Hello, Friends! The first meeting under your new executive show,
for an interesting year. We hope you like this type of meeting
"J found it enjoyable, interesting and thoughtful.
for your interest the executive would like to introduce to you this
n Hicity department. As in many new undertakings, i t is not without
Tfaults; y°ur invited criticisms will assure us of its need and help it
fulfil a useful life.
Its primary purpose is to familiarize the Nisei in
general and the membership of the J.C.C.L. in parPUSLICITY DEPT.
ticular, just what this organization is and what it
is doing. This will include all organizational work,
q its problems and all its necessary criticisms. So members, if you are
willing to help the J.C.C.L. get ahead, send in your ideas on what you
w;sh this oroanization would do or should do. Criticisms, whether they
be constructive or destructive, will be equally studied and their merits
equally appraised, so get up on your feet and demand attention — the
executive welcomes you.
To start things moving let's put the J.C.C.L. on the '''carpet", and
tee if it is an organization worth your time and worth your support.
First, why such an organization in the first place? well let's take a look
at what the Constitution says— . . .
"We, the Canadian citizens of Japanese origin, desiring by organFed effort, to ameliorate ourselves and our posterity to the highest stand
ard of citizenship and to foster good understanding between the Japanese
and Canadians do hereby associate ourselves in the Japanese Canadian
Citizens' League and pledge ourselves to be governed by the constitution".
That's what the Preamble says and to reduce it to language we can
readily understand, it means to say that we Nisei are organized because
we want to raise ourselves and those who follow us to a
OUR AIMS high level of citizenship.
Now can you find anything
disagreeable in that? If we examine the "objects" of the
J.C.C.L. Constitution, you will readily see . . .
1. To foster good citizenship among the Canadians of Japanese
origin.
2. To protect and further the general welfare of Canadians of
Japanese origin.
3. To promote good-will between Canada and Japan.
Are not those aims the selfsame aims that, you, the sincere Nisei,
have and would wish to promote? That is why the J.C.C.L. is an actuality,
it is the consolidation of your common aspirations in concrete form that
has resulted in the organization of this body; a body whose voice is
yours, whose vision you compose, and whose destiny yosj determine. Is
it worth your support?
Let's turn to the makeup of the club and see just what is what. It
is not strictly a social club, but social activity plays a very useful part. It
is not strictly an "economic group", but subjects and problems of our
workaday world find an important place in the studies and discussions.
It is not a political group, but things of political bearFOR ALL NISEI
ing are earnestly dealt with. It is therefore not "sec
tarian" for anyone may join, be they conservative or
radical, be they Christian or Buddhist, be they fisherman or farmer. Its
foundations were made broad to include all, to be truly representative
of the Nisei, for that is the only type of organization we want.
Its
foundations were made democratic to guide us in our struggle for a truly
democratic life, a life whose principle is—"To each, an equal op
portunity".
With this, the executive invites you to join us with equal oppor
tunity to express your views, with equal opportunity to participate in its
activities, and with equal opportunity to guide and direct this, your
organization.
