Minister of Mines and Resources,

advantage of the new rules.
He estimated that about 3,547

would eventually become naturalized and qualify to brin

ANGLICAN SYNOD
URGES HELPING HAND
TO RELOCATEES
MONTREAL.—Welfare of the
Japanese Canadian relocatees in
Montreal, insofar as they are^Anglicans or unconnected with any
Christian body, is the responsibil
ity of the Anglican parishes, de
clared Rev. E. Cecil Doyle, at the
SSth Annual Anglican Synod in its
meeting here recently.
OTTAWA.—There will be no
post-war immigration of Japanese
into Canada, said Prime Minister
Mackenzie King in the House of
Commons last week.
Mr. King
commented bn Japanese immigra
tion in a general statement on
Canada's immigration policy.
He stood by his 194-4 state
ment in which he said the gov
ernment felt that in the years
after the war the immigration
of Japanese should not be permitted.
“That is the present view and
policy of the governihent," he
added. “It will be for future parliaments to consider what change.
if any. should be made in this
policy . . .”
B.C. Indian Charges
Move To Bring Back
Japanese To Coast
OTTAWA.—A charge was made
before the joint parliamentary
committee on .Indian Affairs, that
“a move was being made to. bring
the Japanese back to the coast
and thus force the Indian fishermen in B.C. out of their jobs, last
week.
Thomas Gosnell, an Indian from
Fort Simpson. B.C., told the joint
committee that West Coast can
ning companies “make it a general
practise” of keeping Indians in
debt with them. He said that last
winter some of the canneries had
warned natives—who caught more
than 50 per cent of the B.C. salmon
catch—that their services might
no longer be needed. This was
due to the move to bring Japanese
back to the west coast, Gosnell
suggested.
RAYMOND, Alta.—Relations between the Niseis and
their parents was the topic of discussion at a meeting of
the ‘“'Canadian Citizens Group at the Raymond Buddhist
Church, on April 19.
and Magrath districts with as
similation of the Japanese in
Alberta into Canadian society as
its chief objective.
It is planned to have a meeting
with local Occidental groups Ao
promote the assimilation aim in
the near future.
PARENTS SHOULD GIVE
ADULT CHILDREN PAY
One of the points brought out
by Issei speakers in the discussion
on Issei-Nisei relationships was
that the parents should acknowl
edge that their children are adult
individuals after they reach the
age of 16, and should give them
the money they earn for their
work on the farms. This indicated
the strength of the older type of
thinking still prevalent in Alberta
farms wherein the members of the
family hand in all their earnings
to the head of the family who
maintains strong, control over the
WINNIPEG—Japanese Canadians who were “repatriated”
to Japan are seeking to return to Canada. Also trying to
return are some Niseis who were stranded in japan at the
outbreak of the war.
Letters received by The New Canadian recently indicate
that the “repatriated” Niseis are not finding- adjustments
easy, and are hoping to leave Japan as soon as the authorities will permit.
Complaint is voiced by some
that while the U.S. government
has provided the machinery for
the clearance of American Niseis
in the same predicament, nothing
has been done so far by the Cana
dian government for Canadians.
Some ‘‘repatriated” Niseis are
asking their relatives in Canada
to secure, them copies of their birth
certificates so they will be able
. to prove their Canadian birth.
One Nisei girl has written “Is
it true that the only way to get
back to Canada is by marrying
an American soldier?” She adds
that one

this year by Japanese Canadians

family finances.
This was not conducive to happy
relations because the Niseis have
been raised in Canadian ways or
‘thinking and feel that what thej'
earn should belong to them.
ISSEIS AND NISEIS
SHOULD DISCUSS PROBLEMS
Another suggestion was that
the Japanese family should adopt
the Canadian way of discussion of
family problems between the par
ents and the children instead of
the traditional waj’ of dictatorial
rule by the parents.
The older folk wanted the
Niseis to educate them in Cana
dian ways,' one Issei speaker
said.
The younger folk should
have the knowledge and the
contacts that the
immigrant
parents lack and so should help
fill the gaps.

By Sue Sada
Then all you could hear was a
steady munching.
Mom didn't
think anything more of it till she
was startled by Kitten saying:
“M-m-m ... I sure like these
eight-balls.”
Talking of eight-balls reminds
me how Mom was behind one last
.week. Littler One caught a cold
and passed it on to Mom, and
there it stayed. There was a
speech in the offing and naturally
Mom was getting worried. Dis
cipline was machine-gunned with
coughs, and conversation pompom-eiled with coughs and every
sound out of Mom was shot with
ack-ack.
Cough syrups are sweet, but
they have a way of curling up in
side Mom and lying down on their
job. Even a mild prescription be
longing to the kids went down
Mom’s gullet and stayed down
without co-operating. So every
body signalled Uncle Doc for help.
Uncle Doc took an earful of the
cough and decided that the usual
dose couldn’t stand up to Mom, so
he upped it to the maximum.
h
r*
Came the night of the speech.
Mom being very dubious about
the new svrup, saved it till that
£ *
very evening, so it wouldn’t have
a chance to get used to her. Sock
the cough with a fresh dose and
she might get through the speech
without a hack-hack. Well, as it
happened . . .
On the way to the speech, Mom
had dinner with a few friends,
and with her went the nice new
syrup. She wasn't taking any
chances. At the dinner table Mom
propped the bottle right at hand,
reminded the friends to remind
Mom to keep it out of sight, as
the contents of the bottle looked
rather .Questionable.
of her head began to sweat. Hor
rors, she had the DT's. whatever
that is . . . and if it’s a shaking
all over, f/’n's <cus it.
The cnairman introduced Mom
to the audience. Feeling rather
over-heated, and tightened all
over. Mom strode up to the spindly
table, slammed down her folder
of papers, and leaned on the frail
support. She distinctly felt it
tremble.
"Do you want to take a spoon
with you?”
“Oh, it's all right. 1'11 just take
a swig when 1 need it,”
"In front of everyone ?”
"Well, maybe there’s a kitchen
somewhere . . .”
"Remember your Doe said that
two spoonfuls were the limit.”
“Um.”
"Ladies and gentlemen. 1 think
my-feet are shaking, please don’t
look under the table.”
7:30 p.m. Mom’s throat began
to tickle. Mom took a tiny sip to
sort of start things going. Darn
thing takes half an hour to work
and working up to the full dose
might be a good idea. The tickle
disappeared till S:30 p.m. when it
really began to annoy Mom and
the cough made its usual evening
appearance. So, at S:45 p.m.. Mom
sneaked into a kitchen, borrowed
a spoon, and took the rest of the
dose. If Mom should ever end up
in a flop-house, this may be said
to be the beginning of the end.
Mom's heart tightened all of a
sudden, and then slowly the top
A roar of laughter. Mom grinned
very happily, as she just loves a
friendly audience, and she just
binds a spell around them usually
. . . but this evening Mom was
bound right in the spell as much
as anyone listening.
“The pointy . . the point . . . my
friends, the point of it is . . .”
Mom chased the point all around
a whirling brain, and finally de
cided she would catch it the next
time around. But no matter, the
audience seemed to find .Mom
quite entertaining and informative.
They laughed a lot . . . simply
roared, it seemed to Mom, whose
ears were buzzing, and every time
her tongue balked at a word, she
slopped, a pause for effect sort of,
while she re-focussed her eyes,
and tried to remember what she
was talking about.
Never was evacuation so amus
ing, never was discrimination so
hilarious! We laughed the whole
thing off as a joke. Then Mom
would remember something sad,
and she would feel so sad that
the audience gulped in silence.

Japanese Canadian readers of

surprised to recognize Satoshi
(Sally)'Nakamura in a picture on
page 25 of the May 5 issue.
The photo showed members
(among them
Nakamura)
of
Tokyo's Imperial Theater com
pany during a dress rehearsal of
their all-Japanese production of
"My Old Kentucky Home." This
mixture of ‘‘cornpone and chitlins
with Stephen Foster” (to quote
Time) followed on the heels of
John Drinkwater's “Abraham Lin
coln.” and Shakespeare's "Mac
beth” in presentations of western
dramatic culture to Japanese audi
ences.
Sally Nakamura, well-known as
a baritone, comedian and athlete
in pre-war Vancouver, went to
Japan before the war and was
last reported doing well in Japa
nese movies.
President Truman warned the
people of the United States a few
weeks ago that unless certain
steps were taken now, there would
be a recession. The President
asked businessmen to cut prices
before they were forced to do so
through lack of sales. He asked
labor not to make excessive wage
demands which would increase
costs to the producers. He asked
farmers to increase production.
“Recession” and “depression”
are terms heard commonly these
days.
Recession means a tem
porary falling off in business,
while depression, as we
all
know, is much more serious.
Let’s get behind the economic
scenes for a moment and try to
understand the forces which are
driving United States, and Can
ada, toward a recession.
Wartime Prosperity
During the war there was an
artificial prosperity; -jobs were
plentiful and pay was good. But
goods were hard to get. That was
because we were making war ma
terials and not consumer goods.
During this period there was a
danger that the people would bid
against one. another for the scarce
commodities which would have led
to skyrocketing prices.
To guard against this inflation
danger, control measures were
passed. Price and rent ceilings
were fixed. Wages were frozen.
High taxes were imposed to re
duce purchasing power. Scarce
basic commodities were rationed
to insure a fair distribution.
Reconversion
When the war ended, indus
tries changed over from making
war materials to consumer goods.
This was the period of reconver
sion.
Reconversion is practically com
pleted now but it takes time be
fore enough goods can be produced
to meet the needs of millions of
people who have money saved up
and are eager to buy. Neither Can
ada nor the United States could, at
this stage, afford to take off con
trols.
The Canadian government has
followed a policy of gradual de
control. The plan was to wait
until any items became plenmui
and then lift or remove the price
controls on those specific items.
Price increases did take place un
der this plan, but these price in
creases were mostly the result of
increased costs, and not due to
shortages.
U.S. Plan.
United States, however, did not
wait as long as Canada. Controls
came off last year before goods
had become plentiful enough. This
course was taken chiefly because
of the demands of manufacturers
who argued as follows: If con
trols are removed prices (and
profits) would increase and the
producers will then have an in
centive to produce more, and the
increased production would then
catch up with the demands and
force prices down- to the proper
level through competition; on the
other hand, if prices and profits
are kept down by controls, pro
duction would be slow because of
the lack of incentive.
But the theory didn’t work out
that way in practice. Production
increased as predicted, but prices,
after a period of fluctuations, stay
ed up and showed no signs of
coming down.
What were the reasons? There
were several. Strikes had held
up the production of certain basic
commodities. Urgent demand for
export kept the agricultural prices
from coming down. Domestic con
sumers kept buying in spite of the
increasing prices, and producers
found it unnecessary to cut prices
even though profits were mount
ing.
The Warning
But prices cannot remain as high
as they are indefinitely. Produc
tion is still increasing, but people
cannot buy as much as before bocause of the high prices. Wnen
the buying slows up and stocks be
gin piling up in the stores, reces
sion will have started. The onlyway to prevent it is to lower pricey
before buying slows down.
The United States P<eskieriT
warned:
“There is one sure formula for ■
bringing on a recession or a
depression. That is to maintain
excessively high prices.
Buy
ing stops; production drops; un
employment sets in; prices col
lapse;
profits vanish;
business
men fail.”
The feeling is that the warn
ing has come too late, that the
President
should have acted
sooner.
Businessmen usually don t lower
prices until they are iorced to
through falling sales. Experts pre
dict that a temporary and partial
business slump is inevitable in the
United States. It is expected to
show itself in the next few montnu,
and last for about nine months;
but it will not reach the scout?
of a depression.
"Chinese Repeal"
(Continued From
Page One)
leader M. J. Coldwell said that tho
discrimination should be wholly
removed and Chinese Canadians
be placed on a par with other
racial groups in Canada.
The 1.941 census showed that
there were around 34,000 persona
of Chinese race in Canada, about
half of whom were living m Brit
ish Columbia. Because of the
strict restrictions against their
entry into Canada, the ratio ol’
Chinese men to women stood at
about 10 to 1. The majority of
adult Chinese are believed to have
families in the old country.
A 1931 order-in-couDcil which
made it practically impossible for
Chinese to become naturalized was
repealed in February this year.

By Sue Sada
Then all you could hear was a
steady munching.
Mom didn't
think anything more of it till she
was startled by Kitten saying:
“M-m-m ... I sure like these
eight-balls.”
Talking of eight-balls reminds
me how Mom was behind one last
.week. Littler One caught a cold
and passed it on to Mom, and
there it stayed. There was a
speech in the offing and naturally
Mom was getting worried. Dis
cipline was machine-gunned with
coughs, and conversation pompom-eiled with coughs and every
sound out of Mom was shot with
ack-ack.
Cough syrups are sweet, but
they have a way of curling up in
side Mom and lying down on their
job. Even a mild prescription be
longing to the kids went down
Mom’s gullet and stayed down
without co-operating. So every
body signalled Uncle Doc for help.
Uncle Doc took an earful of the
cough and decided that the usual
dose couldn’t stand up to Mom, so
he upped it to the maximum.
h
r*
Came the night of the speech.
Mom being very dubious about
the new svrup, saved it till that
£ *
very evening, so it wouldn’t have
a chance to get used to her. Sock
the cough with a fresh dose and
she might get through the speech
without a hack-hack. Well, as it
happened . . .
On the way to the speech, Mom
had dinner with a few friends,
and with her went the nice new
syrup. She wasn't taking any
chances. At the dinner table Mom
propped the bottle right at hand,
reminded the friends to remind
Mom to keep it out of sight, as
the contents of the bottle looked
rather .Questionable.

rors, she had the DT's. whatever
that is . . . and if it’s a shaking
all over, f/’n's <cus it.
The cnairman introduced Mom
to the audience. Feeling rather
over-heated, and tightened all
over. Mom strode up to the spindly
table, slammed down her folder
of papers, and leaned on the frail
support. She distinctly felt it
tremble.
"Do you want to take a spoon
with you?”
“Oh, it's all right. 1'11 just take
a swig when 1 need it,”
"In front of everyone ?”
"Well, maybe there’s a kitchen
somewhere . . .”
"Remember your Doe said that
two spoonfuls were the limit.”
“Um.”
"Ladies and gentlemen. 1 think
my-feet are shaking, please don’t
look under the table.”
7:30 p.m. Mom’s throat began
to tickle. Mom took a tiny sip to
sort of start things going. Darn
thing takes half an hour to work
and working up to the full dose
might be a good idea. The tickle
disappeared till S:30 p.m. when it
really began to annoy Mom and
the cough made its usual evening
appearance. So, at S:45 p.m.. Mom
sneaked into a kitchen, borrowed
a spoon, and took the rest of the
dose. If Mom should ever end up
in a flop-house, this may be said
to be the beginning of the end.
Mom's heart tightened all of a
sudden, and then slowly the top
A roar of laughter. Mom grinned
very happily, as she just loves a
friendly audience, and she just
binds a spell around them usually
. . . but this evening Mom was
bound right in the spell as much
as anyone listening.
“The pointy . . the point . . . my
friends, the point of it is . . .”
Mom chased the point all around
a whirling brain, and finally de
cided she would catch it the next
time around. But no matter, the
audience seemed to find .Mom
quite entertaining and informative.
They laughed a lot . . . simply
roared, it seemed to Mom, whose
ears were buzzing, and every time
her tongue balked at a word, she
slopped, a pause for effect sort of,
while she re-focussed her eyes,
and tried to remember what she
was talking about.
Never was evacuation so amus
ing, never was discrimination so
hilarious! We laughed the whole
thing off as a joke. Then Mom
would remember something sad,
and she would feel so sad that
the audience gulped in silence.
Then she realized time was up
anyway, and she ought to sit.
down, so she wound up her speech
with an admonition:
"If you don't stop me right now,

the "thank-you" speech winch said

An Experiment in Democracy
Looking Up
(From The Christian Science Monitor)
This Thing Called Jazz-2
Jazz at the Auditorium
We were a little peeved as v.- e
walked into the Winnipeg Auditorium for Norman Granz’ Jazz at
the Philharmonic concert.
The advertising for the show

we had been told of all the jazz
greats who were going to turn
up—Buddy Rich, Coleman Hawkins, Willie Smith, Buck CI ayton, Trummy Young, Flip Ph i I.lips—to go down the list on the
billboards.
My companions were the two

the other a trumpeter who blows

course; and the presence of alto
Willie Smith, the great Luncelord and Harry James saxman;
the Hawk, acknowledged king of
the tenor sax, and Flip of the
Woody Herman band, promised
kicks. Trumpeter Art was chiefly
going to hear Buck Clayton, one
ot the Count Basie greats.
Me, being a Herman Herd ad
dict, was all excited about Flip;
and Buddy Rich is one of the few
drummers I like.
So, the day of the concert, a
little item appears in the papers

a jazz fan who lives in “hillybilly”, Winnipeg can truly appreciate our feelings.

Headliner of the show was,
naturally, Coleman Hawkins, Norman Granz introduced him as “the
greatest figure in jazz today.’ He
is considered head and shoulders

because, sadly I have to admit, the
Hawk leaves me cold.
His numbers were Hawk s idea,

Hawkins’ Body and Soul, It is

we had been able to pick up some
of the low register stuff.
After all was said and done,
"Willie Smith and his alto was the
highlight of the concert. We had
heard him on records and in per
son with the Lunceford band,
when he and Trummy were still in
there, but this concert was the first
time we had heard Willie open up
and show what he could really do.
The routine went like this. In
the first portion, the whole group
of six instrumentalists, which in
eludes the rhythm section, is on
the stage and they steam through
what the program ?alls four “ensemble" numbers.
Three of these were group num
bers: Blues at the Philharmonic.
Tea for Two and Flying Home.
In all of them Willie’s alto solos
dominated, with Coleman Hawkins
adding his bit. Each man comes
in for solos with just the rhythm
backing him and then the tune
ends up with a short loud blast on
the original riff. Very simple ar
rangements and in case of some
solos, very tasteful.
Trummy Young was featured
the fourth number. The former
Lunceford. Spivak and Goodman
trombone man played Stardust,
first slow and then hot. -Very
pleasant and perhaps it might have
been even better if one of the
mikes had not been defective and
scheechings in vogue today) ana
it is easy to understand why the
Hawk is considered tops.
But I think I will have to grow
into liking him. At this stage he
doesn’t excite me.
Smith seemed to overdo his com
mercial slants, like hitting a thin
high note once in a while just for
effect (and the crowd roars) and
doing a slurring business in
phisticated Lady one time too
much for me. But these things are
very minor. Smith is a wonder on
his alto and provides more excitement than Johnny Hodges, for
example, whose style is limited to
one kind of sound. But it isn’t
practical to compare the two
styles since they are not aiming
at the same thing.
Besides I think Hodges is pretty
sensational, too, and his Sunny
Side of the Street work (Lionet
Hampton’s version) can hit me
any time.
But I’ll go into the concert
further in a second article. There
will be more about the concert aa whole and Norman Granz and
a backstage session that made up
greatly for our feeling of being
gypped somewhat.
Butch Watanabe
Readers of the Montreat Stan
dard weekly will have seen a
Canadian Nisei jazzman featured
in a pictorial writeup in the April
26 issue about a Montreal small
band led by colored trumpeter
Louis Metcalfe at the Cafe St.
Michel.
"The centre double-page spread
tells of how Metcalfe got together
a mixed jazz group, including
Negro, West Indian, French Cana
dian, Mexican, Swedish Canadian,
and Japanese Canadian musicians.
Jerry “Butch” Watanabe is the
Japanese
Canadian and
only
trombone man in the group.

Next man on was the trombone
man, Trummy Young. Trummy, a
tall slender character, plays what
called “trumpet style” tromis
bone. That is, he plays fast and
furious and attacks like a trumpet. After the smooth nlce-tordancing-bui-otherwise-dull flow of
Tommy Dorsey, et cetera, Young
is refreshing.
He. like Willie Smith, was one
of the origina4 Jimmy Lunceford
nien and is featured in many of
that band's greatest records. He
wrote "Whatcha Know, Joe,”
remember?
Trummy played “Margie"’ as in
the Lunceford arrangement and
then sang it just as he did on the
record. It was a mild sensation.
The crowd lapped it. up.
Next came a vocal and solo on
Talk of the Town, which as far as
I was concerned didn’t jell so
well. But it was still very nice.
Trummy is a great showman and
an always interesting trombone
player.

of
The Americans of Japanese
ancestry in Hawaii from December
7th on, lived under Army rule with
their neighbors, as American ci Lizens, as they had always. Despite
their racial background, they lived
without fear of serious discrimina
tion or worse, amidst the tensions
of war. It is not surprising that
the record now shows, notwith
standing the many false rumors
to the contrary, that there was no
serious sabotage nor any fifth
column coming from their ranks
to endanger the American war ef
fort.
Did Full Share
On the contrary, the Americanborn Japanese in the islands, who
in 1940 accounted for three-quar
ters of jhe total residents of/Japa
nese ancestry, did. their full sharv
in supporting the United States.
The combat records of their sons
on the battlefields of Europe compare well with those of the Caucasians. As a racial group, they
showed that, in a democratic
country, which expected of them
the same degree of loyalty as
from other citizens, the ties of
birth were stronger than the ties
of ancestry.
“Hawaii’s Japanese: An Experiment in Democracy” by Andrew
W. Lind (Princeton University
Press) is a record of this test of
racial prejudice and racial retations. It is a record ihat shows
a great victory for democracy, fm
racial tolerance, for, indeed, con
crete application on a broad scale
of the Golden Rule.

“Since there are in Canada (ac

all Canadians be immediately

On Tolerance
Both Issei and Nisei spokesmen
agreed that meetings like this one
where older and younger genera
tion opinions can be exchanged
were a good idea and should be
held oftener.
A fine letter from Miss Dorothy
Greer makes an interesting postcript to the suggestion here that
there is a new tolerance to be

is her story:

We were a little peeved as v.- e

the Philharmonic concert.

we had been told of all the jazz
greats who were going to turn
up—Buddy Rich, Coleman Hawkins, Willie Smith, Buck CI ayton, Trummy Young, Flip Ph i I.lips—to go down the list on the
billboards.
My companions were the two

course; and the presence of alto

the Hawk, acknowledged king of
the tenor sax, and Flip of the
Woody Herman band, promised
kicks. Trumpeter Art was chiefly
going to hear Buck Clayton, one
ot the Count Basie greats.
Me, being a Herman Herd ad
dict, was all excited about Flip;
and Buddy Rich is one of the few
drummers I like.
So, the day of the concert, a
little item appears in the papers

Headliner of the show was,
naturally, Coleman Hawkins, Norman Granz introduced him as “the
greatest figure in jazz today.’ He
is considered head and shoulders

because, sadly I have to admit, the
Hawk leaves me cold.

we had been able to pick up some
of the low register stuff.
After all was said and done,
"Willie Smith and his alto was the
highlight of the concert. We had
heard him on records and in per
son with the Lunceford band,
when he and Trummy were still in
there, but this concert was the first
time we had heard Willie open up
and show what he could really do.
The routine went like this. In
the first portion, the whole group
of six instrumentalists, which in
eludes the rhythm section, is on
the stage and they steam through
what the program ?alls four “ensemble" numbers.
Three of these were group num
bers: Blues at the Philharmonic.
Tea for Two and Flying Home.
In all of them Willie’s alto solos
dominated, with Coleman Hawkins
adding his bit. Each man comes
in for solos with just the rhythm
backing him and then the tune
ends up with a short loud blast on
the original riff. Very simple ar
rangements and in case of some
solos, very tasteful.
Trummy Young was featured

first slow and then hot. -Very
pleasant and perhaps it might have
been even better if one of the
mikes had not been defective and
scheechings in vogue today) ana
it is easy to understand why the
Hawk is considered tops.
But I think I will have to grow
into liking him. At this stage he
doesn’t excite me.
Smith seemed to overdo his com
mercial slants, like hitting a thin
high note once in a while just for
effect (and the crowd roars) and
doing a slurring business in
phisticated Lady one time too
much for me. But these things are
very minor. Smith is a wonder on
his alto and provides more excitement than Johnny Hodges, for
example, whose style is limited to
one kind of sound. But it isn’t
practical to compare the two
styles since they are not aiming
at the same thing.
Besides I think Hodges is pretty
sensational, too, and his Sunny
Side of the Street work (Lionet
Hampton’s version) can hit me
any time.
But I’ll go into the concert
further in a second article. There
will be more about the concert aa whole and Norman Granz and
a backstage session that made up
greatly for our feeling of being
gypped somewhat.
Butch Watanabe
Readers of the Montreat Stan
dard weekly will have seen a
Canadian Nisei jazzman featured
in a pictorial writeup in the April
26 issue about a Montreal small
band led by colored trumpeter
Louis Metcalfe at the Cafe St.
Michel.
"The centre double-page spread
tells of how Metcalfe got together
a mixed jazz group, including
Negro, West Indian, French Cana
dian, Mexican, Swedish Canadian,
and Japanese Canadian musicians.

Next man on was the trombone
man, Trummy Young. Trummy, a
tall slender character, plays what
called “trumpet style” tromis
bone. That is, he plays fast and
furious and attacks like a trumpet. After the smooth nlce-tordancing-bui-otherwise-dull flow of
Tommy Dorsey, et cetera, Young
is refreshing.
He. like Willie Smith, was one
of the origina4 Jimmy Lunceford
nien and is featured in many of
that band's greatest records. He
wrote "Whatcha Know, Joe,”
remember?
Trummy played “Margie"’ as in
the Lunceford arrangement and
then sang it just as he did on the
record. It was a mild sensation.
The crowd lapped it. up.
Next came a vocal and solo on

I was concerned didn’t jell so

of
The Americans of Japanese
ancestry in Hawaii from December
7th on, lived under Army rule with
their neighbors, as American ci Lizens, as they had always. Despite
their racial background, they lived
without fear of serious discrimina
tion or worse, amidst the tensions
of war. It is not surprising that
the record now shows, notwith
standing the many false rumors
to the contrary, that there was no
serious sabotage nor any fifth
column coming from their ranks
to endanger the American war ef
fort.

On the contrary, the Americanborn Japanese in the islands, who
in 1940 accounted for three-quar
ters of jhe total residents of/Japa
nese ancestry, did. their full sharv
in supporting the United States.
The combat records of their sons
on the battlefields of Europe compare well with those of the Caucasians. As a racial group, they
showed that, in a democratic
country, which expected of them
the same degree of loyalty as
from other citizens, the ties of
birth were stronger than the ties
of ancestry.
“Hawaii’s Japanese: An Experiment in Democracy” by Andrew
W. Lind (Princeton University
Press) is a record of this test of
racial prejudice and racial retations. It is a record ihat shows
a great victory for democracy, fm
racial tolerance, for, indeed, con

of the Golden Rule.

NEYS, Ont.—On Monday, May 5,
the river drive of pulpwood logs
was started here in Neys. This
year the pile of pulpwood is so
low that it is expected that the
drive will not take long.
There has been an increase in
wages for the workers here this
year. Last year, the rates were $5
a day plus board. Fifty cents per
day was deducted for tax, making
a net of $4.50 per day. This year
the pay is $6.75, and even though
$1.20 is deducted for board, the
pay is still higher than previously.
A new plan for getting workers
is being tried by the Pigeon Tim
ber Co. this year. Students are to
be approached for pulpwood cut
ting and 200 are needed. Already
70-80 students have started workins: in the half month after the appeal was made. Even now an
average of four or five students
is coming in daily from the east
and west. Among them are some
14-year-olds and 15-year-olds. —

NEYS, Ont.—On Monday, May 5,
the river drive of pulpwood logs
was started here in Neys. This
year the pile of pulpwood is so
low that it is expected that the
drive will not take long.
There has been an increase in
wages for the workers here this
year. Last year, the rates were $5
a day plus board. Fifty cents per
day was deducted for tax, making
a net of $4.50 per day. This year
the pay is $6.75, and even though
$1.20 is deducted for board, the
pay is still higher than previously.
A new plan for getting workers
is being tried by the Pigeon Tim
ber Co. this year. Students are to
be approached for pulpwood cut
ting and 200 are needed. Already
70-80 students have started workins: in the half month after the appeal was made. Even now an
average of four or five students
is coming in daily from the east
and west. Among them are some
14-year-olds and 15-year-olds. —
