The Weekly Habit
-By TOYO TAKATA-—
WE’VE YET to taste this new
” glorious underground inno­
vation in Toronto which made
its citizens forget about the Hbomb. income tax and the Stanley
Cup playoffs for a few days —
the subway. However, it’s appa­
rently down there.
It’s funny how it makes you
feel proud that you’re living in
Toronto. Ever since landing in
this city nearly ten years ago,
we’ve found plenty to gripe about.
But along comes the subway and
you feel that this isn’t a bad
place after all, at least it has a
progressive outlook. Even though,
because of where we live and
where we work, we get no directbenefit from it.

should have a subway under
every street.

The first time we used the
Chicago system, it was 12 cents,
But the last time it was up to
twenty cents. Still, getting back
to the time element, it’s a good
investment compared to surface
transportation. But there is noth­
ing glamourous about it. Neitherthe stations nor the subway cars
are to be admired and once the
cars get out into the open, they
pass through backyards of tene­
ment apartments.
However,, neglect or laxity
could put Toronto

similar fix in time.

TORONTO, ONT.

tion,” through satisfactory re­
settlement of evacuee families
across the country by the Federal
Government.
Kaslo, B.C.

Currently a grade eight stu­

skating club several years ago,
and last summer, took up special
figure skating practice in Vancouver. She is shown in her
skates in the picture below.

Van, Businessmen in Japan Looking for Buys
OTTAWA. — The new Can­
ada-Japan
trade agreement
signed by representatives of
the two powers concerned late
month is expected to go
into effect no later than the
end of April. It was learned
this week that the pact was
laid before the Japanese Diet
for ratification on Apr. 9.
Submission of the agreement
for approval of the Canadian
government is expected to take
place following the Easter
holidays.
Explore New Markets
Meanwhile, a 60-man Can­
adian trade delegation from
Vancouver arrived in Tokyo
last week to explore Japan for
new markets. The group is ex­
pected to remain in Japan for
three weeks.
The businessmen, all mem­
bers of the Vancouver Board
of Trade, hope to step up a
two-way flow of imports and

exports under the new CanadaJapan trade agreement. The
agreement gives Japan “most
favoured nation” treatment in
the Canadian market, and is
expected to step up Japanese
exports to Canada.
Ready to Buy
G. W. Grant McConachie,
president of the Vancouver
Board of Trade, said, “It is
worth noting that a substantial
number of our party are buy­
ers, representing many mil­
lions of dollars in potential
purchases from Japan.
“This reflects our conviction
that
international
trade must flow in more than
one direction.

‘‘Many of our group are
ready to enter into immediate
trade talks and many have
been given full authorization
to conclude trade contracts
now.”

Repentant Nisei Serving Prison Sentence
Has Plans to Use Time Studying for Ministry
MODESTO, Calif.
Larry
Miyakawa, who has spent 12 of
his 40 years behind bars, is on
his way back to prison again. He
says he is going to study for the
ministry there.
Miyakawa, a San Jose ap­
pliance salesman, seems to have
had one weakness since he was
18 years old—the habit of forg­
ing checks to solve temporary
financial difficulties.
As he was given his latest, sen­
tence last week, probation offic­
ers told his story to Superior
Judge B. C. Hawkins.

His schooling had stopped at
the seventh grade, but prison
courses and extension work in
his cell enabled Miyakawa to ob­
tain his high school education
and two years of college.
Miyakawa has published a book
on the Japanese language, and
while out of prison has served
variously as a teacher, salesman
and a cannery worker.
He now wants to become a min­
ister, he said, and his studies will
be directed towards that objective
while he serves his latest bad
check prison term.
