Stress To Unity?
The recent Parliament Hill focus on the
Japanese question has provoked editorial com
ment from two leading Montreal dailies. One
of these, from the Star, despite its thousands
of words, may be dismissed with only the un
happy comment that it repeats in parrot-like
fashion the familiar race-baiting terms of west
coast politicos and the Vancouver Sun. It is,
in short, the sort of thing we might well expect
from the newspaper know as one of the most
reactionary in the entire Dominion.
The Montreal Gazette, on the other hand,
is much briefer. It does manage to offer the
constructive thought that “the problem is
not regional” and urges that if “national
unity” is threatened by the stress of the ques
tion felt in British Columbia, then the country
needs to think and act as a whole on the mat
ter. But it does not -outline what that thinking
and action ought to be.
And yet the Gazette is in a very favor
able position to know. W “liberal” journal in
racially cosmopolitan Montreal ought to be
well aware of the many factors—economic,
social and emotional—that influence racial
relations. But its daily record of Montreal’s
activities ought also to reveal the fundamental
sameness of human nature, whether it be
clothed in an English, French, Japanese or
Chinese exterior. That understanding will
surely provide the Gazette with the most de
sirable guidance “in matters of this kind.”
When west coast politicos or the Mon
treal Star advocate racial persecution and
postwar deportation, they threaten the com
plete trampling of the rights of every minority
group in the country, they assail every tenet of
Canadian democracy, and they seek to rob
Canadian citizenship of everything which
gives its value. The Gazette surely will not
urge that Eastern Canada accede to demands
of that nature to overcome any stress to Cana
dian unity. For upon what, indeed, is the es
sential unity of our far-flung and broad coun
try country based, other than upon these self-
The Mig’ht Have Been
An American contemporary reports an
item in its current issue which provokes some
interesting speculation into the realm of the
“might-have-been.” Fifty Japanese women
and children, some of them wives and families
of United States soldiers sein ing overseas,
have arrived unescorted in San Francisco
from various parts of the country, and are
now awaiting transportation back to former
homes in Hawaii. Some were attending school
in the Uni toil States when the Pacific war be
gan: others were members of small evacuee
groups moved from the islands to relieve the
pressure of accomodation arising from the
tremendous influx of military personnel to
that base.
In the midst of the continuing clamour
in Ottawa’s House of Commons, as io the
“perplexing problem" of the present and post
war disposition of evacuees uprooted from
former Pacific Coast homes, the contrast with
Hawaii is striking. For Hawaii has not en
countered any problem at all. From the out
set. the Japanese were allowed to remain in
their homes, carry on with their daily pro
ductive work, and serve the heavy wartime
labour needs of the Islands. And this, despite
the fact that one-third of the territory’s popu
lation is of Japanese ancestry, and that the
Islands themselves are perhaps the most im
portant military installation the United
States nossesses in the Pacific.
Far from posing any present or future
problem, Hawaii’s Japanese Americans,
who have been justly treated as Americans,
have proved themselves an invaluable asset
to the cause of the United Nations. They
have given the entire world the proof posi
tive that democratic treatment can and will
assure unswerving loyalty and devotion.
For it is on the record of the U. S. Wrar
Department and the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation that no sabotage was committed
in Hawaii. Japanese American citizens
have bo.osted war loans and blood banks to
the limit. And it is Hawaii’s Japanese
American battalion serving in Italv—at
Salerno, at Cassino and Anzio—that has
won almost a thousand decorations for gal
lantly in action.
Historians of the future will record the
contrast in policies which prevailed with
respect to Hawaii and the Pacific mainland.
If they are unprejudiced, let us hope they
will also be gentle.
Causing No Trouble
Under federal order-in-council the
Minister of Labor, his deputy who is also
National Selective Service Director, and the
Commissioner of Japanese Placement are
charged with the supervision and care of
persons of Japanese ancestry in Canada.
They speak, therefore, with an official res
ponsibility in startling contrast to a great
many other people in the country.
Mr. Mitchell made a very reasonable
point in the House of Commons discussions
recently when he told members that his de
partment. did not consider the Japanese in
Canada a serious problem. Almost half, he
said, -were now back on a complete selfsupporting basis and with very few excep
tions, no trouble had been met in the admin
istration of complicated and radical war
time policy.
A similar story, derived from even
more intimate contact, is related by the •
placement officer for Southern Ontario. He
relates that in a recent survey it was found
that 210 young men placed in one city alone
over the past two years were still working
steadily and industriously at the same jobs
to which they were first introduced. Em
ployers, he noted, were completely satisfied.
So smooth, in fact, had things been going
in this direction that he had completely
overlooked this fact, his attention being oc
cupied by frequent labor turnovers of other
evacuees.
It all goes to suggest that if, you leavepeople alone, without hedging .them about
with unnecessary restriction and bigoted
criticism, they will prove very capable of
being decent, industrious, law-abiding
citizens.
Cost Per Capita
The Federal Government will provide
this year some $2,750,000 to finance its
wartime policy for about -3,000 people of
Japanese origin in Canada — approximate
ly $120 per capita. Congress at Washing
ton has recently approved a War Reloca
tion Authority appropriation of $40,000.
000 to finance American policy in a similar
direction. On a per capita basis this works
out to about $330.
The comparison in figures speaks for
itself.
There should be no second-grade citizens within
a democracy. In that, connection I had occasion to sav
in April. 1941, and deem it relevant to quote here that:
“I know of no principle which justifies the proposition
that any group of people, of any province or of any
industry. are mere stepchildren of the Canadian social
order and expected to be satisfied with a lower standard
of living than that generally approved by contemporary
social and economic standards.’’

of the National War Labor Board.

Nisei Note on Centennial for the ’ Y1
When on June 3, next Saturday,
the Young Men’s Christian Asso
ciation throughout most of the
world marks its one hundredth
anniversary, a great many Nisei
throughout Canada will be among
the first to offer their birthday
greetings.
They will do so in full apreciation of what the “Y” has meant
to them in very personal terms.
For the familiar triangle design in
red, white and blue has been a
welcome 'sign to many a forlorn
Nisei, adrift and friendless in the
post-evacuation world.
In the old days, the “Y” did not
mean a great deal to us. Except
for a small handful of former
Vancouverites
(remember
the
swimming pool, Bill, and the SocEd Classes that even taught a golf
swing, YPsters) the organization
famous for its friendliness was an
unknown religious organization,
quite ignored by Little Tokyo.
APPRECIATE THE YMCA
Personally, we came to know a
little of its friendliness just about
six years ago on our first trip
eastward. We found it attractive
chiefly because of its low room
rates. But we came to appreciate
too the genuine friendliness of its
officials and residents, as much as
the refreshing balm of its hot1 and
cold shower baths, in Winnipeg,
Toronto, Montreal and New York.
We noted then that instead of
meeing with any discrimination
(and anti-feeling was rising then),
we usually met people who were
very interested in the fact that we
were Japanese. In fact in Montreal
we met a clerk who spoke Japan
ese; in New York’s Sloan House,
a man who was interested in learn
ing the language.
Since the great trek eastward,
however, a great many more Nisei
have come to 'know and depend
upon the “Y”. Early in thei evacu
ation, in Toronto and Montreal it
opened its doors, even to the point
of giving employment and enroll
ing college students when almost
every other university in the coun
try had slammed them tight.
And
as
increasing numbers
gathered in the cities, it offered
its social and recreational facili
ties to meet what had become rhe
greatest need our lonely young
men felt. Its younger sister organ
ization,
the
Young
Women’s
Christian Association, has been
just as active—if not more so—in
lending a helping hand to Niseiettes wandering far from former
homes. And reports of social fun
ctions that come into the New
Canadian pages rarely fail to men
tion that the gathering place for
young men and voung -women was
the “Y”.
Thus far this work has been
most notable in the east, where
groups of Nisei have been active
in taking .advantage of the facili
ties offered. Hamilton’s Sophy-Ed
Club is an outstanding example—
but we recall on a tour last year,
moments spent in the Y’s in Mon
treal, London, Toronto and Ottawa
with Nisei groups.
NISEIS ACTIVE
Recently the General Secretary
of the National Council in Canada
said that Associations in the west
follow the same principle of no
discrimination because of race. In
dividual Nisei, it was found in a
survey, have lived in domitories
and participated in programs. He
gave the assurance that a warm
welcome awaits them in any of the
79 “Y’s” in Canada.
The anniversary observances will
centre in Montreal, where the first
institution in North America was
established in 1851. Tribute will
be paid to the spirit of George
Williams, a 23-year old draper’s
clerk of London, England, who
with eleven comrades founded the
movement, with the central
thought that life could be lived1 on
a basis of Christ’s teachings of
brotherhood. Many grateful Nisei
evacuees will join in that tribute.
Editor, The New Canadian:
It has been very worth while
reading The New Canadian and it
has given us and several of our
friends much information. But
most of all, it has shown the great
effort being made by the far-see
ing Niseis and such men as the
Rev. Shimizu, to break down the
racial compactness of the Canadian
Japanese. The paper has such a
magnificent spirit between the
lines.” We take our hats off to the
courage with which so many of the
Canadian Japanese are meeting
this terrible ordeal -which they
have had to go through.
Again, many thanks for just
being creative, and striving onwards and upwards.

It is here that the ordinary

He can give the lead. He is not

the call “Give us tools and we will

they will make our victory secure
-And glorious.
“We the re-m-akers of the world '
—is not that the thinking aim

He can become an expert at bukuing, in himself first and then in ms

The ordinary man is the man othe hour.

To Patriotism and Statesmanship”
Preparing for the Postwar World
(Editorial from the Sophy-Ed. a
monthly bulletin published by' the
Sophy-Ed Club of the Hamilton
Y. M. C. A.)
Dr. Norman Black, well known
educationist and an active member
of the C. C. F., in his pamphletentitled “A Challenge to Patriot
ism and Statemanship’-’ delves into
the Japanese “‘problem”, which, in
his words is based on “vague but
real economic fears and perplexi
ties that clamour for scapegoats.”
The new pamphlet, published
under auspices of the Christian
Social Council of Canada is a com
prehensive but concise review of
the situation which developed from
wartime evacuation, (Single cop

It is striking to note the im

If the Japanese Canadian is to
have any chance in the scramble

cannot be over emphasized. It is
of such importance that in the
words of the relocation officer,

As a solution to this “problem”,
Dr. Black advocates “geographical
and occupational dispersion” of the
Japanese people. In the following
excerpts from his pamphlet, he
-points out the major reasons as to:
WHY MANY JAPANESE ARE
DISINCLINED TO DISPERSION
In the first place, the more en
terprising of the younger people
have already gone east, and this
means steadily deteriorating lea
dership among those left behind.
Parental influence, always strong
in a Japanese community, is fre
quently not on the side of disper
sion. The older people naturally in
clude a larger proportion of folk
whose Canadianization has been
less thorough than that of the
second generation. They resent the
disruption of their families. Most
of the people caring to accept agri
cultural employment have already
gone east, and jobs offered do not
attract men who are skilled mech
anics, boat-builders, businessmen
accustomed to the conduct of inde
pendent
enterprise,
experienced
“white-collar workers” of various
sorts, or men familiar only with
fishing. Many are sadly dreaming
of their once prosperous garage, or
green grocery, or cleaning and
pressing establishment, or tailor
shop, or insurance agency, or
apartment house, -and in eastern
news they see nothing to encour
age a belief that they’ will be al
lowed opportunity to devote them
selves to occupations for winch
their training and experience best
fit them. They are concerned about
the housing situation; remaining
where they are, they at least have
a roof over their family and they
have no assurance that such would
be the case if they ventured into
distant places where they have
good reason to believe that the
housing shortage is very serious.
In the concentration settle
ments they have about them the
comfort of friendly and familiar
faces; even the whites with
whom they7 come in contact—
members of the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police, officials of the
Security Commission, teachers,
missionaries and others—they7
know to be their friends. They
also know that a friendly wel
come among strangers in distant
places is something upon which
they7 cannot count.
They7 know that under ordersin-council at present operative they7
have no chance to buy the property7
that may7 be necessary7 to their
economic independence. They' know
that so long as they7 remain in the
concentration settlements the Sec
urity7 Commission will stand be
tween them and actual want and
they7 are afraid to venture forth at
the risk of the welfare of their
dependants.
They7 are unhappy; and un
happiness does not make for
charity of thought.
INTERESTED IN EDUCATION
OF THEIR CHILDREN
The Japanese are very7 keenly7
interested in the education of their
children. Their attitude in this con
nection recalls the best traditions
of Scotland. Many7 of them own
property7 that is pay7ing taxes for
the support of schools for white
children, while the buildings and
equipment available for the edu
cation of their own families are
inadequate or unsuitable. While
the teachers are young Japanese
Canadians of good ability7 and
manifest high ideals of public ser
vice and are doing a remarkably7
good job hr ‘spite of their handi
caps, they7 almost without excep
tion are professionally untrained.
The Security7 Commission has not
responsibility7 for the education of
Japanese children beyond the elementary grades. Such high school
instruction as is available is pro
vided chiefly7 through the gener
osity7 of missionary7 bodies. While
this friendly help is greatly appre
ciated, it is felt to be an intoler
able hardship that: the governmen
tal authorities have made practi
cally7 no provision for children of
high school grades. Some of these
children are taking correspondence
courses but the fees are so high as
to be beyond the reach of parents
of limited means.
I got off the bus at Niagara
Falls feeling like a honeymooner
who had forgotten his bride.
Across the river, facing me, was
the American Falls whose thun
dering waters formed a cloud of
mist. For a moment I thought the
grounds beneath me were tremb
ling with the noise, but it was my’
imagination.
To the right of the American
Falls
is
Goat
Island
which
separates the American Falls from
Niagara Falls.
I 'walked towards the tails, sown
the artificial gateway7 to the arti
ficial railing along the artificial
roadway.
I looked down at the river where,
ice was just beginning to break
up. In summer, a boat named
“Maid of the Mist” takes you right
up to the falls' and behind it.
I followed the road to the right
towards Niagara Falls, but before
I could get very’ close, I came to
the end of my walk at a place
where two soldiers stood on guard.
Along the road at certain inter
vals there are a number of bino
culars on stands. I put a dime in
the slot and stood waving the
thing at the falls trying to get it
focussed when it clicked and 1 saw
black. It’s a racket.
RECOALMEND EDUCATION
It is obvious then that the Nisei
must strive to improve himself in
more ways pertaining to his work.
He must develop new abilities, a
positive personality7 and be ready7
for opportunities that may7 come
his way. For this end we recom
mend highly' the educational facili
ties for workers in Hamilton ....
Perhaps more than this, it is
well to note the large number of
Nisei, both men and women taking
night school courses at the univer
sity and in the city7 schools. They
have
studied
typing,
English,
mathematics, economics, radio and
leadership training. It takes quite
an effort after a hard day’s work
to attend lectures and prepare for
examinations, but we are sure
their studies will not be wasted
and that some form of reward will
come for their efforts.
The school year will soon end
and these part-time Nisei students
can look back with satisfaction to
a year when progress on their part
was made. Next September, the
new year begins and we cannot
urge too strongly; that other Nisei
follow these examples. We urge
them to look into these classes, and
we are sure that whatever line
they7 may7 wish to pursue, there
will be a class just for them. It
is good to say, “I can do this.”

INTERESTED IN EDUCATION
OF THEIR CHILDREN
The Japanese are very7 keenly7
interested in the education of their
children. Their attitude in this con
nection recalls the best traditions
of Scotland. Many7 of them own
property7 that is pay7ing taxes for
the support of schools for white
children, while the buildings and
equipment available for the edu
cation of their own families are
inadequate or unsuitable. While
the teachers are young Japanese
Canadians of good ability7 and
manifest high ideals of public ser
vice and are doing a remarkably7
good job hr ‘spite of their handi
caps, they7 almost without excep
tion are professionally untrained.
The Security7 Commission has not
responsibility7 for the education of
Japanese children beyond the elementary grades. Such high school
instruction as is available is pro
vided chiefly7 through the gener
osity7 of missionary7 bodies. While
this friendly help is greatly appre
ciated, it is felt to be an intoler
able hardship that: the governmen
tal authorities have made practi
cally7 no provision for children of
high school grades. Some of these
children are taking correspondence
courses but the fees are so high as
to be beyond the reach of parents
of limited means.
I got off the bus at Niagara
Falls feeling like a honeymooner
who had forgotten his bride.
Across the river, facing me, was
the American Falls whose thun
dering waters formed a cloud of
mist. For a moment I thought the
grounds beneath me were tremb
ling with the noise, but it was my’
imagination.
To the right of the American
Falls
is
Goat
Island
which
separates the American Falls from
Niagara Falls.
I 'walked towards the tails, sown
the artificial gateway7 to the arti
ficial railing along the artificial
roadway.
I looked down at the river where,
ice was just beginning to break
up. In summer, a boat named
“Maid of the Mist” takes you right
up to the falls' and behind it.
I followed the road to the right
towards Niagara Falls, but before
I could get very’ close, I came to
the end of my walk at a place
where two soldiers stood on guard.
Along the road at certain inter
vals there are a number of bino
culars on stands. I put a dime in
the slot and stood waving the
thing at the falls trying to get it
focussed when it clicked and 1 saw

RECOALMEND EDUCATION
It is obvious then that the Nisei
must strive to improve himself in
more ways pertaining to his work.
He must develop new abilities, a
positive personality7 and be ready7
for opportunities that may7 come
his way. For this end we recom
mend highly' the educational facili
ties for workers in Hamilton ....
Perhaps more than this, it is
well to note the large number of
Nisei, both men and women taking
night school courses at the univer
sity and in the city7 schools. They
have
studied
typing,
English,
mathematics, economics, radio and
leadership training. It takes quite
an effort after a hard day’s work
to attend lectures and prepare for
examinations, but we are sure
their studies will not be wasted
and that some form of reward will
come for their efforts.
The school year will soon end
and these part-time Nisei students
can look back with satisfaction to
a year when progress on their part
was made. Next September, the
new year begins and we cannot
urge too strongly; that other Nisei
follow these examples. We urge
them to look into these classes, and
we are sure that whatever line
they7 may7 wish to pursue, there
will be a class just for them. It
is good to say, “I can do this.”
