On the loose..
By F. A. M.

Relations with Occidental
Tragedy of “Social Distance
s
;
;

‘ In the course of an illustrated
lecture, given at the Drill Hall
last Saturday evening , Corporal
F. S. Farrar, in command of the
RCMP post at Kaslo, referred to
an historical incident as follows:

among the individuals and groups
constituting it, culturally, economi­
cally, recreationally and otherwise.
Our friends who moved East
have had to meet the problem of
social adjustment, that of securing
good relationship with the people
among whom they were relocated.
(For the lack of a better word, I
shall call them “Occidentals” in this
paper.) That this is an important
factor in the achievement of re­
settlement is beyond any question.
The two phrases of adaptation,
the active and passive, to which I
referred elsewhere, are quite mark
ed in dealing with this problem?
To some of our relocees, especially
^e Issei, the question of assimi­
lating themselves to the Canadian
ways of life is yet to be achieved.
Bj.it to the majority of them, the
Nisei in particular, this phase of
the problem had largely been
solved. They had been educated in
Canadian schools, and had acquired
the Canadian customs, ideals, and
standards of living: they are
thoroughly Canadian in all respects
but one, and that is in their physi­
cal appearance, fori which they can
not be held responsible. The only
thing they. had to do, therefore,
was to get used to some local
peculiarities. In most eastern com­
munities,, our relocees found things
very conservative compared with
British Columbia, in labor condi­
tions for instance. “The business
ethics here are awful, “said a
friend doing business in Montreal.
Our relocees had to get used to
these local habits.

“In 1847, Sir John Franklin lost
both his ships, the Erebus and
Terror, crushed in the ice north­
west of King William Land. If
they had only become friendly with
the Eskimos instead of being afraid
of them, they might have survived
to tell the world of their great
voyage of adventure.”
This is a graphic example of the
tragedy of “social distance”, to
borrow a sociologist’s phrase. A
mutual understanding and helpful­
ness between the Eskimos, the in­
habitants of that place, and the
members of the exploration party,
the
new-comers,
might
have
saved many lives as well as their
precious discoveries and exper­
iences. But as it happened, there
were certain barriers between them
which prevented that; and the re­
sult "was the tragedy.
In
civilized
and
complex
society, the truth does not always
show itself so glaringly; but the
same laws are working nonethe­
less. It is only by a smooth and un­
obstructed operation of the laws of
interdependence and mutuality can
society maintain its peace and
order, and the individuals enjoy
their security and happiness. Much
of “the sickness of society” is due
to the presence of various barriers
which prevent normal intercourse

General Attitude Has Been
Far more important, and diffi­
cult, is the other side of the ques­
tion: that of winning the active
co-operation of the Occidental
neighbours. Before the war, there
was practically no discrimination
against the Japanese Canadians
anywhere in eastern Canada. But
after the war broke out, things
changed. The Occidental people in
eastern Canada, not knowing the
Japanese Canadians, for the major­
ity of them had never Been
them before, became easy prey to
war-time prejudices, and regarded
them all as “enemy aliens”. They
formed their ideas of these people
from newspaper stories and cartoons, sensational movies, and
groundless rumours. When five
Nisei attended a Church in Ontario,
soon after they arrived there, and
sat next to the minister’s wife, the
latter was repeatedly questioned
after the service, by well-meaning,
innocent ladies of the church:
“Mrs. R. weren’t you afraid.
Wouldn’t they stab you from the
back?” Some young people re­
ported to me of experiences where
doors had been slammed against
them when they went about in­
quiring for jobs or rooms. In­
stances were also noted to me of
cases where they failed to secure
good jobs because the employees
in these firms refused to work
with them. Then the attitude of the
councils of some cities was not
very friendly to . them.

Our relocees themselves have
done very creditably in overcoming
racial predudice. Some of them
have been very cautious not to
make themselves unduly conspicuous and arouse public sentiment
against themselves, such as by
going places in large gatherings.
In Montreal, I noticed our young
people were careful not to fill one
car by themselves, but to divide
themselves in several cars and
buses. Positively, they have been
cultivating friendships in schools
and colleges, in Churches and their
affiliated organizations; with their
neighbours and fellow-employees,
and have won many .understanding
friends. Though unfortunately, a
few contrary cases were reported
to me, many of our relocees have
proved their worth, and won a
good name for themselves, by
honest and faithful fulfilment of

On the whole however, the atti­
tude of the Occidentals - to our re­
locees has been exceedingly good.
In Alberta, in three meetings I
held, no one reported any un­
pleasant experiences. “So far our
relations with the Occidentals are
very, pleasant. We co-operate in
schools, war-bond drives, and other
community efforts,” they told me.
Our friends in Manitoba gave me
similar reports. In a cosmopolitan
city like Montreal, our relocees
feel no racial discrimination at all.
Moreover, everywhere there are
hosts of Occidental friends who
understand the Japanese Cana­
dians, and are doing all they can
not only to make the life of these
newcomers pleasant, but also to pro­
mote a better understanding of
them by other Occidentals. Among
these must be mentioned those who
are connected with the Y. M. and
Y. W. C. A., the returned mission­
aries from Japan, and all the liber­
al-minded, sane people found in
every place. A special mention
should be made of the part which
the Churches have played, and are
playing, in this connection. They
have all worked together to pro­
mote a better understanding of the
Japanese-Canadians by the people
in general, to persuade employers
to take in these people, to provide
for them social and recreational
facilities, as well as offering them
moral and spiritual guidance.

their work.
That there is no legal discrimi­
nation against them (except those
of war-time measures) is a fact
which is giving a great satis­
faction to all. Our friends have
already exercised their franchise
at several occasions. Because of
this fact, it is hoped that after
the war, there will be no occupa­
tional barriers against them such
as they were subjected to in
British Columbia.
In the attainment of good re­
lationship with our neighbours, a
detriment far greater than the pre­
judice of the Occidentals, is an
over-sensitiveness on our part,
which tends to collect resentments
for the wrongs done to us, both
real
and
imaginary.
Genuine
fellowship is impossible as long as
we harbour bitterness in our souls.

(Continued in'Column 4)

(About a month ago in this
column,. I stepped out gingerly on
a weak sort of a limb by expanding myself on the subject of
wolves, wolfesses and wolfing. I
ducked under the covers and waited for some violent reactions but
nothing happened .for a while—but
that seems to have been the calm
before the storm—because in this
week’s mail, appears a strong rebuttal to my remarks from an old
friend of ours from Manitoba—
Miss “PEG” who takes the floor
from this point on . ..)
By PEG”
A wolf, he says, is
sincere, his
clothes are conservatively stylish,
and he is a smooth talker. From
our side of the fence, F. A. M., that
species of male is an answer to a
maiden’s prayers. A wolf is some­
thing strictly different.

I am not sure how that term
came into being but my guess is
because they howl for attention
and when they get it they outrun
Gundar Haegg from captivity. It
may also be derived from the tale
of Little Red Riding Hood—you
know how he put on a meek show
and them jumped at her. Well, Red
Riding Hood got away but many of
her modern counterparts are not so
fortunate.
A- wolf is sincere, yeah, as sin­
cere as a wolf. Generally a wolf
is so termed because of the whole
pack of gullible females he strings
along. How can he be sincere to
all and still keep them stringing
or does he sincerely express his
views on the C. C. F. party or a
good book in the seclusion of a dim
sitting room ?

Now for the concrete—it is
usually easy to spot a wolf, thank
heavens. He may not have any­
thing else but he has charm (you
know the kind that emanates from
homely Boyer and Dennis Morgan)
and he has a line.

AN OTHER “NUT” IS FOUND.
Ao
please, because
it isn’t me. This “nut” belongs in
the same class as the peanut, and
the; walnut. Yet it isn’t a nut because t’s really a bean. (Oh nuts’)
What I’m trying to
tha
this is mother product of the wonderful oybean.

From the soybean, we get “Shoyu”, “omiso” and many other
things. And now, a way has been
found to turn them into delicious
nuts.
How ? It’s really quite simple.
Just soak the beans overnight.
Simmer them for an hour in fresh,
salted water then drain in a sieve.
Four out onto a kitchen towel and
pat dry. Spread the beans in a
shallow pan and roast in a moder­
ate oven (350 degrees) until they
are brown. Sprinkle them- with salt
while they are still hot.
Or, if an oven isn’t available,
try frying the beans. Soak the
beans overnight as for roasting'.
Drain nd DRY THOROUGHLY.
Fry a few at a time in deep,hot
fat. (A coarse sieve can be used as
a frying" basket.) Fry the small
soybeans for about five minutes
and the larger ones, for eight min­
utes. Drain on absorbent paper
towelling and salt them.

They’re just the thing to finish
off a wonderful meal that’s every­
thing from “soup to nuts.”

CHRISTMAS MAIL DATES.

Have you realized that Christ
mas is only twenty-one days
three weeks till
Christmas day Better hurry and
get your cards and parcels ready
for mailing or they won’t reach
their destination on time. Ameri­
can mail should be sent before
December 10, especially parcels,
to allow for Customs examination.

THREE KINDS OF LINES
There are three kinds of lines.
The first and most often-used is
the w’here...have...you...been...all...my...
life talk that starts two minutes
after introduction. That kind is
obvious and easy to deal with un­
less you are a naive pushover.
The second 's the friendly pal
routine.
You discuss
mutual
acquaintances, favourite sports and
if you don’t beware your heart he
will ensnare. The third line is the
hardest ^o recognize. He pretends
to look on life with frustrated
aloofness or loneliness. You feel it
your duty to straighten him out on
his outlook on the world, Watch
that he doesn’t twist yours.
Sounds formidable, doesn’t it?
It is. And this necessity develop­
ed the wolfesses. It takes a
wolf ess to see through a wolf
and incidentally most of these
femmes learned the ropes from
a male.

However, girls, all wolves are
not as tough as they seem. I have
seen some of the loudest howlers
become tamed to a German Sheph­
erd stage by some sweet clinging
vine, so that they scarcely whimper
at a neat pair of legs passing by.
(Wow, she sure lays it on, does­
n’t she ? ? Seems to me that “Peg”
must be quite a wolf ess herself
with all this learned knowledge on
what makes a wolf tick. After all,
personally I am just an innocent
onlooker who watches with keen
interest the effect of the winter
offensives of the wolves of my
acquaintance — the prairie lassie
states definitely that wolves make
wolfesses.
x And the way everything is
blamed on the males—now, aint
that just like a woman?
Finally since I have yet to even
achieve an amateur standing on
the wolf class, methinks I’ll prac­
tise up on number one—the “where
...have...you...been...all...my...life_.” line.
Eventually I might get to the
“frustrated aloofness and loneli­
ness” stage, by the way know' any
naive pushovers I can practise
on?? .... well. Bonne Wolfing!!! "

“Eastern Impressions,,
(Continued from Column 1)
While I can w*ell understand and
even sympathize with those people
who feel bitter against the Occi­
dentals, knowing full well what
bitter experiences they have had
to go through; yet I do not think
it wise to persist in it. For no one
gains anything by it, and all lose
so much, and the heaviest casualities will be ourselves. There is
more common-sense in these words
of Booker T. Washington than
appears to us at first: “I resolved
that I would permit no man to
narrow arid degrade my soul by
making me hate him.” To live in
the spirit of the Master-who pray­
ed for those who nailed him to the
Cross, is to make everybody our
friend, and at the same time, to
make our lives victorious.

MISTLETOE AND ALL
Let’s get in the holiday mood
this year and really go to town
with our Christmas decorations.
Nothing elaborate and expensive.
Just something made by ourselves
with a bit of ingenuity.
Cut long strips of green and red
crepe paper one and a half inches
wide. Stretch the edges a bit, then,
with a running stitch, thread some
string through the centre of the
long strip. Gather the paper up
fairly closely and give it a few
twists to make a spiral effect.
Presto! you have a gay stream­
er for your Christmas tree or to
hang across your windows'.
Cover the table where your tree
stands, with white crepe paper. No
use spoiling a good tablecloth.
Using the whole length and all or
half the width of a- fold of green
or red crepe paper, cut a fringe to
pin around the table whatever way
you like.
Cedar branches and wreathes
topped by a big red, paper bow
and some silver bells will brighten
any dull spot. ;

she would be left behind to marry
her sweetheart who remained in

train. With one last, lingering
glance toward the barrack city,
she climbed into one of the Pull­
mans.
