Solons Debate Measure To Denaturalize Japs

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.--(AP)--West Coast congressmen today considered amending a pending immigration committee bill so as to provide that once-disloyal Japanese-Americans could be denaturalized despite a change-of-heart in the face of mounting Japanese defeats.

Representative Leroy Johnson, Republican, California, said the committee bill would apply only to those renunciations made after the bill became a law. He said the group aligned with him wanted to make the bill apply to anyone after October, 1940.
