WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. II
(JACL ADC)-As the 82nd Con-
gress began it's second session, Re9.
Francis E. Walter 3D., Pa, chair
man of the Subcommittee on Immi-
grafton and Naturalization, inform
ed Mike Masaoka, national legisla-
tive director of the JACL Anti-Dis-
elimination Committee, that the
first major item of new business to
be considered by the House Judici-
arv committee probably would be
his Omnibus immigration and Ma
turalization Bill.
The sponsor of the proposed revi-
sion and codification of the immi-
grafton laws thought that by the
end of this month the full commit
ee might be able to report out his
bill for House action.
On the Senate side, Masaoka re-
ported that Senator Pat McCarran
Cd, New, author of companion
measure and chairman of the Judi
ciary committee, would not arrive
in Washington for another two
weeks or more. The Nevada Demo-
crat has been hospitalized with a
heart attack but is now fully reco-
vered. He is resting before return
ing to the nations capital where an
arduous legislative work load a
waits him.
Both omnibus bills feature JACL
ADC-endorsed provisions for the re-
peal of racial determinations in
immigration and naturalization by
extending immigration quotas to
Japan and other Asian countries
and authorizing the naturalization
of all legally admitted permanent
resident aliens, the Overwhelming
majority of whom are of Japanese
ancestry.

workers.
Four-year-o Nancy, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert B. Snyder
of Seattle, is coming back fast al
ter a bout with polio that started
when she was 10 months old.
Nancy is a symbol of the hun

by putting their contributions in
their dime cards and returning
them to the postman.

End of Race Bias in immigration Bills

sion for Issei who have now re-
turned to the United States after
being stranded in Japan to file
claims. and the return of gifts, de-
vices. and insurance benefits of A
merican citizens to nationals resi-
ding in Japan. Most of these a
mendments were introduced as bills
in the last session Of Congress. o.
theirs are being prepared for intro
duction this month.
Sixth, is the extension of the So
called Soldier Brides Act. The pre-
sent statute providing that the ra-
cially ineligible alien spouses and
minor children of American service
men and veterans may be admitted
into the United States for p5rma-
nent residence expires March ID,
1852. With the Korean fighting
threatening to continue and with
American troops to be stationed in
Japan for several more years, an
extension of the marriage dead
line may be necessary unless the
Omnibus immigration AND Natu-
ralization Bill becomes Jaw and
non-quota status is established for
the spouses of all American citi-
zens.
Seventh, is the naturalization OF
alien Japanese now serving in the
United States armed forces. An a
mendment to existing law is ne
cessary to enable alien Japanese
who have served and are serving in
the armed forces during the Kor-
can fighting to become naturally
ed American citizens Such an a
mendment, sponsored by the JACL
ADO. enabled several alien Japa-
nese who served during World War
II to become naturalized citizens.
Eighth, is to restore seniority and
other rights and privileges to Nj
sci federal civil service employees,
especially postal workers, who we're
separated from the service because
of evacuation Several bills for
this purpose we're introduced in 1851
and are pending at the present time
in the Civil Service committees OF
the House and the Senate.
Ninth, is to expedite the natura-
lization of Nisei who lost their A
merican citizenship by voting in the
postwar japanese elections which
we're conducted under American oc-
cupation authorities, A bill for this
purpose is now under study by the
House Judiciary subcommittee on
immigration and Naturalization
Tenth, is neral legislation for
civil rights and for promoting hui
man decenOs and dignity These
include fair employment practices,
repeal of poll taxes, assuring equal

When the original ceiling prices
on soaps we're set last March, in
flation had driven up costs of tai

Since that time, raw material costs
have fallen so sharply that ceilings
on soap are way out OF line with
the actual selling prices
The ceilings apply to all sales Of
soaps, cleansers, and synthetic de

In making this photograph, Mr..
Shaw used q reflex camera equip

q Verichrome 4 by 8 filmpack.
Since a time exposure was neces-
sary. the camera was set on a
tripod at about the height Of the

other words. at about eye level.
The general lighting of the pull
pit was that pervading the in
terror Of the cathedral. accentuat-
ed only by a single electric light
placed high in the vaulted nave.
The illumination was tested by a
Weston meter. The lens was To-
cussed at f:6.3 on the central
bas-relief; the aperture was then
closed to 1884, thus bringing the
entire pulpit into sharp focus. The
hugh masonry columns. the choir
screen and portion of the chan
eel arch make an imposing and
appropriate background for the
pulpit. On account of the selec-
tive focusing on the face of the
pulpit, the entire background re-
mains in soft focus, becoming
more diffuse with increasing dis
lance

two minutes was made, using the

ing visitors. The lens was capped
during the transit Of people be-

film was developed with a dilute

increase the separation of the left

Remember that when you get

give you an entirely accurate view
of the picture you will actually

Adjust for this difference and
your composition will be what you
expect it to be. On the medium
shots that show the entire horse
