Roots Of Permanence
A HIGHER volume of retail sales in

the community this year is at
tributed in part by merchants to the
feat that under the Foreign Exchange
Control Act. the export of funds to
foreign countries has been severely
restricted. As a result money is be
ing spent in local stores to a wider
extent than it has in the past.
Though possibly the actual amount
involved is not large, it is a more than
ordinarily significant development. It
is in fact a surface indication of the
whole process of change that has been
going on in the Japanese community
ever since it was first established. It
is a surface indication of the manner
in which the community, for better
or for worse as the case may be, is
pushing its roots ever deeper into
the Canadian soil.
There may be among us still a few
individuals who believe that they can
escape all the minor irritations and
discomforts of life in Canada by re
turning. or by going to Japan; who
think that there they will find the
solution to all their difficulties; who
cling to the illusion that they can find
in Japan the promised haven of rest
and comfort.
But the rest of us know, now. con
clusively. irrevocably, finally, and we
can thank the war for bringing us to
that realization, that the roots of the
tree have pushed themselves too firm
ly and to deeply into this soil ever
to be torn up and transplanted again
in a far-away land.
That, indeed, is the process of
growth that has been going on for
four decades; and our Christmas cele
brations and Christmas buying are
but the products of that growth.

tributed in part by merchants to the
feat that under the Foreign Exchange
Control Act. the export of funds to
foreign countries has been severely
restricted. As a result money is be
ing spent in local stores to a wider
extent than it has in the past.
Though possibly the actual amount
involved is not large, it is a more than
ordinarily significant development. It
is in fact a surface indication of the
whole process of change that has been
going on in the Japanese community
ever since it was first established. It
is a surface indication of the manner
in which the community, for better
or for worse as the case may be, is
pushing its roots ever deeper into
the Canadian soil.
There may be among us still a few
individuals who believe that they can
escape all the minor irritations and
discomforts of life in Canada by re
turning. or by going to Japan; who
think that there they will find the
solution to all their difficulties; who
cling to the illusion that they can find
in Japan the promised haven of rest
and comfort.
But the rest of us know, now. con
clusively. irrevocably, finally, and we
can thank the war for bringing us to
that realization, that the roots of the
tree have pushed themselves too firm
ly and to deeply into this soil ever
to be torn up and transplanted again
in a far-away land.
That, indeed, is the process of
growth that has been going on for
four decades; and our Christmas cele
brations and Christmas buying are
but the products of that growth.
