DESCRIPTION

Original summary excerpt: The most significant press development of the week is the growing opinion in some quarters that at least part of the fire directed against Japanese-Americans is not genuinely inspred but is part of a political maneuver to divert attention away from the European theater of war. In other words, WRA and Japaense-Americans are being used as convenient scapegoats by political diversionists. the strategy seems to be that mass hatred and fear of all members of the Japanese race on the part of the American public will make them demand more military concentration on the Pacific front.
