importance bexore it’s too late, in
regard to the recent appeal (Com­

ly7 presented by Miss Oyama.
Niseis from all parts of the
Dominion are doing their utmost
to overcome many7 serious prob­
lems such as: Rehabilitation, As­
similation, Minority7 Problems etc.,
but let’s include this important
factor. This is not only7 a postwar
problem, but also a problem for
many generations to come. In or­

strong f r o n t.
Although the
“Isseis”, our fathers and mothers
are giving us good support, they7
really7 did their share by building
our foothold through many years

remember that they7 overcame
many difficulties. Though their
handicaps were many, patience and
preservance through
all
these
years have built for the “Niseis”
a firmer foundation to fight dis­

carry on where they left off. Show
them a little gratitude—it’s the
least we can do—and build a concrete stand for our future generations. Let’s build an easy chair for

the Isseis and a firmer and more
solid foundation tor the generation
to come. Let us send our dimes to
Miss Oyama without fail to “Com­

Editor, The New Canadian:
?le discussion held by- the
—om -Anglican Synod of kootenav
last week, several of the delegates
spoke highly of the manner in
which the Japanese people had ac­
cepted the evacuation, and some
expressed grave doubts as to the
morality7 of the Custodian’s scale
of Japanese-owned property.
I was astonished to find in talk­
ing with different delegates how
much the Doukhobor question has
complicated the Japanese question.
The ordinary7 man is very- much in­
clined to judge the Japanese by
the Doukhobors. It is too bad, but
contact, and publicity7 where con­
tact is impossible, will improve it.
People do want to know about the
Japanese Canadians, and I am
swamped with requests to speak
in the south Kootenay7 area.
With every good wish to “The
New Canadian”.
