The Moose Jaw Evacuees
Much attention has been given in recent weeks to the
financial and material loss resulting from rhe avacuation;
but it should also be noted that_the evacuation has had an
impairing effect on the mental outlook of some evacuees.
The latter factor seems to be one of the underlying diffi­
culties at the Moose Jaw hostel, where a small group of
evacuees and ex-internees have refused to leave the hostel
despite numerous placement offers from Department of
' Labor officials.
There are two sides to the problem. On the one hand,
the officials are doing their best to push tne resettlement
of the hostel evacuees and to £lose the hostel at the earliest
possible date. Individual interviews have been conducted
with the evacuees and employment opportunities suggested.
Those who were deemed incapable of self-support have been
sent back to the government-maintained community at New
Denver, B.C., and the officials believe it is in the best inter­
ests of the others to seek resettlement at the earliest possible
opportunity.

Wife-Swappers
Thirty-seven miles from Nanai­
mo and less than five miles from
the fashionable resort of Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island,
a aroup of Doukhobors started a
new colony last year. There were
180 of them—SO women, 60 men
and 40 children.
Originally, they belonged to the
Sons of Freedom sect and lived
in interior B.C. But the ISO split
with the others on the question of
education.
The Sons of Freedom were op­
posed to education; the rebels,
being progressive-minded, wanted
to send their children to school to
“become real Canadians.” So they7
packed up and left the others to
start a new settlement on Van­
couver Island.
Last week news leaked out
which indicated that the new sect
was not so progressive after all.
They7 allegedly7 practiced wifesharing by rotation.

ters, and finally, be able and ready
to use force if necessary.

As a positive alternative to a
communist world empire, the U.S.
must offer a non-communist world
federation in which the U.S.
assumes the leading role.
This democ ?atic world feder
tion must be promoted by ti
U.S. through a combination o
pres ures ana concessions.
In the western hemisphere, no
fundamental political change
needed, as long as the nations
guarantee their resources to the
cause of the Americas and oppose
communism. It is not necessary
to insist that nations in the world
federation copy the U.S. political
system and institutions.

As a concrete step, the U.S.
should offer common citizenship
and political union to Great B ri­
tain and the British dominions,
Next,
an European federation
should be formed, under AngloAmerican concession and compul­
sion, and brought into the world
federation.
To pursue this program, the U.S.
must first suppress communism at
home; while suppression of any
political thought is undesirable, in
this case the dangers of non-sup­
pression outweighs the dangers of
suppression.

The immediate aim of this fed­
eration is to form a protective
association of nations and people
for a restricted purpose of con­
trolling atomic weapons and thus
preventing war, with the actual
atomic monopoly’ held, at first, by
the United States. This organiza­
tion could develop toward the
fuller freedoms and a genuine,
world state, in which Russia will
eventually’ participate, by replac­
ing their leaders with, a democra­
tic government. And in the mean­
time, the power contained in this
federation will hold communism
in check.

Life’s Comments
Mr. Burnham's book was con­
densed in the Life Magazine, and
followed up by’ an editorial headed
“Burnham's program is a good one
only if freedom, not power, is
America’s goal.”
Life agrees with^ Burnham s
basic premises, disagreed on some
details. But on the objectives,
Life said the “character” of the
world government was more im­
portant than “how soon we get it."
Life thinks America’s task is
to “hold the door of history open”
for the kind of world government
that lovers of freedom can approve
__ in other words encourage the
development of “retarded coun­
tries and influence them toward
co-operative world order, instead
of compelling them to join the
American sponsored world feder­
ation.

on all sides. This development
was not wholly unintentional. I
must confess. Yup. I'm cunning
like a fox.

There were times when my at­

of the talks, although I do not
I missed any important
points,
But I'm sure that the
others in the discussion will fully
understand my straying from com­
plete concentration. The distrac­
tion was somewhat overpowering.
Post-session comments included
one about how much nicer it was
to have a bevy of beauties present
along with the stimulating talk
and also some things very com­
plimentary about Nisei girls hav­
ing lots on the ball as far as looks
and smartness in dressing and
grooming went. I heartily agreed.

Frustration

(Proving that there is nothing more fearsome as enraged women
taking up cudgels in defense of their sex. one page of the current
issue of “The Guiding Light,” Toronto Young Buddhist Society publi­
cation. is taken up with rebuttals to an article in a previous issue
suggesting that Nisei girls were “boring company*.
The male who iS
the target for these sharp claws is reportedly heading for the hihs
of Old Wyoming.)

Little Boys Should Be . . .
May this Nisei miss draw rhe
attention ot’ the nameless writer
who “stuck his neck out" in the
last issue by insinuating that we
Nisei misses are “boring com­
pany.”
I readily admit that not all of
us can call ourselves bluestockings
with the natural ability to emit
choice words and bubble over with
sparkling conversation, but the
immobile expression with which
the average Nisei boy greets an
average Nisei miss cannot be re­
commended as an aid to entran­
cing dialogue. After the custom­
ary salutation is offered—usually
a curt “hi" and a toss of his head,
he shuts up like a stubborn clam
behind a weak smile and expects
the poor Nisei miss and her hack­
neyed expressions to carry on the
chit-chat in this morguish atmo­
sphere.

To break this embarrassing
silence, she resorts to asking the
silly questions such as “How long
have you been in Toronto?" “What
do you do?" "Do you like it here?”
or something in that general pat­
tern. realizing full well that any­
one from a moron to a genius
could answer without undue effort.
To these queries she usually re­
ceives a ten-word answer and
another dead silence. . . .

Writing about girls in these
columns is a foolhardy thing at
the best, judging from recent ex­

Count Ten
My first reaction to the infuriat­
ing article that appeared in the
last edition was that of boiling in­
dignation and with my temper at
a boiling point. I penned a few
scathing retorts.
I feel justified in claiming that
the absolutely obnoxious piece of
flesh was masquerading behind
the supposedly great, “man” had
the audacity to write such a
misrepresentation (which he prob­
ably considers a masterful stroke
df literary effort) not because he
actually’ believed such absurdity
but just to see how many of the
supposed “inferior’ ’species would
retaliate.
Well, here’s one sucker!
And we are feather-brained and
cannot converse intelligently? But
instead of resorting to incoherent
grunts and gurgles, why’ doesn’t
he steer the conversation along
more interesting channels?
Perhaps we have the privilege
to start the conversation, but. men
think, it. is their privilege to put
a damper on it. .
Conceit, tactlessness, selfish­
ness. mannerlessness are the prin­
cipal components of man today.
And I suggest that before they de­
nounce girls? for their supposed
shortcomings, count ten—teh of
their own.

Interview With
Emperor
In a 40-minute interview with
the Japanese emperor on May 27,
Roger N. Baldwin, national direc­
tor of the American Civil Liber­
ties Union and special representa­
tive of the JACL in Japan, told
Emperor Hirohito of the brilliant
record of the 442nd Combat Team
and other American Niseis in the
war. Baldwin was invited by the
emperor to discuss the present
status of persons of Japanese
ancestry in the U.S.

PERSONAL NOTES FROM NEAR ANDFAB

Nisei Delegates Take Part;
(Continued From Page One)
said that the problem had to be
solved by getting across to the
people that their grounds for dis­
crimination was not valid. He
pointed out the danger of minor­
ity7 groups being used as bogies
during an economic depression.
A member of the Catholic Action
Group, after listing examples of
cultural differences which create
a problem, stressed the impor­
tance of co-operation on a national
level. , Another member of - this
group stated that the Anglo-Cana­
dian group tended to act on the
assumption that
other
racial
groups would eventually disap­
pear. He questioned the cultural
value of folk customs and lore in
a country7 distant from the origi­
nal background.
threat to democracy

The Canadian Jewish Congress
delegates presented their difficul­
ties in detail and concluded with
the appeal that since discrimina­
tion is a threat to Canadian de­
mocracy7 the Commission recom­
mended both legislation and edu­
cation to combat the problem.
The JCCD delegates acknow­
ledged the fact that in spite of
restrictive controls on Japanese
Canadians, their problems were
becoming gradually less acute as
compared to those facing the
Negro and the Jew.
In summarizing, Professor Hen­
dry said the needs were first to
document the evidence, then to

find the root of the symptoms of
prejudice, and finally to educate
and to legislate against the point
of discrimination.
TOO MANY LOOPHOLES
During the discussion on legis­
lation, Professor Auld cautioned
the delegates that unless a law is
carefully7 formulated, there would
be too many loop holes for viola­
tion or misinterpretation.
Dr. Manfred Saaiheimer stated
that law itself was a potent educational force, The very fact that
certain things are prescribed or
proscribed by law moulds the habit
of behaviour. Anti-discrimination
law may7 be blunt, but its very’
existence has done good.

FAIR EMPLOYMENT
PRACTICE
He stated further that legisla­
tion
outlawing
discrimination
should be encouraged, and there
should be an educational cam­
paign for such things as a fair em­
ployment practice.
The inter-cultural commission
reached the following conclusions:
(a) that legislation is to be en­
couraged to outlaw discrimina­
tory practices; (b) that provincial
legislation is specifically needed
to ensure fair employment prac­
tices; and (c) that a standing
committee should be rormed, wrui
representation from the Social
Science Research Council, for the
purpose of interpreting cultural relations, and educating the public.

Moose Jaw Hostellers Resist
(Continued from Page One)
by hostel officials next morning
and are now kept in the super­
visor's office.

JUST ANOTHER PLOT
•' This incident, however, has been
interpreted by the evacuees as justanother plot to move them oiit of
the hostel on a voluntary7 basis,
like the notices which had an­
nounced the hostel closure.

Left in the hostel at this writ­
ing (June 1) are 11 families total­
ling 61 persons and about 24 sin­
gle ex-internees.
Six families, numbering 31 per­
sons, have indicated they would
refuse any employment until the
government provides them with
some definite assurance of future
security. The single ex-internees
have also turned down all employ­
ment offers.

The other five families have
agreed to accept outside employ­
ment, but their departure is being
delayed due to illness or other
special reasons.

COMMISSIONER VISITS
The commissioner of Japanese
placement, J. F. MacKinnon, came
here for the second time on May27 and left for Vancouver again
on May 30 without announcing any
change in policy.

J

While at the hostel, he interviewed a few of the evacuee families but. it is believed, he considered it impossible to do any­
thing more for those who refused
to co-operate with the Department
of Labor policy.
uees may choose between accept­
ing outside employment or moving
to any Department of Labor hostel
in eastern Canada. No one has so
far applied for. transfer.

with the outcome of his second
visit, and are apparently deter­
mined to await the next move of
the Department.
Also visiting Moose Jaw re­
cently7 in an attempt to persuade
the evacuees to move out were
Rev. S. Ikuta of Raymond and
Rev. Y. Kawamura of Picture
Butte, Alta. When interviewed
before leaving, they7 stated that
their mission was a complete
failure.

So far, the only7 action taken by
the Department against those re­
fusing to move out is to require
them to pay for their children’s
transportation to school, while
children of families awaiting resettlement are being taken to
school by hostel officials.

CHILDREN PLAY BALL
Meanwhile, the children at the
hostel are not worrying too much
about the future, and are busy
playing baseball and tennis after
school hours.
It is believed that the federal
Department of Labor's Japanese
division has a lease on tire hostel
building until the end of July.
