Will Appeal to Privy
Council—Sandwell
VANCOUVER, B.C. — The To
ronto Co-operative Committee on
Japanese Canadians willappeal to
the Privy Council if the supreme
court of Canada rules against
them in the current hearing on
Japanese deportation orders-incouncil, B. K. Sandwell of Toronto
said in an interview with local reporters On Jan. 25.
“If the court's decision declares
that the order applying to Japa
nese nationals is valid and re
jects the others applying to nat
uralized and native Canadians of
Japanese descent, the appeal will
be directed to the government for
a more humane approach rather
than on legal grounds,” the editor
of Toronto Saturday Night said.
“I know- the Japanese are very
much more a problem to British
Columbia than to -any other part
of Canada. However, 1 can’t quite
see them as a war- problem within
at least the next 50 years.
“Therefore, the anti-Japanese
attitude here is purely a racial
and economic one.
“We have no desire,” he con
tinued, “to further increase the
Japanese population. We are only
thinking of the claims on human
ity and citizenship of the existiiig
population in Canada.”
Japanese colonization centres in
Alberta as the old Knight Sugar
Company back in the days of 1908
brought ’scores of Japanese in to
assist in the beet fields. Families
raised by these Japanese have
been naturalized and received
their education in local schools
and are respected by all white
people of the district.’

Principle arguments advanced
by Mr.

1. War Measures Act gives right

2. Cabinet cannot deprive natnralized citizens of their British,

3. By including a, provision for

Of Relocees Returning to West Coast
■MONTEREY. Calif.—Faced with
the potentially explosive problem
of its returning Japanese, hund
reds of citizens in this area join
ed to find a solution. They were
not content to let things drift, nor
were they satisfied with pious
platitudes about racial tolerance.
Instead, they were willing to pro
vide leadership in the direction of
a happy solution. They were will
ing to stand up and be counted
publicly.
Before Pearl Harbor, about 3,000
Nisei and Issei lived in the area
comprising Monterey and Santa
Cruz Counties. One third of them
are back. Others are returning
steadily. So far, there has been
no major incident marring their
return.
QUIET WORK PAYS OFF
A labor shortage has helped.
But for the most part the solution
has been achieved through the
quiet, diligent efforts of cool-head
ed residents who believe— and
act—in “the democratic way of
life.”
In June, 1944, the Inter-racial
Council of Monterey Peninsula
was formed. There were no Jap
anese on the West Coast at that
time.
SPEAKERS SCHEDULED
One of the Council's first acts
toward a solution of the problem
of the returning Japanese was to
bring Carey McWilliams to town
to speak. He is the author of
numerous books and articles advo
cating fair treatment of racial
minority groups. Later, the Coun
cil brought in American soldiers
—veterans of Europe and the Paci
fic—who told of the heroism of
G.I.’s of Japanese ancestry.
More and more, the people of
the Monterey area are listening to
these stories of gallantry.
But last April, things were a
little different. One day the
people of the peninsula opened
their afternoon paper, the Monte
rey Herald, to see a big display
ad headed, “Organization to Dis
courage Return of Japanese to the
Pacific Coast.”
The advertisement said its or
ganization—the “Monterey Bay
Council on Japanese Relation”—
had been incorporated under the
laws of California.
By a strange co-incident, along
side this ad dedicated to trying
to keep the Japanese out of the
West Coast area, another display
ad appeard. It was a “Prayer for
Peace,” paid for by the Pacific Gas
and Electric Company, which sup
plies utilities all along the coast.
The prayer read in part, “Lord,
make me an instrument of thy
peace. Where there is hatred, let
me sow love.”

OPPOSITION COLLAPSES
For a time, in the SalinasWatsonville area, Japanese farm
ers found it difficult or impossible
to buy seed, farm equipment, or
to have oil delivered. But ibis
move . . . has collapsed.
The fish canneries of Monterey
say they could have used as many
as 500 Japanese. At the present
time they have 150. They have
been welcomed back as good
workers.
Some of the returnees have gone
back on the fishing boats, where
they are getting along well with
the Italian fishermen. Many have
secured jobs similar to those they
held before the war—as domestics,
storekeepers, bellboys and gar
deners.
In Salinas, the Bataan Mothers'
Club—women whose sons were
casualties on Bataan—have gone
on record as opposing discrimina
tion. Luncheon clubs in the vari
ous towns in the Monterey area
have heard speakers such as those
sponsored by the Interracial Coun
cil.
Slowly but surely the problem
is being solved—in the democra

MISERABLE SIGHTS
J||Beggars are another nevergotten part, of the Indian urban
^enery. Ancient twisted crones
in a few filthy rags plead in
®oken mumbles and outstretch
jgpv-like hands. This helps to dis^ell any lingering notions that
have left regarding the
glamour of the exotic and mysteriEast.
Lepers, syphilletic
^iipples, the blind and the maimyoung mothers nursing monthI infants; all are members of
- layered miserable hordes that

On my recent arrival to
town I naturally found myself
stalking down the big road. After
some time in India, dodging panhandlers and peddlars of tinny
cigarette cases gets to be second
nature. So I was swerving and
sidestepping while emitting an oc
casional “Jao!” out of the side of
my mouth.
“Jao” is Hindustani for “go” and
is one of the first words that
troops learn in India. It is most
effective when the speaker looks
as if he means it. I use my version of a malignant stare with it.
Recently it has been raking effect.
STUNG BY JUNIOR
Suddenly I noticed a diminu
tive yoTuigster at my elbow, urging, “Give you dam’ : rood shine,
sarjint, real good job . . . very
cheap, sahib, . . . hey, okay? . . .
c’mon . . .”
He was a persistent little cuss,
but a cute one. Bia eyes in a
small bony face, looking like an
attractive baby monkey. So after
a block and a half of his tagging
along, and those Chowringhee
blocks are long, I halted and
him the go-ahead nod.
Aly shoes were badly in need
of a -shine, and then I had some
little time before the 5.45 show
at the Globe.
Junior, as I chistened him in the
first couple of minutes, was a
talkative ’’Ut .fighter. His English y--,—(tt—c ^FM if totally lacking inhibition. So like the barhers at home he chattered away
;
on the. topics of the day as he
brushed and polished.
“Hey, you a Ca-nye-Bian s ar
jint, master?” looking- at my
shoulder flashes.
“No, not Ca-nye-Bian, Canadian,” I amend.
This leads to quite a discussion and lot of illustration with
both of us waving our arms around
in the best Italian tradition.
Finally he gets it.
He leans back to survey his
handiwork on the toe of my right
shoe with a professional air and
profoundly informs the several
members of his union who have
gathered around that his present
customer is a “Ca-nye-B . .
Ca-nye-Dian.”
UNION TAKES OVER
He then tells me that he is ten
years old and that he wouldn’t
mind having a cigarette. I advance
the argument that a “chota-walla”
(“small man,” i.e. boy) like him
shouldn’t smoke. This argument
is away over his head since he’s
probably been smoking evei’ since
he was weaned.
A lounging member of his union
about the same age thoughtfully
scratches his dusky ear with a
black bootbrush and makes a
statement in B e n g a 1 i with
“Cheeno” in it.
No, I’m not Chinese, I say.
“Of course not, he’s a Ca-nye-erer-Dian,” Junior retorts disdain
fully. At least I gathered so—my
knowledge of Bengali is very limit
ed.
(Bengali is the language
spoken in the province of Bengal
of which Cal is the central city.
But Hindustani or Urdu is the
most universally understood langu
age of the six or so main langu
ages of India. Boy, are you con
fused!)

a Gurkha knife peddlar and
Indian Army wallas, that 1 am
Japanese.
This statement is met. with utter
disbelief by all except Junior. He
accepts the statement without
question probably with the magni
ficent sum that he hopes to tap
me for in his mind, But the members of the union mutter under
their breaths and slink away.
His business instincts have
started nudging him again and as
he starts his final polishing, he
starts to relate a somewhat vague
tale about a pal of his who got
one rupee and eight annas from
an officer the week before. Now
one rupee eight is nearly half a
dollar in Canadian money. "While
the regular policy of our gang
when we were in Cal before was
to pay two annas or four cents
per shine. Junior figures there’s
nothing like aiming high. Or may
be it’s my kind face. It’s got rhe
into trouble before.
So I reply that as he can plain
ly see I am not an officer. What’s
more I am a very poor man and
naturally can’t hope to pay as
much as an officer can.
But, Junior objects, sahib is a
sarjint, sarjints got lots of paisa.
I'll bet you’ve got twenty-five
rupees in your pocket.
As a matter of fact I did have
twenty-five rupees which is a little
more than eight bucks so he had
me there.
So, the final flourish, with Junior
insisting that I give him at least
one rupee for his dam’ fine job.
It has been a very enjoyable half
hour so I figure it has been worth
it and give him a half-rupee piece
or eight annas.
This apparently overwhelms him
and as the members of the union,
•who have come slinking back to
watch the financial end of it, look
at me poker-faced and think what
a sucker, Junior promises to give
me a free shine on the morrow.
I resume my stalk down Chowringhee, my black oxfords gleaming,
while he names the exact times
of his shifts and drags out a
promise from me that I will be
there the next day maybe.
WONDERFUL PLACE
Junior has accosted me with a
“Hello, Japanese Ca-nye-Dian” and
a toothy grin several times since
and I pay him by the usual union
rates now. He always has the
latest tid-bits about the doings of
his pals and the encounters with
AI.P.’s who demand rake-offs, et
cetera.
Funny to think that the first
Indian I’ve got to know is a tenyear-old dead-end kid who has
never gone to school. His father
and mother probably work as
coolies and the whole family
huddle miserably in thin tattered
blankets on the pavements and
the open doorways of the Big City
when bedtime comes around, Oh,
they have lots of company; rare
it is that you can find an unoccu
pied doorway.
Yup, India is a wonderful place.

1 can recall, though, one it tauce
of discrimination (may
well
call it this) which 1 experienced of
the most
kind. It happened one night that yours truly
and a friend while on one of our
nocturnal ambles took the notion
of patronizing a delicatessen which
stood conveniently on the way. As
we entered, the patron emerged
from the back room and stood
scowling at. the entrance, mutter
ing attdiblv what sounded like
•Japs!
He then stalked towards
us (we stood near the door) and
planted himself a few yards from
us wordlessly. Mv friend asked
cautiously if he had any candy.
To this. Benny (for that was his
his Chinese accent would permit:
“No candy for you . . . get out!
Get out!” Feinting dramatically
to the door at the same time.
Realizing now the aspect of the
situation, I took an impulsive step
towards the Chinese (who had a
frail carriage most provoking to
my fiery temper) and rattled off
a chain of abusive words, not the
least hoping that he would be fool
enough to give me an opportunity
to “poke him one.” Benny and I
now stood toe to toe (I, giving
him five words for his one) almost
at blows. I felt the blood rush
ing to my temple and my biceps
flexing nervously. But I felt someone tugging me at the elbow. Aly
friend, who had contrived some
how to keep calm, was wisely
urging me to relinquish, which I
did reluctantly enough. With a
few parting words, we left Benny
and directed our steps homeward
with Benny’s words still ringing
in our ears.
Quite naturally, once home we

And naturally two such persons
wouldn’t wear the same shades,
Well, that was sound. I read on,
becoming more convinced as I
went along. Dorothy Gray knew
what she was talking about.
Picking up another pamphlet.
I read over the Marvellous method
which urged me to use the color
of mj- eyes as a guide. Now, that
wasn’t what Dorothy Gray had
said. Gosh, which was correct?
Well—maybe these shades were
best with my eyes. But what was
this?—Alax Factor said to use the
hair for guidance. I’m a brunette,
so I'd use these shades—but here
was another.
An Elizabeth Arden pamphlet.
This said one's clothes should in

wear a blue-toned lipstick with a
green outfit—you had to choose
your make-up to match your cos
tume. I agreed whole-heartedly,
remembering my annoyance when
my favorite lipstick clashed with
my pet red sweater.
But I was getting nowhere.
Slightly confused and desperate,
I pounced on Helena Rubinstein’s
pamphlet. She advocated yet an
other system! One’s face powder
should match one’s complexion.
Eye make-up should be selected
according to the eyes. And lip
stick and rouge should harmonize
with one’s ensemble.
Now this was a fine state of
affairs! Which method was the
best?—I floundered about in in
decision. Should I do this?—or
that?—
Piffle! I slammed the magazine
shut and dumped the pamphlets
into the waste paper basket. A
change? Yes, but I’d use my own
system. • So I bought a new lip

I pounced on Helena Rubinstein’s
pamphlet. She advocated yet an
other system! One’s face powder
should match one’s complexion.
Eye make-up should be selected
according to the eyes. And lip
stick and rouge should harmonize
with one’s ensemble.
Now this was a fine state of
affairs! Which method was the
best?—I floundered about in in
decision. Should I do this?—or
that?—
Piffle! I slammed the magazine
shut and dumped the pamphlets
into the waste paper basket. A
change? Yes, but I’d use my own
system. • So I bought a new lip
stick in the “most tempting new,
color since Eve winked at Adam'S
—Fatal Apple. Yesterday I asked,
a certain columnist, “Notice some
thing different?”

4. There is no longer emergency
waarranting such drastic action as
contemplated in the orders-incouncil. Even if the parliament
does not think the emergency has
ended, in this case the court could
and should decide otherwise.
•5. The orders-in-council deprives
the deportees of habeas-corpus
protection by specifying they are
in "legal custody," This is in conflict with an implication to the
contrary contained in another sec
tion of the War Measures Act.
6. Provisions in the orders-incouncil are too vague and not en
forceable.
7. The definition "persons of

It was argued further that the

that if principle parts of the or
