Wirin, of Los Angeles, Cal., and Dean G. Acheson, Washington, D.C., for petitioners. Everett W. Mattoon, Duane Judge Carnes, San Diego, respondents. [Argument Counsel from page 634 intentionally omitted] Mr. Chief Justice VINSON delivered the opinion Court. 1 Petitioners challenge constitutionality California's Alien Land Law1 as it has been applied in this case to effect an escheat two small parcels agricultural land.2 One petitioners is Fred Oyama, a minor American citizen whose name title was taken. The other his father guardian, Kajiro Japanese not eligible naturalization,3 who paid purchase price. 2 press three attacks on Law case: first, that deprives Oyama equal protection laws privileges citizen; secondly, denies laws; and, thirdly, contravenes due process clause by sanctioning taking property after expiration applicable limitations period. Proper foundation these claims laid proceedings below. 3 In approaching cases, such one, which federal constitutional rights are asserted, incumbent us inquire merely whether those have denied express terms, but also they substance effect. We must review independently both legal issues factual matters with commingled.4 4 broad outline, forbids aliens ineligible citizenship acquire, own, occupy, lease, or transfer land.5 It provides any acquired violation statute shall date acquisition6 same result follow made 'intent prevent, evade avoid' escheat.7 addition, intent presumed, prima facie, whenever alien pays consideration alien.8 5 first question, consisting six acres land southern California, purchased 1934, when years old. $4,000 consideration, seller executed deed Fred. duly recorded. 6 Some months later, petitioned Superior Diego County be appointed Fred's stating owned acres.
