January
It was about twenty-five years
ago that the so-called Nisei Ques
tion began to draw public atten
tion,
although
the
educational
phase of it received‘consideration
very much earlier. “The Problem
of the Second Generation” was
widely discussed in public gather
ings, newspapers and Church or
ganizations; in fact, it became a
kind of platform-fad. The IsseiNisei relationship, the relations
with the Occidentals, the legal dis
abilities relative to certain political
and occupational rights, the boy
girl relationships and marriage
problems, were some of the major
topics we used to study together;
first among the Issei, then among
the Occidentals, and lately - among
the Nisei themselves. In 1929, I
was privileged to present the prob
lem at the S. C. M. Conference for
Western Canada held at Jasper
Park; and in 1931, at the World
Student Christian Conference
which met at Bowen Island. Soon
afterwards, both the Canadian
Trades and Labor Congress and
the United Church B. C. Conference
passed • a resolution urging the
Government to grant the full citizenship to the Nisei.
All that is a past history. Not
that all
problems have been
solved, but they ceased to be mere
parental worries or theoretical dis_
cussions. The Nisei
to-day ou
in the world to tackle the problems
themselves, in a way far beyond
the wildest dreams of our social
prophets. As has been observed by
the Editor of this paper in his edi
torial for the Christmas number,
“the day of the Nisei has definitely
become a living reality.”
One of the students who attended
the Jasper Park Conference, refer
red to in the preceding paragraph,
who took much interest in the
Nisei question and has since been
corresponding with me (always
with his wife, who was also at the
Conference as a girl), wrote to me
early last year, in which he said
in part:
“We well remember with what
pride you spoke of your young
people. We have recently come
stons
"bimizii
NISEI AND RESETTLEMENT
aci’oss some of them, and we think
your pride has been justified.”
In
pre-evacuation
davs
the
Nisei were often criticized by ome
members of the older generation
on many scores, among which was
the charge that they were irres
ponsible and care-free pleasure
seekers, lacking in the pioneering
spirit and moral stamina. Against
such criticisms, some of us used to
reply that, whatever characteristics
the Nisei might have acquired, for
them the Issei were largely res
ponsible; that, while there might
have been some Nisei to whom
these criticisms, could justly be
applied, it was not just to judge
the whole group by worst exam
ples; and that, if these young
people looked irresponsible and
soft, it was because they had never
been given opportunities to bear
heavy responsibiltics, that neces
sity had not as yet driven them to
test their real capacity.
The calamity of 1942 came as a
severe test for the Nisei, as for all
of us. To tell the truth, some of us
felt slightly miserable and disap
pointed by some of the thing's
done and left undone by the major
ity of the Nisei in those critical
days, although we were much en
couraged by some of them who re
mained true to themselves and
their principles in spite of many
disturbing factors then prevailing.
But when I took the trip East last
year, and saw with my own eyes
a large number- of Nisei scattered
all over Canada, cheerfully striv
ing in the face of many difficulties,
to pave their way for a brighterfuture, my faith in, and admiration
for, the Nisei was fully restored.
I came back from my trip, recall
ing those words of my friend:
‘‘Your pride in them has been
justified.”
To begin with, he experiences
of the past two years proved that
in most cases, it
oniv
strong affection, characteristic of
the Japanese parents for their
children, which refused to let them
go of their own. t hat kept the
Nisei from venturing' to pioneer in
the new world. Where parent;
were more reasonable and followed
their venerated maxim. "If vou
love your child truly, let him ex
perience hardships away from
home ■, the Nisei proved themselves
courageous and daring, went for
th cheerfully “not knowing whither
they went”. Who can forget those
days when our young men, most
of them out of their homes for the
first time in their life-time, left
for Schreiber night after night?
It is hard even for soldiers to leave
their dear ones behind, even though
honor went with them; but for
these Nisei boys to leave with a
sort of stigma for no other reason
but that they happened to be born
of a certain race, was much hard—
Girls were no less daring. I
think of a girl who used to help
me in my office, still in the teens,
who cheerfully went to an Ontario
City where Nisei were unknown;
and of those gills, mostly about fifteen years old, with whom we bade
farewell at the station as they
left for London to work.
_ J11 -Alberta and Manitoba, the
Nisei work side by side with the
Issei; but in Ontario and Quebec,
the conditions are entirely differ
ent. There I found definitely a
Nisei world. The Nisei are ’left
entirely on their own, very few
Issei having gone there as yet.
There they have to sink or swim.
Our relocees proved themselves
good pioneers. The Nisei can be
tough against hardships and ser
ious about life. I have noted
through these columns, how much
progress they have made in the
achievement of their better future.
I must add here the fact that our
Nisei, in their process of resettle—
ment, have nor lost
good racial Traits,
feared by some lss<
iv ot tne
has been
They are
as industwous and law-abiding, emerprising in face of difficukie , and considerate towards their parents, as
their progenitors have been. As to
rhe last point, young people often
write to me to this effect: “Now
tnat I am far from home, I can
realize as never before, how much
my family means to me. I feel a
strong sense of responsibility to
wards my parents. For their sakes.
I must do my utmost,
in
words but in action, our i
their regards
or their
paren
In the past year, six families belonging to our Church in
Kaslo were called to Toronto and
Montreal by the Nisei who went
tnere in advance. In one of these
cases, an aged mother, who had
a physical ailment, was called by
her sons in Montreal and there
she was given the best available
medical treatment and now she is
perfectly well and happy. -These
men are now trying to induce their
brother-in-law and his family to
go and join them.
The loyalty of our Nisei relocees
to the country of their birth is
both genuine and praise-worthy.
The greatest disappointment for
the Nisei
the denial, of the
privilege of serving the country as
normal Canadians, fet they remain
true. A young man I met at Hamil
ton, a U. B. C. graduate, told me
that he was refused when he tried
to join the army, he tried to enlist
in the air-force but was rejected;
and so he had decided to train him
self in the normal school as a tea
cher in order to serve the country
in that capacity. As a religious
faith which, in face of repeated mis
fortunes, can still say with Job
“Though he slay me, yet will I
trust in him”, can be said to be
genuine and not mercenary; so the
BULL SESSION
on swoowooiiing a la frankie; looking back at 1943 sono...
Premiere appearance of this
column for 44—wherein your col
umnist will devote the next couple
issues of B. S. to a review of things
musical and jazzical in 43.
1943—song hits were routine
with a few notable exceptions—not
much doing in the record angle
owing to AFM prexy James Pet
rillo’s ban on discing since Sept.
1942 which was finally lifted last
October—But, lots of band movies
—and of course Frankie S.—
“OH! FRANKIE!!”
Needless to say swooncrooner
Frank Sinatra’s advent in the
national limelight was the big news
of last year. As the year began
and White Christmas was finally
giving way to songs such as There
Are Such Things, Mr. S., formerly
of Thomas Dorsey’s and Harold
James’ orks, started those bobby
socks screaming in a feature spot
on the Lucky Strick Hit Poll.
Sinatra who has consistently led
music trade magazine polls as the
number one male singer in the
country over such stalwarts as
Jimmy Dorsey’s Bob Eberly and
the Groaner himself, Bingstein
Crosby, became a household word
—through some effective All or
Nothing At AlPing and You’ll
Never Know’ing and put the word
“swooncrooning” in our daily jar
gon.
His physical appearance—“as if
he needed a square meal” says one
writer—his remarkable mike tech
nique and his bow ties and boyish
smile (who cares if he’s the father
of two children)—all seemed to
have helped—which goes to show
something but I hate to say exactly
hat.
So now he is the STAR of the
Hit Parade as the announcer pridefully shouts every Saturday night
•—he has another program all his
own on Wednesdays—he has a
movie contract and his first pic
Higher and Higher is having ter-
rific reception everywhere..
Reports from an American re
location center in California show
that Nisei also are being affected
by Swoonatra—in that bow ties are
being revived a la you know who.
And even up here in the wintry
wilds of Canada—his recording of
“Night and Day” can disturb the
daily routine of an interior center
with scores of impressionable fe
males dashing madly toward the
source with the shrill battlecry
“That’s Frankie!!”. I Pughta know
—I still have some scars to show
where I w-as trampled on in the
rush—
HIT PARADE SURVEY
Here’s looking over the song hit
scoreboard—after the well-deserv
ed reign of White Christmas came
to an end finally in mid January
with There Are Such Things taking
over then followed a free-for-all
with That Old Black Magic and
I’ve Heard That Song Before
punching mightily—Brazil which is
now a standard in the books of
most dance orks was holding ts
own.
Then came ^ing Crosby’s Moon
light Becomes You from the pic
Road to Morocco—As Time Goes
By from Casablanca got the Sinat
ra treatment a-plenty — Duke El
lington’s Don’t Get Around Much
Anymore based on his Never No
Lament was around.
You’d Be So Nice To Come Home
To by Cole Porter was hummed—
a Dinah Shore recording pushed it
up—Taking A Chance On Love and
Cabin In The Sky enjoyed a re
vival when that Broadway hit was
screened with an all-coloured cast
including delectable Lena Home
and the incomparable Duke of El
lington—
It Can’t Be Wrong sighed Mr.
S. and the bobby socks swooned
anew — a worthy successor to
Praise the Lord, etc., was Cornin’
In On A Wing And A Prayer—
Rosie was Rivetting—Dearly Be
loved was the delightful product
of a Johnny Mercer-Jerome Kern
collaboration on the score of an
Astaire-Hayworth pic—Murder He
Says was being yelled out by
Betty Huttons all over the place—
along with “L. S.—M. F. T. “was
Swoonatra’s suggestion Let’s Get
Lost. .. mmmm—Rose Anne was
being nice at Charing Cross—Louis
Alter’s beautiful Manhattan Sere
nade became, a popular song-hit—
In The Blue Of Evening with
Frankie and his mike-swaying—
All Or Nothing At All was revived
and became another Sinatra stand
ard—so was Bing Crosby’s It’s
Always You From the Road to
Zanzibar — nope girls, Frankie
didn’t intro that song—
Some higher quality lyrics hit
the parade toward the end of the
year—like You’ll Never Know from
Alice Faye’s Hello Frisco Hello—
el Bingo’s If You Please and that
smooth Sunday Monday or Always
from Dixie—Stormy Weather got
a strong. rebirth when a pic was
made with that title starring Lena
Horne and William Robinson of
the tricky feet—Another oldie was
For Me and My Gal from a musifiicker with Judy Garland and
Gene Kelly—
Then good old Pistol Packing
Mama broke on the national con
sciousness with a BANG----White
Christmas (again) and I’ll Be
Home For Christmas( a smoothie
specially with the Crosby treat

day season—My Heart Tells Me
from a Betty Grable cinema hit
first place and hogged there ever
since—only competish are two
beauties from the Broadway musi
cal Oklahoma!—Oh What a Beau
tiful Morning and the sweet People
Will Say We’re In Love—and of
course that Paper Doll that’s gotta
be found — then don’t forget
They’re Either Too Young or Too
Old from the Warner Bros, allstar hit Thank Your Lucky Stars—
Other comers at this present
date—How Sweet You Are from
the same Warner Bros, pic—For
the First Time—My Shining Hour
a beauty from the Astaire-Leslie

Shoo baby, No Love, No Nothing—
Future possibilities are Star
Eyes from the Jimmy Dorsey

who Skelton — Candlelight and
Wine from a new Kay Kyser flick
er—Blue Rain which you should
hear Glenn Miller’s recording of—
tunes from Higher and Higher—
Speak Low from the Broadway hit
One Touch Of Venus—
So comes 30 for this turn and
next week I’ll go into Duke Elling
ton—Dick Haymes—righteous jazz
—records—and movie bands—
“INTERNMENT”
(Continued from P. 2)
The other food was insufficient and
poorly cooked, but the splendid
gifts from the British branch of
the International Red Cross helped
wonderfully to make up for the
lack, and gifts from Japanese
friends, whenever they were al
lowed to bring them, did much to
help provide a more satisfactory
diet.
The guards were most kind and
considerate, endeavoring to make
camp life as comfortable as pos
sible.
The chapel was allowel to be
open all day (and even all night
on two or three special occasions).
The R. C. sisters—who were of
twelve different orders—used it
constantly, and had mass every day7
that the priest (a Japanese) was
able to come. But we Protestants
were privileged to have the use of
the chapel for one hour every7
morning for our worship service,
and from early in the spring, a
loyalty ot those who can remain
loyal in spite of all injustices and.
disappointments piled on them, can
be said to be true and sincere. The
loyalty of our
is of
such character.
Obviously the chief onus of accomplishing full resettlement must
lie on the Nisei. It is a great res—
ponsibipty. h or a successful prose
cution of the task, the Nisef need
to hax e all the available light, as
veil as an adequate guiding prin—
ciple- These we shall discuss in the
two following papers. Here I wish
to take up briefly two points, of
which I am certain most of the
Nisei are well aware.
It will be well for the Nisei to
be on guard against forming in
themselves
a
minority-complex.
They should be able to see and
think problems, not always from
the Nisei standpoint, but from
wider points of view. When they
are fighting for their rights, they
should realize that it is not merely
for the benefit of their own small
gioup, that they are doing so, but
for the good of the whole country,
because the presence of injustice
towards any minority
----------- ., group is
neither good nor healthy for any
social or political organization.
Another truth we should remember is this; that goodness is never
lost wherever, whenever or to
whomsoever we do it. Therefore,
be never discouraged though the
day be dark and crooked, but per
sist in the doing of good, and you
will win the victory in the end. The
reason ? It 's simply because the
Universe is so constituted, and has
been proved in history. Read Em
erson’s essay on “Compensation,’’
and you will get that conviction.
Here I shall quote a verse on the
same theme, sent to me by an
Occidental friend at Christmas:
God always gives a better thing
Than that He takes away,
Exceeding joy to-morrow
. For tears we shed to-day,
Immeasurable treasure
For the gain we counted loss,
Yea, an hundredfold of blessing
For the bearing of the Cross.”

His beautiful spirit as he led us
in that holy service emphasized
again the bond of Christian fellow
ship, and the fact that in Christ
there is no east nor west.
It was about twenty-five years
ago that the so-called Nisei Ques

although
the
educational
phase of it received‘consideration
very much earlier. “The Problem

All that is a past history. Not

the Editor of this paper in his edi

“the day of the Nisei has definitely
become a living reality.”
One of the students who attended
the Jasper Park Conference, refer
red to in the preceding paragraph,
who took much interest in the
Nisei question and has since been
corresponding with me (always
with his wife, who was also at the
Conference as a girl), wrote to me
early last year, in which he said
in part:
“We well remember with what

on many scores, among which was
the charge that they were irres

to pave their way for a brighterfuture, my faith in, and admiration

I came back from my trip, recall

To begin with, he experiences
of the past two years proved that
in most cases, it

strong affection, characteristic of
the Japanese parents for their
children, which refused to let them

Nisei from venturing' to pioneer in

were more reasonable and followed
their venerated maxim. "If vou

courageous and daring, went for
th cheerfully “not knowing whither

days when our young men, most
of them out of their homes for the
first time in their life-time, left
for Schreiber night after night?
It is hard even for soldiers to leave
their dear ones behind, even though
honor went with them; but for
these Nisei boys to leave with a
sort of stigma for no other reason
but that they happened to be born
of a certain race, was much hard—
Girls were no less daring. I
think of a girl who used to help
me in my office, still in the teens,
who cheerfully went to an Ontario

and of those gills, mostly about fifteen years old, with whom we bade

men are now trying to induce their
brother-in-law and his family to

The loyalty of our Nisei relocees
to the country of their birth is
both genuine and praise-worthy.
The greatest disappointment for
the Nisei
the denial, of the
privilege of serving the country as
normal Canadians, fet they remain
true. A young man I met at Hamil
ton, a U. B. C. graduate, told me
that he was refused when he tried
to join the army, he tried to enlist
in the air-force but was rejected;
and so he had decided to train him
self in the normal school as a tea
cher in order to serve the country
in that capacity. As a religious
faith which, in face of repeated mis
fortunes, can still say with Job
“Though he slay me, yet will I
trust in him”, can be said to be
genuine and not mercenary; so the
BULL SESSION
on swoowooiiing a la frankie; looking back at 1943 sono...
Premiere appearance of this
column for 44—wherein your col
umnist will devote the next couple
issues of B. S. to a review of things
musical and jazzical in 43.
1943—song hits were routine
with a few notable exceptions—not
much doing in the record angle
owing to AFM prexy James Pet

1942 which was finally lifted last
October—But, lots of band movies
—and of course Frankie S.—
“OH! FRANKIE!!”
Needless to say swooncrooner
Frank Sinatra’s advent in the
national limelight was the big news
of last year. As the year began
and White Christmas was finally
giving way to songs such as There
Are Such Things, Mr. S., formerly
of Thomas Dorsey’s and Harold
James’ orks, started those bobby
socks screaming in a feature spot
on the Lucky Strick Hit Poll.
Sinatra who has consistently led
music trade magazine polls as the
number one male singer in the
country over such stalwarts as
Jimmy Dorsey’s Bob Eberly and
the Groaner himself, Bingstein
Crosby, became a household word
—through some effective All or
Nothing At AlPing and You’ll
Never Know’ing and put the word
“swooncrooning” in our daily jar
gon.
His physical appearance—“as if
he needed a square meal” says one
writer—his remarkable mike tech
nique and his bow ties and boyish
smile (who cares if he’s the father
of two children)—all seemed to
have helped—which goes to show
something but I hate to say exactly
hat.
So now he is the STAR of the
Hit Parade as the announcer pridefully shouts every Saturday night
•—he has another program all his
own on Wednesdays—he has a
movie contract and his first pic
Higher and Higher is having ter-
rific reception everywhere..
Reports from an American re
location center in California show
that Nisei also are being affected
by Swoonatra—in that bow ties are
being revived a la you know who.
And even up here in the wintry
wilds of Canada—his recording of
“Night and Day” can disturb the
daily routine of an interior center
with scores of impressionable fe
males dashing madly toward the
source with the shrill battlecry
“That’s Frankie!!”. I Pughta know

“INTERNMENT”
(Continued from P. 2)
The other food was insufficient and
poorly cooked, but the splendid
gifts from the British branch of
the International Red Cross helped
wonderfully to make up for the
lack, and gifts from Japanese
friends, whenever they were al
lowed to bring them, did much to
help provide a more satisfactory
diet.
The guards were most kind and
considerate, endeavoring to make
camp life as comfortable as pos
sible.
The chapel was allowel to be
open all day (and even all night
on two or three special occasions).
The R. C. sisters—who were of
twelve different orders—used it
constantly, and had mass every day7
that the priest (a Japanese) was
able to come. But we Protestants
were privileged to have the use of
the chapel for one hour every7
morning for our worship service,
and from early in the spring, a
loyalty ot those who can remain
loyal in spite of all injustices and.
disappointments piled on them, can
be said to be true and sincere. The
loyalty of our
is of
such character.
Obviously the chief onus of accomplishing full resettlement must
lie on the Nisei. It is a great res—
ponsibipty. h or a successful prose
cution of the task, the Nisef need
to hax e all the available light, as
veil as an adequate guiding prin—
ciple- These we shall discuss in the
two following papers. Here I wish
to take up briefly two points, of
which I am certain most of the
Nisei are well aware.
It will be well for the Nisei to
be on guard against forming in
themselves
a
minority-complex.
They should be able to see and
think problems, not always from
the Nisei standpoint, but from
wider points of view. When they
are fighting for their rights, they
should realize that it is not merely
for the benefit of their own small
gioup, that they are doing so, but
for the good of the whole country,
because the presence of injustice
towards any minority
----------- ., group is
neither good nor healthy for any
social or political organization.
Another truth we should remember is this; that goodness is never
lost wherever, whenever or to
whomsoever we do it. Therefore,
be never discouraged though the
day be dark and crooked, but per
sist in the doing of good, and you
will win the victory in the end. The
reason ? It 's simply because the
Universe is so constituted, and has
been proved in history. Read Em
erson’s essay on “Compensation,’’
and you will get that conviction.
Here I shall quote a verse on the
same theme, sent to me by an
Occidental friend at Christmas:
God always gives a better thing
Than that He takes away,
Exceeding joy to-morrow
. For tears we shed to-day,
Immeasurable treasure
For the gain we counted loss,
Yea, an hundredfold of blessing
For the bearing of the Cross.”
—Beatrice Cleland
