J SAW “Citizen Kane.” Have you ever gazed through a kaleidoscope, at
its varied, multi-colored pieces, and marvelled that various twists of the

given by “Citizen Kane,” Orson Welles’ self-written, self-produced, self
starred picture.

us who are trying to find the
answer to the problem of inter

It's Here Again
THERE will be general satisfaction locally over the recent
announcement of the Vancouver Chapter of the Japanese
Canadian Citizens’ League that steps taken last year, in assur
ing the peace and safety of the Japanese quarter on Hallowe’en,
will again be followed.
Last year, it will be recalled, a request to the Police Com
mission fdr adequate precautionary measures, plus the result
ing publicity that followed, was sufficient to guard against the
hooliganism and malicious damage of property that is at times
accepted as reasonable conduct once a year.
The public mind -is short. So short in fact, that the odds
are that many of us have forgotten alreday the situation that
developed two years ago resulting in the following news

THE NEXT TIME . .
I met my isolated friend. I had to report to him that Nisei maidbl
were very conservative and that he would have to control his amorous!
instincts, but that the young crop of Nisei seemed to be going in for petting!
in the accepted fashion of the Caucasians.
|
I recalled a conversation with a feminine friend one afternoon. Herl
circumstances were typical of a Nisei girl well-on in her ’teens in that sbe|
liked to attend social functions, wh ile her folks frowned on them.
|
She admitted quite frankly that she liked to be taken places by a well-1
mannered boy. She. loved to dance and enjoy’’ the companionship of boys.I
But she made it plain that she was: not interested in marriage.
|
When I pressed her for the reasons, she told me that she thought all I
marriages turned out unhappily- Life, anyway, she said, was not meant|
to be totally happy. She did .not believe that she would want to marry al
boy who was madly in love witla her, but who would not be able to!
afford her security and a decent standard of living. Instead craved security,!
a sense of meaning in life, perhaps an all-absorbing career.
I
I was puzzled and prodded her whether she did not feel an inner urge!
to want to be loved, to marry.
|
“That’s what all boys seem to think about,” she said. “Personally!
I don’t think girls care for that sort of thing.”
“Do you mean to say that you believe that it’s indecent and improper
for girls to have the same sort of irrgcs as the boys?”
She admitted that her ideas on sex may have been distorted by thtj
ideas of her parents, even though she prided herself on being more liberal;
than the rest of her feminine friends in their thinking. She thought that
if she did marry she would tolerate it for her husband’s sake.
She insisted that she could experience love without all this fanfare
that was being made of sex. It might be all right for a boy’ to kiss her
goodnight, but even that she feared was unhygienic.
Externally, however, she was a popular and cute girl. She enjoyed
being paid attention by the male. Inked to be with them, and even dreamed
of a Grand Passion.
After my conversation with her, I mused on the difference of attitude
of conservative girls with that of the boys. It reminded me of my sisters
best friend who was married to an unromantic man. Getting ideas from
a newly-married couple next door, she asked her husband to kiss her when
he went out to work. She was repulsed by the curt remark that it was
“mendokusai.”
She confided to my sister that she felt like a beast because her hus
band made advances in an unrorna-ntic manner.
