Title	Expatriation of Certain Nationals of the United States
Summary	Congressional hearings in Jan. and Feb. 1944 on several bills, H.R. 2701, 3012, 3446, and 3489, proposing (1) expatriation of Japanese-Americans who under oath expressed loyalty to Japan and (2) creation of a Japanese Deportation Commission. The bills were largely the result of a questionnaire given to some 40,000 residents of relocation centers asking them to swear unqualified alliegiance to the United States, defend it from all attack, and forswear any form of allegiance to Japan. Statements include some discussion of the relocation centers as well as a letter from the War Relocation Agency providing the results of the questionnaire and the complexities behind the answers given. Statements are given by Harry R. Sheppard, Clair Engle, J. Leroy Johnson, W.F. Norrell, Sam M. Russell, Francis Biddle, John H. Provinse, R.W. Flournoy Jr., and Herman P. Eberharter.
