upon the community. And while authorities and committees are struggling with details to see that every Jap who surrenders a business or a farm receives proper equity, each day new arrests of suspected aliens are made,

Patriotic Japanese Help

To meet the military problem of preventing sabotage, here are a few of the purely domestic civilian problems in which this area finds itself enmeshed: Apart from the farmers and scattered Japanese, “Little Tokyo” is a section many blocks square in the heart of Los Angeles. It's a small town itself, containing clothing stores, .shoe stores, movies, beauty shops, grocery stores, drug stores, a bank, hotel, apartment building. All of this must be liquidated. A trip through “Little Tokyo” already reveals many empty shops

and stores. Special sale signs are everywhere and some of the merchants advertise “co-operative sales.” The educated and patriotic Japanese are co-operating with the authorities in urging voluntary evacuation before deadlines are established.

Mexican Labor Sought

All of this represents a tremens dous turn-over in real estate, leases. and goods, one shoe store owner, for instance, having $85,000 worth of stock on hand. There is deep anxiety over the lateress of the hour, not only from a delense standpoint, but from a crop standpoint. An overwhelming proportion of the vegetable or truck farms in this area are Japaneseowned or employ Japanese labor. In addition to the loss of ripe crops which have been abandoned, the Jap farmers still remaining are not

Unpicked Vegetables Left to Die in Southern California = As Aliens Begin Exodus; Problem Brings

Headaches.

(This is the third of a series of dispatches from the Pacific coast “war front.”)

By FRED S. FERGUSON President of NEA Service

LOS ANGELES, March 20.—It sounds simple enough to say “evacuate the Japanese,” but southern California finds itself in the throes of one of the most complicated tasks of its existence as it moves toward getting some 50,000

It would probably be easy enough if Nazi methods were followed. The aliens would merely be loaded into trucks and hauled ‘away and the American-born

domestic prejudices and domestic problems arising from the removal of the Japs, have led to delay, endless committee meetings, bickering, arguing and name-calling. The Jap problem is in everybody's hair. The light is beginning to dawn, however, and the real exodus should soon be

‘Meantime, many—possibly

hundreds—of American-born Japanese have already gone. worth of unpicked vegetable crops and flowers have been left shriveling in the fields. The cars and trucks of these Japanese farmers, who liquidated their leases and drove away, are headed mostly for the sugar-beet section of

putting in new crops because of the coming evacuation. Hence, time is short for the ese tablishment of new. tenants if the crop level is to be maintained. After the Japs are gone it is hoped the Mexican labor may take their place on the farms.

Crop Peril Recognized

The crop danger was officially recognized. in an official caution from headquarters when Gen. De« Witt of the western defense comsmand urged the Japanese not to make hasty disposition of their farms, shops, residences or other property and to continue to work on their crops until such time as exclusion is officially ordered. The question of where the Japs would be sent brought on as fine a flare-up of expression of selfish ine terest from a number of quarters as you'd find in a day’s travel anywhere. Governors of certain sure rounding states proclaimed to the wide-open spaces that the Japs couldn't be sent to their domains. Nobody, not even California come munities back of the mountains, would have them. There were com= mittee meetings and committee meetings. Meantime the army, however, had a plan. And then one fine day, from out of the mountains came a quiet« spoken man named Robert Brown, of the Inyo-Mono Association of Owens Valley, which is about 150 miles from Los Angeles. He spoke for his people of the town of Bishop—population 1100—and for Independence and Love Pine, population 100 each, and, lo and behold, Mr, Brown said Owens valley would be glad to have some Japs and it so happened that Owens valley was what the army had in mind all the time.
