first meeting of the conference "as

easier it will be to bring the evacua-

TRUMAN'SPLAN
REJECTED, BUT
WINS Ado OKAY

WASHINGTON, d. G. July Is
(ADC) - Although the House has
turned down the Presidents Re-
organization Plan No. 81, the JACL
Anti discrimination Committee APP
peared in support of the proposal at
Senate hearings.
In a statement submitted to the
Senate Committee on Expenditures
in the Executive Departments. Mike
MaSaoka, national JACL Ado legis-
ative director. declared that eleva-
ting the Federal Security Agency
into a Cabinet Department of Health.
Education and Security, as proposed
in the plan. had the support of the
JACL.
He said the JACL was particu-
larly interested because the three
services "are so close to minority
groups" He added however that
this was no implication any minor
ity groups have or will demand
more from such services than
members of majority groups.
His statement added: After care
full consideration of Plan No ~ we
find two strong reasons for giving it
our support. The first is that by the
simple act of elevating the status
Of agencies dealing with health edit
cation and security, the government
would automatically indicate the in
creasing significance these play in
our troubled times.
THE second is that, as a matter
of sound sense in government. Plan
No q would promote the efficiency
and economy of agencies dealing
with health, education and welfare"
MasaOka said he seconded a
statement of the House Committee
on Expenditures in the Executive
Departments when ii wrote: 'Un-
der Reorganization Plan No. 81
(the FSA) would be linked direct
Iy TO the attention and control Of
the President. The Importance Of
its mission merits its elevation.
The uniqueness Of its major pur-
poses and goals is self eloquent
The size Of its related programs is
again a justification as a major
department."
Masaoka pointed out the establish
ment of a new Cabinet of Health,
Education and Security would "un-
derscore one of the basic concepts
of American democracy-promotlng
the general welfare-as expounded
by the Constitution"

aliens still denied the right of natu-
ralization because of their race.
1t has been reported the Senate
conferees would like to tack on at
least part of the McCarran Omnibus
Immigration and Naturalization to
the Walter Resolution in conference,
especially those sections dealing with
aliens in the United States. These are
among the most controversial sec
tions of the omnibus bill
The House is expected to resist
such action as being not germane to
the simple resolution.
Mike Masaoka, national JACL
ADO legislative director, said he
hoped the Conference committee
could meet within the next week to
10 days. He said he had the personal
assurance of Rep. Walter that con-
ferees will discuss the two versions
of the resolution las quickly as a
meeting of the committee can be
arranged after Sen. McCarran's re-
turn.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July is
(ADC) - The Senate Appropriations
Committee has recommended a
$50, 900 increase in the Department
of Justices budget for fiscal year
1851 to process evacuation claims
according to the JACL Anti-Discri-
mination Committee
The committee upped the $3.50.
600 recommended by the House
budget for administration of the
claims program to SSOO,0 900. At the
same time. the Senate trimmed the
amount recommended for claims
payments from S3.75O,OOO to $1,000
900 for the fiscal year.
Acting on a JACL Ado request
for an increased administrative bud
get. the committee recognized that
the most significant aspect of the
money for the claims program dur
ing the next year or two is for pro-
cessing and preparing claims.
In its report. the committee said
it has been advised that 81 100000
is approximately all that will be re-
quired during the next fiscal year
for the payment of claims,
"The committee is anxious that
these claims be proceSsed and paid
as expeditiously as possible since a
great many of the claimants. con-
sidering their ages, otherwise would
not receive awards in their life
times.
at Is for this reason the commit
tee recommends that the amount
available for administrative expen-
ses be increased to $500 000".
The original Justice Department
budget estimate for the evacuation
claims program for the fiscal year
was $500. 800. The House allowed
an appropriation of $1,000, 900, of
which S25O.O0 would be available
for administrative expenses.
Mike MaSaoka, national JACL
Ado legislative director. said the
Senate action is in line with the
Ado policy of seeking the largest
possible appropriation for processing
and adudicating claims.
ut is senseless to appropriate
money for claims payments when the
claims are not processed, and allow
only an insignificant sum for adiu-
dicating the $4,000 claims filed under
the act" he said.
THE first and most pressing need
is to get the claims processed. The

nifty to voice their opinions on the

General Election in November, Sec
rotary of State Earl Coe predicted
this week as it appeared that both
Initiative 176 and 178 would be on
the ballot.
The two welfare initiatives we're
the sole survivors of field of
five proposed measures for which
sponsors have been seeking sigma
lures for the past several weeks.
Three other initiatives on world
government, juvenile protection and
increased unemployment compensa-
ton fell by the wayside as sponsors
failed in their efforts to obtain the
required $4,000 signatures.
Initiative 176, sponsored by the
Washington Pension Union and
calling for increased social security
benefits, was filed with the Sec
rotary of State carrying an esti-
mated 10000 names.
Initiative 178, sponsored by Gov
ernor Langlie, and calling for a
curtailment of social security spen-
ding, was filed with more than
10000 names.
Since the mortality rate on ini-
tiative signatures runs about 20 per-
cent, Coe declared that it was ma
thematical certainty the two mea-
sures would appear on the ballot.
With the filing of the two initia-
tives a crew of temporary workers
swung into action in Goes office

checked: Cd to assure that the
signer is registered voter, CD that
the signature is genuine. and 90
that the signer has not signed more

The University of Virginia
coach, in q somewhat technical
but interesting story, tells how his
Cavaliers went about beating Penn
last year for the first time in Is
meetings. Some of Guepe's in
formation must make interesting
reading for George Munger, the
Penn coach.
The Virginia squad, 1910 con-
queror OF George Washington in
it's opening game last week, passed
through Washington this morning
en- route to Philadelphia where it
meets the Quakers at 2 pm. to-
morrow at Franklin Field. 1t will
be Penn'S opening game.
There will be no upset theme
for either side tomorrow as the
game is quoted as one of the few
major engagements of the day
where no points are involved by
the odds makers.
Must Have New Strategy.

new strategy against the Quakers

to mar the record. Powerful Cor
mel should be the decisive victor
over Lafayette, and Maryland pre-

will have before they subdue
Georgetown and William and
Mary.
On the West Coast the big
problem of "how strong is Cali
formal" will be solved conclu-
sively as it shows typical Waldorf
power in overwhelming Oregon.
Watch for California's Johnny
Olzewski to shine again. Forest
Evashevski draws a tough assign
ment in UCLA and I believe Red
Sanders well-coached Uclans will
subdue his Washington Staters.
Back in the South a very i'm
portant tilt is the Alabama-Tulane
clash in which we register our
first vote in favor of the SEC
darkhorse Alabama. Three other
games in that conference will see
Tennessee. Kentucky and Georgia

beating Mississippi State, Missis-
sippi and South Carolina.
Vanderbilt, Florida and Miami
are expected to outscore Auburn,
Duquesne and The Citadel. In
the Southwest the advantage goes
to Baylor. Arkansas and Texas
A. and M. over Houston, North
Texas State and Texas Tech.
Kansas State, Hardin Simmons
and Oklahoma A. and M. have
the edge over Colorado, Trinity
and TCU.
Our own season opens in the
Notre Dame stadium, a definite
advantage as the Notre Dame stu
dent body has played an impor-
tant role in all the games won at
home. Because we know so much
about Coach Snavely's ability we
respect his team immensely, and
I hope I am not being overly op-
timistic when I say that one
touchdown well may decide the
outcome. When teams are this
evenly matched the breaks play
an important part in determining
the winner.

Faces Task Beating Penn Again

arations Of 1949 in his SEP feat
ure. This comes as a slight sur
prise to the football men who
know Penn to be the same type
ball club year after year. It Is
only natural to think Virginia
would use some of last years
strategy, but now that's out be-
cause all Munger needs is Is cents
to read the mistakes he made last
year.
Guepe tells how Virginia's Of
fensive strategy panned out so
neatly that the Cavaliers scored

gained possession of the ball: and
how his team anticipated what
sort Of play was coming almost
every time Penn centered the ball.
OF course the situation is a little
different this year. Last year the
Penn game was Virginia's seventh
of an unbeaten season at that
point. Penn had played five
games, beating Dartmouth, Prince
ton, Columbia and Navy before
losing to Pitt on a blocked punt

and Philadelphia Eagles.
This should be an outstanding
tussle and although Santa Clara
is potent, our vote goes to Rice,
as Jess Nicely again will have one
of the Southwest's finest teams.
Other important intersectional
meetings are Oklahoma-Boston
College, Missouri-Clemson and
Texas-Purdue. We favor the host
team in each case, as Oklahoma
and Texas appear to be among the
top five in the country, and Mis-
souri, is not far behind. The South
ern Methodist-O State game
in Columbus should be thriller
with the nod going to SMU.
In the South's two intersectional
games Duke is favored over Pitts
burgh and LSU should defeat Col
lege Of the Pacific. Georgia goes
to the West Coast where it should
subdue st. Mary's. The Pacific
Coast Conference and the Big Ten
should split in their inter-confer-
ence games as power-laden South
ern California proves too much for
Iowa and Minnesota outscores
Washington.
1t isn't necessary to bring teams
from afar to arrange outstanding
games and this will be demon
strated in East Lansing, where
Michigan State plays host to the
University Of Michigan. In what
may be the days best game. we
pick Michigan to win. The four
remaining teams in the Big Ten
should warm up satisfactorily as

Wisconsin defeat Ohio u, Iowa
