“Japanese Question” at that.
In his letter Mr. Mitchell said: I am unaware of any
pledge by the Dominion Government to remove the Japa

inion Government was that British justice would be exer
cised towards these people, the majority of whom are
Canadian citizens.”
The Trade Board decided that a second letter be sent
to the minister, pointing out that their resolution was not
seeking the removal of Japanese from British Columbia
after the war, but rather their transference from Koote
nay housing settlements. The resolution previously had
been the cause of extended discussion by the board.
About one-third of the Pacific Coast’s pre-war Japa
nese population of 22,000 has been relocated on the prairie
and in eastern Canada. Some 12,000 are resident in gov
ernment housing projects and 4,000 in scattered employ
ment throughout the interior. Attitude of certain Pacific
Coast sources expressing satisfaction over the removal
of evacuees from “British Columbia” has aroused a definite
feeling in interior points of the province, which resent Hie
false assumption that B. C. ends at the boundary of the

“JAPS RUNNING TWIN FALLS”
From Highway 30 in Idaho just
south of the border from the Koot
enay area, can be seen the rows of
long dark buildings that make up
the Wai’ Relocation Authority re
location center of Minidoka at
Hunt. There nearly 10,000 evacuees
from the coastal fringe of the
Pacific Northwest exist ir the usual
layout of barracks, messhalls and
administration buildings common
to all WRA settlements.
The city of Twin Falls is the
nearest large city 30 miles away,
corresponding to the relocation
center in population. In a letter to
the editor of the San Francisco
Examiner, a publication very simi
lar co the Vancouver Sun in its
views of the Japanese problem,
an irate citizen ranted to the ef
fect that there was:
Japanese internee
.a
camp, just outside of Twin Falls,
Idaho .. . the town of Twin Falls
is now7 controlled by Japs . . . they
roam the streets ... in large num
bers without restrictions, go where
they please and push Americans off
the streets.”
This, the discerning reader will
immediately think, smells rather
familiar. And well he might, for
it is an example of the usual re
actionary and mischievous talk,
intentional or otherwise, that fans
flames of race prejudice wider
among people already excited by a
form of w7ar hysteria.
“JAPS RUNNING
SLOCAN STORES”
A parallel case was the Slocan
Green Light incident last month
which quite possibly resulted in
stirring the burning embers of
resentment in the hearts of ,a pro
portion of the local residents in the
Kootenay area.
Sometime late last year a dis
gruntled Greyhound customer who
evidently had got out of the wrong
side of bed entered the Green Light
coffee shop at Slocan City ous stop
on the Nakusp-Nelson route. On
seeing the Nisei workers at the
establishment he evidently became
irritated and when by some reason
the service was not as efficient as
demanded, bounced out irate and
wrote a complaining letter to a
Kootenay city daily asking what
the heck the country was coming
to with “Japs running' the Slocan
coffee shops and ladling out a poor
quality of coffee and giving rotten
service or words to that effect.
It mattered not in both cases
that the facts were totally incor
rect, that the Japanese were em
ployed by local residents who open
ed and operated the shop for a
number of years and that these
Japanese were Canadian citizens
by birth; similarly that the. Twin
Falls Japanese were those in the
evacuee, camp, the majority .of
whom were American citizens with
full constitutional rights and that
nothing had ever happened at the
Idaho city as reported in the Ex
aminer letter; there was .no use
in trying to right the situation
because as usual the harm was
already done.

FEAR AND IGNORANCE
SEED OF “ANTI” FEELING
These prejudices arid plaints
arise from many quarters of this
province and the Pacific states
because of several factors. The big
gest and most powerful reason is
the nurtured fear of. economic com
petition and the desire to eliminate
this competition by taking advan
tage of an abnormal situation
caused bv the war. But those who
follow the lines of thought advocated by the “anti” groups are not
so much concerned with the eco
nomic” viewpoint, they, because o
profound ignorance of what Cana
dian Japanese are like or anything
else pertaining to the problem,
have the impression it is patriotic
to think the “anti”, way or <_o beHere the Japanese in Canada are
as bad as they are‘ painted.

THE WAY TO A MAN’S HEART
By LARRY TAJIRI
(Editor, The Pacific Citizen, Salt Lake City, Utah)
There is a common identity of
interest between Japanese Ameri
cans and Canadians of Japanese
ancestry. This identification has
events
been implemented by
which followed Pearl Harbour. The
wholesale evacuation of persons of
Japanese ancestry from the west
ccast of the United States was
followed shortly afterwards by a
similar forced migration of all of
Japanese
parentage
from
the
coastal area of British Columbia.
The Japanese Americans, 110,000
of them, went into the barrack
cities of government-enforced re
location, “cities” fenced with barb
ed-wire and guarded by military
sentries. Japanese Canadians found
new homes in the ghost towns of
the Canadian Rockies. Both groups
were isolated by government edict
from the general population, al
though all Canadians and all
Americans of Japanese ancestry
were neither evacuated nor relocated. Those living outside the
coastal areas were spared the in
dignities of racial evacuation.
RECOGNITION OF LOYALTY
Today there is recognition in
Washington and Ottawa that the
great majority of the evacuated
persons, citizens and aliens, are
loyal to their respective democracies. The i resent policy of in
dividual resettlement in normal
civilian communities, of Canadians
to the eastern provinces of the
Dominion, and Americans in that
vast area between the Sierras and
the Atlantic, is an expression of
that recognition of loyalty.
We Japanese Americans “south
of the border” have watched with
interest and concern the problems
faced by our fellow7 Canadians.
There is a double bond between us,
the ties of a common racial ances
try and of a common belief that
democracy however marginal its
application to a less-favored min
ority, is still more desirable than
any other form oi' system of gov
ernment.
If the wartime treatment of
Japanese Americans and Japanese
Canadians has been shabby, it is
not the fault of democracy. Rather,
it is because democracy has not

“JAPS RUNNING TWIN FALLS”
From Highway 30 in Idaho just
south of the border from the Koot
enay area, can be seen the rows of
long dark buildings that make up
the Wai’ Relocation Authority re
location center of Minidoka at
Hunt. There nearly 10,000 evacuees
from the coastal fringe of the
Pacific Northwest exist ir the usual
layout of barracks, messhalls and
administration buildings common
to all WRA settlements.
The city of Twin Falls is the
nearest large city 30 miles away,
corresponding to the relocation
center in population. In a letter to
the editor of the San Francisco
Examiner, a publication very simi
lar co the Vancouver Sun in its
views of the Japanese problem,
an irate citizen ranted to the ef
fect that there was:
Japanese internee
.a
camp, just outside of Twin Falls,
Idaho .. . the town of Twin Falls
is now7 controlled by Japs . . . they
roam the streets ... in large num
bers without restrictions, go where
they please and push Americans off
the streets.”
This, the discerning reader will
immediately think, smells rather
familiar. And well he might, for
it is an example of the usual re
actionary and mischievous talk,
intentional or otherwise, that fans
flames of race prejudice wider
among people already excited by a
form of w7ar hysteria.
“JAPS RUNNING
SLOCAN STORES”
A parallel case was the Slocan
Green Light incident last month
which quite possibly resulted in
stirring the burning embers of
resentment in the hearts of ,a pro
portion of the local residents in the
Kootenay area.
Sometime late last year a dis
gruntled Greyhound customer who
evidently had got out of the wrong
side of bed entered the Green Light
coffee shop at Slocan City ous stop
on the Nakusp-Nelson route. On
seeing the Nisei workers at the
establishment he evidently became
irritated and when by some reason
the service was not as efficient as
demanded, bounced out irate and
wrote a complaining letter to a
Kootenay city daily asking what
the heck the country was coming
to with “Japs running' the Slocan
coffee shops and ladling out a poor
quality of coffee and giving rotten
service or words to that effect.
It mattered not in both cases
that the facts were totally incor
rect, that the Japanese were em
ployed by local residents who open
ed and operated the shop for a
number of years and that these
Japanese were Canadian citizens
by birth; similarly that the. Twin
Falls Japanese were those in the
evacuee, camp, the majority .of
whom were American citizens with
full constitutional rights and that
nothing had ever happened at the
Idaho city as reported in the Ex
aminer letter; there was .no use
in trying to right the situation
because as usual the harm was
already done.

FEAR AND IGNORANCE
SEED OF “ANTI” FEELING
These prejudices arid plaints
arise from many quarters of this
province and the Pacific states
because of several factors. The big

the nurtured fear of. economic com

THE WAY TO A MAN’S HEART
By LARRY TAJIRI
(Editor, The Pacific Citizen, Salt Lake City, Utah)
There is a common identity of
interest between Japanese Ameri
cans and Canadians of Japanese
ancestry. This identification has
events
been implemented by
which followed Pearl Harbour. The
wholesale evacuation of persons of
Japanese ancestry from the west
ccast of the United States was
followed shortly afterwards by a
similar forced migration of all of
Japanese
parentage
from
the
coastal area of British Columbia.
The Japanese Americans, 110,000
of them, went into the barrack
cities of government-enforced re
location, “cities” fenced with barb
ed-wire and guarded by military
sentries. Japanese Canadians found
new homes in the ghost towns of
the Canadian Rockies. Both groups
were isolated by government edict
from the general population, al
though all Canadians and all
Americans of Japanese ancestry
were neither evacuated nor relocated. Those living outside the
coastal areas were spared the in
dignities of racial evacuation.
RECOGNITION OF LOYALTY
Today there is recognition in
Washington and Ottawa that the
great majority of the evacuated
persons, citizens and aliens, are
loyal to their respective democracies. The i resent policy of in
dividual resettlement in normal
civilian communities, of Canadians
to the eastern provinces of the
Dominion, and Americans in that
vast area between the Sierras and
the Atlantic, is an expression of
that recognition of loyalty.
We Japanese Americans “south
of the border” have watched with
interest and concern the problems
faced by our fellow7 Canadians.
There is a double bond between us,
the ties of a common racial ances
try and of a common belief that
democracy however marginal its
application to a less-favored min
ority, is still more desirable than
any other form oi' system of gov
ernment.
