Our Marriage Problem
NO topic, it would seem, is of greater current interest
among the first and second generation than the Nisei mar
riage problem. It crops up in casual conversation and informal
discussion with almost irritating frequency, and recently
has inspired a number of very well-intended study com
mittees and meetings.
_ It is all too easy of course to dismiss the subject with
an airy wave of the hand, and proclaim it as purely mental. It
is equally as easy to become so involved either-in adolescent
acetiousness or matronly sentimentality that sight is lost
entirely of the very real aspects of the question.
For it cannot be gainsaid that it is a very real problem.
From time immemorial the way of a man and a maid has in
spired a greater volume of prose and poetry, of sound philo
sophy and pure hokum than any other subject
Every
provocative angle in that whole complex relationship is aiven
a unique twist in the case of the second generation of an imn^ia?t(OrIcnta .SW- by reason of a conflict in culture,

Our Marriage Problem
NO topic, it would seem, is of greater current interest
among the first and second generation than the Nisei mar
riage problem. It crops up in casual conversation and informal
discussion with almost irritating frequency, and recently
has inspired a number of very well-intended study com
mittees and meetings.
_ It is all too easy of course to dismiss the subject with
an airy wave of the hand, and proclaim it as purely mental. It
is equally as easy to become so involved either-in adolescent
acetiousness or matronly sentimentality that sight is lost
entirely of the very real aspects of the question.
For it cannot be gainsaid that it is a very real problem.
From time immemorial the way of a man and a maid has in
spired a greater volume of prose and poetry, of sound philo
sophy and pure hokum than any other subject
Every
provocative angle in that whole complex relationship is aiven
a unique twist in the case of the second generation of an imn^ia?t(OrIcnta .SW- by reason of a conflict in culture,
n imbalance of biology, and a restricted economic status.
. Admittedly no solution will be found by a mere dis
cussion of the question. But serious, level-headed inquiry
