Senators Attempt to Abolish
Japanese Control Order Balked
As Omnibus Bill Gets Approval
. OTTAWA —The Japanese control measure—in the Om
nibus bill which was passed in the House of CommoriB^ori
May 1—ran into more trouble when it came up for consider
ation in the Senate last week.
After much controversy in the Senate, the bill was given
second reading apd passed on to the Senate banking and
commerce committee. Here, an attempt by Senator *T. A.
Crerar (L-Manitoba) to have the Japanese control order
deleted was defeated by a vote of 11 to 4, on May 9.
In moving the unsuccessful
amendment, Senator Crerar de
clared that the “only basis for
justification (of Japanese con
trol) is expediency,” and that
“this is precisely the way sup
pression of minorities started in
other countries.”
. “We can drift easily into a state
of mind where good, decent people
get habituated to this sort of
thing because their natural in
stincts of decency are weakened,"
the senator declared.
B.C. Senator Gives Warning
Leading the opposition to the
amendment, Senator John Farris
(L-British Columbia)>warned that
its passage would bring the whom.
Japanese problem to an "acute”
head.
Senator Farris said Prime Minis
ter King had given an unequivocal
promise in the 1945 election on
the Japanese question, and that
the people had sent men to Parlia-
ment from B.C. on that promise.
Senator John T. Haig (P.C.Manitoba). leader of his party qn_
the Senate, admitted that he was
‘‘terribly worried" about the ques
tion but asked that the govern
ment be given a year to “clean
this thing up.” He asked that it
find a solution because “none of
us like discrimination.”
Hard to Accept Broad Powers
. Senator Cairine Wilson (L-Ontario) said she found it hard to
accept the broad powers given the
Labor Minister.
Appearing before the committee,
Labor Minister Mitchell told her
“there will be no compulsion othei
than moving them from the pro
tected areas of British Columbia.”
Since the “desperate days” of
the war when the movement took
place, Canada had spent $14,000,000 in moving the Japanese across
the dominion despite opposition
from “most’ of the Premiers.”
“When they’re scattered they
are only a drop in the bucket,”
he said, adding “in the long run
the people of Canada will thank
us for what we’ve done.”

lost all claim to American citi

Farms Sold At Less
Than Assessment
OTTAWA.—Appearing before the Commons public ac
counts committee on May S, Frank G. Shears, director of the
Vancouver office of custodian of enemy property, disclosed,
that 741 small farms in Fraser valley belonging to Japanese
were sold to the Department of Veterans Affairs for re
turned men for $836,250, or about two-thirds of the assessed
valuation
The farms were appraised by
the Soldier Settlement Board at
$846,878: the assessed value was
$1,250,900.
The sale of 466 Japanese
properties in greater Vancou
ver realized $1,004,788. These
were appraised at $915,600, while
their
assessed
value
was
$1,183,313.
Most, of the 950 fishing boats
belongingwto Japanese were dis
posed of by the fishing vessels >
disposal committee, and 180 of the
poorer boats by the Custodian.
The committee and the custodian
together realized $1,400,000 from
the sale of the boats.
The chattels, mostly household
furniture, were sold by public auc
tion. Cost .of sorting the goods
and selling was around 22 percent,
which was deducted from the
sales and $650,000 was realized.
Mr. Shears contended that his
office did its utmost to protect
assets of Japanese forced to move
out, reported the Canadian Press.
“I know it has been charged
there was waste in disposing of
these properties,” he said, “but I
wish to say that we were con
fronted with a difficult situation
for which we had no precedent
and we followed the best meth
ods we could devise.”
He denied that any Japanese
property had been “sold for a
song."

Whonnock Man Given
$6.36 For Chattels
Valued At $723.45
OTTAWA.—The case of Naoichl
Karatsu of Whonnock. B.C.. who
received $6.36 for chattels he
valued at $723.45 was brought to
the attention of the Commons pub
lic accounts committee on May ..
The list of chattels, prepared by
Karatsu in the presence of an of
ficial of the custodian's oft ice be
fore evacuation, was submitted
to the committee by F. E. Jaenicke
((CCF-Kindersley).
Frank Shears, a director of tile
custodian's office, said the pres
ence of his official would indicate
the correctness of the goods listed
but not the owner's valuation.
The probable explanation, Mr.
Shears said, was that much or
the chattels had been stolen.
The receipt from the auction
sale of the chattels was $10.40,
according to letters filed, and
the expenses involved was $4.04, ‘
leaving the $6.36 wiiicn was
paid the owner.
Mr. Shears said there were in
dividual cases where owners of
chattels had been substantial
losers but he thought the number
was limited and was largely due
to thefts and vandalism.
Toronto Globe and Mail Editorial
On Property Sale Angers Minister
OTTAWA.—Because of an editorial in Wednesday’s'
Toronto Globe and Mail about the sale of Japanese evacuee
land to World War II veterans, Veterans Minister Ian Mac
kenzie told Parliament this week he would subpoena George
McCullagh, publisher of the paper, to appear before the
public accounts committee to substantiate charges claimed
in the editorial.
Denial was made by Walter
Tucker (Lib.-Rosthern). parlia
mentary assistant to Mackenzie
that the lands had been sold to
veterans at exorbitant prices.
Tucker said the appraisals by
Veterans Land Act officials had
been made in 1942 when “the
war was at its blackest for the
allies ... no one knew at the
time how long the war would
last but the fact those lands
have any value for re-establish
ment of Canadian veterans is
because Canada and the Allies
won the war, a fact which the
Globe and Mail seems to ignore
so far as Japanese- nationals are
concerned.”

New Emphasis on Education
One less-noticed by-product of evacuation has been the
increased emphasis Niseis are placing on education.
Numerous and varied factors which enter into consider
ation makes comparison difficult, but very probably, more
‘Niseis are attending universities today than would have
.been the case had evacuation not taken place.The reason is that better education and better job qualifi
cation is paying off to Niseis in eastern Canada as it never
had done in British Columbia.
5«C
#
*
The havoc wrought by the evacuation on the economic
security and prosperity of the first generation Japanese
has been dramatically evident. Yet equally significant,
■though less dramatic, is the fact that the evacuation has>
opened up a vast new field of job opportunities to Niseis.
Employment for Niseis in British Columbia was limited
for the most part to certain types of labor in the primary
industries, and better education did not mean-better joo
opportunities.
So marked was this job limitation that the older
Japanese, while by no means underestimating the value of
education, were sometimes skeptics when it came to the'
question of university training for their children.
The evacuation, however, brought new conditions.
According to a Nisei job survey recently conducted in
Toronto, it was found that the three university graduates
covered in the survey held jobs which they intend to follow
as permanent vocations. Their earnings averaged $175 a
month. High school graduates, too, were holding relatively
well-paid jobs. It was revealed, significantly, that Nisei girls
are entering a more varied sphere of employment instead ot
concentrating in domestic work.
What about racial discrimination? The Niseis no doubt
experienced it, mostly while in the process of finding employ
ment. Probably racial discrimination as a factor in
employment can never be entirely eliminated. But it doe&
vary with regions and conditions. It was bad in British
Columbia but Niseis in the east are finding it much less or
a. barrier.
It is important to note, too, that members of minority
groups tend to overestimate the discrimination factor and
to underestimate the value of other qualifications sought by
prospective employers. Officers of the Toronto Youth
Employment Centre hold the opinion that while some
minority group young people on the job hunt are convinced
that 90 percent of their problem lies in their nationality,
in reality only 10 percent of the problem lies in nationality
and the other 90 percent in "qualities found in every group
of young people between the ages of 16 to 21.’’

Terrible Fact
’ He had 12 happy unions to his

when his nephew—my
cousin—comes home on a repatria

away my uncle smiles his broad

for him. An American might say,
“Oh, oh, Number 13,” and .cross

to my uncle. My cousin’s 25, of
good health though frightfully
blackened by the tropical sun and
of a very good family. Bride-find

to work.
The “just-the-girl-for-you” hap
pens to be a daughter of a nearrelative, a third or fourth cousin.
It’s <. the simplest between relatives, my uncle says, but not this
time.- Things are too expensive

plain. They’re going to wait a
few years; things might .get
cheaper by then.

they?

started to quote current prices
on clothes and furniture as if my
uncle’s the finance’ minister, he
knows it’s time to retire.
. The next one looks like a sure
thing. Both parents and daughter
are willing and my cousin seems
doomed to married bliss at least.
A careful check of the family
lineage, however, reveals a ter
rible fact—the girl’s mother’s sis

ily's social stock isn’t too good.
It’s up to my uncle to break off
negotiations without hurting any

By this time it isn’t fun any

a very nice girl with just about
everything — schooling,

background, health. Ah, he says,
maybe this is it.

asks«»but is told he’d better judge
for himself, though he does get a

The government has promised that compensations will be provided,
but in wnat manner or to what extent are matters still to be decided.
Under the circumstances, the Co-operative Committee's brief must
fulfill two principle purposes. Il must first show that evacuees' claims
are reasonable and the losses sustained widespread and heavy enough
to warrant the establishment of adequate machinery to deal with the
problem. Such a provision will mean substantial financial outlay to the
government, and the brief must make clear that the expenditure is
•warranted.
Secondly, the brief must bring to light the history of the evacuation
and the different ways in which losses had been incurred, Emphasis
must* be laid on the fact that even where property sale or liquidation
of business was undertaken by the evacuee and not the custodian, the
evacuee should be eligible for compensation for the resulting loss. (The
Co-operative Committee's latest bulletin calls attention to the “serious
danger” that the government may make the terms of reference m
i*egard to the property losses too narrow.)
It has been obvious for a long time that the evacuees should gather
all possible information regarding evacuation losses.
When the
Prime Minister, early this year, spoke of compensating these losses, the
evacuees should have acted immediately to prepare their case so that
the promised compensation should be adequate and cover all justifiable
cases. Yet little attention was given the matter by evacuee organiza
tions. and practically no positive action taken except by the Japanese
Canadian Committee for Democracy which started its property losses’
survey last November. And this action, involving considerable expendi
ture. was undertaken by the JCCD without the certainty of adequate
financial support from other parts of Canada.

New Emphasis on Education
One less-noticed by-product of evacuation has been the
increased emphasis Niseis are placing on education.
Numerous and varied factors which enter into consider
ation makes comparison difficult, but very probably, more
‘Niseis are attending universities today than would have
.been the case had evacuation not taken place.The reason is that better education and better job qualifi
cation is paying off to Niseis in eastern Canada as it never
had done in British Columbia.
5«C
#
*
The havoc wrought by the evacuation on the economic
security and prosperity of the first generation Japanese
has been dramatically evident. Yet equally significant,
■though less dramatic, is the fact that the evacuation has>
opened up a vast new field of job opportunities to Niseis.
Employment for Niseis in British Columbia was limited
for the most part to certain types of labor in the primary
industries, and better education did not mean-better joo
opportunities.
So marked was this job limitation that the older
Japanese, while by no means underestimating the value of
education, were sometimes skeptics when it came to the'
question of university training for their children.
The evacuation, however, brought new conditions.
According to a Nisei job survey recently conducted in
Toronto, it was found that the three university graduates
covered in the survey held jobs which they intend to follow
as permanent vocations. Their earnings averaged $175 a
month. High school graduates, too, were holding relatively
well-paid jobs. It was revealed, significantly, that Nisei girls
are entering a more varied sphere of employment instead ot
concentrating in domestic work.
What about racial discrimination? The Niseis no doubt
experienced it, mostly while in the process of finding employ
ment. Probably racial discrimination as a factor in
employment can never be entirely eliminated. But it doe&
vary with regions and conditions. It was bad in British
Columbia but Niseis in the east are finding it much less or
a. barrier.
It is important to note, too, that members of minority
groups tend to overestimate the discrimination factor and
to underestimate the value of other qualifications sought by
prospective employers. Officers of the Toronto Youth
Employment Centre hold the opinion that while some
minority group young people on the job hunt are convinced
that 90 percent of their problem lies in their nationality,
in reality only 10 percent of the problem lies in nationality
and the other 90 percent in "qualities found in every group
of young people between the ages of 16 to 21.’’

An avei<i£f Nisei feels an in
:;ible barrier which keeps him
in feelin- quire at home among
Occidentals.
I ;hink my experiences are not
different
nV) Qlllci
c-i <■ from that of an
<« Xi<ei
When I was at
firerage
n-ibiic school in Nancouvei, I
wvd freely with the Italians, the
Ninians and a hundred and one
eiher races. But a gradual change
X? about during my high school
university days.
I did have some very close
Occidental friends during high
school, but these friendships be
anie more and more confined to
ear associations at. school. Once
•;yay from school ve moved in
different worlds. It was sad, but
ire was little that I or my
friends could do about it. The
forces of social, economic, and to
«ome extent cultural backgrounds
drove a wedge into oui i elation
ships.
I admit that a great deal of the
blame lies with me—due to my
background. Yet my relationship
jwith Occidentals is much better
than that of our parents, .and prob
ably the younger Niseis will go
one step better. I don’t know
:how far we can go on that road.
Shell of Reticence
Because of the personal rebuffs
they may have suffered plus the
general indictments against the
Japanese in the newspapers, the
■Niseis have shown a tendency to
retire into shells. Some Niseis
have rebelleti against this ten
dency and have gone to the other
extreme of cutting themselves off
from the Japanese community.
Others have developed a defensive
attitude, which in extreme cases
goes to pugnacity.
. Of course these characteristics
do not apply to Niseis alone. It
[is common to all racial minorities, and probably more marked among
certain other groups t£>an among
Niseis.
Hakujin Reaction
The unfortunate’ part of it is
that when a Nisei feels slightly
uncomfortable among Occidentals,
he is probably causing a similar
feeling of discomfort to the Occi
dentals. There is no free and easy
relationship.
1 remember an incident which
took place at a dance the Niseis
had thrown in a ghost town, and
a number of hakujin miners on
holiday had come to take a look.
The miners were feeling a little
high, yet not high enough to over
come a certain barrier which they
‘“h separated them from the
Niseis.
One of them started up a con
versation with me in a very
friendly way. He remarked how
attractive the girls were and said
chanted to ask them for dances,
ut, he said, he had been told that
,-itei girls were stuck-up and he
‘tared he would be turned down.
It all happened just a few days
after the New Year’s celebration
when everybody was still feeling
in a very festive mood indeed.
Now just about that time of the
year it is generally very cold, but,
that day seemed much colder than
any day around that time of the
year.
I am all bustled up in my over
coat and very carefully creeping
down the ice-covered street. I am
creeping slowly on account of it is
very slippery and I see no per
centage in falling because many a
guy has cracked a few bones for
not being careful.
*
*
>
It is on this day that 1 set my
eyes on Wagon George trotting
down the road not. minding the
slippery walk.
Now, Wagon
George is not his real name, in
fact, no one seems to know his
real name, but everyone calls him
Wagon George because he is con
stantly pulling a wagon behind, so
you can very well see that for
him to be called by Wagon George
is very fitting.
Wagon George is a very honest
guy and everybody likes him on
account.of his honesty as every
body likes honest people, well per
haps for a few exceptions like
Flipit Jackson or Charley the Runt
or any other characters like these
guys. Yrou see, these characters
are very, very.shady. Infacto, they
are always dodging the John Law
or else putting the vice on some
poor unfortunate victim.
* * *
Getting back to Wagon George,
I am taken aback no little to see
Wagon George has not got his
ever faithful wagon with him. I
The writer has condescended to
offer some enlightening instruc
tions as regards logging: a phase
of B.C.’s major industry. Atten
tion is particularly paid to the
operation of falling -trees. ’ The
writer will not feel plagiarized if
those of you who intend to work
in the bush in the near future
will take advantage of the instruc
tions offered below.
We shall suppose for tutorial
purposes that a fair sized tree is
to be felled. The first step will
be familiar to all those engaged
in bush work: mosquito repellent
is smeared over all exposed parts
of the body, special care being
given to the ears and nape, which
otherwise would attract mosqui
toes like magnets. The technical
term given to this operation is
“grooming up,” being likened to
the antics of ladies preparing
but they tell me that in the
majority of cases they are frozen
out with a cold verbal response.
“I ask these people. ‘Do you let
the matter drop there or do you
make a second attempt?’ Most of
them will try a second and third
time, but give up all too soon.
“It takes determined effort to
break the ’shell of discrimination
and prejudice’ that you men

WAGON GEORGE - A Story
By Hymie Yonker
can see he is very sad as he ap
proaches ami I am very much con
cerned over this stare of matters.
1 stop to ask him where his ever
faithful wagon might be.
Now Wagon George, he is not a
very brilliant individual, in fact,
some say he is a moron, but no
one tells him that because it
might hurt his feelings on account
oi even morons have feelings.
“1 have not got my wagon with
me today," Wagon George says re
morsefully, "for Betsy is very sick
and I am on my way to a doctor.’’
On hearing this 1 am indeed sur
prised because 1 have never heard
of George speaking of Betsy be
fore. As a matter of fact I do not
ever hear of Betsy before.
So I ask him who this chicken,
Betsy, is and what is wrong with
this jean. "Betsy, she is very
young,” Wagon George says to
me, "and I pick her up last night
up the road a piece.”
Then he tells me about poor
Betsy, her kind brown eyes that
looked so tired and weary; her
hair, all dirty and ruffled because
it is snowing very hard. Because
it is snowing very hard it is very
cold lying in the snow and she is
very cold. In short I find out that
Betsy is a very sick doll. Indeed
it is a very sad story and I am
moved very much so I undertake
to go to the doctor for him.
* * *
When I hit Croaker Cotten’s
high class joint, 1 find him in
dulged in a fast game of poker
with several other prominent citi
zens. Upon hearing my story, he
too is very much moved. In fact,
he is moved so much that he drops
out holding a very good hand, a
hand that Highball Jonesy would
pray for if he is sitting in on a
session. I am very much surprised
because Doc Cotten could have
collected a handsome number of
fish with his'line baited with such
a bait.
Anyways, we go immediately to
Wagon George’s shack which is
down the alley off Stanley Street.
Stanley Street is not the upper
crust district, but to those who
live there, it is home to them no
little. Wagon George is waiting
at the door for us and is very
happy’to see us coming, especially
Croaker Cotten. We go inside
but much to our surprise we
find no doll that looks like
this poor Betsy. Doc Cotten asks
where this poor Betsy might be
and Wagon George points toward
the old Quebec heater that is sit
ting in the corner of h^s little
room.
v
Now, from the beginning of this
story, 1 am surprised by many
things. In fact it seems I have
been taken aback by every turn
of events, but this is by far the
biggest surprise I encounter. In

themselves for night revelry. The
fallers are now ready to proceed
with the undercut.
The authorized organ of the
IWA, “Timber of Canada,” de
fines the conventional “undercut”
in these unmistakable terms;
"The undercut consists of a cut
in an upright tree having the
shape of two intersecting planes
enclosing a dihedral angle of about
one radian with the line of inter
section passing a distance within
the tree specified by Gauss’ law.”
Inasmuch as the application of
Gauss’ law introduces remarkable
complications (in more ways than
one), and is beyond the IQ rating
of four owned to by’ the average
logger, an approximate method is
generally used in conjunction
with a safety factor of sixty-five
or so. Actually, the latter dimen
sion is simply-ah-estimated, as
fallers will sheepishly admit.
It is seen that since the vertical
height of the undercut is nowhere
specified in the definition, any
arbitrary height may be chosen.
In general, it is preferable to
make the undercut high, thus
forcing your partner to stretch;
which is very stimulating and
healthful—especially if your part
ner is. a short fellow. In case this
procedure should antagonize your
partner, you need only to refer to
this article which, beyond doubt,
is the sole authority on the mat
ter.
When the undercut is com
pleted, a horizontal kerf is sunk
almost from the opposite semi
diameter. Ordinarily, when this
stage of falling a tree is arrived
at, the tree, like a Saturday night
pedestrian, having nothing to keep
it upright, is constrained to topple
in some direction. Even experi
enced fallers, due to various exist
ing circumstances, cannot in
fallibly predict the direction taken
by a falling tree; with “amateurs,”
all that* can be said conclusively
is that the direction will be dozen-
wards, but even this cannot be
depended on to be rigorously true.
Experienced fallers occasionally
let the tree fall backwards to
break the monotony. Often as not,
such a tree will fall amidst the
skidding crew, who will be over
joyed to have a tree laid so con
veniently at their feet. However,
this retrograde method of falling
was looked on with disfavor by
many a logging employer during
the labor shortage of the war
period. The novice, notwithstand
ing, will find it an advantage to
direct the tree at a nearby stump
so that it will break open, re
vealing whether the wood was
sound or rotten. With conscien
tious practise and experience, a
pair of fallers may succeed even
tually in breaking every tfee in to
a half dozen pieces.
Smoking is a ritual following
each felled tree. So strictly is
this observed in logging gangs
where pay is on the hourly basis
that the ritual is truly an insepar
able part of the work. In fact,
where the fallers are young and
rebellious, it is not too much to
say that most of the time in the
woods is expended in propagating
the glow of a reeking weed.
There is a historical note of in
terest with regard to smoking. It
was in 1S92 that the Dominion
Forestry Regulations caused great
consternation in woods every
where on account of the prohibi
tion of cigarette smoking between
July and October. Quite naturally,
in order to obviate the disuse of
cigarettes, substitutes such as
chewing tobacco, benzedrine, ad
renalin, and liquor were tried with
no general success; none of these
equalling the combined mosquito
repelling, heartbeat - stimulating,
time-consuming properties of the
common cigarette.
In the same year near the end
of summer, a savior appeared with
a simple formula mooted to be
the corner of Wagon George's
little room where Croaker and I
look, we see a small dog lying by
the stove. But Croaker Cotten io
a very understanding man indeed.
He can see that Wagon George is
very much upset over poor Betsy’,
the dog, and when Wagon George
is very much upset, so is Croaker
Cotten. So, without a moment to
take off his overcoat and not
minding to get his sharp-creased
pants dirty. Doc gets to work.
1 do not know how long Doe
Cotten works over poor Betsy or
what he is doing, but I just sit
quietly with Wagon George and
wait. Out of his black satchel
Croaker extracts very many* Queer
looking gadgets which I have
never seen before. Much to my’
surprise, he only extracts these
gadgets but never uses them.
*
»
Finally. Doe Cotten gets up and
turns to us with a very big smile
on his face. In fact his smile
covers his whole face and I can
not see a bare spot anywhere.
"Wagon George,” Croaker says,
"just keep Betsy covered and very’
warm and before you know it you
will have a. very frisky Betsy.”
Wagon George jumps for joy’ and
1 jump up not to be outdone by
him.
. i’
"But,” continues Croaker with
the same grin on his puss, “you
had better name Betsy, ‘Timothy’,
because Betsy will not do for
him!”
J
Of course Wagon George does
not understand but I do, and be
sides Wagon George likes Timothy7
better than Betsy anyway.
capable of replacing the forbidden
cigarette.
The only material
needed was a piece of paper three
inches by’ one, which was subse
quently rolled into a hollow tube
nearly the size of a pencil. This
tube then was filled with a certain
weed grown in eastern America
completing a cigarette substitute
called a “fag,” which was sup
posed to be held between the lips
—unlit. To many loggers, the
unlit “fag” seemed hardly equal to
the lit cigarette. But it was not
long before some of these fags
became lit in the very mouths of
the loggers by incredible “acci
dents,” as it were. The advent of
this invention was heralded then
by’ universal success, and the pro
phet w’ho brought it forth was
acclaimed a saint henceforth
sacred to all Canadian woodsmen.
When a bush-worker encounters
bodily injury such as cutting a toe.,
being struck by a falling branch,
or being hit by’ a large mosquito,
it is to this saint that he offers
loud and fervent prayers. The
seriousness of his supplications
can be easily seen from the vehe
mence in his voice and the fre
quent references made to a. large
number of other deities during
the course of his prayer.

An avei<i£f Nisei feels an in
:;ible barrier which keeps him
in feelin- quire at home among
Occidentals.
I ;hink my experiences are not
different
nV) Qlllci
c-i <■ from that of an
<« Xi<ei
When I was at
firerage
n-ibiic school in Nancouvei, I
wvd freely with the Italians, the
Ninians and a hundred and one
eiher races. But a gradual change
X? about during my high school
university days.
I did have some very close
Occidental friends during high
school, but these friendships be
anie more and more confined to
ear associations at. school. Once
•;yay from school ve moved in
different worlds. It was sad, but
ire was little that I or my
friends could do about it. The
forces of social, economic, and to
«ome extent cultural backgrounds
drove a wedge into oui i elation
ships.
I admit that a great deal of the
blame lies with me—due to my
background. Yet my relationship
jwith Occidentals is much better
than that of our parents, .and prob
ably the younger Niseis will go
one step better. I don’t know
:how far we can go on that road.
Shell of Reticence
Because of the personal rebuffs
they may have suffered plus the
general indictments against the
Japanese in the newspapers, the
■Niseis have shown a tendency to
retire into shells. Some Niseis
have rebelleti against this ten
dency and have gone to the other
extreme of cutting themselves off
from the Japanese community.
Others have developed a defensive
attitude, which in extreme cases
goes to pugnacity.
. Of course these characteristics
do not apply to Niseis alone. It
[is common to all racial minorities, and probably more marked among
certain other groups t£>an among
Niseis.
Hakujin Reaction
The unfortunate’ part of it is
that when a Nisei feels slightly
uncomfortable among Occidentals,
he is probably causing a similar
feeling of discomfort to the Occi
dentals. There is no free and easy
relationship.
1 remember an incident which
took place at a dance the Niseis
had thrown in a ghost town, and
a number of hakujin miners on
holiday had come to take a look.
The miners were feeling a little
high, yet not high enough to over
come a certain barrier which they
‘“h separated them from the
Niseis.
One of them started up a con
versation with me in a very
friendly way. He remarked how
attractive the girls were and said
chanted to ask them for dances,
ut, he said, he had been told that
,-itei girls were stuck-up and he
‘tared he would be turned down.
It all happened just a few days
after the New Year’s celebration
when everybody was still feeling
in a very festive mood indeed.
Now just about that time of the
year it is generally very cold, but,
that day seemed much colder than
any day around that time of the
year.
I am all bustled up in my over
coat and very carefully creeping
down the ice-covered street. I am
creeping slowly on account of it is
very slippery and I see no per
centage in falling because many a
guy has cracked a few bones for
not being careful.
*
*
>
It is on this day that 1 set my
eyes on Wagon George trotting
down the road not. minding the
slippery walk.
Now, Wagon
George is not his real name, in
fact, no one seems to know his
real name, but everyone calls him
Wagon George because he is con
stantly pulling a wagon behind, so
you can very well see that for
him to be called by Wagon George
is very fitting.
Wagon George is a very honest
guy and everybody likes him on
account.of his honesty as every
body likes honest people, well per
haps for a few exceptions like
Flipit Jackson or Charley the Runt
or any other characters like these
guys. Yrou see, these characters
are very, very.shady. Infacto, they
are always dodging the John Law
or else putting the vice on some
poor unfortunate victim.
* * *
Getting back to Wagon George,
I am taken aback no little to see
Wagon George has not got his
ever faithful wagon with him. I
The writer has condescended to
offer some enlightening instruc
tions as regards logging: a phase
of B.C.’s major industry. Atten
tion is particularly paid to the
operation of falling -trees. ’ The
writer will not feel plagiarized if
those of you who intend to work
in the bush in the near future
will take advantage of the instruc
tions offered below.
We shall suppose for tutorial
purposes that a fair sized tree is
to be felled. The first step will
be familiar to all those engaged
in bush work: mosquito repellent
is smeared over all exposed parts
of the body, special care being
given to the ears and nape, which
otherwise would attract mosqui
toes like magnets. The technical
term given to this operation is
“grooming up,” being likened to
the antics of ladies preparing
but they tell me that in the
majority of cases they are frozen
out with a cold verbal response.
“I ask these people. ‘Do you let
the matter drop there or do you
make a second attempt?’ Most of
them will try a second and third
time, but give up all too soon.
“It takes determined effort to
break the ’shell of discrimination
and prejudice’ that you men
tioned. But it can- be done, I
know.

Senate Approves Omnibus Bill
(Continued from Page One)
any Canadians now citizens of
this country.
Senator Roebuck charged that
there “is a striking resemblance
between the status of the Jews
under Hitler and of the Japanese
in Canada.”
He said war-seized Japanese
property had been “scandalously .
sold at sacrifice prices, He de
manded an investigation of the
sale of their rights and properties, and, as ‘ well, just compensation for their unnecessary’
suffering at the government a
hands.
As Good As Other Canadians
Senator Buchanan said he had
found Japanese Canadians as
good citizens as any other Cana
dians. During the war they’ hau
engaged in no crime and had
manifested nothing but loyalty, aU
though Canada did not trust them.
He agreed that the order was
"entirely contrary to liberal
ism.” Japanese yout’n had been
taught in Canadian schools that
Canada stood for certain high
principles and “now we contradiet those principles.”
Senators W. E. Euler (L.Ontario), R. B. Horner (P.C.-Saskatchewan) and Norman Lambert
(L.-Ontario) also joined the pro
test against the principle of an
order which would allow tne
Labor Minister to direct Japanese
Canadians where to reside and to
work and what money to work toi.
Only Wants Fair Share
After listening to two days ui
criticism of the measure’s “unde
mocratic principle,” Senator Stan
ley McKean (L.-British Columbia; said that British Columbia “is as
Christian as any other province,"
but it wanted its fair share of
Japanese and no more.
He declared that the war had
borne out suspicions that Japan
ese spies were masquerading as
fishermen on the Canadan coast
and had built up a knowledge of
its inlets and harbors greater than
Canadians themselves had.
But the worst of all, according
to Senator McKean, were the
Canadian - born Japanese who
were so cocky after Singapore
and were preparv.^ to run things
here. If the Japs come back nov<
you’ll have worse than dis
crimination; you could have
riots and bloodshed.
The Omnibus bill is expected to
pass the Senate and come into
effect by the May ■ 15 deadline,
when the temporary extension of
the Emergency Powers Act ex
pires.
"Reviewing the News"
(Continued from Page One)
grievance for being deprived ar
bitrarily of their land which was
in many cases their only security
and means of livelihood, and sym
bolized long years of hard work
and saving.
What is forgotten too easily is
the fact that the Japanese did not
ask to be moved out from the
coast, and most of them could see
little sense—either from military
or security viewpoint—in the eva
cuation. On the other hand they
felt they were the butt of dis
crimination because they were the
only race singled out for evacua
tion.
Neither did they ask to have
their properties sold. In fact me;
refused to surrender their titles
to the land but that difficulty was
got around by’ the custodian
through the war measures act.
(Incidentally the legality of thesesales is still under jurisdiction.)
The. evacuees had expected their
lands to be kept in trust, just as
the LT.S. government did for the
Japanese Americans.
The Ukrainian Labor Farmer
Temple Association suffered simi
lar treatment from the custodian
in the matter of property. Their
property was confiscated and sold,
it is claimed, at fair prices.
Later, but still during the war,
a claims commission was set up
to make adjustments. Sometimes
the lands were returned, and in
other cases the organization re
ceived payments which were sev
eral times the amount of. the ori
ginal selling price.

Japanese representatives will be

Mr.
agreed there had
been considerable theft of Japan
ese chattels before the custodian
could take over properties .and
storage places had been broken
into and thefts and vandalism had
resulted after goods came into his
possession.
“We had chattels stored in 7.000
different places and would have
required 7.000 watchmen to pro
tect them.”
• The 22.000 evacuated Japanese
owned 1,700 parcels of real estate.
There were divided into three
groups, those in Vancouver, those
in other urban municipalities and
the farm lands, chiefly in the
Fraser valley.
When the order first came for
the Japanese to move there was
considerable confusion and many
stored chattels with other Japan
ese families or white neighbors
which entailed a great deal of
sorting. They could file voluntary
statements of their assets, but
these often were inaccurate and
almost always incomplete, so it
became exceedingly difficult to
credit the rightful owners when
chattels were sold.

This should have read: ". . .

he sold parts of the land to private

Regret was expressed for the
error but with this change, the

Scots Wha Hae
The Scots are a bonnie folk..
They are a proud people and a
friendly people. Canada owes a
lot to the Scots who have come to
make their homes here, and as
ample proof of this, the history
of the Dominion is much- embel
lished with Scottish names.
Even today’ this is so. Reports
that emanate from the press gal
lery of the Dominion Parliament
include many names of noble Scot
tish origin. Those most familiar
to our ears are perhaps Angus
Maclnnis,
Ian Mackenzie and
Thomas Reid. Other Scots who
have been prominent in debates
on the Japanese Canadians have
included Alistair Stewart and Wil
liam Bryce.
