He is today Ambassador from Korea. Dr. Y. C. Yang. He would undoubtedly have been an American citizen then if it- were not for the racial restrictions in our immigration laws. But because of them not only was he not an American citizen. but technically he was an alien enemy and subject of Japan. It was necessary. therefore. to dispense with his services. These racial restrictions have no place In our naturalization and immigration laws. They have done us untold injury in the past. They will be damaging in the future if they are allowed to remain. This bill proposes that all of them be eliminated.
