Never in the history of the Na

President reviewed such a small
military' unit. The significance
was plain. It was more than a
tribute to the fighting record of
a regiment which showed such
outstanding faith in American de
mocracy. It was the Government's
way of making up in some measure for the horrible deal the Nisei
in the evacuation and of placits stamp of recognition on
the loyalty of the Niseis so that
all the world would know.
It was also used as a means of
emphasizing to Americans every

heart and not of race or creed. It
was, in effect, an object lesson in
patriotism to all America.
As we stood on the rim of the

Niseis were the object of insults,
suspicion, and hatred. Four years
ago the Niseis were marching off

national acclaim and gratitude.

on Aug. S, the total number of
evacuees to arrive at this centre
from British Columbia has reached

According to carpenters who are

"We can stand a

boys went through.”
Never in the history of the Na
tion's capital had busy- Constiturion Avenue been cleared for a
parade by 500 men. A ever had a
President reviewed such a small
military' unit. The significance
was plain. It was more than a
tribute to the fighting record of
a regiment which showed such
outstanding faith in American de
mocracy. It was the Government's
way of making up in some measure for the horrible deal the Nisei
in the evacuation and of placits stamp of recognition on
the loyalty of the Niseis so that
all the world would know.
It was also used as a means of
emphasizing to Americans every
where that Americanism is funda
mentally a matter of mind and
heart and not of race or creed. It
was, in effect, an object lesson in
patriotism to all America.
As we stood on the rim of the
Ellipse on that memorable Mon
day, our thoughts went back to
the early days of the war when'
Niseis were the object of insults,
suspicion, and hatred. Four years
ago the Niseis were marching off
to relocation centres in the west
ern wastelands. On July 15, 1946,
soldiers of Japanese ancestry
marched before the President of
the United States—the object of
national acclaim and gratitude.
Hearst Hostel to
House 15 Families
Ont.—With the arrival
of 108 more persons from Tashme
on Aug. S, the total number of
evacuees to arrive at this centre
from British Columbia has reached
a total of 770. Of this number SO
persons have moved to other lo
calities, leaving the present pop
ulation of the hostel at around
690 persons.
According to carpenters who are
preparing the hostel at Hearst.
Ont., that centre is capable of ac
commodating 15 or 16 families.
Several evacuees are already em
ployed at the Hearst hostel as
cooks and engineers.
Newcomers to northern Ontario
have to contend with one scourge
—mosquitoes and black flies. Al
though they are not bad at Neys
or near the lake, they are re
ported thick in other areas.

fairly vacant.
There was an element of dam
cer in this trip from kitchen to
^fs ient that added a little zest
io life. Circling overhead every
Etd hour were scores of black
binis called "shite hawks.” Shite
hawks are a constant part of the
Indian scenery like coolies and
beesars. We saw our first ones
as we steamed into Bombay har
bour. To us they looked like sea
gulls that hadn't had a bath for
a long time.
Shite hawks are as graceful as
seagulls in their swooping- and
gliding and look like kingsize
crows.
They are also always
hungry in the manner of every
one else in India.

noon between dinner and supper.
Servants bring the tea from the
kitchen to the mess or our respec
tive bashas as the case may be
at the time. All you had to do
was to reach out and drink it.
These servants, called “bear
ers,” usually provided valet ser
vice. The quality and quantity
of service differed with each lo
cality and each individual, but
there wasn't much you had to do
to keep the ball rolling. Except
to shell out at the end of the
month.
The typical day started off with
the bearer saying “Good morning,
sahib, time to get up, sahib . . .”
and sticking a cup of tea in your
face. This would be about 0630
or 0700 hours in the early aye em,
and was the substitute for the
western “reveille” that you hear
so much about.
You finally get up—never mind
when—and stumble towards mess
for breakfast. You have in the
meanwhile brushed up a bit so
you won't look too much of a
mess. In the mess, your bearer,
or the mess bearers, depending
on the system used, serve you.
AH you do is sit down and call
impatiently. Of course, all this
service was counter-balanced with
some awful food (at any meal)
but still it’s easy to see why the
Englishman in India, whether in
the Army or a civilian, begins to
think that he’s something pretty
good, when at home he probably
cringed every time the foreman
looked his way.
If your bearer is well-trained
and conscientious and you pay
him to his satisfaction, your bed
is made on your return. Your
quarters are swept out and put in
order. Previous to this he had
shined and polished your shoes
and the brass on your equipment
so that you looked all ready and
splendid when you headed for
breakfast.
For the rest of the day the
bearer remains close at hand.
Most likely he is squatting in the
shade of a building, trading gos
sip with sundry other members of
his trade. So that if the sahib
wants something and sahib quite
often does, all he has to do is
bellow “Bearer!” and in he comes
ready to go to work.
THIS
IS HOT STUFF
In Ceylon the food was pretty
special. And the top dish was
Singhalese curry. It should have
been good, considering how much
extra messing fees we had to pay
for it. This curry was served in
the pukka genuine manner.
First comes the steamed rice.
Shredded fresh cocoanut is
sprinkled on the hot rice. Then
the curry itself, which is a collec
tion of spices cooked up nice and
hot. Then the various vegetables
are presented. Curried potatoes,
tomatoes, peppers and chilies, all
in their separate order come up.
You take your choice. Last comes
the curried meat or fish. Mix
well and consume along with lots
of cold water to extinguish any
spontaneous combustion. We used
to sweat gallons while eating the
stuff and mmmm. it was good!
With all this being laid on, you
can just visualize the big array
of bearers parading back and
forth with the different dishes.
Just for mere NCO's too. You
can imagine what the brass got
