Military Rule In Hawaii Held To Be Invalid
Judge Delbert E. Metzger ruled martial law in Hawaii is invalid despite assertions by Admiral Nimitz and Lt. Gen. Richardson that it is essential for war prosecution. The decision voids civilian authority under martial law and frees Lloyd C. Duncan from imprisonment, with an appeal planned by the War Department. Richardson said invasion remains unlikely. Nimitz supported the policy. The ruling affects how violations in military zones are handled while military curfews stay in effect.

He traced its progress from 1889 to 1933, noted the good neighbor policy, naval bases, and regional trade links that benefit U S war efforts and postwar markets, and urged maintaining the close hemisphere ties against future risks. He emphasized shared markets, raw materials, and the need for protective relations to safeguard the hemisphere.
