Japanese Relocation Order
<sub>February 19, 1942

(Federal Register, Vol. VII, No. 38)


EXECUTIVE ORDER
Authorizing the Secretary of War to
Prescribe Military Areas

Whereas the successful prosecution of the war requires every possible
protection against espionage and against sabotage to national-defense
materials, national-defense premises, and national-defense utilities. . .
Now, therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me as President
of the United States, and Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy, I hereby
authorize and direct the Secretary of War, and the Military Commanders whom
he may from time to time designate, whenever he or any designated Commander
deems such action necessary or desirable, to prescribe military areas in such
places and of such extent as he or the appropriate Military Commander may
determine, from which any or all persons may be excluded, and with respect to
which, the right of any person to enter, remain in, or leave shall be subject
to whatever restrictions the Secretary of War or the appropriate Military
Commander may impose in his discretion. The Secretary of War is hereby
authorized to provide for residents of any such area who are excluded
therefrom, such transportation,, food, shelter, and other accommodations as
may be necessary, in the judgment of the Secretary of War or the said Military
Commander, and until other arrangements are made, to accomplish the purpose of
this order. The designation of military areas in any region or locality shall
supersede designation of prohibited and restricted areas by the Attorney
General under the Proclamations of December 7 and 8, 1941, and shall supersede
the responsibility and authority of the Attorney General under the said
Proclamations in respect of such prohibited and restricted areas.
I hereby further authorize and direct the Secretary of War and the
said Military Commanders to take such other steps as he or the appropriate
Military Commander may deem advisable to enforce compliance with the
restrictions applicable to each Military area hereinabove authorized to be
designated, including the use of Federal Troops and other Federal Agencies,
with authority to accept assistance of state and local agencies.
I hereby further authorize and direct all Executive departments,
independent establishments and other Federal agencies, too assist the
Secretary of War or the said Military Commanders in carrying out this
Executive Order, including the furnishing of medical aid, hospitalization,
food, clothing, transportation, use of land, shelter, and other supplies,
equipment, utilities, facilities, and services. . . .

. Although the Japanese Americans had been in the U.S. for over fifty years, they were still building their lives. The internment left the Japanese Americans homeless, unemployed, and with the problem of planning their future, issues that faced the Issei when they first moved into the U.S. They had lost millions of dollars in income and property and now they wanted to be compensated for their losses. In 1947, Edison Uno, who as a teenager spent years in a camp, demanded redress and reparations because the U.S. Government had violated his constitutional rights. In 1978, Clifford Uyeda began a national movement to obtain monetary damages for the Japanese Americans who had been imprisoned during World War II. In March of 1983, a lawsuit was filed by the National Council for Japanese American Redress claiming that there hadn't been any military necessity during World War II that caused the imprisonment of thousands of Japanese Americans. Federal Judge Oberdorfer dismissed the case because of the Statute of Limitations. He did, however, acknowledge that there was evidence of misconduct by the U.S. Government in regard to military necessity. Although the lawsuit was not successful, it did cause the government to act. In 1983, a Commission was formed to investigate Executive Order 9066. It concluded that the Japanese Internment was illegal and morally wrong. In 1988, President Reagan signed the Civil Liberties Act, which issued a national apology to the Japanese Americans admitting that they had been imprisoned because of racism, poor leadership, and war hysteria.

In 1989, President Bush signed a bill that gave each internee a tax-exempt, one-time payment of $20,000 in retribution for its inhumane mistake. The U.S. had finally admitted that it had interned many U.S. citizens and denied them their civil rights. Besides the monetary payment, the government pardoned any person who violated the restrictions placed upon Japanese Americans as a result of the internment. Although the Japanese Americans had been stripped of their homes and their possessions, and their rights had been violated, they never lost their self respect. They held on to their pride and dignity. "The evacuation did not disgrace those who went but those who sent them."

Here are just a few Executive Orders associated with FEMA that would suspend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These Executive Orders have been on record for nearly 30 years and could be enacted by the stroke of a Presidential pen:


EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001 allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation. General Frank Salzedo, chief of FEMA's Civil Security Division stated in a 1983 conference that he saw FEMA's role as a "new frontier in the protection of individual and governmental leaders from assassination, and of civil and military installations from sabotage and/or attack, as well as prevention of dissident groups from gaining access to U.S. opinion, or a global audience in times of crisis."
