James Sakamoto Heads Japanese Press Association

Colleagues on Seattle dailies are congratulating James Y. Sakamoto, editor and publisher of the weekly Japanese-American Courier, on his election last Sunday at San Francisco as president of the new Japanese Press Association of the Pacific Coast. It will hold its next meeting in Seattle in 1936.

"Jimmie," blinded accidentally during participation in athletics at Princeton was a noted athlete at Franklin High School.

His hobby -- and it costs him a lot of time and money is organizing second-generation Japanese and inculcating in them high principles of American citizenship.
