He would be ashamed to face an American on the street and be ashamed for his son in the service. Talks about what a “Jap” said to him after Pearl Harbor: “American is the best educated Nation in the world but yet they are the dummist [sic].” Says he would never vandalize but thinks it is bad that LP employs a “Jap” and wants him to “please kick out the ‘Jap'” [Filed under LP Biographical: Materials re: “Japanese Gardener Incident”, 1945: Box #2.001, Folder 1.1]
