WASHINGTON, d. C. March 81
(JACL)-Senator Arthur V. Wat
kins (R.. Utah) introduced at the
request of the Japanese American
Citizens League a general legisla-
ton to restore United States citi-
zenship to those who voted in the
postwar Japanese elections under
the American occupation.
Senator Watkins is chairman of
the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee
on immigration and Naturalization.
His bill provides that any person
who has lost his United States CT
tizenship solely by reason of having
voted i'm the postwar japanese E.
lections prior to the ratification OF
the Treaty of Peace, may by taking
an oath of allegiance to the United
States before any diplomatic or
consular officer abroad, have the
same citizenship status restored as
that which existed immediately pri-
or to its loss because of such voting
The measure specifically provides
that subsequent to such voting the
applicant must not have committed
any act which had he remained a
citizen would have expatriated him
These acts refer mainly to employ
ment available only to the nation
ais of Japan.
The bill also places a two-yeai
deadline on those who desire to take
advantage of the benefits of the le'
gislatiOn.
In most respects, Senator Wat
kins' bill is similar to the one in
troduced last year by Congressman
