Between 1931 and 1940, 114,000 Germans moved to the United States, many of whom—including Nobel prize winner Albert Einstein—were Jewish Germans or anti-Nazis fleeing government oppression.[51] About 25,000 people became paying members of the pro-Nazi German American Bund during the years before the war.[52] German aliens were the subject of suspicion and discrimination during the war, although prejudice and sheer numbers meant they suffered as a group generally less than Japanese Americans. The Alien Registration Act of 1940 required 300,000 German-born resident aliens to register with the Federal government and restricted their travel and property ownership rights.[53][54] Under the still active Alien Enemy Act of 1798, the United States government interned nearly 11,000 German immigrants between 1940 and 1948.[55] Most were not American citizens. Some of these were United States citizens; some were the parents of active military men.[56] Civil rights violations occurred.[57] Five hundred were arrested without warrant. Others were held without charge for months or interrogated without benefit of legal counsel. Convictions were not eligible for appeal.[57] An unknown number of "voluntary internees" joined their spouses and parents in the camps and were not permitted to leave.[58][59][60]
President Franklin D. Roosevelt did not hesitate to name Americans of German ancestry to top war jobs, including General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, and General Carl Andrew Spaatz. He appointed Republican Wendell Willkie as a personal representative. German Americans who had fluent German language skills were an important asset to wartime intelligence, and they served as translators and as spies for the United States.[61]
The war evoked strong pro-American patriotic sentiments among German Americans, few of whom by then had contacts with distant relatives in the old country.[16][62]

A edição de A Tribuna, do dia 10 de julho de 1943, registra a aflição dessa retirada: "Colhidos de surpresa, numerosos japoneses trataram de se desfazer de seus bens. No Marapé, na Ponta da Praia e em Santa Maria, houve verdadeira corrida para a venda de suínos, galináceos, muares etc.
"Quase todos proprietários de chácaras, eles puseram à venda quase tudo quanto possuíam. Vendiam a qualquer preço, pois não havia tempo para regatear. Um deles, para desfazer-se de sua chácara, em Santa Maria, vendeu três porcos, uma carroça e um muar pela quantia de mil cruzeiros. As galinhas eram vendidas a dois ou três cruzeiros".
