still In a corridor," on sailor

Seattle Japanese took a mass
plcdgo of allegiance to the United

Superior Judge Clay Allen
told them:
"You were born In the United
States, hundreds of you. But you
still look oriental. Perhaps, you
feel, now, that your country has
repudiated you. That Is not true.
"I think you are the most
