DAv Aid Funds
For TB Movie

The leaders and membership of
Disabled American Veterans hope
that the DAV will die a natural
death in the next one hundred
years due to the lack of veterans
who are eligible for membership.
That statement was made today
by Albert Negoff, Commander of
the Western Reserve Chapter No.
127 whose membership comes from
the Cleveland's Eastern and South
eastern suburbs.
"No one is more interested in
world peace than the man who has
engaged in war and returned with
part of his body missing or his
health permanently impaired" he
said, adding "if there were no dis
abled veterans, the DAV would
have no reason for existence"
Commander Negoff also reported
on Cuyahoga Council activities,
stating that the DAV is helping
finance a technicolor film on
Tuberculosis Surgery, to be made
at Grille Hospital. He also asks for
pocketbook editions and comic
books for Brecksville Hospital.
Since, after being read by a TB
patient, these books are burned to
prevent spreading of tuberculosis,
the demand constantly exceeds the
supply.
On Sunday evening, March 23rd,
the members of Western Reserve
Chapter will help entertain Vet
erans at Grille Hospital. Auxiliary
members will bake cookies for this
event.

2Private Bills,
One for US Rights,
Passed by SolOnS

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 5
(JACL ADC)-The Senate passed
twelve private bills for the relief of
persons of japanese ancestry. the
Washington office of the JACL An
Discrimination Committee re-
ported today.
OF the twelve private bills passed
six were for the relief of adopted
children, three for purposes of mar
riage, one admitting a minor in the
custody of an American citizen. one
for permanent residence of widow
of an American soldier, and one
restoring the citizenship rights lost
by voting in the japanese elections.
Senator Warren G.. Magnuson
Cd, WASH introduced the bill to
restore to Hisako Hanabata her A
merican citizenship, which she lost
as a result of voting in the Japanese
elections in 1916 and 1947. The res
JOTdJlOu VI bilc CIGlAtllSlllp oldtuo
will permit her to return to the u
nited States.
Mike Masaoka, national JACL
ADO legislative director. declared
that general legislation sponsored
by the JACL ADO, providing for the
restoration of American citizenship
of Nisei who lost their citizenship
rights as result of voting in the
Japanese elections, has been intro
duced by Congressman Chef Holt
field 3D., Calif). I'm view OF the
number of people involved and the
obvious impossibility of getting pri-
vate bills passed for the relief of
each one of them" stated Masao-
ka. I'VE hope we can secure in the
very near future general legislation
for the relief of these Nisei, who
were disfranchised. not for any will
full misdeed but because of their ig-
norance of the law"
The bills now go to the House for
concurrence.
