C.I.O. CONDEMNS NISEI ATTACKS

LOS ANGELES, June 2. -- (UP) -- The Congress of Industrial Organizations' district Auto & Aircraft Council today condemned attacks on Japanese-Americans and urged the governors of California, Oregon and Washington to "take public steps" to prevent further terrorism.

The union said action of a Placer County, Calif., jury in aquitting [acquitting] three persons accused of terrorizing Japanese-Americans was "detrimental to the welfare of our loyal citizens, many of whom are honorably discharged veterans of this war or have sons and relatives in service."
