A Letter From
Bill Lantaff

Dear Neighbor:
One of the most controversial
subjects of each Congress is Con-
greSsional immunity. What is it,
how did it originate, or why
doesn't Congress eliminate it are
but a few of the questions that
come up on this topic each year.
We need only to dig into his
tory and look at our Constitution
to determine the origin of Con-
gressional immunity. History tells
us that back when our founding
fathers drew up the Constitu-
tion, they were of the opinion that
such immunity would provide for
free debate and would remove the
threat of legal entanglements that
might be employed against a
member of Congress for the sole
purpose of delaying consideration
or enactment of any bill.
They enviSioned that members
of Congress in debating a meaure
might be harassed by law suits
for Slander by opponents of their
views to such an extent that the
Senators and Congressman would
spend a major portion of their
time defending law suits in court
rather than enacting legislation
in the halls of Congress. So, Art
icle /, Section 6 of the United
States Constitution provides for
Congressional immunity.
While. we can readily under
stand the good and honorable in
tentions of our pioneer Senators
and Congressman and appreciate
their concern to permit free de-
bate without fear of the imposi-
tion of stalling legal tactics by the
opposition, we know they never
intended their actions to furnish
a member of Congress with a
safe-sniping ground for personal
attacks on individuals to his dis
liking.
Yes, while Congressional i'm
munity permits free debate it,
also, means in effect that a mem
ber of the House or Senate can
take the floor during debate on
some issue and make a false
statement about somebody or run

blacklist without any effort.
Admiral Rowe believes it will be
possible to have this restriction re-
moved from the books as he feels
that Department of Agriculture Of
ficials are beginning to realize the
injustice and stupidity of the ban.
In Seattle last week were four
representatives of the Japanese CT
trus industry en- route to Washing
ton D. c. to appeal their case before
Agriculture officials.
At a meeting of these men with
Port of Seattle officials and local
importers, it was brought out that
the bulk of japanese mandarins. if
allowed to enter the country. would
not be too competitive with the So
called mandarins from the southern
U. S. since the latter would hit the
markets little earlier than the ia
panese mandarinS.
However, as Mr.. ToShio Urabe, of
the japanese Government Overseas
Agency, pointed out there is more
at stake in the lifting of the ban
on Japanese mandarins than most
people realize.
The Japanese would benefit, natu-
ral1v from, tho i,,oop,a +lot mould
be earned by growers, pickers, box
ers, packers. and shippers.
But the important thing would
be its psychological effect.
At the present time, Mr.. Urabe
declared. American manufacturers
and producers are vigorously pro-
testing the importing of less costly
japanese products such as toys, ce-
ramic. and tuna, and are trying to
get restrictions placed on them.
This, of course, has had a very
harmful effect on the japanese.
who feel, with some justification
that the Americans are trying to
their efforts to recon-
struct their commerce.
But if the restriction is removed,
this would have very healthy eff
feet on the Japanese, and serve to
counterfeit the il-will generated by
producers OF other commodities

The japanese mandarin oran-
ge-or satsuma orange-was one of
the most popular imported fruits in
pre-war days.
For years, this small delicious
fruit was a favorite of thousands of
Americans. and it was considered a
special treat by children.
Because the mandarins were inn
ported during the Christmas sea-
son. the children commonly called
them Christmas oranges.
Ever since the first mandarins
were exported from Japan to Anne
RIGA. they were a sizable item in
Japan's total export trade.
In the early twenties, they were
Japan's biggest export, SURPRISING
even raw silk
But with the advent of Pearl Har-
Dor, it became a war casualty. and
has been a casualty ever since.
In 1916, when it appeared that
Japan might again be permitted to
export various products. the U. S.
Department of Agriculture slapped
ban on Japanese mandarins, con-
tending that they were carriers of
disease kown as citrus canker.
Thus since the outbreak of World
War II not single mandarin or
ange has been imported into the u
nited States from Japan.
The kind of mandarin we've been
eating these past winters are the
Florida, Louisiana and Texas YER
sion of the Japanese satsuma, and
very poor version at that-pulpy,
dry. fibrous. and seedy
In the meanwhile. Japan has been
importing mandarins into Canada.
Over a million cases pass through
Vancouver. B. C. annually
This situation caused Admiral
Gordon Rowe. a Port of Seattle
Commissioner, to start an investi-
CATION.
He checked with Canadian autho-
rites and learned that there had
not been a single case of citrus can
ker in the millions of boxes of man
darins imported into Canada before
and after the war
What the Canadians know-and
the U. S. Department OF Agriculture
doesn't know is that citrus cank-
er is transmitted by the mandarin
tree. and never by the fruit.
He also Investigated the records
of the u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture and found out that there were
no reported instances of citrus can
ker in mandarins imported into the
u S. before the war.
In his probe Admiral Rowe dis
covered that the ban on mandar- A,
ms originated at a meeting in 1916 |
at the Department of Agriculture in
d. c. when some Flo
rda citrus growers succeeded in
having the mandarin placed on the

! NORFOLK. Va, Oct. THE

present.
One report was that the bomb
or dynamite, possibly was dropped
from an airplane. But the FB1
largely discounted that theory
after learning that only one per-
son said he heard a plane about
that time.
The Rev. John r. Grady, oper-
Iating the mobile chapel for the
Diocesan Missionary Fathers OF
the Richmond diocese, told OF
other incidents that followed the
explosion.

"Target Practice" Held.
A night later Sergt. B. Walker
Harrison, jr.. of the Denbigh police
heard firearms discharged in the
vicinity. His search disclosed q
number of people having target
practice"
The incidents halted after an
other policeman was brought in
from nearby community, and a
regular police patrol set up.
The Most Rev. Joseph H. Hodles,
Auxiliary Bishop of Richmond and
head of the missionary group, said
the incidents were wholly un-
characteristic of the kind of re-
ceptions we've been getting in
other Virginia communities.
Recently, the Most Rev. Peter L.
Ireton. Bishop of Richmond, said
Catholic priests had been denied
the right to speak in two Vir-
ginia communities. Bishop Ireton
declined to name the two towns.
Identification Is Asked.
A church organization yester-
day asked Catholic leaders to
name the communities in Virginia
in which Catholics were refused
permission to speak by civil au-
thoritieS.
Stanley Lichtenstein, research
director of the Protestants and
Other Americans United for Sepa-
ration Of Church and State, said
the request was made to the editor
of the Catholic Standard and the
vice chancellor of the Richmond
chancery of the Roman Catholic
Church.
The Protestants spokesman said
that Bishop Peter L. Ireton of the
Richmond diocese had made cor
rective action impossible because
ne had refused to name the To-
calities where the Objectionable
actions had allegedly occurred.
