1 HISTORY OF THE JAPANESE. CANADIANS IN
BRITISH POINT TIBIA, 1877-1958, by Ken Adachi. Written
tor the B.C. JCCA as its contribution to the proposed CentcnYear history of ethnic groups in that province. 1958.
By FRANK MORITSUGU
This is a report and a somewhat review of an 18,000-word
historv that has just been written. It will not be published until the
ethnic eroup history project by the Civic Unity Association in Van­
couver "is completed. So, for the time being- at least, the readers
of'this newspaper will not be able to get their hands on it.
But. as one who has read it, I:d like to pass on the word that
Ken Adachi has done a masterly job of putting together in brief
form the story in which all of us who have lived in B.C. took part.
It should be no surprise to careful readers of The New Canadian
that Adachi is a good writer. Most recently he has been responsible
foj*a series of stimulating editorials which have made the paper
come alive again. And some years ago before he entered university,
h^ was editor of the NC. Since then he has contributed occasionally,
most* noticeably in Holiday Issues. And as a graduate student and
English lecturer- at the University of Toronto, he has done some
intelligent and literate book reviews for The Toronto Star.
REASSURING DOCUMENT
But to the National JCCA History sub-committee (chairman
George Tanaka and members Raymond Moriyama and myself), this
brief B.C. history was a tremendously reassuring document. In spite
of all our tough editing instincts, we could find no major faults
with Adachi’s work which we had assigned to him. In fact, all three
agreed that not only was the history eminently readable, it un­
covered many facts' that we hadn’t known before. And as history
project movers-,; we had all done much required reading ourselves
into the subject.
For example, I had known that the first Japanese to have come
to Canada was a sailor named Manzo Nagano who reached New
Westminster'in 1877. But this was the first time I learned of his
busy activities in B;C. in the years he spent there. And I for one
did not know the first immigrant woman was Mrs. Washiji Ova
who came to Vancouver 10 years after Nagano. And so on.
Do you know when B.C. first decided to exclude the Japanese
from the franchise ? Do you know how many Japanese were in Can­
ada in 1900 ? Do you know the details of the anti-Oriental riots on
Sept. 7, 1907 in Vancouver? These are only a few of the highlights
that Adachi has ferreted out and described.
BARE BONES EOR LARGER HISTORY
This history concentrates on Japanese Canadians in B.C. be­
cause it was written as the B.C. JCCA’s contribution to a proposed
collection of B.C. ethnic groups histories for Centennial Year. The
B.C. chapter originally intended to write it on its own, but passed
on the job to the National JCCA when the history sub-committee
- was set up for the larger national history project. Originally the
committee felt having this specialized and more modest history done
for B.C. would be good experience for the bigger job. But Adachi’s
work gives more than that. It provides the bare bones on which
the larger history can be built.
To remind you of the scope of this other larger history, the sub­
committee visualizes it as a factual and chronological account of
the Japanese Canadians from 1877 until now, interspersed with
personal accounts from Japanese Canadians themselves to illustrate
the human side of the events and the statistics. The history contest
now going on was planned with the hope of collecting some usable
first-person accounts. Extensive research and traveling to various
Japanese centres across the country will be needed to get the rest.
This is an ambitious project but no more than a dramatic and
unique history such as our deserves.
CHRONOLOGICAL ACCOUNT
But to get back to this B.C. history, now completed. It is a
chronological account which covers the first arrivals to Canada in
the 19th century, through establishment in B.C., to the rising tide
of discrimination and antagonism which erupted in the wartime
moves of mass evacuation, forced dispersal and resettlement. And
finally it ends with the return to the west coast and a look at Ja( Continued on Page Eight)

OBEY PARENTS IF COMMANDS REASONABLE
TOKYO. — Japan’s- modern
youths — like those virtually
everywhere else in the world—
think, it’s every bit as important
to enjoy life as it is to work hard
ar their homework.
This unexceptional
attitude
Uas uncovered in a survey of
oTOO youths between the ages of
1 ‘ and 24, conducted by the Cen-

Greets Margaret
TORONTO. — Fred Kayahara,
pce-president of the National
JCCA, was among other ethnic
Uoup representatives in the civic
^eicome in front of city hall for
Princess Margaret on July 30.
kayahara had received an offipal invitation from Mayor Phil“ps and the citv council to at­
tend.


tral Council for Youth Problem^.
The survey, in which 1,380 boys
and 1,620 girls were questioned,
showed that six out of 10 young
people obev their parents only if
they feel their parents’ com­
mands are reasonable.
'The others said they obey,
period.
The Council for Youth Prob­
lems said few of the youths are
worried about domestic or world
problems.
It added that while
some of them are dissatisfied
with their present jobs, most are
confident of the future.
The council reported that while
the youngsters are not conscious
of any particularly- patriotic feel­
ings. they* feel proud oi their
countrv when a Japanese athlete
wins an international match or
a Japanese film wins an interna­
tional prize.

Short of Pilots
TOKYO.-—The shortage of
pilots is one of the most serious
problems confronting commer­
cial aviation in Japan. Japan
Airlines, for instance, has some
130 pilots on its payroll. -IS of

of the precious foreign cur­
rency- earned by (he airlines
must be paid out to the Ameri­
can pilots, many of whom
make over one million yen a
month. The monthly pay of a
Japanese pilot is around 200.000 yen.

Buddhists Ask Halt of Atom Tests
RAYMOND, Alta.—The Bud­
dhist Churches of Canada on
August 2 sent a resolution to
Prime Minister John Dicfenbaker
requesting that the Canadian
government exert its influence on
the nations of the world to stop
all atomic tests.
This resolution was passed by
Buddhist delegates from B.C.,
Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and
Quebec when they- met in the an­
nual Buddhist Churches of Can­
ada Conference on June 27. 28,
and 29 held at their headquarters
in Raymond.
The text of the resolution is as
follows:
“Whereas the Atomic Tests
conducted by the powerful na­
tions of the world ertdanger the
health of all people as well as
constitute a constant threat to
the peace of mankind, and
“Whereas our Government has
gained the confidence of the
world in its wise leadership in
the field of international affairs,
be it, therefore,
“Resolved that this conference
of the representatives of the
Buddhist Churches of Canada,
meeting in Raymond, Alberta, on
June 27, 28 and 29, 1958, respect­
fully- petition our Government to
exert all its enlightened influence
on the nations of the world to
stop all atomic tests for the sake
of world peace.’’
Tn his letter

to

Mr.

Diefen­

baker, Rev. Shinjo Ikuta, Execu­
tive Director of the Buddhist
Churches of Canada, pointed out
that the resolution expressed “the
fervent and sincere wish of the
Buddhists of Canada.’’
“We make this submission,’’
Rev. Ikuta continued, “because
on television and radio and in the
press we have always followed
your courageous
words
and

action, dedicated to the cause of
world peace, and we have been
most deeply moved by your con­
cern for the peace of humanity.”
'Phis Buddhist resolution is but
one of the many appeals all over
the world for the banning of nu­
clear weapons. Japan, for ex­
ample, on Aug. 6 observed the
13th anniversary of the atom
bombing of Hiroshima. Prayers
were said for the dead, estimated
at from 78,000 to 220.000 from
the first atomic explosions ever
used in warfare.

Premier Nobosuki Kishi ex­
pressed regrets that Japan’s ef­
forts to get. the manufacture and
testing of nuclear weapons term­
inated had been unsuccessful. At
a Tokyo press conference ho an­
nounced that Japan will submit n
new draft resolution in the UN
General Assembly calling for the
suspension of nuclear tests.
The fourth World Conference
Against Atomic and Hydrogen
Bombs and for Disarmament is
scheduled to meet in Tokyo next
week.

Vancouver's 'Most Popular Teacher’ Embroiled
In Controversy Over Efficiency Rating Scheme
By SIMM A HOLT
TOKYO. — North Vancouver
teacher “Sevie” Pearson has been
caught in the middle of a serious
fight between' the government
and
Japanese teachers over
teacher efficiency rating.
It started as a result of a state­
ment she made during an inter­
view with* the Japan Times (En­
glish language newspaper) re­
porter.
A former member of the Ja­
panese Diet lodged a protest with
the Canadian Embassy in Tokyo.
Miss Pearson, winner of The
Vancouver Sun’s most popular
teacher contest has been mobbed
by- reporters from newspapers,
radio and television here and
when the Japan Times man asked
her about efficiency rating she
told him she was opposed to it.
She did not know at the time
the scheme had been put into
operation here recently and is a
controversial issue.
Since then 1,000 policemen in
Kyoto raided 90 teacher union.

offices. (It happened during our
stay- in Kyoto on Miss Pearson’s
prize tour of Japan.)
In
Wakayama
Prefecture
(southwest Japan) 534 teachers
went on strike in protest against
the system and in Okayama,
union members demonstrated in
front of the Prefecture offices.
Miss Pearson had told the re­
porter it is impossible to rate a
teacher by- watching the super­
ficial things. She explained that
ability- can only- be measured by
results obtained from the stu­
dents.
The former Diet member com­
plained bitterly on her return to
Tokyo about her stand on teacher
rating-and said “Teachers are
Communist-led, they- are bad.”
She told him she had only been
expressing her opinion as a teach­
er ami not criticizing anything in
Japan.
When lie again accused the
teachers of being Communists,
she replied that was “rather
hard to believe.”

THE YEARS OF CHANGE
(Continued pom Page One)
panese Canadians in B.C. today. Adachi tells about the repatriation
dilemma, the property claims agitation, the final easing of almostancient restrictions and the granting of the provincial franchise.
His is not a dull history as droned out in schoolbooks. His tone
is mostly objective but he calls a spade a spade, an agitator an
agitator and an injustice just that. This history is not a nice-nice
story to make everyone feel good now that it’s all over and done
with. Neither is it an anguished yelp from somebody still picking
at old scabs left over from bitter years.
“STRANGE MUSIC”
And as he says in his introduction, “The story of British Colum­
bia's Japanese Canadians is unique. Withal, they have had their
loves and lusts, their strengths and weaknesses, their long days of
loneliness and fear. Many have gone eastward after the storm, never
to return: others have come back. But for all, the roaring sound
of rivers, the rustle of autumn leaves underfoot, the strange music
of an embattled street, the giant timber reaching skyward presaging
a promise, remain in the mind’s eye. The memories of the long years
are both good and bad.”
One of these days you may be able to read this historv yourself. Andrae of these days, the history sub-committee and the Na­
tional JCCA hope to bring to you a more complete, history that
will grow out of this one. But until then, we wanted to tell you
about it—and the fact that as sub-committee members, George Ta­
naka, Ray Moriyama and I are proud to have been able to^make
Ren Adachi s history of the B.C. Japanese Canadians come into
being.
