WASHINGTON. d. c., Aug. Is
fJACL ADCl-Steps by which ia
panese Spouses can enter the United
States as non-quota immigrants
rnder the provisions of the new In
migration and Nationality Act were
outlined today by the Washington
office of the JACL Anti-Discrimina
ton Committee.
The recently enacted JACL ADO
Endorsed immigration and Nationa-
lily Act provides that Spouses thus
bands and wives and children of
! American citizens may be admitted
to the United States quota free, de-
clared the Washington JACL ADO
office.
! An investigation of the facts will
be made in each case by the Immi-
grafton and Naturalization Service,
said the Washington JACL ADO of
| flee.
If after the investigation the At
, torney General determines that the
facts stated in the petition are true
and that the japanese national for
whom the petition is made is actu-
ally eligible for a non-quota immi-
grant status, then the Attorney
General will approve the petition
and forward one copy of it to the
| Department of State, declared the
Washington office of the JACL
ADO.
The Secretary of State will then
authorize the proper consular Off
Ger in Japan to grant the non-quota
immigrant status to the Japanese
national
While the japanese spouse of an
American citizen can come into the
United States as non-quota immi-
grant such a person must also file
with the American conular officer
an application claiming that status,
said the Washington JACL ADO Of

The Washington office of the ia
CT Ado suggested that, although
the new immigration and Nationa-
lily Act does not go into effect until
Dec. "a, 1852. American citizens
with Japanese spouses inform their
spouses to register now on the quo
ia waiting list to avoid flooding A
merican consular officers with last
minute applications.

Act of 1852 instead or worsening
the situation as the Issei have been
told. significantly iberaizcs certain
deportation provisions of the Inter
nal Security Act. Some Senate inn
migration experts have contended
that if the new immigration and
Nationality Act were the law of the
land now, it would be unlikely that
the Latya case would have come up
1t is the consensus among veteran
Washington observers that if Lat
va can delay his case until Dec. "a.
1852 when the new immigration
and Nationality Act becomes effec-
tive, then his chances of remaining
in this country are good.
Latva is a Finnish immigrant
who for brief period of four
months I'm 1884 was a member of
the Communist party. Because
of this previous affiliation Latva
has been ordered depOrted.
Since many Issei were once
members of organizations now
named. along with Communist
groups. on the Attorney Generals
list of prescribed organizations,
the Latva case is of particular in
terest To them.
AS anticipated by the hackers of
the Latva case, the new Immigra-
ton and Nationality Act when it
has been given an opportunity to
operate, will prove undoubtedly to
be better than the old law. the

Taft, Eisenhower Forces Head
For Another Battle Today
BY JACK Bell

CHICAGO M-Warring partisans
of Gen. Dwight d. Eisenhower and
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio headed
today toward another clash over
delegate contests in the battle for
the COP presidential nomination.
The bic convention hall where
1900 OF the Republican faithful
Monday night cheered q slashing
attack by Gen. Douglas Macarthur
on what he called the Truman
administrations tragic blunders''
throbbed with new threats Of mira
party strife.
This time it seemed trierered
to explode over a Credentials Com
mittee report on the seating Of
50 delegates from seven states,
most Of them Taft hackers.
Of these, 68 from Georgia, Lou
isiana and Texas-including so
Taft men-were barred from the
convention Monday from voting on
any seating contests until their own
status is decided finally.
Although Taft was beaten 65S to
548 on that issue by a coalition of
Eisenhower's supporters and back
ers of other candidates. he bounced
back to capture control of the con-
vention's Credentials Committee.
This group named former Rep.
Ross Ridley Of Oklahoma, a Taft
hacker, as its chairman.
Some Eisenhower leaders feared
the committee would bring back
to the convention-possibly today
but more likely Wednesday, re-
port giving the Ohio senator the
bulk of the contested delegates.
They promised a bristling floor
fight in that event.
The feuding factions forgot their
differences temporarily Monday
night to thunder approval Of Mac
Arthur's call for a COP crusade
against steering America into "a
s0cialistic or ever later a Commu-
nistic state"
They will hear former President
Herbert Hoover tonight in a party
unity appeal.
MacArthur--a civilian keynoter
for a night-won his mightiest ova-
ton when he asserted with refer
ence to Korea that ''it is fatal to
enter any war without the will to
win it."
At no time did Macarthur men,
ton the name of either Eisenhower
or Taft. But the overall tone Of
his party-rallying address was
much more in line with Taft's
views than those of Eisenhower.
Gov. John S. Fine of Pennsyl-
vania. who is reported to have told
friends he would like to start a
presidential boom for Macarthur
In the convention, helped lead the
cheering for the keynoter.
