Indicative of the sane and responsible attitude which a
growing proportion of Canadians are taking towards the
so-called “Japanese problem in B. C.’’ is the editorial stan
of the“Vancouver Province in its comment upon the resolu
tion recently adopted by Vanouver s City Council.
On minor points we should like to take issue with the
Province, particularly in its description of the second genera
tion as “unassimilable,” and in its suggestion that smug
gling of alien Japanese into Canada still exists.. But with
the greater part of the Province’s thesis we are in complete
agreement.
_
,
And most of all it is reassuring and heartening tor us
to hear from an organ as responsible and influential as the
Province remarks such as these.
“Can we expect to get any answer that will be final
by treating these people harshly or unjustly, by badger
ing them or driving them from one occupation to an
other? After all. they are here and we cannot send them
away. Most of them were born here and belong no
where else. If we are sensible and just we shall recognize
that fact and do what we can to create a condition which
will be comfortable and just both to them and to us.
We shall not annoy or persecute our Japanese fellow
citizens or make political footballs of them and their
necessities.
On the contrary, we shall approach the problem
with what intelligence and ingenuity we possess and
endeavour to find a formula that will be satisfactory all

Indicative of the sane and responsible attitude which a
growing proportion of Canadians are taking towards the
so-called “Japanese problem in B. C.’’ is the editorial stan
of the“Vancouver Province in its comment upon the resolu
tion recently adopted by Vanouver s City Council.
On minor points we should like to take issue with the
Province, particularly in its description of the second genera
tion as “unassimilable,” and in its suggestion that smug
gling of alien Japanese into Canada still exists.. But with
the greater part of the Province’s thesis we are in complete
agreement.
_
,
And most of all it is reassuring and heartening tor us
to hear from an organ as responsible and influential as the
Province remarks such as these.
“Can we expect to get any answer that will be final
by treating these people harshly or unjustly, by badger
ing them or driving them from one occupation to an
other? After all. they are here and we cannot send them
away. Most of them were born here and belong no
where else. If we are sensible and just we shall recognize
that fact and do what we can to create a condition which
will be comfortable and just both to them and to us.
We shall not annoy or persecute our Japanese fellow
citizens or make political footballs of them and their
necessities.
On the contrary, we shall approach the problem
with what intelligence and ingenuity we possess and
endeavour to find a formula that will be satisfactory all
