The Government properly furn- ished them food and shelter ande protection. But it also obliged them to live, more or I as prisoners, inside barbed wire enclosures—and this in the absence of any charge against them or any conviction before a court of law. Under the War Relocation Authority, procedures were set up to sift the loyal from the disloyal and to release in orderly fashion those whose loyalty to the United States could be established beyond ques- tion. This task has by now been nearly completed. Only a few thousand are still to be classified. About In this last category is 22-year-old American- born girl, Mitsuye Endo, for whom the writ of habeas corpus has been sought. The issue in her case is whether it is valid for the Government to confine persons not suspected of any crime or of any intention to harm the United States, The Government itself apparently has grave doukbts as to its right to confine this girl and others like her. It states candidly in its brief that “In view of the importance of the issue, the unprecedented character of this exercise of the war power and the fact that it is not entirely clear that such detention is authorized or constiutional, | the Government will not merely state the arguments indjcating the validity of this detention, but will attempt to explore thoroughly the relevant considera- tions of fact and law ...” The hrief is a tribute to the Justice Department's regard for civil liberties in war- time. It should be noted that this case will not test the validity of detaining the disloyal Japanese-Americans Alonza DeFrance Amos Cameron HOROSCOPE | “The stars incline but do not compel” TUESDAY, APRIL 18 Benefic aspects rule strongly to- gency industrial problems are in- dicated.

DRUG CO. ?l | (Washington Post) Two suits now before the courts of the United | States call into question the manner in which we have dealt with our fellow citizens of Japanese descent. | The Supreme Court has just granted a writ of cer- | tiorari in respect to one of these, known as the Kore- matsu case, testing the validity of the exclusion orders issued by General DeWitt under which all | persons of Japanese ancestry were evacuated from | the West Coast after Pearl Harbor. The evaucation | was held to be constitutional by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals as an emergency measure necessary judicial trial—a most dangerous precedent in these times when certain members of Congress are prone to hurl charges of disloyalty with great recklessness. As to the loyal citizens of Japanese ancestry, we feel that they are helpless victims of the war, entitled to the utmost consideration of their Government. Having removed. these people from their homes, we have a responsibility toward them—a responsibility to protect and to rehabilitate them. They are, and should be considered, war refugees. And the camps in which they live should be, not places of detention, but temporary shelters for their use on a wholly volun- to national security taken under the war powers of the President and Congress.
