ISSEI TO CANVASS IN SURVEY

Plans of the JCCD property sur­
vey were explained to the gather­
ing by secretary T. Kameoka. Mr.
Kameoka stressed the fact that
the survey* also covered all econo­
mic loss as well as losses from
property* disposition and urged Is­
sei co-operation. Many Issei vol­
unteered to assist in the canvass­
ing of the Toronto area that the
JCCD are planning.

VANCOUVER. —Basing its re­
port on opinions expressed by “a
labor department official in Ot­
tawa,” The Vancouver Sun in a
news story on Dec. 2, predicted
two major possibilities towards
the complete settlement of the
Japanese question:
1. That only a small percentage
or even none of the Canadian Jap­
anese would be deported: and
2. that Japanese remaining in
Canada will be permitted to reset­
tle anywhere in the Dominion, in­
cluding the Pacific coast.

The Sun said that both the de­
portation orders and residence re­
strictions were based on Emer­
gency* Powers Act, which is due
to expire March 31 or 60 days
after the federal parliament con­
venes, and this may not allow
enough time for deportation pro­
ceedings.
Added The Sun: “A labor de­
partment official in Ottawa ex­
pressed the opinion that no new
legislation will be passed to bar
Japanese from settling anywhere
in Canada.”

Mass Meet Will Discuss

Citizenship Defence

Group Closing
TORONTO. — Plans for early
disbanding of the Citizenship De­
fense Committee are to be put to
a mass meeting of Defense Fund
supporters Saturday, Dec. 14, at
the Church of All Nations.
At a recent meeting the execu­
tive decided that since the deport­
ation issue has been settled as
far as the legal proceedings were
concerned, the committee should
dissolve at an early7 date.
This sentiment is in keeping
with the situation of similar com­
mittees in other provinces.
In British Columbia a similar
committee has been dissolved
while the Civil Rights Defence
Committee in Winnipeg has been
absorbed into the Manitoba Japa­
nese Canadian Citizens Associa­
tion.

Last Voluntary Repats
To Leave December 23
VANCOUVER.—The next (5th)
repatriation boat is expected to
pick up the 200 Japanese repatri­
ates now waiting in Vancouver,
about Dec. 23. They will be joined
by 41 more voluntary repatriates
in Slocan.
On Dec. 17. 31 Manitoba repat­
riates will board the westbound
No. 1 train at the Winnipeg C-P-R.
station to meet the same boat.
This will be the last shipment of
voluntary repatriates to leave
Canada, bringing the total to
about 4,000 persons.

MONTREAL, P.Q.—It is report­

American tour, will visit Montreal

the previous cay.

The federal cabinet is ex­
pected to study the judgment
of the Privy Council before
arriving at any decision.

According to one source, “many
officials” in Ottawa hold the opin­
ion that time has virtually solved
the Japanese question, and with
their dispersal across the country
no further action of a sweeping
nature will be either necessary or
desirable.
The same report suggests that
the loyalty commission, authoriz­
ed under one of the orders in
council, to examine the loyalty of
any Japanese who had not asked
for deportation will not be set up
because there was no evidence of
widespread disloyalty among the
Japanese Canadians.
The orders in council, passed
on Dec. 15, 1945, authorized the
federal minister of labor to deport
Japanese internees and certain
other Japanese Canadians —
naturalized
and
Canadian-born
British subjects as. well as aliens
—-who had asked to be sent to
Japan.
The validity of these orders
was challenged by the Co-operatiye

Court of Canada. The court up­

Winnipeg Lawyer Says:

Individual Legal Action Possible
Despite Privy Council Judgment
WINNIPEG.—Commenting on the Privy Council’s judg­
ment on the Japanese deportation orders, J. B. Coyne, one
of the leaders of the Manitoba bar and an honorary presi­
dent of the Canadian Institute ot
International Affairs, urged recon­
sideration of the policy involved
“in the interests of liberty, fair
treatment and constitutional tra­
ditions.”
Mr. Coyne’s comment, carried
by the Winnipeg Free Press, was
as follows:
•‘Although their reasons are not
yet available here, nor the details
of their decision, according to the
news item the decision of the
Privy Council generally confirms
the opinion of the Supreme J^ourt
of Canada upholding the validity,
at least in part, of the orders-incouncil expelling from Canada

WINNIPEG, MAN., DECEMBER 7, 1946

The Unfavorable Decision
Now that the Privy Council has upheld: the Canadian
Government’s right to deport Japanese Canadians under
the orders in,council of. December 15, 1945, we may expect
another announcement of Government policy with respect
to Japanese Canadian affairs.
In the matter of repatriation, the Government is faced
with several alternative courses. It may decide to go ahead
with the compulsory deportation as originally planned, it
may decide to call it off altogether, or it may decide to limit
the deportation to only a few ‘‘unco-operative” cases. Or
if, as it happened earlier in the year, the Government is
caught between two fires—one group demanding deporta­
tion and another group opposing it-—it may refer the matter
to parliament.

It is very unlikely, however, that the Government will
try to push through the compulsory deportation scheme in
the face of determined opposition shown by various groups
in Canada. Furthermore, the “Japanese problem” is fairly
on the way to solving itself. About 4,000 persons among
the 10,000 persons “subject” to deportation under the orders
in council have left Canada voluntarily, and most of the
remainder have moved east of the Rockies and resettled in
various areas—with Government assistance and blessing.
There is little to be gained now in re-opening the contro­
versial question by attempting to deport these people.
But whichever course the Government decides to take,
it is encouraging to note that the adverse decision of the
Privy Council does not close the doors to further-defensive
action, if necessary.
This fact was brought out by Mr. J. B. Coyne, one of the
leaders of the Manitoba bar, when he was asked by a local
newspaper to comment on the Privy Council’s decision.
Mr. Coyne said that the decision of the Supreme Court of
^auSda and the Privy Council “are only opinions and are
not binding upon courts before which proceedings may be
taken by specific individuals.”

“Those courts,” Mr. Coyne added, “might reach a dif­
ferent conclusion in such cases, since the whole field of fact
and law may not have been wholly covered and disposed of
in these opinions.”
It is the opinion of this outstanding- lawyer that any per­
son served with a deportation order may take his case before
the court and have all the facts of the case reviewed.

As long as there is any danger that compulsory deporta­
tion may be attempted, it would be wise to be prepared for
it. and this fact is fully realized by the Co-operative Com­
mittees on Japanese Canadians, and Japanese Canadian
defence organizations which have been set up across Canada.

On Sending in Reports
One of the purposes of the New Canadian is to keep our readers
well informed in the activities of the Niseis and Isseis scattered across
the land. In attempting to do this, we have been and are helped
greatly by voluntary reports from orgauizations. personal notes on
births, engagements, marriages, and deaths, and news notes and clippings sent us from many of our subscribers. We are keenly appreciative
of all the time and effort taken by these people.
We feel, however, that this coverage can be improved greatly if
we could gain the co-operation of a larger number of Niseis in sending
in reports to us.
The essentials of a report on an activity, past or future, or any
happening, are very simple. The questions. Who. What. When. Where.
How and Why should be answered. Names of persons concerned
should be noted with first names preferably spelled out. although
initials are adequate if names are not obtainable. This is especially
important when two or more persons with the same surname are
involved.

Similarly, the name of the place where the happening took place,
not just “a church" or “the local hall." but “such and such a place"
should be included.

Now that the winter season is upon us. the Niseis in all parts of
Canada are getting back to the pre-war trend of social, athletic and
political activity. The New Canadian offers the best medium of
publicity of all Nisei doings.
Detailed reports from all the villages, towns and cities in which
relocatees are pursuing their new lives will help us inform the
Canadian Japanese and their many friends about the doings of othei
Niseis.
Your co-operation in the past is gratefully acknowledged and your
.future co-operation is strongly requested.

Editor, The New Canadian:
I should like to say how very
much. I enjoy reading: “The New
Canadian" and how valuable I
think it i in keeping up a bit
with changes and moves that are
being made in the Canadian
Japanese situation as well as with
news of the whereabouts of in­
dividuals.
In July, before we left Tashme
we made as complete a list of addresses
of the

we could and sent

then many have movbd so that
these addresses are in many cases
incorrect.

Would all ex-Tashme High
School students whose addresses
have changed from those given in
the July* list sent out please send
their correct addresses and phone
numbers to me at 214 St. George

If the ex-student is a housegirl
or houseboy or boarding away

fairly permanently settled, would
he or she please include the

Voices from the Past
From time to time news is re­
ceived of some Canadian Niseis
who found themselves stranded
in Japan by the outbreak of the
war. The following brief reports
may be of interest to some New
Canadian readers:
Miss Aiko Saita, contralto, was
touring Manchuria when the Avar
ended. She was taken captive by
the Russians, lost a lot of weight,
was repatriated to Japan in June,
and is now recuperating before
she enters the "musical field again.
Satoru Nakamura, baritone, is
in the Japanese movies, He is a
father of one, hopes to be a fatherof two next April.
Sho (Sab) Korenaga died of
beriberi in Manila. His brother
Yujiro is also dead. George Jutaro) Korenaga and Yoshi Katsu­

were repatriated from Singapore.
Fred Takahashi is another Singapore repatriate.
Teddy Furumoto, former Asahi
ballplayer, is with a U.S. Army
musical show.
Miss Trusty Yoshimura married

“The clipper? Oh! . . . well . . .

“That’s why ...”
“That’s why what?"
“That’s why I’m thinking of a
clipper. I haven’t time to sit
waiting in the barber shop, and
I can do it better myself anyway,
without getting all that hair onto
h!s undershirt, and in his ears.
Besides prices for kids went up,

“Looks awful!”
“It is kind of hard on Butchie,
trying to get my money’s worth
for his haircut, isn’t it?”
I mused on the heavy mop that
is Butchie’s hair after about six
weeks of growing. It really needs
a trim. I thought. Butchie was a
most interested listener to the de­
bate. He looked from me to the
Head of the House, and back
again.
“Am I going to the barber shop
today. huh?"
‘Not today Butchie. It’s Sunday."
“Do I need a haircut. Mom?"
“Need one! Migosh. your hair
grows like grass . . .!"
Butchie gazed at me with quizzical eyes, pretty sure but won­
dering. too, if what he had in
mind could be done.
“Mommie!

Not a bad idea at that!
Butchie’s ideas are quite logical.
Some of his others are rather
fantastic from the adult point of
view, of course. Christmas being
around the corner, both Butchie
and- Kitten have definite ideas as
to what they want Santa Claus to
bring them.
They haven’t the

does Santa. Claus really bring the

Can you see' him? How come he

I answer carefully, because
childish fancies can .do so mueb
harm after they’ve grown up. and
yet one wants them to keep ths
wonder and the joy of that festive
day. It’s not just another birth
day, when gifts are in order, how­
ever loving are those gifts . ..
but a special day of remembering
a certain Child, born two thou­
sand years ago. I try to explain
that the gifts we give that day
are given with love and remes

life for others.
At no time have I ever told the
children, except in the most oh
vious pretense of seriousness, that

Santa Claus, the fictional, jolly
old Saint Nick, is real, that be

ish minds are logical, and they
question such an impossibility.
Adults are more than foolish w
force that fantasy on their minds.

to make the children see Santi

j.he Far Horizon

Japan's Economic Prospects
ontario relief COMMIT.^

-ecent months correspoudRom Japan has been more
efficient to confirm reports
f^ difficult living conditions
^ that country. In general most
Lf the letters received from Canai fjv expatriates for instance.
KX cressed the extreme shortC/of food and resulting malCrition. especially in the' cities.
^hey have told of the .shelter
Coblems of thousands of people
^ homeless by the destruction
0/the air raids. The steady intx of repatriated soldiers and
I returning civilians from overseas
created a tremendous prob^ of absorbing several million
Workers back into industry. The
h^in evils of soaring price levels
iand the black market have added
hugely to Japan’s headache.
-To sum it all up,” according to
। one authoritative observer, "at
I the end of the first post-war year.
I Japanese living standards, except
t in the countryside, are extremely
| depressed, and industry is still
only in the first stages of reIcovery. Before production can
again become substantial an enor­
mous amount of capital recon| struetion is required and shortages of fuel and materials must
be relieved. The economic system,
moreover, will have to be com­
pletely reorganized in view of the
disappearance of the Zaibatsu
and the restrictions that the
Allies are likely to impose on cerlain industries.”
Such is the background to. the
report that the Ontario Committee
on Relief to Japan is attempting
io organize some measure of
voluntary aid for the people of
Japan. The Committee is seeking
permission from Ottawa to join
in the work of relief groups in the
United States, which have already
made shipments of food and cloth­
ing. If such permission can be
secured, no doubt a campaign for
assistance will shortly get under­
lay. it is assuring, it may be
said in passing, that the groups
backing the relief plan are those
whose honesty and good motives
cannot be doubted.

R FUTURE OF JAPANESE

| economy
8

NEW

As

against this local item. ancurrent report
of far
| treater importance. The U.S. re| Parations commissioner. Edwin

8 othe

W. Pauley, has submitted recom­
mendations calling for the practi­
cally complete extinction of all
Japan's heavy industry — the
entire basis to her war-making
potential. This involves the re­
moval by Allied Powers of threefourths of her key iron, steel, and
machine tool industry, the whole
of the magnesium, aluminum and
synthetic oil plants, over 50 per
cent flf electric power facilities,
and the reduction to a skeleton
basis of the once wide-trading
merchant marine.
The extent to which these farreaching steps will be carried out
will be discussed at the 11-power
reparations conference scheduled
for this month. Upon the con­
ference decisions will depend
largely the degree and the speed
at which Japan’s economy can re­
cover from its present low ebb.
And upon that in turn will depend
how long the Ontario Committee
will have cause to campaign, how
long Japanese Canadians will
have to worry about friends and
relatives in Japan, or to delay any
visit across the Pacific which
many undoubtedly are interested
in taking.

NEED FOR STABILITY

If broad statesmanship, rather
than power politics or the desire
for revenge, prevails at the con­
ference, there are two considera­
tions basic to policy. The first
aim, implicit in the U.S. repara­
tions commissioner's report, is to
prevent Japan from initiating or
joining in any aggression in the
future, The second aim will be,
within , those limits, to make
economic recovery possible. This
is the essential point advanced in
a review of the situation by
"World Today,” an international
journal of the Royal Institute for
International Affairs, published in
London.
It is recognized that some de­
gree of economic stability must
be achieved m Japan if she is not
to remain a continuing source of
unrest in the Far East. In spite
of the current American program
of democratization, the people
will lend a willing ear to military
jingoism in the future if such a
program means to them only
chronic impoverishment and a
tightened belt. Not only that but
just as an economically stable

SAN FRANCISCO. Calif.-Dras­
tic revision of the documentary
film on the wartime evacuation
and relocation of Japanese Amer­
icans. "Barriers and Passes.” was
suggested following a "preview”
of the picture before the San
Francisco J ACL recently.
The criticism was that the color
shots of the relocation camps were
"too pretty" and gave the impres­
sion that conditions were "sweet
and rosy" in the centres.
Germany is essential to the re­
covery of the whole of Europe, so
will Japan's productive capacity
be required to provide a consider­
able portion of the cheap manu­
factured goods, upon which the
rising standards of life in East
Asia depends.
The problem facing the Allied
Powers, then, is how to achieve
this stability and yet at the same,
time have the fullest regard for
security. The answer seems to
lie in a return to the economy of
the '20s with this difference that
new exports must be found to
make up for the serious decline in
the silk trade. Japan must fall
back upon the export of consump­
tion goods in order to pay for
essential imports. ‘Textiles-—-cot­
ton. rayon and wool—will be the
most important: and opportuni­
ties will be sought in such trades
as pottery, toys, light electrical
apparatus, small metal wares,
rubber goods and other miscel­
laneous consumption goods. It is
no accident, for instance, that the
first exports from Japan to
America are reported to be
Christmas tree ornaments.

EXPORTS AND IMPORTS

The quantity of such exports,
however, will have to be large to
balance the heavy needs for im­
ports of industrial raw materials.
For Japan depends upon outside
sources for practically all mate­
rials, for cotton, wool, rayon pulp,
iron and other metallic ores, fer­
tilizers, oil, sugar, and soya beans.
And without exports, imports are
impossible.
"It is thus not an exaggeration
to say,” in the words of World
Today, “that the .reconstruction
of a substantial export trade is a
condition of Japan’s survival, un­
less she is to become a perpetual
charge on the Allied nations. Yet,
because of the condition to which
her industries have been reduced,
several years may elapse before
she
can reach the required
volume of exports. For instance,
it may well take her four or five
years to rebuild capacity in the
cotton industry to enable her to
supply cotton goods on anything
like the pre-war scale.
Conse­
quently. for a long time to come
the achievement of a minimum
import-export program will mean
a very low consumption of manu­
factured goods at home and prob­
ably also a seriously deficient
diet."
YEARS OF WORK AHEAD

In short, we might say. that
apart altogether from any con­
siderations of politics or sym­
pathy, there will be a continuing
need for such relief work as is
envisioned by the Ontario Com­
JaPanese Children’s

hearing opened on July 16.
In the decision just handed
down, the Privy Council said
that in an emergency “the in­

terests of the Dominion are to
be protected and it rests with
the Parliament of the Dominion
to protect them,
What those
interests are the Parliament of
the Dominion must be left with
considerable freedom to judge.”

The judgment said there is no
justification for the use of excep­
tional powers granted under the
War Measures Act (and continu­
ed under the Transitional Powers
Act which expires next spring) if
it is clear, that the emergency has
not arisen or no longer exists.
■‘But very clear evidence that
an emergency has not arisen . . .
or no longer exists” is required
before the Privy Council can overrule a decision of the Parliament,
The judgment added: “It is not
pertinent to the judiciary to con­
sider the wisdom or propriety of
the particular policy embodied in
the emergency legislation. Deter­
mination of the policy to be fol­
lowed is exclusively a matter for
the Parliament of the Dominion
and those to whom it has delegated its powers.”
On all points raised, the judgment was given against the
appellants, the Co-operative Committee and the attorney-general of
Saskatchewan, and favored the
respondents, the attorney-generals
of Canada and British Columbia.

Mr. Macdonald stressed that

possessions towards leading the
Christian way of life. 20 members
and Rev. W. H. Pike were present.

FIRST GAME:
West Enders 52, Aces 41

The Easterners were really
hot; they had to be to set back a
team like the fast Aces. K. Mit­
sui, G. Hirano and Nikaido topped
the winners’ sniping column with
20, 14 and 13, respectively. Chuck
and Kenny Oda, Paul Hirano and

was attended by 40 Hy-Noter mem­
bers in the Hy-Noter clubroom in
All-Peoples’

The program included games,

Yon Shimizu, usually a potent
point-getter, was checked too
effectively to do much damage.
