Treason Trial Soon
For Kamloops-Born

War Criminal
VANCOUVER. — Canada’s first
treason trial of a national serving
with the Japanese was scheduled
to open in Hong Kong late this
month.

According to Warrant Officer
Arthur Hogg of Vancouver, who
recently returned home from the
Hong Kong war trials, Kanao
Inouye, Canadian-born interpreter
at Hong Kong’s Stanley camp,
known to Canadian prisoners-ofwar as “Kamloops Kid." will go
on trial for his life before a mili­
tary tribunal shortly.
WO Hogg, who was court re­
porter at the Hong Kong war
trials, revealed that a death sen-

tence on Inouye was not confirmed when he produced evidence of Canadian citizenship.

The amount is for use in the

Claims Commission Needed
On the few occasions that the federal government has
referred to the forced liquidation of Japanese property by
the Custodian, obvious attempts were made to gloss over the
mgiiiy questionable act by stating that the sales were made
at fmh prices.
On January 2 4, the Prime Minister said:
With respect to the property of persons cf Japanese origin who
were removed

from the Pac:fic coast, and whose property were

■* IL

sold by the custodian, the government is of the opinion that the

Al

sales were made at a fair price. In ail cases a complete appraisal
was made before disposition.

1 may say that in each case the sale price received (on Japanese
perey) was considerably in excess of the valuation made by the

possible in order to get the best figure.

Japan Must Face a Hard Future

We do not doubt that the custodian acted with good
intentions. But on the basis of a survey on property losses
r.ow under way. and of actual documented cases brought to
our attention, we are convinced that the prices received for
the. properties were far below actual value in a large number
of instances.
We feel furthermore that on the basis of available
facts, there is good grounds for demanding- full information
on the way the properties were sold, who flie valuators were,
and what means were adopted by the Custodian to get the
best possible prices on the properties.
A recent survey limited to evacuees who are resettled
in the Toronto area revealed that properties (not including
personal property) estimated by their owners at a worth of
$1,400,000 had been sold for $350,000, mostly through the
Custodian.
There are no doubt some cases of overvaluation despite
the precaution exercised by those conducting- the survey,
and there may be cases where the depreciation factor and
unfilled claims on the property were not fully taken into
account.
But even allowing liberally for the margin of
inaccuracy, the losses come to a substantial proportion of
the actual value.
We feel confident that the Canadian government will
establish a claims commission to deal with Japanese property
’osses if they are persuaded of its need. A claims commission
was established to deal with properties belonging to Ukrain­
ian Labor organizations. The need for a similar procedure
appears even more justified in the case of evacuee properties.
But apart altogether from the question of whether losses
were or were not incurred, we cannot see how the forced
sales can be justified simply on a claim that the sale prices

Finally, Japan is still held in a
sort of economic blockade. Japan
is not being permitted to manu­
facture freely, and she is not being
-permitted to trade except in a
limited way with the United
Slates. How can Japanese industries reach high level production
under such handicaps? This last
argument has been advanced by
General MacArthur in arguing
that the United States is morally
bound to aid Japan.
Up to the end of 1946. Japan
imported 187 million dollars
worth of goods more than she
could pay for by her small export
trade. The difference was made
up by the l'nited States in the form
of a loan. Much of this import
was made up of raw cotton which
Japan needed for producing manu­
factured goods for export.
In order that Japan will export
manufactured goods and not use
them herself, the Allied Far East­
ern Commission has recnmmended
that the Japanese people must get
along on 2’A lbs. of household
textiles and clothing per person
this .year. This is quite a de­
crease from the pre-war consump­
tion of 13lbs. per person.
Similarly, restrictions are being
placed on the use of hardware,
imbber products, pottery, elec­
trical supplies, etc. In this way
the Japanese people will be ex­
pected to observe strict austerity
and do without a lot of goods they
would like to have in order that
the nation can . help pay for the
rood imports, and later The war
reparations.

at first but as he went along, we
got used to them and near the end
I almost forgot to notice a habitual
motion he makes with his hands
in the way of a cook wrestling

But his speech was interesting,
Naturally you would expect him
to have the dope on the Bill of
Rights since he’s been the one
most hopped up about it in the
House of Commons at Ottawa. He
laid down the form of what a Canadian Bill of Rights should take.
And when he said forcefully that
the rights of every citizen should
be guarded jealously no matter
what race, colour, sex or religion,
he really sounded sincere.
It is funny though to think that
the foremost leader in the Bill of
Rights movement is a member of
a party that has done very little
to distinguish itself as rar as opcon­
posing discrimination
cerned. Of course I think of this
because of Howard Green, who is.

Laurence Olivier is terrific as the
king. When he appears on the
stage and makes his first short
speech then you know you’ve lis­
tened to somebody.
The picture gives you a lot of
information on the Elizabethan
theatre which should help you to
enjoy all the other Shakespearean
plays.
One Winnipeg schoolteacher said you get more out of
seeing Henry V’ than by getting
five months of Shakespeare at
school.
The story opens as a play being
put on in 16tb century England’s
Globe Theatre. There are heck­
lers in the Shakespearean audi­
ence too.' All women’s parts are
acted by boys whose voices haven’t
changed.
Then when the play gets going,
the scene drifts away to real set­
tings. The gaudy costumes of the
players are now beautiful and in
good taste. The story progresses,
and in the final scene, it shifts
back again to the Globe Theatre.
You realize with a slight shock

The movie gives us Shakespeare
word for word. Some of the long
speeches and some of the scenes
are cut. but it doesn’t hurt the
story.
You get some beautiful
poetry, impressive pageantry, and
belly laughs a.s well. You begin
to feel that Shakespeare wasn’t
bad fellow after all.
One scene spoken entirely in
French by Princess Katherine and
her lady-in-waiting is one of the
most charming, especially if you
have had even one year of high
school French.
I liked the scene where King
Henry woos Princess Katherine.
The wolf Henry* is really far more
convincing at it than love-making

TWO EVACUAT5ONS — Canada and America
(An editorial in March S issue of Pacific Citizen)

marked by observers in reviewing
the evacuation of persons of Jap­
anese ancestry by the Canadian
and American governments. In the
beginning the two countries seem­
ed embarked upon similar pro­
grams for removing from the west
coast areas all persons of Japa­
nese descent to relocation centres
in the interior states. A program
oi "dispersal” was announced by*
noth countries to prevent a re­
concentration of Japanese Cana­
dians and Japanese Americans
uiion the shores of the Pacific.
With the passage of time, how­
ever, marked differences in the
attitude and treatment of the two

i

became apparevacuated
ent. These differences are pointed
out by Robert W. O’Brien of the
State College of Washington in a
study* entitled: "Evacuation of
Japanese from the Pacific Coast:
Canadian
American Contrasts.”
MARKED DIFFERENCES
IN ATTITUDES
The fundamental difference lay
in the divergent attitudes of the
War Relocation Authority in the
United States and the British
Columbia Seen rity Commission
and the Department of Labour in
Canada, says O’Brien.
From the beginning the War
Relocation Authority was primar-

Nisei Needed for Japanese Occupation Work

The American Army is in criti­
cal need of Nisei linguists to work
in the occupation forces in Japan.
So say stories in the American
Nisei newspapers and advertise­
ments by U.S. Army Recruiting
shout: “News For NISEI! High
School Graduates who can speak
and read both Japanese and Eng­
lish offered assignments in Mili­
tary* Intelligence Service.”
The offer is very attractive: if
the Nisei volunteer fills the above
requirements, he is given a ninemonth course in Japanese lang­
uage and related technical sub­
jects at the' Military Intelligence
California. Grades and ratmgs given on three-year en list­
xuents are: (1) Private Fir:
on enrollment: which is
step
higher than the ordinary volunteer
or
Technician Fifth
Grade upon completion of half of
course: (3) Technician Fourth
upon
graduation, then
choice of assignment: (4) Techincian Third Grade possible for
top lt'% of each class.
And selected graduates will be
eligible to apply for commissions
as 2nd Lieutenant in the Regular
Army,

How does this go for Canadian Niseis? Unfortunately. any.
Canuck who would like to take
this chance to see a bit of the
world, and get some free study
and experience in the bargain,
is a little bit cut of luck. There

two-and-ahalf strikes against him, if not
the whole three.

The War Department advises
us that present, peace-time legis­
lation on the subject of enlist­
ments in the U.S. Army requires
that only those persons be ac­
cepted for enlistment in the Regu­
lar Army who are citizens of the
United States or who have made
legal declaration of intent to bejorne-eitizen
the United States.
The War Department suggests
that anyone wishing to get into
this opportunity from Canada,
should comae
immigration
authorities through the American
Consulate for further information
on rules for lawful entry to the
United Stares for the purpose of
acquiring American citizenship.
The local American Consulate is
inclined to doubt the possibility of

ily concerned with the eventual
return of the evacuees to normal
American life. (As early as No­
v ember, 1942, Dillon S. Myer,
stated publicly that the purpose
of the WRA was to work itself
out of existence through a pro­
gram of resettlement.)
This objective was evidenced in
many ways.
REPATS FAVORED
IN CANADA

"The War Relocation Authority,” says
O’Brien,
"had an
avowed policy, of
the best
jobs and the best employment and
educational opportunities to those
individuals
and families who
demonstrated a willingness to
make their future in the United
Slates.’’ But in Canada, the re­
verse was true. in housing, employment, and education, those
Canadian
who signed for
repatriation to Japan were given
favourable treatment. In Tashme,
B.C., a prerequisite for teaching
in the relocation center primary
school was the signing of repatriation papers to "return" to Japan!
Thus the Canadian Nisei who still
held to his Canadian citizenship
was penalized for
loyalty.
Persons who signed for return to
Japan were also given preference
in lumber and highway jobs in
British Columbia, says O’Brien.
The attitude of the comparable
government agencies in regard to
education is particularly indicative
of the differing points of view
held by American and Canadian
authorities. In the U.S. relocation
centres, schools were established
from the very first as part of the
centres, and every effort was made
to maintain schools of high educa­
tional standards. In Canada, how­
ever, almost no provision was
made tor education. Elementary
schools were opened in make­
shift quarters with almost wholly*
inexperienced Nisei teachers. High
school training was never given
until 1944, when volunteer high
school teachers were sent to the
interior housing centres by the
Anglican and United churches of
Canada.

. legality* of the program. In the
United States, says O’Brien, the
legality of both the evacuation
and. detention of American-born
citizens of Japanese ancestry has
been subjected to question, and
the Supreme Court has avoided a
definite answer on the latter. In
Canada, however, the power of
the British Columbia Security
Commission and the Department
of Labour to keep second-generalion
in relocation centres
has* been generally unchallenged,
and the chief legal issue has been
whether' those possessing Cana­
dian citizenship can be deported.
The Supreme Court, of Canada
ruled on February 20. 1946, that
the Dominion has such power.
Thus, says O'Brien, as result of
its program of reabsorption of the
Japanese into American life, the
AV ar Relocation Authority could
report by Dec. 31, *1946, that 42.3
per cent of the evacuees, had returned to the West Coast, another
47.2 per cent had relocated in
other sections of the. United States
or were in the armed forces, 6.5
per cent were at Tule Lake await­
ing either resettlement or repatri­
ation, and the remaining 3.5 per
cent had either been repatriated
to Japan or were in internment
camps awaiting transportation.
At the same time the figures on
Canada were as follows: 37 per
cent were in interior housing
centres or awaiting repatriation
to Japan; 24 per cent were living
in eastern British Columbia; 21
per cent in the prairie provinces,
and IS per cent in eastern Canada.

to 30-odd Hamiltonians when a
basketball game was played be­

the King Street United Church

was evident the game was to be
a close one. At halftime, the score
stood 13-13, and continued neck to

26—Winnipeg, Final dress rehearsal.

The idea of getting together
grew from the fact that both the
Coaldale Bukkyo Kai, representing
the evacuee beet workers, and the
Coaldale Doshi-kai, an organiza­
tion of original Alberta residents,
were serving the same area and
had similar purposes. At a recent
meeting of the Bukkyo Kai, amal­
gamation with the Doshi Kai was
suggested because of this duplica­
tion, and met with full approval
of the Bukkyo members.
