porters not to attempt to ask
any catch questions and Madame
Chiang said she was sure she
would not be heckled with any.
She said she had been on all
the active war fronts in China
and never had known the fear
of Japanese swords, but she was
not quite sure whether she was
afraid to face the American press

FDR Agrees to
Use of Soldiers
At Harvest Time
' WASHINGTON, Feb. 19 VP)
Chairman Fulmer (D-S.C.) of the
house agriculture committee said
today President Roosevelt has
agreed to permit the use of sol
diers to help harvest crops where
there is a shortage of farm labor.
Returning from a conference
with the president, Fulmer said
the chief executive endorsed in
principle a provision of legisla
tion introduced recently by Ful
mer to relieve the farm labor
shortages. It is his understand
ing, he said, that the president
feels there is no need for legis
lation to use troops for harvest
ing and that the matter could
be handled by executive order
or army regulations. ,

Body of Dan Arkell
Found 18 Miles
North of Reedsport
The body of Dan Arkell, skip
per of the crab fishing boat,
Truxillo, was found 18 miles
north of Reedsport Thursday
night, according to word re
ceived here. The young man,
son of John Arkell of Klamath
Agency, special Indian officer,
was lost in a storm off the Ump
qua river, February 1.
Remains were removed to a
Reedsport mortuary by Coroner
Harry Stearns and the Umpqua
coast guard crew. The body was
found on the beach by a soldier.
Second member of the Truxillo
crew, Max Kincart, is still miss
ing. Portions of the boat have
washed ashore.
JAP EXCLUSION
(Continued From Page One)
Japanese in the case, recited the
history of the laws and procla
mations under which the ex
clusion was carried out Another
case concerning the taking of
Japanese voters from the rolls
will be heard later.
Collins attacked the two fed
eral laws as well as the procla
mations made under it. Frank
L. Walters, another attorney
representing the Japanese, also
declared the two laws were un
constitutional and charged that
the internment was ordered with
out hearing and that there was
discrimination because of race
and color.
Collins quoted from Lincoln's
Gettysburg address that this-
country was "dedicated to the
proposition that all men are
created equal." He read a clip
ping from a paper published at
the Manzanar Japanese reloca
tion center quoting President
Roosevelt as saying in reference
to proposal to have Japanese
combat units:
War Emergency
"Americanism is a matter of
mind or heart, not a matter of
ancestry."
Judge William Denman asked
Collins if he was making a state
ment or fact for all three cases
and the attorney said yes.
"But you say nothing about
the war emergency,'' the judge
said.
Collins replied that would
come up later. -
Walters argued that they were
really representing all ofjthe
70,000 Japanese American cit
izens who were "viciously and
unlawfully interned without
hearing.' He said if it can be
done to one minority group it
could be done to Chinese,
negroes, Jews and "all of us."
Three Casts
Three cases involving Amer
ican-born Japanese convicted of
violating Lieut Gen. John L.
DeWitt s curfew and exclusion
orders were consolidated for the
hearing. Another case chal
lenged the right of Japanese
citizens to vote.
Attacking the validity of Gen
eral DeWitt's order were Minoru
Yasui, 27, of Hood River, Ore.;
Fred T. Korematsu, 23, of San
Leandro, Calif., and Gordon Koy
oshi Hirabayashi, of Seattle.
I feel certain that the day for
the liberation of my people is

Eugene Police
Seek Dog-Hating
"Gardener"
EUGENE, Feb. 19 (Eu
gene police were still without a
clue today to the identity of an
anonymous "gardener" who yes
terday sent a letter to the Register-Guard
announcing a "declar
ation of war on dogs."
The letter, written in a meticu
lous hand, said: "We have put
up for years now with people's
dogs destroying our flowers and
shrubs. But it is going to be
different this year as it is about
time to put in our war gardens.
So we have declared war on all
dogs, regardless of size, color, or
who owns them."
The letter was received the
day after the- Lane County Hu
mane society offered a $100 re
ward for the apprehension of a
dog-poisoner who has been
spreading strychnine-filled mor
sels of meat and bread, thus far
taking the lives of six dogs.
