Description
Meeting minutes of the Monterey Peninsula Japanese American Citizens League. Topics discussed include membership cards for keeping track of chapter members, and holding more social activities to generate interest in the JACL. President Higashi summarizes some of the goals of the chapter, which include gaining recognition from national headquarters, the first generation of Japanese immigrants in the community, and local young people. To achieve these aims, Higashi proposes reorganizing the chapter, increasing membership, and planning more activities. Anti-immigrant bills before the legislature are also discussed.
