Deport 100000 Japs From Hawaii Warns Maui Director
John Balch, longtime Maui Telephone Co director, urged immediate removal of 100,000 Japanese from Hawaii to protect wartime security. He proposed relocating them to mainland centers, with deportation after the war to balance the island’s growing Japanese majority and prevent Hawaii from becoming a Japanese colony. He also called for moving 100,000 island Japs to the mainland and bringing in Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, and Filipino workers to Hawaii.
