occupa-
ton.
Il wish to call to your attention
the large number of private bills,
more than a hundred at this time,
introduced during the past several
months in behalf of GIs and veter-
ans hoping to bring japanese nat
ionals here as their wives.
"Only broad legislation giving them
this permission can solve this prob
lem. 1t is one that demands COM
passionate action.
"As long as this nation main
tains occupation forces in other
lands, it should provide legal and
moral way in which soldiers and
veterans stationed in those lands,
sometimes for years, may bring
wives, fiancees or families back
here without regard to immigra-
ton restrictions.
Il know that you are personally
interested in this matter as shown
by a soldier brides bill you have in
PRODUCED during the present session
of Congress. would like to take
this opportunity to ask that you
undertake whatever action you feel
would be appropriate to speed pas
sage Of such legislation
Masaoka pointed out two other
similar soldier brides bills have been
introduced in the House, one by Del.

Sen Russell has said he is not
opposed to the broad detectives of
the resolution. He has been afraid
it might do more than intended. We
have tried to clarity his objection.
and l have high hopes that Senator
Russell no longer will object to the
measure he said
The Walter Resolution passed the
House last June. was reported out
of the Senate judiciary Committee
unanimously in October and will be-
come law only if it meets with no
objection on a call of the calendar.
Meanwhile Masaoka said the
JACL ADO still is seeking to have
the Democratic Policy Committee
permit the resolution to come up for
debate and a roll call vote. Should
the committee schedule independent
action on the Walter Resolution, ii
could pass the Senate by simple
majority vote.
The policy committee has pro-
missed to give attention to the reso-
luton but so far has taken no action
on it.

MANY young Nisei soldiers and
veterans stationed there have met
and wish to marry Japanese nat

In some cases, such marriages
have been entered into, although
they are not recognized by American
courts, nor will the army approve
marriages between soldiers and Jap

This situation has created moral
problem which only immediate legis-

He said the JACL ADO has re-

Japan seeking help in bringing fam

He quoted from some letters such
excerpts as:
'Tf we could be married we
would gladly wait our turn to come

disapprOved because there is no

of whom are married, must either
be separated from their parents or

In his letter to Sen. McCarran,
Masaoka wrote:
Though the Soldier Brides Act
has terminated, there still is SER
