Jap Wife Asks Divorce From 'Disloyal' Mate

A Japanese woman, Mrs. Yuki Shinjaku, former Seattle resident now living at the Tule Lake Project in Newell, Calif., who describes herself as "very pro-American," yesterday filed suit for divorce in King County Superior Court from her husband, who, she declared, "is violently pro-Japanese and intends to return to Japan as soon as possible."

"This difference of opinion has led to violent quarrels and makes it impossible for me to live with him," she stated in her complaint. She added that she is about to be transferred to a loyalty center while her husband will remain at the relocation center "until he is sent to Japan." She asked restoration of her maiden name of Yuki Onchi. The couple was married in 1940 at Kent.
