Congratulations To Mr.. Smith

Well, we rode the wrong horse last
week when we said what we believed,
that DR.. Frank P. Graham should be
nominated for U. S. Senator. DIR.
Franks supporters stayed away from
the poles in droves and as result Will
lis Smith will be the next senator from
North Carolina.
This is democratic country. The
majority rules. Mr.. Smith received that
majority last week and it is our feel
ing that he should henceforth receive
the full and unanimous support of one
and all. The merits of the two men is
no longer the question. Mr.. Smith is
going TO Washington, and he can best
serve our community, the state and the
nation by having the cooperation of all.

ruins towns. Spirit builds them.
If YOU have a feeling that you know
some one who would like to start some
thing constructive in Tabor City, con-
tact him. Have others contact MIN. Try
to find him a proper location that
could be pried loose from property
owners without holding gun in his

City. Then let's bring those businesses
and those citizens to Tabor City that
will make us a bigger and better COM
nunity.
Let's not fear bringing bushes:
here because it will be comparative
with another already established. The
n,ore businesses of wholesome nature
here the more people will come to do
their trading. 1t is as simply as that.
Let's wake up and not let few
carry the burden for all. It's our be-
lief that there are business men in town
who are born leaders but who fail tc
speak their piece and thus go unhearld-
ed. Let's all talk. Let's all act. Let's get

feel that those of us who rode the
wrong horse should do likewise.
There's no reason to doubt that Mr..
Irnith will be a good senator. He has
the law experience and business ex-
perience which most lawmakers of to-
day have. His conservative policy more
nearly parallels that of the present day
Republican party than it does the
Democratic party. Yet, the fact re-
mains that North Carolinians in this
election have clearly voted against the
present national administration, Mr..
Truman and Mr.. Scott. 1t shows
trend away from the fair deal and to-
ward conservative national policy.
Let's get behind Mr.. Smith and back
him henceforth as he was backed by

TOBaCk Measure

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 4
(ADC)-More than so national orga-
nizations have been urged to work
for Statehood for Hawaii by Mike
Mas Ioka, national JACL ADO legis-
ative director.
Speaking at the third annual con-
ference of the National Civil Liber-
ties Clearing House, the legislative
director pointed out that Statehood
for Hawaii would indicate that "this
government has an interest In Paci-
fic affairs"
Hawaii is the closest link the Uni
ted States has with Asia, he said.
Only by comforting upon the terri
tory full Statehood can this nation
indicate to Asia its sympathies and
interests with the people in that
part of the world.
He said by every standard Hawaii
had qualified for Statehood and
that failure to approve Statehood
for Hawaii during the present ses-
sion of the legislature would be a
serious indictment that Congress, in
truth has no humane interest in the
Orient. or in maintaining a link with
Asia

In the House hearings, there
was evidence that some Commit
tee members las well as Justice
department representatives, were
vague as to the background and
problems of the evacuation.
Rep. John J. Rooney. Cd. N.Y.,
wanted to know if there was ANY
advantage to the Government in
rushing in to investigate and pay
hese claims.
One need for prompt action is to
secure proper evidence, Mr.. Morrison
said, adding that Congress "gener-
ously sought to remedy the wrong

Rep. Karl Stefan. (R.. Neb), ex-
pressed repeated surprise that there
was absolutely no record of what
these people left behind them, in
spite of the fact that we had an ex-
pensiVe agency there-that War Re-
location Board authority 49,. plus

Later he asked how many were
evacuated. Morrison said at first
about 100000, but then submitted
for the record that it was only
$4,000.
Rep. Cliff Clevenger, (R., Ohio
wanted to find out who was the
master MIND in back of the expro-
priation of these million dollars of
property from American citizens.
Who was the administrators"
Morrison attempted to explain
briefly the Army's reasoning in the
evacuation. but Clevenger sought
name. That name-Dillon S. Myer-
former head of the War Relocation
Authority now President of the In
stitute OF Inter American Affairs,
finally was established.
Rep CleVenger said there was a

ADO Urges Nomination of Nisei
For Federal Judge in Hawaii

There is probably less discri-
mination and prejudice among the
various races that make up Hawaii
than anywhere else under the Am
erican flag" he asserted, so the
ancient undemOcratic concepts
which, i'm the continental United
States. so often hold back superior
persons of minority groups from
winning appointments to top fed
eral positions should and must be
ignored in considering appoint
ments i'm Hawaii"
He pointed out to Secretary Chap
man that a Nisei, Wilfred Tsuki-
yama, was named president of the
Territorial Senate, although it is
predominantly Caucasian, and do
zens of Nisei have won elective of
fices in Hawaii, on the city, county
and territorial level Frequently
these Nisei have been elected from
districts in which japanese or other
Asiatics are small minority he
said.
In his conference with Secretary
Chapman, Masaoka also discussed
the problem of Statehood for the
island territory.

.JACL Supports
Statehood Status
For Hawaii

WASHINGTON, D. c., March
(ADC)-With the House scheduled
to call up Statehood bills for Hawaii
and Alaska this week, the JACL
Ado again urged favorable action
on both measures.
At the same time, Mike Masaoka,
national JACL ADO legislative dir
ector, asked JACL chapters through
out the nation to contact their Re-
representatives. in behalf of Statehood
for Hawaii.
He suggested individual JACL
members should write in support
of Statehood, and chapters might
well adopt resolutions favoring
such a move. Resolutions should
be forwarded to respective Repre-
sentatives.
Statehood for Hawaii was appro-
we'd by the House in the Eightieth
Congress, but died in the Senate.
Recently Del. Joseph r. Earring
ton. CR., Hawaii, said the possibility
of favorable Congressional action is
greater this year than ever before"
MaSaoka said the distinguished
record of Hawaii is impressive evil
dence that the territory not only is
ready for Statehood, but has been
ready for the past two decades.
He said Hawaii is the finest ex-
ample of democracy in action any
where under the American flag.
There is less prejudice, less
discrimination, greater harmony
and group loyalty among the
various peoples who make up Ha-
waits rich, cosmopolitan popula-
ton than can be found anywhere
else in this country.
Complete and heroic loyalty dur
ing the war, as well as living up to
the highest ideals of democracy are
the finest indications Hawaii should
be granted Statehood" he said.
