I ask those Members who may feel that this is a small bill. perhaps an inconsequential bill. affecting denationalization. to stay here and listen to the discussion. I believe this is a fundamental matter in American government. one which will require the serious consideration of the Congress sometime in the near future. The bill to which I refer comes from the Committee on Immigration and proposes to put into the law a means for the denationalization of the Japanese. This is a question of serious interest and importance to the citizens of California because we had in California some 122.000 of the approximately 140.000 Japanese in the United States. I have sensed either a lack of interest in the subject on the part of those people who live in areas where there are few. if any.
