d petition will reprew ating the mending of
m families of JCs whose imato relatives are in Japan.
In or dor to draw up this petithe Committee requires into’.” ation on the number of JCs
who wish to call family members
or relatives from Japan. A notice
for this puruose appears in the
Japanese section of th.is issue,
requesting particulars of the ap­
plicant. and nominated immigrant,
and also their relationship.
The relationship factor is im­
portant to the Committee in
order to determine the number of
applicants with family members
in Japan.
Immediate relatives
have been classified as: (A)
Parents, children, brothers, sis­
ters, grandparents: (B) nieces,
nephews, uncles, aunts, firstcousins. Naturally, it is assumed
that class A will be allowed en­
try with less difficulty than class

The Committee also desires to
know the number of persons who
have already made applications
and whose cases are pending. Re­
ports should be sent immediately
to the Toronto J CCA. 415 Spa­

also plans to study the question
of domestic servants and farm
laborers as new immigrants. The
study of the Canadian immigra­
tion acts and the wartime ordersin-council concerning the re-entry
of Canadian citizens or Japanese
nationals who have been resi­
dents of Canada, is now under
way.

viewed Mr. Renzo Sawada, the
Japanese delegate to the U.N.—a
handsome, soft-spoken yet in­
tense man with a shock of white
hair and a western-style hand­
clasp that almost makes you yelp.
He left no doubt that the pre­
sent Japanese attitude in the
U.N. is one of see no evil, speak
no evil, do no evil. By his careful
choice of words as well as the
words themselves, he made it
clear that Japan is determined,
as of now, to emerge from her
first U.N. session ^without having
given offense to anybody.
She is speaking out on the
matter of nuclear tests, he said,
because she has a special right
to, and because this is a matter
on which the Japanese people
feel so strongly. Japan hopes
very- much, he said, that it will
be possible to ban nuclear tests
althogether—and that the pro­
posed registry of tests will be a
first step toward that end.
We pointed out to Mr. Sawada
that Japan has been described as
a powerful member of the Afri­
can-Asian group of nations at
the U.N.
He interrupted to point out
that the use of the word “power­
ful” was mine, and not his. Ja­
pan, he said, has no delusions of
grandeur and no desire to be
th'ought of as “powerful”.

Kusumoto, one of the few NY

Ken Takeda-—we couldn’t get a line on him. Also there is Mrs. Set­

ions of the immigration laws of this country. She had to wed her
husband ( a United Church missionary from St. Thomas) outside of
Canada to gain entrance into this hallowed land. Doing postgrad
studies in social work at U of T, she plans to return to Japan after
she gets her MA.
