DUAL CITIZENSHIP PRESENTS
OBSTACLE TO JAP AMITY
HONOLULU, T. H , OCT. 28
Dnal citizenship of Japanese born
in America, while recognized as an
irritant and obstacle to complete
amity between the two nations
probably will continue until the
Japanese government modifies its
policy to military conscription or
until Hawaii and the continental
United States come to recognize
that dual loyalty is inimical to
Americanism and a deterrent to
the assimilation of American born
children of Japanese, in the opinion
of Dr. T. Harada, professor of
Japanese history and literature at
the University of Hawaii, who has
just returned from an extensive
tour of the continental United
States.
“Japan is only following the
example of many European coun
tries in holding that her nationals
are bound by blood ties rather
than by birth ties aid in regarding
as nationals all persons of Japanese '
descent unless the individual re- ;
patriates himself before the age of:
17 or after the age of 35 years,"
Dr. Harada said. “The American ■
law is pecular in this respect as ,
America claims as citizens alf per
sons born on her soil.
“If the Japanese government sees .
fit and deems it necessary to pro-!
jl
mote amity with America to modi
fy her conscription requirements, I
then perhaps some method will be
evolve! to release from fealty her
Am .rican citizens of Japanese j
blood. Failing this, the end of dual j
citizenship can be brought about <
only through education of Japanese J
parents in America and their chil
dren to make them realize that
dual citizenship is inherently for
eign to American ideals and pre- I
ventative of the complete American- t
ization of their children.” v
