DESCRIPTION

Original summary excerpt: Reports of the Tule Lake center eclipsed all other WRA news this week, and in several cases merited extra editions. Stories of the Monday, Nov. 1 disturbance became front page news as did succeeding reports of Army control of the center, after violence flared up briefly on the evening of Nov. 4 (Thursday). Headline banners of the Tule Lake situation replaced war news in many West Coast papers and even in several Mid-West and Eastern editions. All reports were uniformly conspicuous in their misuse of the term "internee" for evacuee or segregant. Most of them, however, brought out the point that Tule Lake is a center for "disloyal Japanese".
