How Shall We Face A War
oOME plain and blunt talking from London, Washington and
^ Tokyo has hung out the danger signals that a “showdown
on the Pacific” is very close—closer perhaps than has ever
before been true in history.
Japan has despatched a special envoy to Washington in
what is described as a last attempt to effect an adjustment of
relationships between the two Pacific powers. And though
millions on both sides of the Pacific earnestly hope and pray
for a reconciliation of differences that will shut the spectre of
open war from our shores, the gulf to be bridged is a vast and
difficult one. Indeed, in many quarters, there is said to be but
little prospect that Ambassador Kurusu’s vital mission will be
successful.
.
It would thus seem that we are facing today a crisis that
overshadows all those that have gone before. And though we
5
are apt to shrug our shoulders, to display a lack of concern, to
consider this “just another newspaper crisis, there can be no
gainsaying that peace hangs on the balance more delicately,
more precariously than ever before. If this last attempt to
define a basis of settlement fails, there can be, it would seem,
no turning back from the divergent paths that Japan on the
one hand, the United States and Great Britain, on the other,
have been following for the past decade.
Admittedly there is little that we can do,—little that we,
Japanese by race, Canadian and British by birth and educa
tion, can do to avert this tragedy that comes so close to us now.
But if we can do nothing to prevent it, at least we can be
realistic enough to face it squarely. And facing it squarely,
we can assuredly prepare ourselves to bear the sorrow and the
i bitterness than inevitably will come our way. We need now
to place our assurance in the inherent tolerance, good sense and
decency of our Canadian neighbours and the democratic way
; of life. And we need now to ask ourselves how best may each
one of us, as an individual, bear ourselves with courage, with
honour and with dignity, no matter what order of confict
looms before us on the Pacific.
A Bridge For Understanding
of the most frequently urged, and certainly one of the
ONE
most valuable means by which difficulties arising from
.
racial prejudice and misunderstanding may be solved is closer
contact between second generation Japanese and their Can
adian neighbours.
Closer contact that leads to knowledge,
knowledge that inspires friendship and confidence, are rightly
seen as invaluable channels through which the flow of Nisei
life may mingle and become merged with the larger stream of
Canadian society all about us.
The Young People’s Christian Conference recently con
cluded in Vancouver* laid due stress upon this point, urging
that the Nisei make a conscious effort to maintain old contacts
and to cultivate new ones. That view was echoed in emphatic
terms by a . Canadian youth leader, representing a large body
of young Occidental Canadians, who are well known for their
sympathetic viewpoint and tolerant attitude to minority
groups.
No group in our own community is more favorably placed
to take the lead in such work.than our Christian youth. Their
spiritual beliefs provide a common and inspiring ground for
communion and goodwill that overrides the factor of race;
their institutional organization makes possible close and active
association with other Canadians. The rest of the community
may well look to them for singular zeal and initiative, for
leadership by precept and example, in this great work of
bridging the gap between our own lives and those of our Can
adian friends.
