Repatriated Niseis May Return To Canada
Three Claims on First Day

File Claims Early

Property Loss Hearing
Begins in Kamloops
KAMLOOPS, B.C.—The inquiry of the one-man Royal
Commission into Japanese property losses got under wav
this week with the first claimants appearing before the com­
mission—Justice Henry I. Bird—at the Kamloops court­
house.

Three claimants were heard on
Monday. Dec. 8, the first day of
the hearing. They were:
Haruo Ichikawa, of East Lillooet. who said the custodian
sold his greenhouse, which he
valued at $7,990, for $2,669.

Yoshinobu Inouye, formerly a
truck farmer at Mission City,
who received $741 for his 11?.cre farm valued by him at
$2,500.

Mrs. Ito Imada, who said her
farm, worth $7,935, was sold by
the custodian for $3,038.

Legal argument was concerned
chiefly with the accuracy of the
claimants’ valuations. Col. John
W. G. Hunter, counsel for the
federal government, contended
that the claimants were merely
'■guessing” at the value.
II. J. McMaster and J. A. Mc­
Lennan, both of Vancouver, repre­
sented the claimants.
It is reported that the hearing
at Kamloops will adjourn after 29
claims have been heard. It will be
resumed in Kamloops in January
io hear other claimants living in
this area.

Procedure Discussed
At Preliminary Hearings
VANCOLWER. — The following
important points were discussed
at the preliminary hearing of the
Japanese property inquiry com­
mission held in Vancouver - on
Dee. 3.
(1) Mr. Justice H. I. Bird ruled
that he was not empowered to
hear claims regarding the 950 fish­
ing boats sold by the Fishing Ves­
sels Disposal Committee which
was headed by Mr. Justice Sidney
Smith. He will, however, hear
claims on the 110 boats sold by
the Custodian.
Andrew Brewin, counsel for the
claimants, said he will appeal to

the federal government to have
the commission’s power broad­
ened to include claims in both
classifications.
(2) Counsel for the federal gov­
ernment, J. W. G. Hunter, claimed
that the commission should ex­
clude claims on property "lost,
destroyed, or -stolen” before they
could be brought under the con­
trol of the custodian.

The counsels for the claimants
argued that in some cases Japa­
nese properties which were "sub­
ject” to the custodian's control,
were lost, destroyed, or stolen be­
fore the custodian could take phy­
sical control.

Replying to this contention, Mr.
Hunter agreed that in some cases
personal hardship might result
in such claims, and he might in
such case-s agree to modify his
contention that lost and stolen
property claims should not be
heard. But he added- that if all
such claims should be heard, "cer­
tain hardships to the taxpayers
might occur.”
Although the commissioner did
not give hi-s ruling on the matter
immediately, the counsels for the
claimants were hopeful that their
views would be considered favorably.
(3) Considerable time was taken
up by the question of whether
Japanese controlled corporations
should be heard by the commis­
sion.
Air. Justice Bird ruled that he
would heai- corporation claims,
but added that he would reserve
the right to say whether they are
admissible until after they have
been heard.
The number of these claims will
not be large—five or six—but they
are believed to represent the
greatest value of all claims sub­
mitted.

Joint Committee's Statement
Chaibitged m Sooth Alberta
RAYMOND, Alta. — The Ray­
mond Citizens’ Association and
tne Coaldale Fujoka issued a joint
statement this week charging in­
accuracy in the statement of
southern Alberta Joint CommitGe published in the Nov. 15 issue
('f J he New Canadian.

। 1 he Joint Committee said that
Jn the matter of retaining G. A.
Virtue as legal counsel, objection
"as voiced by the Raymond dele­
gate but that the committee voted
L0 letain Mi-. Virtue despite this
objection.)

The Raymond-Coaldale state­
ment charged, however,
that
^legates from neither organiza­
tion were present at the meeting
^hen this decision was reached,
r,nd therefore the action was

taken by only a section of the
Joint Committee delegates.
The statement voiced opposi­
tion to the independent action
preferred by certain delegates,
and stated that in matters which
concern many like the propertv
question, the co-operation of all
Japanese Canadians across Cana­
da was essential.
The statement said Raymond
and Coaldale were opposed to use
of special revised claims forms
and the earlier revised survey
forms for Alberta.
The statement added that Coal­
dale and Raymond groups were
using the claims forms prepared
by the Co-operative Committee
and had completed filing their
forms through the Lethbridge Co­
operative Committee’s counsels.

Warns JCCA
TORONTO. — All claimants
who have not filed claims and
intend to do so should make
every effort to file them at the
earliest
possible date, the
national JCCA announced this
week.

The JCCA warned that the
deadline for filing in B.C. is
December 31, 1917, and for all
other provinces, January 15.
1948.
Should the claims not be
filQd xvithin the deadlines, they
may be rejected by the com­
missioner unless a very good
reason for late filing is given,
the JCCA said.

Montreal Internees
Sue Government
For Damages
MONTREAL.—Claims for dam­
ages totalling §61,064 were con­
tained in two petitions filed in
Exchequer Court in Ottawa, by
Salustre Lavery on behalf of two
Montrealers who were interned
during the war, the Canadian
Press reported Dec. 8.
' The damages sought are for lost
wages, humiliation, loss of prop­
erty and hardship to their fami­
lies.
The petitioners
claim
the
RCMP raided their homes and
arrested them, and they were
treated as common prisoners at
the Montreal jail before being in­
terned without any specific com­
plaint against them, and without
ever appearing before a legally
constituted court of justice.
Mr. Lavery said the petitions
bring to eight the number of such
claims and others are expected
to follow from Canadian citizens
and persons of foreign origin of
Montreal area who were interned
during the war.

Chicago Passes Law
Against Racial
Discrimination
CHICAGO, Ill. — Chicago's city
council has passed an ordinance
banning religious or racial dis­
criminating by word, publication
or violent action.
The American Municipal asso­
ciation reports that the ordinance
replaces one enacted earlier which
has been criticized as poorly
framed and subject to misuse.
Penalties under the new law are
§200 fines and six months in jail.

At Canadian Mission in Tokyo
Whether Niseis now in Japan (who went there before the war
or who were repatriated) can return to Canada or not is a mat­
ter of some concern to Japanese Canadians. The latest report op
this question by George Tanaka,_ executive secretary of the
national JCCA, was received by The New Canadian shortly before
deadline.

The report follows;

"I wish to report that a letter
has been received on this subject
from the Deputy Minister of
Mines and Resources, H. L. Keenleyside, dated Dec. 3, 1947.
"We are advised that Canadian
citizens of Japanese ancestry,
whether natural born or natur­
alized, are re-admissible to Can­
ada.
"The Deputy Minister draws our
attention to the fact that under
oi'der-in-council P.C. .10773 of Nov.
26, 1942, Canadian citizens of
Japanese ancestry, natural born
and naturalized, who left Canada
under a wartime exchange agree­
ment, are deprived of their Ca­
nadian citizenship; and also that
under order-in-council P.C. 7356 of
December 15, 1945, naturalized Ca­
nadians of Japanese ancestry re­
patriated to Japan after the. war
under provisions of P.C. 7355 of
Dec. 15, 1945, are also deprived
of their Canadian citizenship.
"The certificates of any natur­
alized persons long absent from
Canada may also be subject to
revocation.
"The Deputy Minister also ad­
vises in his letter of Dec. 3, 19-17,
that Canadian citizens of Japa­
nese ancestry in Japan should
apply to the Canadian Liaison
Mission, 16 Omote-Machi,3 Chome,
Akasaka-Ku, Tokyo, Japan, for
their travel documents should
they wish to return to Canada.
"Also, applications for return
to Canada by Japanese subjects
claiming retention of Canadian
domicile may be submitted to the
Canadian Liaison Mission, 16
Omote-Machi, 3 Chome, AkasakaKu, Tokyo, or fertile Director of
Immigration, Immigration Branch,
Department of Mines and Re­
sources, Ottawa.
“Such applications will be ex­
amineel on their merits to deter­
mine whether the individuals have
in fact retained Canadian domicile
and are re-admissible to Canada.
"In his letter Mr. Keenleyside in­
forms us, too, that the position of
Canadian citizens of Japanese an­
cestry who served in the Japanese
ared forces is still under study.”
Mr. Keenleyside’s letter was re­
ceived in reply to an inquiry from
the national JCCA.

It is inferred from the report
that the following persons are readmissible to Canada:
1. Canadian-born persons who
were stranded in Japan during the
war, and who retain their Cana­
dian citizenship.
2. Canadian-born persons who
were , repatriated to Japan, after
the war under the government’s
voluntary repatriation scheme.
3. Naturalized Canadians who
’were in Japan during the war and.
whose naturalization has not been
revoked.
I
■1. Japanese nationals who were
in Japan during the war and who
still retain Canadian domicile (see
New Canadian, Dec. 6, for expla­
nation of "domicile”).

Japanese Schoolkids
Agitate Against
Cold Classrooms
TOKYO.—Schoolkids found it
their turn to demonstrate in the
Imperial Palace square the other
week. Some 10,000 of them, some
waving red flags, asked for re­
form in the school system. They
asked for an increased budget and
the adoption of the six-three-three
system. This system means nix
years in elementary school, six
years at middle school with stu­
dent option on attending higher
school for three more years.
A final plaint of the parading
children was, "Give us warm
schoolrooms.”

Nisei Takes Oyer
Lillooet Hardware
LILLOOET, B.C. — The hard­
ware store in Lillooet formerly
operated by Smedley & Sharp
Ltd., of Williams Lake, was sold
recently to Fred Kozuki, who has
been living in Williams Lake, ac­
cording to the -Bridge River-Lillooet News.
Mr. Kozuki, a Nisei, arrived
from north and is operating the
business. The name of the store
has been changed to the “Lillooet
Hardware.”

A Comeback On Long Skirts

(A rebuttal to Aki Sato's “Taking a Poll on
Long Skirts,”

Speaking of long skirts, let’s

persisted when material short­

The Saito family have worked

All the savings from their work
in the beet fields have been turn­
ed over to Chieko’s medical and
hospital bills. When the doctors
in Lethbridge gave up, they had
two alternatives. Chieko could
either remain at home with all
the implications that this mpqnt.
or they could go to the Mayo
clinic for special treatment with
a chance of a cure.
Here is when the Saito family’s
neighbors in Coaldale first got an
inkling of Chieko s plight. As

the war years in the 14th cen­
tury, they would have had more
trouble than the long skirt is
causing women today.

And if Ave look back a little
farther, we see that Eve walked
about in nothing but her scanty
hide. Few styles can be called
oiiginal. All those which are socalled derive from some historical
precedent.
Which will it be?
Should we go back to medieval
times or back to the ways of Eve.
And now that it is decidedly
cold, don't you as sympathetic
people approve of long skirts for
being something more than decor­
ative surface? If your vote is
still against the New Look which
the large majority of women
favor. I'll bet any girl is glad that
she is wearing something heavier

be better to have heavy, ribbed,

Winnipeg Basketball

That on-again. off-again Christ­
mas basketball tournament has
taken a turn tor the worse and at
this stage seems definitely headed
for the rocks.
Financial difficulties of outside
teams seem to be the main ob­
stacle to the meet raking place
in Toronto. Two localities, Chat­
ham and Alontreal, have written
tn asking for financial assistance
to make the trip.
London in­
forms that things will be too busy
there during the Chrismas-holi­
day's to bother about basketball.
Hamilton is the only town willing
to take part.
Lending a financial hand is
something Toronto cannot guar­
antee. Unless a large gym is
rented and admission charged,
such an obligation would be im­
possible. Having never charged
admission before, the Toronto
league feels that attendance
. would suffer if money was taken
at the door for any such event.

On Dec. S the students took
their fifth win with one loss by
closely edging out Central. 21-18.
in a low-scoring game. In the
second game, Johnny Yamabe got
hot and netted 33 points for a
new league high to lead Elmwood
to a 44-16 victory over North End
Aces. This broke a third-place
tie between the two teams and
put Elmwood one point behind
the secon-place Central team.

Elmwood’s
Johnny
Yamabe
easily leads individual
lists. Central captain Ta I Hirose
is runner-up, as he was in last
year’s race. followed by North
End s Taxie Takada. Sam Fujii of
517ers, who led league scoring
last year under the Delta X banher,- is in fourth place. The other
half of Central’s Hirose-Yahiro
combination, Frank Yahiro., is
fifth man.

Mustangs, who lead the Toronto
Nisei Basketball loop, had wanted
to^lay an exhibition game with
Alontreal for some months back,
but there didn’t seem to be much
enthusiasm from Alontreal. The
Alustangs were all set to go on
their own to Alontreal and back
and had rounded up their own and
friends’ cars to make the trip.
Montreal surely could do the
same. Winnipeg is hardly expected to enter since the distance is
too great.

Instead of holding a Toronto
tourney, Mi Akiyama, League
president, says he might shift
the scene to Hamilton and dump
all responsibilities into the lap
of the eagers in the Ambitious
City. Hamilton says they wish,
to put on the tournament them­
selves and, so most likely we
will see a southern Ontario
tournament with Hamilton as
host instead of an
Eastern

tournament
in

JOE IZUMI BOWLS 900 TRIPLE
TO SHATTER JCCD LOOP MARK
TORONTO.—Alini-Mix still leans
with 50 points in the JCCD Com­
mercial bowling league with OK
Cleaners in runner-up spot, only
one point behind. Club 20 has
moved into third position with 42
points, just ahead of Bill Takeda
Insurance’s 41 points.
Tets Mori (OK Cleaners), ag­
gressive businessman bowler,
shone on Dec. 5 with a 774 high
triple and a 301 high single,
Mori sponsors the OK Cleaners
team.

Perhaps the winners of the
Ontario tournament could meet
the winners of the proposed
Alberta-Winnipe.
_ _ game, if one
should come off this season, for
the Dominion Nisei title. I think
this would be a fitting climax for
Nisei basketball and should be­
come an annual affair.

S-andy Ono, a Takeda-man, came
next in high triple marks with

747, followed by Club 20’s Mas
Isoshima with 737.
In the previous week, Joe
Izumi
(M ini-M ix)
rolled
the
amazing 900 triple to lead in
that department for the season.
Izumi also took over high aver­
age lead, with 233, from Tak
Hayashida, who
dropped
to
second spot with 230 after lead­
ing for nine weeks.

Jack Henmi (Canton Chop Suey)
holds the league high' single mark

da (Mini-Mix) with 364.—T.Y.
