THE FAR HORIZON
Across the country, readers of
The New Canadian will be glad To"
know that the wartime tide of
anti-Japanese feeling on the Pa
cific Coast is steadily dying away.
This, at least, is the impression
gained from a trip to Vancouver.
It is bolstered by some happy, if
curious, signs that democratic
forces have not been completely
throttled in the great betrayal of
Canadian democracy for which
history will judge the west coast.
We spent some time in Vancou
ver just shortly after the atomic
bomb had wrung unconditional
surrender from Japan. In those
months feeling was still high, for
emotionally-induced racism is not
turned on and off by political
armistice or decree. A Canadian
Army uniform itself was not necessarily protection against rabid
hate, nor a guarantee of demo
cratic rights. Former students of
the Army Language School will
wryly agree — recalling the atti

from a West Vancouver theatre

LESS HATE IN
VANCOUVER
Talking with friends out there
recently, they agree unanimously
that public opinion has altered
noticeably for the good. The west
coast, they feel, is going through
a period of levelling-off in wartime
hysteria. As wartime conditions
are replaced by normalcy, so too,
if more slowly, are wartime hates
and fears replaced by truer democratic instincts.
We walked the streets and
stores of Vancouver for a week,
without the slightest concern as
to our reception. A shoeshiner, a
hat blocker, a pants presser, and
waiters in cafes and parlors asked
if we had come back to live.
They were surprised to hear it
was still “STRENG VERBOTEN!”
Were it not for that hard core
of narrow greed, ignorant preju
dice and self-seeking opportunism,
the -wartime clouds would be al
most gone.

A high regard for individual freedoms has been one of
the prized possessions of the British people. Canadians have
assumed that it was theirs too, by inheritance, but lecently
a serious doubt has been cast on that assumption. The
reason is that there have been violations of individual
freedoms in Canada which could hardly have taken place
in Britain.-These violations have been of two types—those which
took place under the federal government, and others which

A great change is taking place
in Japan where less than 100 years
accepted
a so feudalism
yrder, where ideas like democracy
and individual liberties were never
really known or appreciated.
In the year and a half of occupation. the emperor has been
brought down to the human les el
and the government has been
placed in the hands of elected
representatives.
1 rue, the Japa
nese people were not politically
developed enough last year to
make the best use of their new
rights which gave them the power
to choose their own government.
For the most part they voted back
into power the old-time leaders
because the people . didn't know
who represented their interests.
But the social-democratic party,
which may be called a more truly
representative people’s party, is
gaining strength rapidly and will
probably gain new prominence
after the general elections next
month.
Although a democratic form of
government has been adopted in
Japan, there is no guarantee that
it will outlast the occupation, un
less the Japanese people come to
believe in it and are determined
not to Jet the government fall back

of all, the Japanese, people are
now being given a personal stake
in the new way of life.
Labor, through strong Hade
union development, has been given
a new power to influence wages
and working conditions. Farmers
are being given the opportunity to
buy lands and thus escape foimer
exploitation under the landlords.
Women have been given the franre being encouraged
chise, and
a
sense ot equality
to develop
with men. These—the workers,
the farmers and the women—who
make up the great masses of the
Japanese nation are consolidating
their new gains under the system
brought by American occupation.
The process is far from com
pleted, but as it progresses, the
people, jealous of their new
rights, may be expected to re
sist with increasing determination any attempts to bring back
the old order which would take
away those rights.
But the success or failure of
democracy in Japan is tied in
closely with how well Japan can
recover from her present economic
crisis. Thus the occupation policies. the details of the reparation
plans, and the extent oi outside
assistance to restore Japanese
economy may
assume increasing importance in.

that he himself was thinking

Bombers' Saints Tangle in Cage Final
.By “LONGSHOT
Basketball
seems
to agree
With the Nisei almost as much
as baseball does.
In Toronto,
Montreal, Winnipeg, Hamilton
and
other
southern
Ontario
points, Nisei teams and leagues
vie in the game of hitting the
hoop.
And in the beet district
of southern Alberta, in the in
terior
of
8.C.,
many
school
teams
have
Nisei
members
sparking them.
IN
NEW
WESTMINSTER
New Westminster. B.C.. hosted
a B.C. high school cage tourney
last week and two Niseis were
among the SO-odd players from all
over the province who mixed it in
the eight-team competition. The
Niseis. Frank Wakida and Bud
Iwasaki, were members of the
Kamloops High entry which bowed
tn the first round to a high-flying
Prince Rupert squad. Canadians
01 Chinese and East Indian origin
were key players on the top
favorite Victoria team.
AT
REVELSTOKE
Niseis figured prominently in a
brace of games in Revelstoke.
B.C., recently, when the local high
s< hoolers whipped a Salmon Arm
team. 25-17, anti the Junior Boys
team downed the High School
girls in an exhibition.
Among
those taking part were Wakita
and Saimoto of the RHS quintet.
Amano and Saimoto of the Junior
Boys and Niseiette Fukuyama on
the High School girls’ team.
SOUTHERN
ALBERTA
SCENE
Johnny Yamabe is the most
highly-routed Nisei hooper in the
Alberta, beet country. A member
ot the Taber Intermedia.tes and
only Nisei on his team. Yamabe
is a consistent high scorer and a.
strong factor in the Taber string
01 victories.
Other Niseis who
figure in the Alberta sports news
aie Oshiro and Saito of Coaldale
High. School "Gophers." Yama
moto and Koyanagi of Taber High
School "Globe-trotters.” Kanas hi ro
and the 'foyama brothers of the

TORONTO.—Last year’s champs
and this year’s league leaders are
mixing it in rhe Toronto Nisei
Basketball League finals this year.
And the veteran Bombers got their
first punch in with a 50-31 win
over the much-favoured Saint
Christophers in the first of a twoout-of-three final playoff. Friday.
March 7.
BOMBERS 50, SAINTS 31
Bombers’ win over the classy
Sainis was a surprise to many of
the "experts." The veterans out
played and outshot the league
leaders practically' throughout the
game, while the Sainis were at
their worst.
Good defensive play by Bomb
ers kept high scorer Ken Miyasaki
to only 11 points.
Hide loi and
Sockeye Tsukamoto were top men
lor the winners, with loi showing
his best form this season.

but deadly shooting by Maka
Makimoto. Kenny Miyasaki and
Aki Koyanagi spelled the East
erners’ defeat.
Makimoto was
high man for the game with 22
points. Ken Miyasaki had 16,
while Koch Mitsui was high man
for the losers with 19 points.
Aces were handicapped-by being
without their deadly-shooting cap
tain Yon Shimizu, while Bombers
Relief for Japan and the Eco
nomic Loss Survey were the main
topics of discussion at the second
general meeting held recently, it
was hoped that all would aid in
these two important drives.
Nisei basketball has been or
ganized in Chatham, but owing to
not being able to obtain a gym
regularly, practises have been few,
although there is a lot of en
thusiasm.
On Feb. .15, a Chiltharn team
was invited to London for a
friendly game.
For their first
game, the local hoopsters did well
considering that they had only
started
recently.
Ten
players
visited London and were defeated
40-28.
Miss Clark and Mrs. English
gave talks of encouragement to
the group at the election general
meeting.
A practise game, Wednesday,
Feb. 26, between the Park Street
Church quintet and the KNFG,
found the Nisei.squad on the top
end of the score.
PLAYOFFS
Championship of the Winnipeg
Nisei Basketball League will be
decided Monday, March 17, when
the Kilroys meet Streaks for a.
sudden death decider ar. 9:30 p.m.
in the YWCA gym. From all in
dications. it looks, like anybody’s
game since Kilroys easily topped
the league schedule, while Streaks,
who limped badly at the early
part of the schedule, have won
their last four games handily.
COLLEGE
AMERICAN
CAGING
Richard Mamiya, alternate on
the University of Hawaii’s basket
ball team, became the second
Nisei to play basketball in Madi
son Square Garden when Hawaii
lost to St. John’s recently, reports
Pacific Citizen.
The first Nisei
was Wat Misaka, star forward on
the University of Utah’s national
champions of 1944. who played
with the Utes in three games in
the huge New York sports palace,
including a victory over St. John’s
to win the national title. Misaka
is a starting forward on the Utah
team, finalist this year in the Big
Seven conference playoffs.
