Concentration Camp Law Abolished By Congress On Sept. 16, the U.S. Senate approved by voice vote legislation that had passed by a vote of 356 to 49 in the House two days f'arlier, authorizing the repeal of the notorious Emergency Detention Act of 1950, the "Concentration Camp Law?' In addition to repealing the 1950 law, the language of the repeal act, drahed by Sena­ tor Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii), specifically prohibits action such as that taken by Franklin D. Roosevelt in putting 112,000 Japanese-Americans in conce_ntration camps in 1942. Both Inouye and Matsunaga are Japanese-Americans who served in the U.S. armed for­ ces during World War II while their relatives were detained in camps in the Southwest of the U.S. The interment of Japanese-~ericans were ordered by Roosevelt in an exercise of special wartime Presidential, powers. The 1950 law repealed by Congress last month was passed at the onset of the McCarthyite witch-hunting that marked American politics in the following decade. The repealed law was actually Title II of the Internal Security Act of 1950--the "Mc­ Carran Act." The Emergency Detention Act, or Title II, provided for the declaration of an "internal security emergency" by the President, acting unilaterally. In the terms of the law, having declared such an emergency, the president would be empowered to order the detention by the Justice Department of "anyone" about whom there was "reasonable ground to lwlieve ... probably will engage in, or probably will conspire with others to engage in, act~ of espionage or sabotage." The law provided for this detention without charges or due process of any kind or recourse for the victim through the right of habeus corpus. The move to repeal enjoyed the same kind of overwhelming support that the original measure enjoyed in Congress in 1950 -- including some of the very same individuals.
