The remains of the Wage Sta
bilization Board was reconsti-
tuted as a Wage Sterilization
Committee, and it began work
on a backlog of cases left by
the old Wage Board. It would
not attempt to set new policy,
but would merely act on pending
cases.
The new controls team tried
to put a little life into their
agencies last week. Mr.. Free
hill said his Office would crack
down on articles nudging up
ward in price. I'VE cannot af-
ford to be complacent about
imitation or to weaken our price,
control efforts" he said.
Mike Disable spoke up: IF I
didn't feel that direct controls
were necessary" he said, IT
wouldn't have agreed to Sue
ceed Mr.. Putnam"
This talk sounded pretty hol-
low to the workers under them,
however. Controls were so
clearly on the way out that
clerks and lawyers and assist
ants were scrambling for other
jobs.

Prisoner Riots

Last spring and summer it
was a group of fanatic prisoners
of war that attempted to en-
barrass the United Nations by
rioting on Koje Island. Last
week it was a group of Com
munist civilian internees that
rioted, this time on Pongam
Island.
The result of the civilian out
break was the same-death and
wounds for the Reds.
American guards had ex-
pected some sort Of trouble.
They had found smuggled notes
which revealed the plot. Signal
for the outbreak was to be
massed singing of outlawed
Communist songs. Guards were
to be stoned, and a break was
to be attempted.
The singing Started a week
ago. Three hundred Korean
and American guards moved up
to the prison compound. The
rocks began to fly, and the sing
ing prisoners moved toward the
troops. The commander, 1t.
Col. George P. Miller, ordered
his men to- fire. Before the riot
stopped. "a prisoners lay dead.
118 were wounded.
There was Just no other way

Controls

THE President patched up his
l. price and wage control pro-
gram last week and hoped it
would hold together until Gen.
Eisenhower takes over next
month.
The controls program had
been somewhat shredded re-
Gently when the chairman Of
the Wage Sterilization Board
and its industry members quit
in huff; the price stabilizer re-
signed out of evaporation, and
the economic stabilizer and de-
tense mobilizer said they wanted
to go home.
The general discouragement
with stabilization stemmed in
part from the Presidents own
action in overruling the Wage
Boards decision that soft-coal
miners could have only $1.50
of the $1.90 wage increase they
wrangled from mine owners.
Also responsible was criticism of
continued controls voiced by
labor and industry spokesmen
and by key Congressmen.
Controls Held Useless
Critics claimed direct controls
were already useless. The Presi-
dent, however, insisted sharp in
f1ation would follow any collapse
Of controls.
Here was the new setup:
Henry H. FoWler agreed to
stay on as head of the Office of
Defense Mobilization until jan
uary 20, despite his wish to re-
sign by January /. His agency
supervises all economic stabili-
zation and defense production.
Michael Disable, former price
stabilizer. accepted the job of
economic stabilizer. permitting
Roger L. Putnam to step out.
MIR. Disable will oversee both
wage and price controls.
Joseph FreehiH was sworn In
as head of the Office Of Price
Sterilization.

government and eventual inde-
pendence. France wants to move
slowly; Moroccan and Tunisian
nationalists want to move fast.
The Sultan and Bey side gen.
orally with the nationalists.
List Of Reforms
France drew up list of re-
forms which were designed to
lead toward self-government for
the protectorates. The nation
alists protested that some of the
reforms would actually give the
French more power and would
tend to draw the protectorates
closer to France. Instead Of
self-government and independ-
ence. they said, the reforms
would lead toward self-govern-
ment as integral parts of France
proper-the sort of status AlgierS
enjoys-or endures, depending
on the point of view.
The Bey and Sultan refused
to sign the reforms, supported
by the nationalist leaders in
both countries.
Last week the two potentates
found themselves standing al
most alone. AS an aftermath
of the rioting over independ-
ence, virtually all nationalist
leaders had been arrested.
Hopes for u, N. backing of the
nationalist movement were
dashed by rejection of an Arab
Asian bloc resolution.
Screws frightened
The screws were frightened
first on the Bey Of Tunis, Sidi
Mohammed el Amin Pasha. The
French cabinet sent him a vir-
tual ultimatum to sign the re-
forms. II the Bey held out the
French could exile his closest
advisers-members of his own
family-or they could use the
ultimate weapon and remove
him from his throne. Included
in the ultimatum were some
French concessions to make the
medicine easier to swallow. But
in the long run. France held the
high cards.
In the United Nations the
Morocco-Tunisia problems still
were hanging fire. A neutral"
resolution had been approved
tentatively, calling on both sides
to talk over their differences.
Last week other compromise
resolutions were offered, but
there was no stampede on the
part of the majority (including
the United States) to be any
thing but neutral.

used to determine candidates for
mass evacuation in 1912. All
persons of Japanese descent
were moved out of the Pacific
coastal area. citizens and aliens
alike. There were no loyalty
tests, no hearing boards.
Despite the treatment he got
from America, Jim Shizuoka still
wanted to become a citizen.
And he wanted to help America
win the war. He volunteered
to teach Japanese in a Navy
intelligence school at the Uni
versity of Colorado. Later he
taught at Oklahoma A6sM.
After the war the Shizuokas
moved TO Washington, where
Jim worked four years as a
translator for the Japanese
American Citizens League. He
is now a teacher at the Berlitz
School of Languages here.
In addition to Jim Shizuoka
and $4,000 resident Japanese,
Christmas eve will mean the
opening of naturalization for
about 5000 other aliens in
eligible to citizenship" including
Koreans, Burmese, Siamese and
Indonesians.

Elimination of race barriers
to citizenship. together with the
opening of immigration on a
token quota basis (Japan, for
example. will be permitted 1876
annually, will have a profound
effect on the continuing battle
Tor the minds and hearts of men
In Asia. American denial Of i'm
migration and naturalization to
ASians has been a favorite topic
for Communist propaganda.
There were anti-American
demonstrations in Japan in
1924, when the United States
Congress passed the exclusion
act and it was signed, albeit re-
luctantly, by President Coolidge.
The japanese government for
mally protested this discrim-
ination based on race" Resent
ment against it was exploited by
the pro-militarists, who were to
lead the Japanese on the long
and tragic journey to Pearl Har-
Dor and back to the deck of the
Missouri in Tokyo Bay.
Repeal of the Asiatic exclu-
sion law was supported by the
State Department in congress

American foreign policy, remov-
ing a 28-year-old cancer in
Japanese-American relations.

foreign policy matters were
subordinate to it.
The Philippines have q regi-
mental combat team fighting
in Korea. and the Mexican
government aroused no great
pleasure on the part Of Moscow
when it came up with a pris-
Oner of war proposal that
promptly was rejected by Stain
& Co.
Peorson Boosted
Lester B. Pearson of Canada
also has received considerable
mention as a candidate. In
1945 the United States backed
Pearson as its candidate for the
secretary generalship, and pre-
sumably still would support
him. But again Moscow proba-
bly, would eliminate the Cana
dian by a veto.
This leaves Nasrollah Ente-
Zam of Iran as the last of the
prominently mentioned success
sors to Lie. But the British
apparently will have no part Of
Entezam because of, to put it
IN diplomatic parlance. the deli
cate situation vis-a-vis Iran.
Out, too, because of British
feeling is any Indian candidate.
And. since the Indian prisoner
of-war suggestion was so sound
ly denounced by Moscow, an
Indian candidate possibly would
be persona non grata to the
Russians, as well.
So far, neither the French nor
Nationalist Chinese have made
any open moves to suggest can
didates or support the choices of
other governments. AS a matter
of form, each probably will put
up a candidate without any seri-
GUS belief that, except for un-
foreseen developments, he will
become major contender.
The British would like to have
Pearson fill Lies shoes.
This choice would not make
the United States unhappy, al
though currently the United
States has been gently pushing
the candidacy of Romulo. It is
expected in some circles that
after the Eisenhower admins
tration takes Office, Secretary Of
State-designate Dulles will be-
come the chief proponent Of
Romulo.
Many who have canvassed the
field are reluctantly concluding
there probably is no single man
of stature who could win the
confidence of all the Big Five.
The problem, then, of the
Security Council seems to rest
on finding that individual who
is least Objectionable. In the
meantime. Trygve Lie may con-
tinue in Office longer than he
intended.

Christmas Gift
To85, 900 japanese Here, McCorron Act
Will Open Way to Citizenship at Last
By Lorry Toiiri

Christmas eve will have an
added meaning this year for
Jim Shizuoka of Washington,
D. c., as it will for several hun
dred other Japanese in the Dis
trict and for more than $4,000
Japanese aliens now living in
the United States and Hawaii.
On December "a the con-
troversial McCarran Immigra-
tion and Nationality Act, passed
last June q when Congress
overrode President Truman's
veto, will become law. A fea-
ture of this legislation, one
which was not a matter of con-
troverSy. provides for the elimi-
nation of race barriers to nat
uralization and immigration. AS
a result, resident aliens of Japa-
nese. Korean and certain other
Asian and Polynesian ancestry,
hitherto excluded, will become
eligible for American citizen
ship.
Jim Shizuoka. 40, of TOO Fifth
street NE, is one of those who
have been forced to accept for
many years the anomalous pre-
dicament Of being legally resi-
dent aliens ineligible to natur-
aliZation."
Mr.. Shizuoka has dreamed of
citizenship since 1920, when he
first came to the United States
from Kagoshima in Southern
Japan to study for the ministry.
He graduated from Northwest
Nazarene in Nampa, Idaho, and
entered the ministry after COM
pleting his studies at Princeton
Theological. After a decade of
ministerial service in California
he decided to enter the field of
teaching and received a degree
in religious education from the
University Of Southern Cali
fornia.
Ordered to Evocuote
Jim Shizuoka was teaching
the Japanese language in Los
Angeles when he and more than
115,000 other Pacific Coast resi-
dents of japanese ancestry were
ordered by the Western Defense
Command to evacuate their
homes after Pearl Harbor. The
Japanese-Americans were de-
tanned in 10 relocation centers,
hastily set up in interior areas.
Jim and his wife Ruth, whom
he had married in 1929, went
to the Granada camp in South
eastern Colorado along with
5000 others from the Los
Angeles area.
Race was the only yardstick

of railroad tracks.
It is no secret that the water
front is a great source of in
come both to legitimate mer-
chants and to underworld czars
and their thugs. But the income
for honest operators has been
cut into so severely by gangs
ters that many shippers have
deserted the Port of New York
in recent years and have taken
their business to other harbors.
The mobs, however, have pros
pered with their shakedown
rackets, backed up with looting,
beatings and killings.
Commission Probe
A New York State Crime
Commission has been conduct
ing a long series of hearings in
which the water front racketS
have been described in detail.
Last week the commission and a
city court heard testimony alleg-
ing that several. public officials
had sheltered the racketeers.
Among the prominent persons
named were Fred M. De Sapio,
Mayor of Hoboken, N. j.; John
v. Kenny, Mayor of Jersey City,
Michael M. Borelli. New Jersey
Commissioner of Public Safety,
and William O'Dwyer, former
Mayor Of New York City.
There were quick denials from
the officials. TIL. investigation
continued, however. Any solid
findings will be turned over to
city and State prosecuting at
torneys for legal action.

opening in the long diplomatic
game developing.
Should the Russians, however.
insist on their Pole, at least
one of the other Big Five pre-
sumably would veto him in the
Security Council.
Given much more serious at
tention as a contender for Lies
job is Carlos P. Romulo, Philip
pine Ambassador to the United
States.
Two years ago the Russians
indicated that Romulo would be
an agreeable candidate to them.
and also limited they would be
satisfied with DR.. Luis Padilla
Nervo of Mexico.
Diplomatic observers now feel
that the U. S. S. r. may have
changed its mind regarding
these two. especially since Rus
sia's Vishinsky recently de-
clared in the U. N. that Korea
was the most important single
issue in Moscow and all other
