Walter Bill, Hawaii Statehood Head
Ado Agenda; Congress Meets Monday

tention of supporting a new Walter
Resolution.
If he does, a new bill should move
quickly through the Senate pro-
viding it meets no unexpected OPP
position
The measure which will be re-
introduced by Rep Walter will SIM
ply state no person shall be denied
the right to petition for naturali-
cation because of race or ancestry.
Chiefly affected will be some
$4,000 japanese aliens i'm the UNI
ted States and Hawaii; about
5000 Koreans and a handful of
other southeast Asians and Paci-
fic island peoples.
The JACL Ado also will continue
its support forf Senate approval of
two House-passed bills granting
statehood to Hawaii and Alaska.
The administration has an
nounced its intentions of pushing
for favorable action in the last
meeting of the 8lst Congress.
Although Senate action for state
hood is considered somewhat slim,
an ADO spokesman promised the
organization would do all in its
power to encourage the immediate
approval of statehood. especially for
Hawaii.
He termed statehood for the is
lands long overdue
The Ado has had as one of it,

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Nov. q
6ADC)-Two major tasks are high
on the agenda of the JACL Anti
Discrimination Committee when
Congress reconvenes next Monday
First is the reintroduction of the
Walter Resolution to eliminate race
in naturalization. Second is state
hood for Hawaii
Congressman Francis 4. Wal
ter ID, Pa, who introduced the
Walter Resolution last year. is
expected to reintrOduce the same
measure i'm the House during the
first week of the lame duck"
session.
And again, as earlier in the 8ls
Congress, quick and WholehearteG
approval is expected for bill which
would for the first time in Ameri-
can history, allow all immigrants to
seek naturalization regardless O.
race or creed
There is an excellent possibility
the Senate will act with rather more
speed than customary for the upper
house on the naturalization mea-
sure.

that she conforms to a common
pattern of training arms and equip
ment with us. Any force allowed her

Provisions of merely defensive YEA
pons invites attack and leaves the
defender with insufficient fire po-
wer to repel an invader.
A beginning should be made with
trainer planes, light naval forces;
and infantry and armored units
with ancillary services. Even if the
total force be limited to 100000 men
voluntarily recruited it should still
be balanced force able to take the
field and wage war. The Air Force
should be given gradually modern

protect itself with its own sea air

It will take all of five years to
achieve this under allied direction
and control; but when completed
Japan would possess forces able to
play their part against aggression
but not large enough-though ba-
lanced and self contained to ini-
tate a war of aggression. 1t is true
that such a force because it would
be a balanced force trained for of

would be capable of expansion to

come ambitious enough to set out
on such a path.
In my view this is an acceptable
risk for a very simple reason. Virile
people do not accept defeat in the
field as the last word in their nat
ional story; they do not accept the
victory of conqueror as the plat
form on which to rear their future
existence Germany did not accept
that after World War One. Neither
England nor America would have
accepted defeat in the field as the
last word in their histories.
Will Rise Again
Nations which accept defeat be-
come small Powers and are kicked
around by the Great Powers which
succeed them. The Japanese are a
hard working people; virile ano
with many sterling qualities. Nc
one can keep them down for good
1t is not the policy of the Occupa-
ton to do this Anyone who believes
they can be kept down for good de-
ludes and deceives himself = the
verdict of history is against him.
Japan will rise again because she
is prepared to work hard. The most
we can hope as we try and look so
years ahead is that as she rises
she will be sobered by the lessons
of the late war will guard jealousy
the freedom we have trained her to
enjoy; and that as she rises she
does so in friendly association with
America and the British Empire
and places her trust in a fair deal
from us; in equality with us in the
United Nations.
This as I see it is the only road :;
the sooner we commence to walk
it the better for with a re-armed
Japan as friend and ally we shall
restore the balance in the East and
confound the knaviSh tricks of the
Russians-and that is the principle
problem to which we have to find
an answer.

BY WILLIAM COURTENAY


The first result accruing from
any great world war is to throw
| the world out of balance. Peace is
always maintained among the Great
Powers by a delicate balance be-
tween opposing forces and where
that balance is preserved, peace
ensues. When it is disturbed and
former Great Powers become weak
ened, the road lies open for the
predatory to fall upon the weak
and create an unbalanced Worlo.
] in which no one is safe.
The world bscame unbalanced
after the late war with the defeat
of Germany in the West and Japan
in the East. As we now see, for the
future peace of the world we must
build up Germany as a buttress
against Russian communism in the
west and help Japan to her feet
to maintain the balance of power
in the east.
Time Ripe
Not until these tasks of states
manShip are recognized as essential
to world peace and not until they
are accomplished will the Russians
be contained within their own Dor
ders and will other nations sleep
less uneasily in their b5ds.
Therefore whether some nations
like the idea or not the time is ripe
to make peace with Japan; to trea
her generously for she has suffered
much and has already been shorn
of all her empire; to raise her up
as friend and ally of the freedom
loving peoples; and to arm her both
for her own defense and to enable
her to play her part in the United
Nations as a member state.
We cannot on the one hand teach
her the principles of democracy as
we have been trying to do during
these first five years of peace, and
then deny her the right to self
defense and the right to equality
of membership in the United Ma
tons. The two policies are contra
dictory Treat with your enemy
whilst he is in the gate" is a good
and wise Christian principle. If we
do not treat with Japan while she
is in the gate" and we have oppor-
tunity we may lose it. Others may
lure her into a different camp.
Now it is true, of course, from
British and American standpoint
that the world became off balance
because German and japanese mill
tarists were determined to wage
war and set upon the road of con-
quest, Would it not therefore be
fair to ourselves that they should
now share something of the burden
OF restoring balance to the world?
Ought we to bear all this burden
ourselves? And can be afford the
luxury of such a viewpoint when
we consider what the Russians with
their vast hordes are planning ag-
ainst the freedom of Christian
lands?
For Peace Treaty
l therefore am solidly on the side
OF a quick peace treaty with Japan:
OF just and generous peace: of a
reconciliation; of arming Japan for

u. N. Gets New Plan
To Protect Shrines
BY the Associoted Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Dec. 7.-Swe-
den launched a new move yester-
day for U. N. supervision over
Jerusalem's religious shrines.
A detailed draft resolution filed
in the General Assembly closely
resembled Dutch plan
passed over without action by the
Assembly last December.
AS a concession toward ending
the deadlock, caused by the re-
fusal of Jordan and Israel to agree
to international control, the new
Swedish plan would exclude from
U. N. supervision purely Moslem
holy places controlled by Jordan
or Jewish shrines controlled by
Israel.
Sweden proposed that a non
Arab, non-Jewish U. N. commits
sioner, appointed for three years
have responsibility for protecting
holy places. The Swedish plan
also provided for gradual reduc-
tion of Jordan and Israel forces
"to normal peacetime require
ments."

Russ Claim They Can Get Electricity
 From A-Energy

MOSCOW, P)-A Soviet pro- lessor declared today that Russia's scientists already hove discovered a means of transforming atomic energy directly into electricity.
 Atomic energy specialistV. Col dubstov claimed in the Literary Gazette the Soviet science is far ahead of the United States in the development of peaceful uses for atomic energy.
 Soviet scientists" he stated, "have found other technological schemes and other technical pos abilities for the peaceful use of atomic energy-transforming it into heat or electricity.
 Soviet science has progressed by a great margin ahead of for eign science in the field of atomic energy"
 Direct conversion of atomic energy into electrical DO w r would be one of the greatest de- velopments in harnessing the atom for commercial use.
 But Goldubstov doesn't give any hint of how the Soviets SUD- posedly are doing it, and the tone of his article follows the usual Soviet line of attacking the United States program.
 (The Atomic Energy Commits sion is working on the problem of developing power from atomic re- actors.
 They are based on taking the heat from atomic ovens and using it to operate turbines or other de- dice to get electrical power, said Corbin Allardyce, director of the AEC's information service in New York).
