A POLICE STATE? Excerpts from the April 1, 1942,
New York Times:
"Patrolmen
and detectives have received lists of aliens [permanent residents]
who have registered with the government. On orders from Commissioner
Valentine commanders of detective divisions will get complete histories
of these aliens to go into precinct dossiers.
Will
Visit Alien Homes
Detective
and other city operatives will visit every person who registered...they
will check home and business address, daily activity and routines.
Dossiers
will be made of aliens of enemy nations, natives of Germany, Italy,
Japan, and their lesser allies.
The records will check also on
the number of persons in each family and on the whereabouts of each
member of the family..." Editors note: This practice was planned
throughout the country for the 1,100,000 permanent resident aliens, Germans,
Italians, and Japanese, residing in the United States. It began with the
256,000 permanent resident aliens in New York City. For more of the cited
