The Bee article said: "These cars represent a mar ket value of from $10,000,000 to $12,500,000 on a basis of $500 a car. But of more importance during the rubber shortage, they carry from 100,000 to 125,000 tires made out of good rubber. Their owners are in Japanese relocation centers in California and other states under federal government care. "Before they left for these centers, however, they carefully stored their autos, passenger and trucks. They jacked them up, put blocks under axles, removed the batteries and deflated the tires to about 10 pounds, a press ure which tire experts say will keep tires indefinitely or with very little depreciation. In many cases they removed the tires en tirely and put them in the cars.

"These revealing facts came to light when OPA investigators started checking for excess tires and found two buildings in West Fresno, owned by Japanese now in . relocation centers. They house more than 100 cars in ex cellent condition, all belonging to the Japanese, and the cars are not for sale. These investi gators know where there are several hundred more Japanese owned cars stored in Fresno county." SACRAMENTO, Calif., Jan. 29 (IP) Sen. Jack B. Tenney, Los Angeles, chairman of the legislative committee on un American activities has an nounced his group would launch an inquiry into the status and disposition of Japanese-owned automobiles. "We certainly have jurisdic tion to look into this matter." he said. "Something should be done at once to put these cars into service.
