ROSEBURS NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURS, OREGON. THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1942. "T FIVE Japanese to Toil In Beet Fields o0f Eastern Oregon SAN FRANCISCO, May 21 (AP) The first contingent of Japanese farmhands, recruited from the Portland assembly cen ter for the war relocation work corps, were to leave for sugar beet harvesting today as the ar my flashed the green light for a movement of Japanese evacuees back to the farm. The order, issued here by Lieut Gen. J. L. DeWitt, specifies that the volunteers from the Japan ese relocation camps, will not be allowed to work in military area No. 1, from which they had been moved for strategic military reas ons. However, the workers will be permitted in other zones where a great deal of the west's food is raised for the nation. Thus, a supply of experienced farm labor has been made available if the Japanese evacuees respond to the opportunity. rt The Portland group, leaving to day two hundred strong, will work in the eastern Oregon sug ar beet fields, chiefly in "thin i ning" the rows through their ac customed "stoop labor." Walter A. Duffy, regional di rector of the farm security ad ministration, said that negotia tions are being completed for al ' lotment of several Idaho farm labor camps to Japanese workers. A second' group of 200 more Jap anese workers is scheduled to make its departure from Portland on Friday. San Francisco has been cleared of all Japanese but six who are too sick to be moved. For the first time in 81 years not a single Japanese walks the city's streets. The influx of Japanese began in 1861 and boomed by 1867. A Japanese colony was started at Gold Hill, near Sacramento, two years later. In 1872 the first Jap anese consulate opened in San Francisco, t W Then came Pearl harbor and under army orders the city's 5,280 Japanese had to get out of the military zone. Elkton ELKTON, May 20.
