Attorney Geneal Francis Biddle announced that the coastal areas of Calfironia would be off limits to enemy aliens and that they would have to observe the curfew hours.
The Japanese coordinating committee of Mono County in California, noting the movement of some coastal Japanese to interior areas, issued a warning that it was not a good idea because of lack of finances and facilities to accommodate newcomers.
A reception center for Japanese aliens was being prepared at the Owens Valley in an area between Parker Dam and Blythe, California near the Colorado River.
