The Royal Commission investigating
housing, maintenance and welfare conditions
m the interior settlements placed a definite
stamp of approval on the dispersal policy. “It
expressed belief,” says the report, “that the
policy of dispersing the Japanese across
Canada in productive, self-supporting em
ployment singly, in small groups or family
units is in the best interests of Canada and of
the Japanese themselves.” Much of its con
clusions and recommendations, therefore, are
based on the thought that the policy is work
able and that it is being effectively carried out.
The thought is correct in part. But there
is probably greater accuracy in the analvsis
contained in a recent Toronto Saturday Night
article, to the effect that present policies are
not very rapidly effecting such distribution of
residents of Japanese stock as is desirable.
That article maintained that the fault does
not lie with the Security Commission, but
rather that under present public policies of
provincial and federal authorities a successful
dispersal program can not be accomplished.
This, it was felt, was due to vociferous
thought unwarranted public hostility, and to
the fact that confidence in the good faith of
the federal authorities has been severely un
dermined by the events of the past two vears.
What continues to be the obvious neces
sity, therefore, is simply what these columns
have been hammering at ever since “re-allo
cation” was first pronounced by the Federal
Government. In brief “placement of man
power” must become genuine “resettlement of
human beings” if the majority of employable
and acceptable evacuees are once again to
become productive forces in normal society.
There is no question but that the most
capable and courageous evacuees, undaunted
by many difficulties, have already elected to

come and even more doubtful future.

March 25. 1944.
The Jackson Report
Although the report of the Jackson
Royal Commission tabled this week in the
House may prove a disappointment to
many residents of the interior settlements,
it will not occasion very great surprise.
Substantially the report bears out the
anticipations mentioned .editorially in these
columns last January that it was “difficult
to foresee any far-reaching change in the in
terior towns.” This may be attributed to the
nature of conditions as actually studied by
the Royal Commissioners, to the dispersal
program which seems to have been adopted
more or less as official Government policy,
and to the exigencies of wartime interna
tional relations.
Other than a fairly complete approval
of what has been done by the Government
in the settlements to date, the sug
gestions are brief.
The Commissioners point to the basic
disadvantages of the town locations, as far
as the establishment of productive indus
try is concerned. Hence they urge an even
greater emphasis on the placement ot em
ployable persons in self-supporting em
ployment. This, they believe, can chiefly be
accomplished by the relocation of evacuee
workers at present on Security Commission
payrolls, even though it might impair ad
ministrative efficiency in the towns. Wel
fare departments might also be strength
ened to give added emphasis to the advan
tages of relocations.
So far as education is concerned, the
Royal Commission has confirmed the in
dictment of the British Columbia Govern
ment in refusing “to take any responsibility
for the education” of' children in the settle
ments. It implies an approval of what has
been done under the circumstances, but
adds a significantly-worded recommenda
tion that negotiations be re-opened with the
provincial department of education in an
effort to have it “reassume its obligations.”
On the central point of wages and
maintenance, the Commission apparently
placed a much higher value on the “perquisites such as shelter, fuel, light and med
ical care” supplied by the Security Com
mission1 than the actual recipients have
done. At the same time it recommended an
increased wage scale where practicable,
which might, be counteracted by higher de
ductions for services provided by the Secur
ity Commission.
The one substantial recommendation,
for which there is an unquestioned basic
need, was to urge a slight increase in food
maintenance rates for aged, infirm and un
employable persons. This increase, however,
is not to be more than 10 per cent, and is
to be granted at the discretion of the Wel
fare Department. The limited concession
made in this respect suggests that repre
sentations placed before the Commission by
the various camp committees were not near
Iv as scientifically sound and convincing as
thev might verv well’ have been.

Thank you for the “New Cana

ber. On November 21, I under
went a successsful operation at
Montreal’ General Hospital, and
during the time of convalescence,
both at hospital and at home, was
delighted with the number of Nisei
and Issei visitors I had. With
their help and that of other Mon
treal friends, I was kept well sup
plied with fruit, flowers, and
books; and the most complete sur
prise was a gift of beautiful white
chrysanthemums from the Slocan
Anglican Church.
On account of my enforced ab
sence, I have not yet met a num
ber of the new arrivals since Nov
ember, but am hoping gradually to
catch up with all the duties still
undone. Owing to the fact that our
winter this year was much less
severe than last year, the B. C.
people now consider that rumours
of Montreal’s terrible climate were
unfounded! Last year’s low tem
peratures were the worst in over
fifty years, so we are not likely to
see them again for some time.
During the fall, two births and
three marriages have created a

From the Pacific Citizen:
Return of Nisei to Army-Service
Was Greatest Foward Step
The recent announcement of the
reopening of selective service pro
cedures was the greatest single
step forward for Japanese Amer
icans toward complete restitution
of their war-shorn privileges and
obligations. The ‘ reinstitution of
the draft may be considered a
direct result of the performances
of the two “segregated” units,
the combat record of the 100th
Infantry Battalion and the prom
ise of the Combat Team.
There is little indication at
present to lend to the belief that
the United States army is pur
suing any avowed policy of seg
regation of soldiers of Japanese
ancestry. It is believed that the
two Japanese American units
which have been activited will re
ceive replacements from among
those Japanese Americans who
are being drafted, but it is to be
hoped that the general policy of
the military forces will not bear
the stigma of racial segregation.
We know that Japanese Ameri
cans will bear their share of the
obligations of citizenship, for only
by positive action can we insure
the future for which other Ameri
cans of Japanese ancestry are
already fighting and dying. Let
it be said, if need be, that the
Japanese Americans were willing
to give more than might have
been expected of them, in the face
of the evacuation and its attendant
rigors, for the right to live as free
men in a free world.
Government Urged
To Take Steps in
Defence of the Loyal:
There are at least four argu
ments for a government-sponsored
campaign to defend the name of
loyal Japanese Americans.
First, there is moral obligation
on the part of the government to
support the position of a racial
minority
•which
has
suffered
through no fault of its own, and
whose troubles have been in part
due to the not altogether rair
policy of the government curing
a critical war emergency.
Second, there is much to be
gained in national unity, and _ a
consequent strengthening or tne
nation’s strength? in combatting
fear, suspicion and dissension a= a
consequence
of
misinformation
about, or a deliberate hate cam
paign against Japanese Americans.
Third, ammunition for propa
ganda damaging to tne United -'■y
tions can be prevented from rescu
ing the enemy by refusing Ayep
icans who espouse the racial nared line of the Axis nations.
Fourth, the government can ad
vance its own program rovaru
elimination of racial minority pro
blems (of which the WRA program
is but a small part), by nippy?
the trouble at its origin— wnu^
is the race hatred agitator.

are being drafted, but it is to be
hoped that the general policy of
the military forces will not bear
the stigma of racial segregation.
We know that Japanese Ameri
cans will bear their share of the
obligations of citizenship, for only
by positive action can we insure
the future for which other Ameri
cans of Japanese ancestry are
already fighting and dying. Let
it be said, if need be, that the
Japanese Americans were willing
to give more than might have
been expected of them, in the face
of the evacuation and its attendant
rigors, for the right to live as free
men in a free world.
Government Urged
To Take Steps in
Defence of the Loyal:
There are at least four argu
ments for a government-sponsored
campaign to defend the name of
loyal Japanese Americans.
First, there is moral obligation
on the part of the government to
support the position of a racial
minority
•which
has
suffered
through no fault of its own, and
whose troubles have been in part
due to the not altogether rair
policy of the government curing
a critical war emergency.
Second, there is much to be
gained in national unity, and _ a
consequent strengthening or tne
nation’s strength? in combatting
fear, suspicion and dissension a= a
consequence
of
misinformation
about, or a deliberate hate cam
paign against Japanese Americans.
Third, ammunition for propa
ganda damaging to tne United -'■y
tions can be prevented from rescu
ing the enemy by refusing Ayep
icans who espouse the racial nared line of the Axis nations.
Fourth, the government can ad
vance its own program rovaru
elimination of racial minority pro
blems (of which the WRA program
is but a small part), by nippy?
the trouble at its origin— wnu^
is the race hatred agitator.

In the Hamilton telephone direc
tory, he is listed as Holland, O.W..
Lawyer, ^2 James North. Tele
phone 7-0911. To all obvious Pur
poses this caption seems enough,
fulfilling its intended need, but for
a few with bigoted concepts of
Canadian democracy, and the prin
ciples contained therein, it might
be said to be Licking. For us too
it might oe lacking, but we have
another reason
a much deeper and a better reason. Oliver
Wendell Holland is a negro law
yer, born and bred in Hamilton, a
graduate of the great law institute
in Toronto, Osgoode Hall.
Negro lawyer? What kind of a
man is he? His character? His
background? His outlook on racial
issues? His training? His prac
tice? These might be a few of the
questions springing to our minds.
Because he is a negro? Yes. But
our interest is not derived from a
consideration of a mutation of the
ordinary, a freak in the circus of
environmental factors, but rather
■a fraternal interest, for in m^ny
ways, and yet so much less, our
problems and our approach to life
run on the same parallel plane as
the race which he represents.
He spoke to the Sophy-Eds last
night. We were not disappointed.
In his all-too-short talk we found
a man strong in character, strong
in resolution, strong in courage
and foresight. He left a message
with the Nisei told in simple words
and with simple illustrations. It
was a message which every Nisei
there understood and took to his
heart for it came from the depths
of the speaker’s heart with hon
esty, and candor, and a sincere
desire to help.
However, in all truthfulness we
must say, that the message he left
with us was not entirely new. Most
likely the speaker was completely
aware of that fact more than the
audience to which he spoke. He
mentioned racial discrimination in
the matter of housing and employ
ment met by the negro people. He
told us of the incident when the
Hall Johnson Choir came to Ham
ilton to sing in the city’s churches
and theatres and yet were forced
to spend the night in their buses,
because no hotel would take them
in. He told us of a great Negro
contralto being turned away from
the doors of hotels and how she
became a guest of one of the city’s
most distinguished woman.
In speaking further of his race,
he stated that there was discrimination even
among
his
own people, Decause one was
lighter than he other . because
one had more money than the
other, because one was more
educated than the othe?r. Emphatically he rated that the be‘gin
should be within our own
racial groups. The earnest advice
he gave could be well taken heed
of by many Nisei. Said he:
"Don’t go around with a chip on
your shoulders. By all means
prove—and you have to prove
yourself a little better than the
rest of the people, but never
think of yourself as superior, or
inferior—that you are just as
human as thev.”
In answer to questions put to
him from the listeners, he spoke of
himself. Yes, he had “run-in;
with members of his profession,
but before the courts of law he
was treated as an equal—as tne
law states all men to be. “Yes
they told me what I could expect
when I started out. I could speak
for hours on what I have encoun
tered. For nine years I worked as
a red cap down at the T. H. & B.
station and scooted out of there
as soon as I could.”
The most impressive note of his
talk was his foresight into the
future. The problem of racial dis
crimination is a great problem, unabled to be solved even by laws
enacted in the council chambers
of a nation. But, what we are
going through and the fight we
are putting up, will be of benefit
to our children—and to their children and their children’s children.
The evening was ended on a
note of fellowship and goodwill
with the visitor rendering a few
spirituals to the enjoyment of all,
ahd later conducting the sing-song
with great vigour and pleasure,
As he stood up there singing
loudly in unison with the black
haired
isei group with their
Mongilian fold over their eyes
and their slight shaped noses, did
not the colour of his skin fade into
nothingness ? Did not his racial
features disappear into meaning
less? Yes, they did. And for a
moment—and such
a
precious
moment—the solution to the pro
blem had been found. It was under
standing and sincerity. It was fel
lowship and a bond of common
purpose. It was love of one being
for another—and the love for all.
True Ganadianism
(The Kaslo Kootenaian)
It is a historic fact: racial min
orities in Canada are allowed to
practise for generations after they
immigrate to this country, the cus
toms, traditions and language of
the nations from which they came.
From the Scotch settlements in
Cape Breton to the “English sec
tion” of Victoria, one may pass
through French Quebec, the Ger
man settlements in Ontario and
the prairie provinces; the Finnish
and Scandinavian colonies around
Port Arthur and Kenora; the big
Ukrainian areas in Manitoba
the provinces to the west; the Italians in Toronto, Winnipeg and
Trail; the scandalous Doukhobors
of Nelson and the boundar; country; the evacuee settlements of
Japanese in interior B. C.; and the
Hindu and the Chinese sections of
the coast cities of B. C. What does
it all mean ? Some of1 these people
have been living in Canada for up
wards of fifty years, and many
third generation native bom Cana
dians converse ■ only in their for
eign tongue.
There are some who saytheiault
lies at the doors ot th<
nant political parties of Canad
who prefer to have

But whether as
national snobbishness of the
tied Britishers in the commt
or the national loneliness on
err
arrival, these racial minorities
have continued to grow into little
Russias, little Swedens, little Ger
manies and little Tokios, until we
find ourselves in a pretty pickle
■when, as# now, we are at war with
some of these nations, because our
government has allowed these for
eign groups to cling to their
national traditions, and have not
made Canadian ideals and citizen
ship important in their eyes.
Why, we have not even a Cana
dian Flag for them to look up to.
Of course our legal code, judiciary
and government are copied close
to the British pattern, and that is
as it should be: but it is high time
a definitely Canadian Citizenship
is appearing out of the welter of
foreign races we have gathered in
Canada. There is no reason why
the best things in all the national
life we have attracted from Eur
ope, Asia and the British Isles,
should not grow finally into a
special kind of freedom that can
be truly named Canadian DemoJust now boys of all these
nationalities are m the Canadian
fighting forces, defending the type
of life they have learned to love
in Canada. It should be a primal
duty of our legislators, educators
and social workers to fuse this way
111€ into a tine Canadianisn
respect and
that v
older
civilizaot
acclaim
firms from which we have sprung.
We want no repetition of the racial
feuds of Europe here in Canada;
only be kept out by*
higher code of cit:p
of the co-operative
n t. s new land, in which
for all, to develop
there is roo:
a true spirit »f national unity.

In the Hamilton telephone direc

Lawyer, ^2 James North. Tele

poses this caption seems enough,
fulfilling its intended need, but for
a few with bigoted concepts of
Canadian democracy, and the prin
ciples contained therein, it might
be said to be Licking. For us too
it might oe lacking, but we have
another reason
a much deeper and a better reason. Oliver
Wendell Holland is a negro law
yer, born and bred in Hamilton, a
graduate of the great law institute
in Toronto, Osgoode Hall.
Negro lawyer? What kind of a
man is he? His character? His
background? His outlook on racial
issues? His training? His prac
tice? These might be a few of the
questions springing to our minds.
Because he is a negro? Yes. But
our interest is not derived from a
consideration of a mutation of the
ordinary, a freak in the circus of
environmental factors, but rather
■a fraternal interest, for in m^ny
ways, and yet so much less, our
problems and our approach to life
run on the same parallel plane as
the race which he represents.
He spoke to the Sophy-Eds last
night. We were not disappointed.
In his all-too-short talk we found
a man strong in character, strong
in resolution, strong in courage
and foresight. He left a message
with the Nisei told in simple words
and with simple illustrations. It
was a message which every Nisei
there understood and took to his
heart for it came from the depths
of the speaker’s heart with hon
esty, and candor, and a sincere
desire to help.
However, in all truthfulness we
must say, that the message he left
with us was not entirely new. Most
likely the speaker was completely
aware of that fact more than the
audience to which he spoke. He
mentioned racial discrimination in
the matter of housing and employ
ment met by the negro people. He
told us of the incident when the
Hall Johnson Choir came to Ham
ilton to sing in the city’s churches
and theatres and yet were forced
to spend the night in their buses,
because no hotel would take them
in. He told us of a great Negro
contralto being turned away from
the doors of hotels and how she
became a guest of one of the city’s
most distinguished woman.
In speaking further of his race,
he stated that there was discrimination even
among
his
own people, Decause one was
lighter than he other . because
one had more money than the
other, because one was more
educated than the othe?r. Emphatically he rated that the be‘gin
should be within our own
racial groups. The earnest advice
he gave could be well taken heed
of by many Nisei. Said he:
"Don’t go around with a chip on
your shoulders. By all means
prove—and you have to prove
yourself a little better than the
rest of the people, but never
think of yourself as superior, or
inferior—that you are just as
human as thev.”
In answer to questions put to
him from the listeners, he spoke of
himself. Yes, he had “run-in;
with members of his profession,
but before the courts of law he
was treated as an equal—as tne
law states all men to be. “Yes
they told me what I could expect
when I started out. I could speak
for hours on what I have encoun
tered. For nine years I worked as
a red cap down at the T. H. & B.
station and scooted out of there
as soon as I could.”
The most impressive note of his
talk was his foresight into the
future. The problem of racial dis
crimination is a great problem, unabled to be solved even by laws
enacted in the council chambers
of a nation. But, what we are
going through and the fight we
are putting up, will be of benefit
to our children—and to their children and their children’s children.
The evening was ended on a
note of fellowship and goodwill
with the visitor rendering a few
spirituals to the enjoyment of all,
ahd later conducting the sing-song
with great vigour and pleasure,
As he stood up there singing
loudly in unison with the black
haired
isei group with their
Mongilian fold over their eyes
and their slight shaped noses, did
not the colour of his skin fade into
nothingness ? Did not his racial
features disappear into meaning
less? Yes, they did. And for a
moment—and such
a
precious
moment—the solution to the pro
blem had been found. It was under
standing and sincerity. It was fel
lowship and a bond of common
purpose. It was love of one being
for another—and the love for all.
True Ganadianism
(The Kaslo Kootenaian)
It is a historic fact: racial min
orities in Canada are allowed to
practise for generations after they
immigrate to this country, the cus
toms, traditions and language of
the nations from which they came.
From the Scotch settlements in
Cape Breton to the “English sec
tion” of Victoria, one may pass
through French Quebec, the Ger
man settlements in Ontario and
the prairie provinces; the Finnish
and Scandinavian colonies around
Port Arthur and Kenora; the big
Ukrainian areas in Manitoba
the provinces to the west; the Italians in Toronto, Winnipeg and
Trail; the scandalous Doukhobors
of Nelson and the boundar; country; the evacuee settlements of
Japanese in interior B. C.; and the
Hindu and the Chinese sections of
the coast cities of B. C. What does
it all mean ? Some of1 these people
