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.
