OTTAWA—Kunio Hidaka, exe
cutive secretary of the Citizenship
Defence Committee in Toronto,
was one of the speakers at a
meeting of the Ottawa Civil Liber
ties Association on July7 31, ac
cording to the Ottawa Journal.
The subject under discussion was
the treatment of Canadians of
Japanese ancestry .
Mrs. Grace Maclnnis, former
M.L.A., British Columbia, spoke
of legislations enacted’ during the
war and still in force whereby
Japanese Canadians were depriv
ed of certain rights as citizens of
the Dominion. She explained the
various orders and regulations
and told of their life in British
Columbia camps.
The president, Wilfrid Eggles
ton, acted as chairman.
The meeting resolved unanim
ously- “to set up a citizens’ com
mittee to help in placing Japanese
Canadians in work in the Ottawa
district, and assimilating them
into the community; to urge the
Dominion Government to take
immediate steps to remove legal
restrictions from Japanese Canadians and to restore their property rights.”
The first resolution i:s to be
initiated by the council of the
Ottawa Civil Liberties Association.

Why Except Japanese
Women Asks Churchill
LONDON — Winston Churchill
asked in the House of Commons
last week why Japanese women
were excepted from the ruling
whereby British soldiers may’
marry alien women, according to
Reuters.
Mr. Churchill warned against
discrimination between east and
west. War Secretary Lawson said
the exception had been made be
cause he had received no repre
sentations to allow marriage with
Japanese women.
American GI’s are not forbid
den
from marrying Japanese
women, but Japanese wives are
prevented entry into the United
States by7 immigration laws.

In the latter game. Kelowna

Perhaps we want nothing better

again. Who knows hut that the
next time will be made easier for

lowed by the approval of an iden
tical House bill, H.K.6780. by the
House Judiciary Committee, thus
clearing the way for its considera
tion in the House before adjourn
ment.
Majority House sentiment was
reported in favor of the bill until
a few West Coast congressmen
expressed their opposition to the
legislation.
Rep. Engle charged that the
bill makes no distinction between
the “loyal Japanese” and those
who renounced their citizenship
while confined in a relocation
centre.

He pointed out that thousands
of servicemen who enlisted op
were drafted into service had
to dispose of their homes, auto
mobiles and other properties,
but that no agency had been set
up to reimburse them for finan
cial losses they may have suf
fered.
Since the House was on record
to adjourn soon, all bills coming
up at this time require unanimous
consent of all representatives
present in order to pass, unless
the rules are suspended.
If the bill is not passed this
session, it must be reintronucea
when Congress meets again next
January.

By R.S.
PICTURE BUTTE. Alta. — Er
rors and failure to hit. at crucial
moments of the game proved dis
astrous to Picture Butte Chinooks
Aug. 4. when they dropped a game
to the visiting team. Coaldale

ing and slow in progressing, but
came to life in the eighth inning
when Cubs let loose with a sud
den spurt to push across six runs.
K. Moriyama hit a triple in the
eighth inning but Chinooks failed
to bring him in for a much-needed
run.
Monk Nakama was on the
mound for Cubs, and S. Ono and
K. Moriyama for Chinooks.

Kelowna Leading in OK Finals
SUMMERLAND, B.C. — The
Kelowna-Summerland bid for the
Okanagan Valley Baseball Cham
pionship tightened as Kelowna
upset Hinodes 9-6, on July 21, in
the second game of the series and
then proceeded to swamp them
19-S the following week. The suc
cessive wins thus gave Kelowna
two games to Summerland’s one.
and placed them one ahead in the
best-of-five series.
In the latter game. Kelowna
took an early lead, which they
never relinquished for the entire
game. George Uzawa, manager of
the losing team, used four pitchers
in a vain effort to stem the on
slaught of Kelowna. On the
other hand. Kelowna’s Shige Ka
wahara had but few worries as
his mates cruised along with a
comfortable lead.
Suey Koga
pitched most of the route for the
Northerners with Shige Kawa
hara relieving him near the end
of the game.

By R.S.
DIAMOND CITY, Alta. — Lag
ging behind Iron Springs till late
in the game, Picture Butte Chin
ooks battered in five runs in the
7th inning and one in the Sth to
nose out their opponents 11-10 in
an uncomfortably close game
played at Picture Butte grounds
on July 2S.
Solid hitters for Iron Springs
were T. Ezaki with his double,
and N. Abe and C. Isogai with a
triple each. T. Hattori and K.
Moriyama led the sluggers for Pic
ture Butte, the latter banging out
4 hits out of 5 times at bat.
A. Oshiro pitched for Iron
Springs throughout the game. S.
Ono and K. Moriyama were on
the mound for the opposing team.

We are not free.
Perhaps we have better homes
now. perhaps we have new treas
ures. perhaps we don’t want to go
back to B.C. anyway, and perhaps'
we don’t care much one way or
another how an election goes.
Perhaps we want nothing better
than to forget the raw wounds of
yesterday, to cover the scar with
delusions of security, but what
was once taken away can be taken
again. Who knows hut that the
next time will be made easier for
the plunderers because we shrug
ged and said: Shikata ga nai.
If you have fought for freedom
in your small way. and you cherish
its dream still, then cherish that
dream dearly, for you will be
called upon one of these days to
confirm your faith. Interpret free
dom to your children so that they
will not be frightened of it some
day when they shall be free.
Meanwhile,
remember
who fought for you.

"Bill Passes"
(Continued from page D
mended favorable action on the
measure on July 24. This was fol
lowed by the approval of an iden
tical House bill, H.K.6780. by the
House Judiciary Committee, thus
clearing the way for its considera
tion in the House before adjourn
ment.
Majority House sentiment was
reported in favor of the bill until
a few West Coast congressmen
expressed their opposition to the
legislation.
Rep. Engle charged that the
bill makes no distinction between
the “loyal Japanese” and those
who renounced their citizenship
while confined in a relocation
centre.
■
He pointed out that thousands
of servicemen who enlisted op
were drafted into service had
to dispose of their homes, auto
mobiles and other properties,
but that no agency had been set
up to reimburse them for finan
cial losses they may have suf
fered.
Since the House was on record
to adjourn soon, all bills coming
up at this time require unanimous
consent of all representatives
present in order to pass, unless
the rules are suspended.
If the bill is not passed this
session, it must be reintronucea
when Congress meets again next
January.
