WHAT OTHERS SAY:
Published on Wednesday and Saturday of each week

among those of Japanese origin in Canada.
Japanese Canadians don’t like
the word “Jap” as applied to
them and we can’t say we blame
them.
It belongs in the realm of other
curt and usually derogatory ab
breviations used—too often in
accurately in any case—to de
signate what might be called
hyphenated Canadians. Such
terms are “Chink”, “Bohunk”,
“Polack” and the like. These
terms are not heard very often
today but they were common
enough in former years. Thoscwho still use them are unenlight

Canada but do amazingly well

How Now, Mr. Wilson?

One of the most truly astounding and paradoxical turnabouts
of viewpoint ever recorded in the annals of the Japanese in Canada
is the attitude of one Halford D. Wilson, Vancouver aiderman.
. Mr. 'Wilson, as many will remember, is the same man who
carried a bitter, lurid tub-thumping campaign of discrimination and
hate against the Japanese Canadians in the trying times before the

true to say we do well because of
it. We’ve operated in the past on
the assumption that a good mix

But to make a success there
must be tolerance and mutual

mouthful. Again we’d agree that
it would be better not to use it
at all. But frankly, the suggested
alternatives “Januck” and “Jee”
aren’t too inviting.
. It would be strange and weird
indeed if all the racial groups in
our midst started designating
themselves by peculiar variations
of the familiar “Canuck”. We’d
have “Franucks” for FrenchCanadians, “Branucks” for British-Canadians, “Panucks” for
Foies and so on. There’d be no
“Canucks” anywhere and no
chance ever of achieving a Can
adian nationality.
— The Vancouver Sun
Financial Woes
“We have not the slightest iota of faith in Alderman
Wilson’s sincerity. We believe, him to be .inspired solely by a
vicious and all-consuming racial prejudice, to be bent solely
on his own political self-aggrandisement. For we have looked
too long upon his stained hands, we have listened too long to
his malicious and hate-mongering charges to be filled with
anything but disgust and nausea.
“With characteristic cunning he rouses the fires of racial
prejudice with vicious charges of disloyalty again to prey
upon a helpless minority group in Canada, again to receive
letters of congratulations from the ‘Native Daughters’, whose
support he seeks at the polls”.
Let us consider some of his past activities.
Mr. Wilson pounded on the theme of the "Oriental Menace”;
all along he stated that Japanese residents may become a "far greater
menace than any other aliens we have on the Pacific Coast”. Among
other things, he sought the restriction of trade licences issued to
Japanese Canadians because they were becoming "a dominant factor
in the business activitiy of Vancouver”; urged the cancellation of
licences to Japanese Canadian fishermen because he was compelled
to doubt their loyalty even though they be Canadian-born. He stated
that he feared the "Oriental penetration into the economic life of the
province” and "because the Japanese, as a racial group in B. C., are
very fertile, the school population has increased rapidly and by 1968

rights and for evacuation dam
ages, a national organization was
set up. It helped to improve
conditions and status of the Can
adians of Japanese origin. It had
strong support until the object
ives were accomplished.
Now, even a budget of $4,800
a year seems to be difficult to
attain. The chapters are com
plaining about their quota. Un
less the larger communities
continue their support, the nat
ional JCCA seems to be on the
brink of curtailing its activities
to the point where its effective
ness will disappear.
While the position of Canadian
Japanese seems to be weaker
than ours, it seems to be tragic
that a national organization can
not be maintained on a stronger
basis.
Prestige of an organization
cannot be built up overnight.
Local problems can be managed
by local groups. United effort,
however, is necessary when a
nationwide movement is under
taken.
The experience which the JCCA
is undergoing is not an uncom
mon development. It is a trend
which needs to be watched closely
by every national organization.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Doesn't Like "Januck" . .
Editor, The New Canadian:
I was shocked to read that the
delegates at the JCCA Convention
in Vancouver had passed a reso
lution, suggesting that “Januck”
be substituted for “Jap”.
I strongly agree with the reso
lution in part, re: the ban (of the
word “Jap”), but I most emphat
ically protest the suggestion of
any concocted tag or label.
I suggest to the proper authovities to have the latter part of
that resolution deleted or rescinded.

About Furuhashi . . .
Editor, The New Canadian:
A small item in your issue of
February 21 caught my eye. It
concerned the barring of Hironoshin Furuhashi from the swim
ming competitions in Melbourne,
Australia.
My sympathy lies not so much
with the great Furuhashi but
extends to the thousands who died
and were wounded under the
Australian banner, and even more
to the thousands who lived and
still maintain open hostility to
wards the Japanese people.
The dead have died in vain and
ihe living have gained nothing by
the victory over the Japanese
aggression. I doubt greatly if
most of them can explain the
presence of their delegate to the
United Nations or’what his pur
pose there is, when incidents of
this sort are happening in his
own backyard.
Many thanks for publishing
this item to keep us abreast of
the times. Minute though it may
seem, it is enough evidence to
indicate that we are not yet ready
for world government.

War Brides Welcome . . .
Editor, The New Canadian:
I simply could not let the re
marks reprinted in your paper
on Feb. T8 about a mother of a
Canadian soldier protesting
against the idea of Canadian sol
diers marrying Japanese girls,
remain unanswered. I would like
to say, firstly, that if her son is
old enough to fight for his people
and country, then he is old
enough to marry whom he pleases.
There is no difference in the
sight of God between the yellow,
black or white races. We are all
equal, no matter how much we
think of ourselves. No one in
Canada is a real Canadian ex
cept for full-blooded Indians.
Each persorf has- come from a

mother is Scotch, my father is
Irish and my grandfather Dutch.
My son is happy with his Japa
nese bride. I think Japanese are
all wonderful, clean girls and
can cook and keep house mar
vellously. I’m sure that if the
mother loved her son, his happi
ness in marrying the Japanese
girl would be hers too. I too have

WHAT OTHERS SAY:
Published on Wednesday and Saturday of each week
as a medium of expression and news outlet
among those of Japanese origin in Canada.
Japanese Canadians don’t like
the word “Jap” as applied to
them and we can’t say we blame
them.
It belongs in the realm of other
curt and usually derogatory ab
breviations used—too often in
accurately in any case—to de
signate what might be called
hyphenated Canadians. Such
terms are “Chink”, “Bohunk”,
“Polack” and the like. These
terms are not heard very often
today but they were common
enough in former years. Thoscwho still use them are unenlight
ened about the nature of the
Canadian democracy.
We are a mixed people in
Canada but do amazingly well
despite it. Perhaps it would be

How Now, Mr. Wilson?
Cali Them Canadians
One of the most truly astounding and paradoxical turnabouts
of viewpoint ever recorded in the annals of the Japanese in Canada
is the attitude of one Halford D. Wilson, Vancouver aiderman.
. Mr. 'Wilson, as many will remember, is the same man who
carried a bitter, lurid tub-thumping campaign of discrimination and
hate against the Japanese Canadians in the trying times before the

mouthful. Again we’d agree that
it would be better not to use it
at all. But frankly, the suggested
alternatives “Januck” and “Jee”
aren’t too inviting.

indeed if all the racial groups in
our midst started designating
themselves by peculiar variations
of the familiar “Canuck”. We’d
have “Franucks” for FrenchCanadians, “Branucks” for British-Canadians, “Panucks” for
Foies and so on. There’d be no
“Canucks” anywhere and no
chance ever of achieving a Can

— The Vancouver Sun
Financial Woes
“We have not the slightest iota of faith in Alderman
Wilson’s sincerity. We believe, him to be .inspired solely by a
vicious and all-consuming racial prejudice, to be bent solely
on his own political self-aggrandisement. For we have looked
too long upon his stained hands, we have listened too long to
his malicious and hate-mongering charges to be filled with
anything but disgust and nausea.
“With characteristic cunning he rouses the fires of racial
prejudice with vicious charges of disloyalty again to prey
upon a helpless minority group in Canada, again to receive
letters of congratulations from the ‘Native Daughters’, whose
support he seeks at the polls”.
Let us consider some of his past activities.
Mr. Wilson pounded on the theme of the "Oriental Menace”;
all along he stated that Japanese residents may become a "far greater
menace than any other aliens we have on the Pacific Coast”. Among
other things, he sought the restriction of trade licences issued to
Japanese Canadians because they were becoming "a dominant factor
in the business activitiy of Vancouver”; urged the cancellation of
licences to Japanese Canadian fishermen because he was compelled
to doubt their loyalty even though they be Canadian-born. He stated
that he feared the "Oriental penetration into the economic life of the
province” and "because the Japanese, as a racial group in B. C., are
very fertile, the school population has increased rapidly and by 1968
may be expected to constitute one-third of Vancouver’s school
suffered the same fate as Japa
nese Americans by being evac
uated from the Canadian Pacific
coast to interior regions had a
great deal to learn from our’
experiences.
In order to effectively cam
paign for the restoration of their
rights and for evacuation dam
ages, a national organization was
set up. It helped to improve
conditions and status of the Can
adians of Japanese origin. It had
strong support until the object

Now, even a budget of $4,800

that a national organization can
not be maintained on a stronger
basis.

cannot be built up overnight.
Local problems can be managed
by local groups. United effort,
however, is necessary when a
nationwide movement is under

The experience which the JCCA
