Raise Funds, Secure

Affidavits, Says Nisei

Leader in Toronto
TORONTO. Ont.—Unless finan­
cial aid and unstinting co-opera­
tion of the evacuees, especially
those back in B.C., are forthcom­
ing at once, the efforts of Toronto
and Vancouver Committees to get
a fair consideration for people
threatened with deportation will
be seriously hampered. Kinzie
Tanaka, president of the Japanese
Canadian Committee for Democ­
racy. told The New Canadian re­
porter this week.
Mr. Tanaka stated that the Co­
operative Committee for Japanese
Canadians in Toronto and the
Consultative Council in Vancouver
were trying- to raise funds to start
necessary legal steps to stop the
indiscrimination deportation pro­
ceedings contemplated by . the gov­
ernment.

“Those people in Tashme and
Demon Creek and Slocan who are
worried about the business now
should, get down to earth and be
practical about the whole thing."
Ite said.
Mr. Tanaka believes definite
steps should be taken by the evac­
uees and it should be done immedi­
ately :

(T) They should secure affi­
davits to reveal the actual reasons
why they signed repatriation docu­
ments: no one will believe they
signed unwillingly and under pres­
sure unless there are proofs to
back it up.

(2) They should compile a list
of all people who signed these
documents and later asked to have
them cancelled.
(3) They should start raising
funds immediately since that need
is clear]}- foreseen if the fight is
io be carried on in the courts.

WINNIPEG. Man.— More than
twenty evacuees in Whitenumth
who applied for repatriation sev­
eral months ago before the R.C.
M.P.. have packed up and left for
British Columbia., where Toy will
await repatriation in Lemon Creek
and Tashme repatriation camps.
Two or three more families have
made applications for such t.ran>fers with the Japanese Division
representative in Winnipeg, and
they will be moved as soon as
housing can be provided for them
in British Columbia.
So far. these movements are
voluntary, and it is not known
what will be done with the several
hundred other “repatriates" in
Manitoba, some of whom have ask­
ed for cancellation of repatriation
requests.
It is believed the Department
of Labor will await the passage of
the National Emergency Powers
Bill before proceeding with depor­
tation arrangements.
The families which left for B.C.
have been provided with free
transportation, but they were re­
quired to pay for their freight,
and baggage in excess of the .150
lbs. per person ( 75 lbs. for child i
allowed by the tickets.

442nd Coming Home
LEGHORN, Italy—A p p r o x i m a t e ly 1.300 combat veterans of the
442nd (Japanese American) Regi­
mental Combat Team, all eligible
for dischaige under the point sys­
tem. are now enroute back to the
United States after “sweating out"
a redeployment "snafu" for sev­
eral months, it was reported by
the Pacific Citizen last week.
More than SOO men of the 442nd,
members of the original combat
team which came overseas in May,
1944. and veterans of the RomeArno. Po Valley, the Apennines
and Rhineland campaigns, left
here on October 19 and 2u for
Naples on the first stage of re­
deployment.

In Los Angeles

Seeks Writ of Habeas Corpus
In Attempt to Prevent Deportation
LOS ANGELES. Calif. — The
first test case of an American
citizen of Japanese ancestry who
seeks to invalidate proceedings

war was filed in Federal District
court by Mrs. Rumiko Tamura,
housewife and resident of the
Manranar relocation centre.
Mrs. Tamura seeks a writ of

To Review Cases
LOS ANGELES. Calif.—A threcman committee has been appoint­
ed by the U.S. Attorney General
Clark to review the
Niseis who renounced their U.S.
citizenship during the war and
are held in interment. The committee will determine in each case
whether to approve or disapprove

Appointed to the committee

standing and duress."

KASLO, BC. — AU men
who were employed by the
Japanese Division.. (Dept, of
Labor') in this centre have
been laid off. The announcement
was made by T. B. Pickersgill.
Commissioner for Japanese Place­
ment on Nov. 6.
It is believed less than ten men
will be affected by this order. All
are married.
It is not thought
likely that these men will be
allowed to seek employment in
British Columbia, since they are
not repatriates, and the policy is
to move them east of the Rockies.
Kaslo was designated a redis­
tribution centre several months
ago, to which non-repatriates were
brought
from
various
other
centres to await opportunities for
relocation in eastern Canada. The
evacuee population of this centre
is down to about 150.

Kelowna Evacuation

Almost Completed
KELOWNA. B.C.—The evacua­
tion of over 60 persons under
Labor Department's order to leave
Kelowna district by November .15
is almost completed.
All Canadian-born and natural­
ized evacuees are required to
move move east of the Rockies,
exceptions being made only in
case of sicknesses.

Five families have been moved
to Now Denver.
Most of the
■others have moved east willingly.
Those not provided with jolts are
proceeding to Summerville. Ontaiio. where food and shelter wid
be supplied them until jobs can
be found.

It is expected that evacuation
from Vernon district will be de­
layed until next spring. Agree­
ments between the Department -of
Labor and local authorities calls
for the removal of evacuees with­
in six months after the end of war.
The evacuation orders do not
include Japanese who lived in
these districts prior to Pearl Har­
bor.

Employment Situation Tightens
In Hamilton as Veterans Return;
Some Niseis Reported Unemployed
HAMILTON. Om, — The
employment s i i u a t i o n is
tightening up in this city
wit’n discharged servicemen
swelling the ranks of she job-seek­
ers
every week.
Unemployed
workers number over l,mh\ ami
tb.e figure is increasing.
Seven or eight Japanese Cana­
dians are without jobs, it is reperted. ami further movement into
the city of evacuees from B.U.
has been suspended.
A letter received by the SophyEd Club from G. 1-.'. Trueman, Jananese Placement Officer in To­
ronto. admonished the Niseis to
slick at their present jobs, and
not to hunt around for higher paid
jobs as they have doin' in the past.
As reported in The New Uaimdian last week, tin' presence of
Japanese workers has been poiniout as ;t menace to tin' wage
smiclurc by the local Painters'
Union.

Situation may worsen, inn it is
not expected to improve in the
next six months; local industries
were heavily engaged in war work
ami their operations have been
curtailed.

kind in the Dominion, was slated
to be moved this week from tin*

40 are Japanese Canadians, will

Army's old ack-ack camp at Ambkside. in West Vancaver, the
report stated.

Mayor Cornett Will Retire

Decision to move the school was
made when it was determined
that space occupied by the langu­
age classes in army lodgings at
Technical School were inquired
for regular school students.

VANCOUVER. B.C. — M a y o r
Cornett told the City Council on
Nov. 13 he will retire from office
when he completes his term nt
tb.e em! of 1946. according to the
Vancouver Province report.

The Japaneso school students,

VANCOUVER. B.C. -A U.B.C.
faculty

the
loyalty of Japanese Canadians ami
said “the idea of sending them to
Japan is a levelling proposition,"
Ms? week.
"I am positive the Nisei (Jap­
anese Canadians), certainly tho.w

nave fired on Japanese invading
British Columbia," Prof. George
Sedgewick told a meeting of lite
Student Christian Movement on
November 7.
“I have had many Nisei in my
classes. I have never seen any
evidence that they were disloyal."
Dr. Sedgewick attacked the ex­
pulsion of Japanese Canadians
from the Pacific Coast defense
area as a measure taken more

In cause of lacial prejudice than
of dofense necessity.
“H is silly to say Japanese Cana
dians gathered around strategic
■neas." he contended.
"5’abir:illy. they had to live
near the fishboats, and their gar­
dens pad to he near a ready mar­
ket."
Their removal from the Coast
became a necessity because ‘'there
would have almost certainly been
social outbnists if they had not
been removed."
He urged against intermarriage
because ot social difficulties due
to race prejudice.
“No government would ever be
elected in B.C. that favored com­
plete racial equality." he conclud­
ed.

Flash I
Legal Action Needed
OTTAWA
Opinion has been
expressed by informed quarters
here that legal steps must be
taken immediately if forcible ex­
patriation of Japanese Canadians
is to be stopped.

Attention was called to the Win­
nipeg Eree Press editorial ireprinted in The New Canadian last
week 1 which suggested Canadianborn Japanese should seek a writ,
of habeas corpus or apply to the
Supreme Court for a declaration
that the repatriation document,
they signed is not authorized by
law.

A delegation should he formed
to meet the Prime Minister im­
mediately on his return, confront­
ing him with his statement on
Japanese policy made lust August,
the Ottawa source believes.

15 Would Legalize
Wholesale Deportation

Deportation by Order-in-Council
By George T. Ta mail i, B.A., LL.B., LL.M.
WITH THE END of the war
'’ with Japan, there has re­
appeared with increased intensity
in certain sections of the British
Columbia press and public vocifer­
ous demands for “repatriation” of
persons of Japanese racial origin.
This movement on the part of B.C.
racialists was anticipated, but
what was less expected was that,
apparently, Ottawa should also fall
victim to the plague which ger­
minated in the minds of the B.C.
race-baiters, whose admitted aim
is to persecute other racial min­
orities after dealing with the Jap­
anese.

of peace, the courts may- well
scrutinize any executive measure
in order to ascertain whether it
may’ properly be called a war
measure exerciseable by’ the Gov­
ernor-in-Council or even in certain
constitutional matters by the Par­
liament at Ottawa.
TT MUST BE EMPHASIZED, of
1 course, that a great 'many or­
ders and regulations have been
passed by’ the Governor-in-Council
during the late war, and that the
Japanese question has been only’
one of a number of measures
taken, the total of which cover at
least a dozen volumes. Of the
many’ other measures—to mention
only’ three— are the prices and
wages control orders, and the
selective service regulations.
There has been a great deal of
protest against this ‘‘Government
by’ Order-in-Council, and on the
return of peace, the Government
was faced with the prospect of
possible legal action to contest
the validity’ of many’ of its war­
time orders — notably’ the three
above-mentioned measures. In or­
der to circumvent any such legal
action, the Government has asked
Parliament, in the form of a pro­
posed National Emergency Pow­
ers Act, to extend the Executive

authority of the proposed Act are
matters of entry’ into Canada, ex­
clusion and deportation, and revo­
cation of nationality. The' result
then is htat the Government bv
order-in-council may’ attempt to
over-ride the provisions of the
present Immigration" Act, the Nat­
uralization Act, and the newly’
proposed . Canadian
Citizenship
Bill.
Canadians, in contrast to their
American cousins, are a notorious­
ly politically complacent people;
but if the above facts were gen­
erally known to them, it is doubt­
ful whether Parliament would be
allowed to pass this proposed
Emergency’ Powers Act without
some safeguard of their rights.
The Immigration Act, as well as
the Naturalization Act contain
ample provisions dealing with de­
portation and revocation of na­
tionality on grounds of disloyalty’
as proven by a properly constitut­
ed tribunal. If the Government
seeks to use the proposed National
Emergency’ Powers Act to circum­
vent the provisions of the Immi­
gration Act and the Naturalization
Act, it would be taking a step
precedent in Canadian constitu­
tional law.

Opposition is growing to clause 3, subsection (g) in the
ational Emergency Powers Bill which will give the govnment authority, through order-in-councils, to deport and
revoke nationality.
The insertion of this clause is clearly an attempt by the
ivernment to legalize the wholesale deportation of Japanese WHAT HAS CANADIAN LAW

and revocation of nationality by
an express proviso in the Act stat­
ing either that the provisions of
the Act shall not be construed to
enable the Governor-in-Council to
implement any measure contrary
to the Immigration Act or the
Naturalization Act. or that no per­
son shall be deported or have his
nationality revoked under the said
Act unless he has been proved
disloyal by a competent tribunal
where he is given an opportunity

satisfactory compromise is that
the Government ought to be asked to give a. formal statement of
policy declaring that no person
will be deported from Canada or
be in danger of having his nation­

of the proposed National Emer­
