A slightly numb" lieutenant in

try's second highest military hon.
or, the Distinguished Service
Cross, in q ceremony yesterday at
Walter Reed Hospital.
Slightly numb" were the words
First 1t. Howard w. Cardoza, jr.

his feelings about the presenta-

Gen. STREET pinned the medal
TO the sling which supported 1t.
Cardoza's virtually useless left

partment of Justice, attention.:
S. A. Andretta, Administrative
Assistant to the Attorney General,
Washington Is, d. C.
The Justice Department said re-
Gently it has sent out several thou
sand claims on request. but has re-
,eived back a comparative few. Since
passage of the law, the Department
has paid approximately $50 claims.
Vt gave no indication of the value of
he claims involved.
The Attorney General has advised
he JACL Ado that, in determining
he value of claims, "the value of
the property at the time of the de-
oosit shall be used as the basis of
valuation" If a claimant is en-
tiled to more than $1,000, the claim
will be referred to Congress for pay
nent.
Masaoka pointed out that Pub
lie Law II was passed as "a sup
plement to the Evacuation Claims
Act. 1t treats an entirely different
type of claim, and should not be
confused with the law to cOmpen-
safe evacuees for personal or pro-
perry damage suffered when the
army ordered removal of persons
of japanese ancestry several
months after the outbreak of war;,
he said. Deadline under the Eva
cuation Claims Act was January 3.
Meantime. the Justice Department
said that a number of contraband
articles still are in custody of U. S.
Marshals around the nation. 1t
urged persons of japanese ancestry
who are legal owners of such pro-
perty to claim the property immed-
lately or the department will dis
pose of the articles it still has on
hand.

country are aiming for a definite

That is the 1855 such visitors
who came to Japan in the highest
peak pre-war year. When that is
reached, officials believe that travel
conditions will be more or less back
to normal
The present volume falls consider
bly, short of the goal, but the Japan
Travel Bureau and other agencies
believe the pickup will come rapidly
when certain preliminaries are COM
pleted. These include the further
casing of travel restrictions. the
completion of more hotels to ac-
commodate foreign guests, and the
improvement of transportation faci-
lities throughout the nation. Inter

out. are already far better than
they we're before the war, including

TOWARD A "GANGSTER
GOVERNMENT"

Maxwell Anderson, the distinguished
playwright who authored What Price
Glory" and other Broadway hits, has
written a little essay called "The Guaran-
teed Life" At the end of it he says this !:
The power of government in the United
States has grown like a fungus in wet
weather Our government has turned
into a gaint give-away program, offering
far more for votes than was ever paid by
the most dishonest ward-heeler in the
days of Mark Hanna. We move steadily
toward the prefabricated state. Yet we
see clearly that in England, Socialism
turns rapidly into Communism, and that in
Russia and Jugoslavia, Communism gives
neither freedom nor security The guaran-
teed life turns out to be not only not free
its not safe. Do we want a gangster
government? That's what we're going to-
ward
This is the sorry fashion in which
freedom is lost. And, ironically enough,
while we are in the process of losing it we
are rebbing ourselves blind to pay the
ever-growing costs of the paternal state
~ q lille Which, SoNCIHlHSlll revenues are
enormous and when there is relatively
little unemployment, we have adopted de-
ficit spending. 1t is clear that even a mod
crate drop in business activity, even a
small-sized depression, would be cata-
clysm under these conditions.
The recent elections in England, Aus
tralia and New Zealand showed strong
trend away from the "prefabricated
state on the part of people who have ex.
perienced it at first hand. The big ques-
ton for us is whether or not we can profit
by such examples.
