Emergency Powers
Of some importance to Japanese
the news from Ot
Canadians
tawa that the Emergency ^Tansitional Powers Act of 1945 will ex
pire automatically on March 31.
The act may expire sooner since
it is provided that the act will be
terminated 60 days after, the start
of the next session (expected in
January), but not later than March
31. The last provision was tacked
on by an amendment moved by
the Progressive Conservative lead
er, John Bracken.
It is accepted that some controls
introduced during the war, such
as those over price, wage, market
ing. etc., must be continued indefi
nitely if Canada is to avoid infla
tion and disrupted economy, and
special legislations to achieve that
end are being contemplated. But
until these legislations can be in
troduced at the next session, the
government needs the authoriza
tion under the Emergency Powers
Act.
Tae Emergency Powers Act is
important to evacuees because the
gen eminent maintains its present
controls over movements, place of
re.sxueuce. etc., under the authorit'■ oi the act,
:
An attempt has been made and
may be made again by British
Columbia M.P.'s to maintain some
of these controls, viz., exclusion
from the Wes t Coast, permanent
ly under a special legislation.
Tnis particular attempt is not
likely to succeed, but there is still
a possibility that the government
ma; wisn to introduce some legisLiion which will provide a loop
hole for continuing for some time
the controls over Japanese Cana
dians. The situation bears close
hatching.

VERNON. B.C.—Mary Omoto, a
Nisei who was formerly school
teacher at the New Denver Or
chard school, accompanied her
mother to Japan on the repatria
tion ship S. S. Marine Angle, on
May 31. But Mary's sister. Sue.
and father decided to remain in
Canada.
After a month and a half in
Japan, Mary wrote to her sister:
“The only thing I can suggest to
you now is to stay in Canada.”
The letter stated that she is
considered as having given up
her Canadian citizenship, and
that sh,e will not be allowed to
return to Canada.
“If there is a chance of mailing
some goods such as sugar, salt,
candy, wool, anything, do so,” the
letter requested.
Mary is working in Osaka and
earning 1,350 yen per month as a
better-paid typist, But it costs
her 900 yen a month for living
expenses.^ She applied for. but
could not get a job with the Occu
pation army, because she is con
sidered as having lost her Cana
dian citizenship.
With Mary in Japan is her
brother, Minoru Omoto, a gradu
ate of the Vancouver Technical
High School, who went to Japan
eight years ago. His letter also
adyis.e.d sister Sue and her father
to remain in Canada. Minoru, now
married, wrote: “Goods are short,
and prices terrifically high. If at
all possible, please send anything
sweet . . . and a baby carriage.”

Govt. Refuses Two
Applications For
Fishing License
OTTAWA—Two persons of Jap

applications to the government
for fishing licenses to operate in
British Columbia waters, but the
government is not considering
granting these applications.
The information was tabled in
the House of Commons. August 21,

by Tom Reid (Liberal. New West

Hostel Residents Must Move
To Northern Ontario Camps
TRANSCONA HOSTEL, Man.— Huies there
minute change in official plans, the Transcona hostel is
scheduled to close at the end of September after
three-months of existence.
The 184 present residents of the hostel have been in-
formed by the Japanese Division
official, C. B. Campbell, that they
will have to be moved to hostels
at Neys or Angler in northern
Ontario unless they can find place
ment or housing in the next few
weeks.
Difficulties
heating the
building is understood to be the
principle reason for the closure.
Two plans for heating were
originally considered. One was to
get steam from the power plant
of the now idle cordite plant (De
fence Industries Ltd.) This plan
was given up in favor of erecting
a smaller power plant which could
also provide laundry facilities. But
it is understood that the Japanese
Division has run into difficulties
on this second plan.
Meanwhile the return to the
first plan of getting heat from the
D.l.L. power plant has been com
plicated by the fact that the War
Assets has already gone ahead
with the dismantling of the plant.
The installation of any heating
system now is expected to take
considerable tinie as well as large
financial outlay.

Two B.C. Niseis Win Awards
In Job Study Competition
KASLO, B.C. — Grace Yamaguchi, student at Kaslo High
School, was one of the top prizewinners in the B.C. Products Job
Study Competition held among
high school students of British
Columbia. Hundreds of job studies
were produced by students, of
which the principals submitted
the best three entries from each
school.
Grace won the first prize of
$75 in Area 13, which takes in
Nelson, Trail and Grand Forks
area, according to the Nelson
N ews.
Announcement of the awards

to move to other hostels, and an
anxious
for accommodations is going on every day.
Only a small number of families
have moved out of the hostel since
the first group of evacuees
rived here on July 11.
According to the evacuees now
in the hostel, a large part of them
are neither suitable nor have the
inclination to do bush work in
Northern Ontario, Many of them
are experienced carpenters a n d
skilled tradesmen for whom jobs
are plentiful in Winnipeg and
neighboring distr lets. The snag
is the housing shortage; and with
the limited time now left, before
the scheduled closure, it does not
seem likely that many of them
will be able to remain in Mani

Some, families may move out to
farm positions, but even these jobs
are not so plentiful as they were
in the spring.

It s Up To The Chinese Canadians
One of the chief concerns of Japanese Canadians before
the war was the problem of acquiring franchise in British
Columbia.
British Columbia was the only province in Canada to deny
the right of franchise to a section of Canadian citizens; and
the measure enacted in 1902 to disfranchise all British sub
jects of Asiatic origin still stands.
The lack of franchise means that the Asiatics in British
Columbia are politically defenceless; they remain vulnerable
to all sorts of discriminatory legislations which can be passed
whenever there is sufficient agitation from economic groups
who feel themselves being “crowded out” by the Orientals.
The disqualification extends its influence beyond directly
political spheres. Exclusion from the voters’ list has been
made the basis of excluding Asiatics from the professions
of law and pharmacy by the rules of the Law Society and
the pharmacy by-laws. Based on the same principle, British
Columbia Asiatics were, and are, open to other discrimina
tory measures which narrow their already limited fields of
economic activity.
NEW
ing decisions which will bring
drastic changes to his life, and
possibly great suffering.
The government has not clari
fied what kind of arrangement has
been made for Matano in Japan:
he is known to have no relative
in Canada and it is not known if
he has any in Japan. We would
like to know if the government
of Canada is now disclaiming any
responsibility for a man who at
one time had fought for her be
cause he asks to be sent to Japan
when not in his right mind.
LOOKING UP...
by F.A.M.
Thoughts of a Nisei Traveller
By “Geraldine”
The Transcontinental Limited's
beam peered cautiously around
the bend then turned to glare
boldly on little Inkitsaph fiagstopas No. 2 approached precisely on
time. While the train was yet a
quarter mile away the little green
and white signal flag arc-ed fran
tically through the beam.
Two
units of hissing, clanking loco
motive equipment approached and
rolled by with brakes groaning
under the strain of deceleration.
A couple of mail-and-baggage cars
slid by. A. jerking stop brought a
coach before me. I ’ clambered
aboard, almost breaking my shins
in doing so, and found a vacant
seat.
I felt uneasy at leaving home,
not being quite able to convince
myself that I was doing right.
I gazed sadly out the window but
it was still midnight, and I could
see nothing but my own poor re
flection. I thought of mother and
father, and of gentle, playful
“Poopsy.” How sincere, loving,
unaffected “Poopsy” was. The re
membrance of her soft warmth,
and her curly black hair which I
■would never embrace again, de
pressed me to tears. How she
loved to muzzle my cheek and lick
my nose, and to bark at my' com
mand for bits of bread or dog
biscuits. These thoughts lulled
me into a slumber which lasted
until daybreak.
Now with dawn arrived I could
have scenery; but we were still
among the ragged hills of B.C.
The ever changing.hills, the count
less turbulent streams, and the
dense, sombre forests of stubby
cedars, towering spruces, and dis
torted firs—all of which may be
argued to be harshly beautiful—
only made me carsick and bored
at the tiresome familiarity. Elven
Mount Robson, snow-white and
tremendous, was to me a pile of
rock, by accident a little higher
than the surrounding mountains.
The conductor announced duti
fully that it was 12.972 feet above
sea-level, but I noticed obtusely'
that it was a mere S,000 or so feet
above ground-level. The Rockies
could ho more impress me: Is
this the great mountain chain?
Is this the great range? Is this
the mighty Rockies? Is this—all?
The train stopped conveniently

It s Up To The Chinese Canadians
One of the chief concerns of Japanese Canadians before
the war was the problem of acquiring franchise in British
Columbia.
British Columbia was the only province in Canada to deny
the right of franchise to a section of Canadian citizens; and
the measure enacted in 1902 to disfranchise all British sub
jects of Asiatic origin still stands.
The lack of franchise means that the Asiatics in British
Columbia are politically defenceless; they remain vulnerable
to all sorts of discriminatory legislations which can be passed
whenever there is sufficient agitation from economic groups
who feel themselves being “crowded out” by the Orientals.
The disqualification extends its influence beyond directly
political spheres. Exclusion from the voters’ list has been
made the basis of excluding Asiatics from the professions
of law and pharmacy by the rules of the Law Society and
the pharmacy by-laws. Based on the same principle, British
Columbia Asiatics were, and are, open to other discrimina
tory measures which narrow their already limited fields of
economic activity.

drastic changes to his life, and
possibly great suffering.
The government has not clari

been made for Matano in Japan:
he is known to have no relative

he has any in Japan. We would

quarter mile away the little green
and white signal flag arc-ed fran

Two
units of hissing, clanking loco
motive equipment approached and
rolled by with brakes groaning
under the strain of deceleration.
A couple of mail-and-baggage cars
slid by. A. jerking stop brought a
coach before me. I ’ clambered
aboard, almost breaking my shins
in doing so, and found a vacant
seat.
I felt uneasy at leaving home,
not being quite able to convince
myself that I was doing right.
I gazed sadly out the window but
it was still midnight, and I could
see nothing but my own poor re
flection. I thought of mother and
father, and of gentle, playful
“Poopsy.” How sincere, loving,
unaffected “Poopsy” was. The re
membrance of her soft warmth,
and her curly black hair which I
■would never embrace again, de
pressed me to tears. How she
loved to muzzle my cheek and lick
my nose, and to bark at my' com
mand for bits of bread or dog
biscuits. These thoughts lulled
me into a slumber which lasted
until daybreak.
Now with dawn arrived I could
have scenery; but we were still
among the ragged hills of B.C.
The ever changing.hills, the count
less turbulent streams, and the
dense, sombre forests of stubby
cedars, towering spruces, and dis
torted firs—all of which may be
argued to be harshly beautiful—
only made me carsick and bored
at the tiresome familiarity. Elven
Mount Robson, snow-white and
tremendous, was to me a pile of
rock, by accident a little higher
than the surrounding mountains.
The conductor announced duti
fully that it was 12.972 feet above
sea-level, but I noticed obtusely'
that it was a mere S,000 or so feet
above ground-level. The Rockies
could ho more impress me: Is
this the great mountain chain?
Is this the great range? Is this
the mighty Rockies? Is this—all?
