Complete and clear explan

quirements as contained in a pro
clamation issued bv the presi

age of 1-t or over must obtain
special Certificates of Identifica

was given over radio station
KLNY recently by United Stat
es Attorney William A. Holz
heimer, representing the United
States Department of Justice.
The term alien enemy was
clearly defined as applying to
any person of German, Italian or
Japanese nationality, citizens or
subjects of those countries with
f which we arc formally at war,
who are no living in the Unit
ed States. This annlies regardless
of whether they have lived here
for a generation or only a few
months and regardless of whe
ther or not they have taken our
first or even second naturaliza
tion papers, so long as they have
not fully acquired United States
citizenship.
Explains Term
Judge Holzheimer explained
that the term “alien enemy” may
easily be a purely technical term
as the Department of Justice is
well aware that the great ma
jorty of our German. Italian and
Japanese aliens are loyal to this
country as illustrated hv the fact
that the FBI has found it neces
sary to apprehend only slight y

less than one-half of one per
--
cent.
He further clearly explained
the importance of registration to
both the national government
and to the “alien” himself and
urged all persons, who had ac
quaintances with anyone to
whom the regulations apply to
assist in explaining the import
ance of compliance and the pro
cedure to follow in obtaining the
Identification Certificates.
That the possession of an
* Identification Certificate by a
technical enemy a’ien in no way
labels him as on enemy or as
dsloya! to this country was stress
ed by Judge Holzheimer.
Procedure to Follow
The procedure which is to be
followed to obtain the Identific
ation Certificates in much the
same as that followed in the reg
ulad alien registration program
held during the fall and winter
of 1940, Judge Holzheimer said.
Anyone to whom the law ap
plies should first go to any post
office and get printed instructions
which should be stud:ed cnrefu1
dy. he said. The next step is to go
to the nearest post office to one's
residence rind explain to the at
tendant th3t one wishes to file ap
plication for a Certificate of
Tdent'fiction. This must be done
between the dates mentioned.
Before the “enemy alien" fi'es
his application he must look up
the receipt card which was is
sued at the time of the regular
alien registration in 1940. If this
has been lost or not received,
the enemv alien should write
immediately to the A’ien K< gis
tration Division in Washington,
giving the name, nationality, pre
sent address, the address were
registered ard place in which
registered. Judge Holzheimer
said. However, in any case the en
emv alien must go to the post
office during the requ'red period
and explain what he is doing ‘o
obtain the required receipt curl
Photographs Required
The only expense that should
be incurred in procuring an
Identifiction Card should be that
needed to procure the necessarv
photographs. Judge Holzheimer
said. These must be three un
mounted photographs of the , p
plicant, two inches by two in
ches in size, showing full face
without hat against a light h ue.
ground and can best be obtained
from photographers who mc-k“
them according to regulations for
a small sum.
“The Pre: o nf " ‘he Un *• d
States thro* gh h:s Attornev-Gcn
eral, ha.* given his solemn as
surance to enemy aliens that
they need not few their weM
bc:r g so long as *h-w ob«orv‘ our
laws. The Department of Janice
is adequately equipped to take
care of those who do not. V is
therefore up to you. the citi
zens of this country, of thi_- state
and district, to fulfill the Presi
dent's oath by refra:n:ng from
any act of oppression or disar m
ination against persons of foreign
birth. Democracy will be preserv
! ed at home as well as abroad if
you will be girded by that prin
ciple,” he concluded.
