Solon Calls Internment Sacrifice To U.S. Cause
Description
U.S. Representative Leland Ford proposed sending all Japanese on the West Coast to concentration camps as a sacrifice of their loyalty to the U.S. Seattle Japanese, however, objected to the idea because they would become wards of the government; and Jimmy Sakamoto, publisher of the Japanese American Courier, stated that evacuation will destroy all that the Japanese had built up.
