Los ANGELES. Cali. May Il
The state o. California win not a.
zeal the decision of the california
Supreme Court which ecenly he'll
the California Alien Land LaNun-
constitutional the regional Office
OF the JACL learned today from the
office Of ATTORNEY General Edmund
T. Brown
This court. last April H. in 1 to
3 decision, ruled against the lien
land law in the Sci Fuiu VS. Califor-
MIA case
Brown, in describing this racist
statute as CaliIornias last legal
remnant OF racial discrimination,
expressed accord with that part o.
tho decision which nullified the ali
en- land law, not by application OF
the United Nations Charter but ra-
ther on the grounds that 1t was in
violation of the Fourteenth Amend
ment to the U. c. Constitution.
It is recalled that on March 16.
1850 Superior Court Judge Thur
mond Clarke of Los Angeles, in the
JACL-sponsored Masaokl VS. Cali
fornia case. first ruled the alien
land law to be unconstitutional be-
cause of its violation of the l4th A
mendment. The Masaoka ease was
appealed by the State to the Cali
fornia Supreme Court where it was
heard in January. 1851 simultane-
ously with the Full case.
The JACB hailed the decision as
recognition by the State of Califor-
mia of the racially discriminatory
intent of the outdated statute, enac-
ted during a period of growing anti
japanese sentiment Enacted in
1913. the alien land law was greatly
fortified by initiative act in 1920.
In 1913, however. in the Oyama
case, the U. S Supreme Court in
validated that section which had
been relied upon by the state to en-
force numerous escheat cases again
st Nisei landowners during the war
Calling upon the Attorney Gener-
ais office to let the decision in the
Full case remain without appeal
because it would prolong additional
years of hardship to many 1ssei and
because of the unquestioned raciSt
character of the alien land law the
JACL had requested. through its
two regional offices and more than
forty chapters throughout Califor-
mia many community groups and
organizations to Join its efforts in
urging that the decision not be ar
pealed
The Los Angeles Daily News and
other newspapers have supported
JACL1s efforts by editorially com
mending the decision and recon-
mending that no appeal be filed by

community in those countries
back to the road Of Jewishness.
i In Glantz's opinion the trend has
been toward orthodoxy and ,tra-
ditionalism. since most Of the
Jews in those countries stem
from areas where the ancient
well struck deep roots. Most Of
the Jews in Brazil come from
Bassarabia and Poland. Lithuan-
ian Jews constitute the majority
of the Jewish population in Cuba.
while in Mexico most Jews trace
their origin to Russia. Argentina
has a preponderance of Bessarab-
ian Jews.
It was natural that we should
discuss the youth and inter-mar-
riage. He estimated that the inter-
marriage rate was anywhere be-

the incidence of intermarriage
was declining with the numerical
and spiritual growth of the COM
munities. Most of the intermarri-
ages, he said, occur among the in
tellectuals who come in contact
with non-Jews in the colleges and
universities. It was Glantz's opin-
ion that the Jewish community
in those countries is virile one
and that if its development is
not hampered by other factors
lit will become a great PRUDENTIAL

Jewish communities. What he
meant to imply was that there is
an air of profound sincerity and
conviction about their activities
be they of religious, social or
cultural nature. The Jewish COM
munity in those countries, he told
me, ''has not yet been stricken by
that socially paralyzing disease
known as cynicism." He ascribed
the lack of apathy and indifferz
