LAD #35

      After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Japanese discrimination grew. All american's who had any Japanese ancestry were to be put in relocation internment camps. FDR states that all japanese americans be relocated to Southern Arizona. This was a violation of most rights, but to most people during this time the japanese americans were a "clear and present danger" which made this executive order okay and present through out the entire war. He ordered all Executive departments to comply and carry out this executive order and provide "medical aid, hospitalization, food, clothing, transportation, use of land, shelter, and other supplies, equipment, utilities, facilities and services."
