do. It's a question of whether the white man lives on the Pacific Coast or
the brown men. They came into this valley to work, and they stayed to take
over... If all the Japs were removed tomorrow, we'd never miss them in two
weeks, because the white farmers can take over and produce everything the
Jap grows. And we do not want them back when the war ends, either."
"I am for the immediate removal of every Japanese on the West Coast to a
point deep in the interior. I don't mean a nice part of the interior either.
Herd 'em up, pack 'em off and give 'em the inside room in the badlands...
Personally, I hate the Japanese. And that goes for all of them."
"A viper is nonetheless a viper wherever the egg is hatched.... So, a
Japanese American born of Japanese parents, nurtured upon Japanese
traditions, living in a transplanted Japanese atmosphere... notwithstanding
his nominal brand of accidental citizenship almost inevitably and with the
rarest exceptions grows up to be a Japanese, and not an American.... Thus,
while it might cause injustice to a few to treat them all as potential
enemies, I cannot escape the conclusion... that such treatment... should be
accorded to each and all of them while we are at war with their race." |
