AS for the yen claims, the COM
mittee report pointed out that since
they are payable in yen and since
they may be cashed at their full
present yen value in Japan, the u
nited States has no moral obligation
! to pay these claims.
THE most the claimant can Sc
cure through payment under Sect
ion "a (of the Trading with the E.
nemy Act) is the present dollar va
lue of their yen. AS result of the
postwar devaluation of the yen, the
Office of Alien Property estimates
that payments will average consid-
cradle less than $25 per claim and
that the administrative cost of pro-
cessing the claims will be dispropor-
tionate to the returns to be made"
the judiciary committee report de-
clares.
MaSaoka explained that while
JACL would try to preent the pas
sage of this legislation in order to
insure every claimant consideration
of his claim, JACL is not suggesting
that the Office Of Alien Property is
obligated to repay these claims at
more than the current exchange
rate of the yen. The matter of pay
ment and the rate of exchange is
another matter. What we are i'm
mediately faced with is the problem
of enabling legislation which would
for all practical purposes eliminate
all yen claims against this govern
ment, Masaoka concluded.
The Northwest times. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1947-1955, 1953-08-01

cause they didn't know the bar dates
or became involved in occupation
red tape, never had an opportunity
to file their claims. This is just
and meritorious legislation and
should be approved by Congress,
Masaoka said.
The JACL-endorsed bill, on the
other hand, exclude Japanese gov
eminent bonds of most kinds and
all yen debt claims because they
axe obligations expressed or paya-
BILE in other than the currency of
the United States. If this bill be-
comes law, perhaps as many as
10000 Essei and Nisei would be de-
prived of their right to have their
claims adjudicated by the Depart
ment of Justice, the Washington
JACL representative estimated. To
his mind, the whole procedure may
be an unconstitutional deprivation
of property without due process.
This bill was proposed by Senator
Everett Mckinley Dirksen (R., ILL j.,
chairman of a special subcommittee
of the judiciary committee which
spent six months investigating the
Office of Alien Property With the
approval of the Assistant Attorney
General who is director of this Of
flee, the Illinois senator sponsored
this bill to eliminate these minor
claims which constitute more than
half of the workload of the agency
and which do not have the required
funds to repay all the claims against
them.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. l
tJACL)-Bills to extend the dead
line for filing claims against the
Office of Alien Property and to ex-
clude yen debt claims from consi-
deration by that agency have been
reported by the Senate judiciary
committee, the Washington office
of the japanese American Citizens
League announced today.
The JACL is i'm favor of the ex-
tension but opposed to the exclusion,
Mike Masaoka, Washington JACL
representative, said.
The bills are among those report
ed by the judiciary committee and
placed on the Senate calendar. Hope
has been expressed that the Senate
at least will be able to act upon
them by unanimous consent before
adjournment, which may come by
the end of this week.
Inc JACL-endorsed bill would
extend the time for filing claims for
the return of property vested by
this government during wartime
under the Trading with the Enemy
Acts for year after the bill be-
comes law or two years after the
vesting of the property, whichever
is the later.
Many Issei and Nisei, both in this
country and in Japan, failed to file
claims against teh government for
the return of their property because
they were never informed of the
deadline nor notified that they had
to file claims. Many in Japan, be-

Large. completely plain lawns
are certainly not unpleasant to
look at, but they never make as
good a show as a lawn with some
kind Of an interest piece in the
center Of it.
A pool or a circular inclosure
for bed of ivy or some special
planting are often most striking.
A substantial arrangement Of
this type is quite easy to make
and not at all expensive.
The first step is to establish
the diameter Of the circle. This
should be in proportion to the
area of the lawn. With this set

The space between is filed

After this has set, common brick
is laid in rowlock course on top
of it. If a pool to hold water is
desired, a 1-inch thickness of

The Alabama Senator said
this excerpt indicated to him
that Mr.. Cole opposed slum
clearance, as well as public
housing; and the research
program and other aspects Of
the present program as well.
MIR. Cole replied that he was
not opposed to slum clearance
at all.
Senator Sparkman," he
said. II suppose my funda-
mental philosophy in connec-
ton with that bill, or any
other bill which was presented
to ~e as a member of the
House, was this: Between the
measure and my own thinking.
it was not a question Of
whether we should do it, it
was a question of how we
should do it.
''For my part, I felt it was
important. tremendously inn
portant, one of the most i'm
portant things I could do as
long as I was in Congress, to
prevent the Federal Govern
ment from strangling the
people of America.
Nov, that is the whole
fundamental philosophy be-
hind my attack on some OF
these programs. It is not that
they cannot be done. OF
course, we can do things to
help the people. We should
do them and we must do them.
However, from my point OF
view, I want to see to it that
we do not take from the people
the right to live where they
want to live and how they
want to live and under the
circumstances they want to
live. That is the fundamental
attitude as I approached these
issues in Congress"
SENATOR SPARKMAN-I
will be perfectly frank with
you. I fail to get from your
answer a satisfactory explana-
ton of that statement which
you made in which you in
cluded slum clearance and
your statement here today that
you are in favor of slum clear
ance.
Are you in favor Of slum
clearance as it is written today,
into the law?
MR.. COLE-I do not know.
I suppose I would probably
change some Of it; who would
not?
SENATOR SPARKMAN-I
mean, in general.
MIR. COLE-I would say so.
in general.
SENATOR SPARKMAN -
What about the research title
that you referred to critically
here as helping to develop this
thread that would essentially
strangle American life?
MR.. COLE-That might.
SENATOR SPARKMAN -
You have seen it function for
four or five years. What do
you think about it?
MR.. COLE-Senator, a lit
tie research, a little housing,
a little assistance, a little con-
troll, could not strangle Amer
lea; of course not. It could
not possibly do it. What I.
the minority member inter-
ested in maintaining the free
dom of the people Of America,
was concerned about was
whether or not we should de-
velop here in Washington a
Frankenstein which would take
from the people their liber-
ties.

the hearing it was usual to
have some one who is sympa-
