The new, permanent Wing Luke Museum exhibit will cover 10 groups: Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Korean, Vietnamese, Cambodian, Laotian, other Southeast Asians, South Asians and Pacific Islanders.
Article discusses brief history of immigration and citizenship of Japanese in America and addresses the concern of where loyalties would stand if there were a war.
Missionaries, students, and business people, mostly Japanese American, return home on a voyage organized at the last minute. Many state their opinions on the war and what they had observed in Japan. Most returned due to frozen bank accounts.
