'DUTY TO CONTRIBUTE TO CANADIAN CULTURE',
QUEBEC JCCA TO ORGANIZE LANGUAGE SCHOOL
MONTREAL.—At a recent
meeting of the Quebec JCCA, the
executive members decided to or

classes. In Canada there are lan
guage schools officially estab
lished in Vancouver, Kamloops,
Lethbridge and Toronto.
Said the Quebec JCCA: “Many
Canadians of Japanese ancestry
extend themselves in local affairs,
and yet these same persons shy
away from looking into their own
parental background, traditions,
and culture.
It is our duty to
contribute towards the Canadian
culture which is actually a mo

“One of the first steps towards

Washington JACL representa
tive Mike Masaoka strongly feels
that JACL should expand its
policy. Masaoka pointed out that
many government sources are
seeking to determine the attitude
of Nisei, especially with matters
dealing with U.S.-Japan relations.
Since the JACL is recognized as
the only representative organiza
tion of Japanese Americans, the
Washington JACL office is bom
barded with questions on matters
of U.S. relations with Japan.
It was Masaoka’s opinion that
Nisei can render a definite con
tribution to better U.S,.-Japan re
lations by changing JACL. policy
but admitted it involves a jisk.
In a strong speech before the
New York JACL in May, Masao
ka had declared: “We have a duty
to fight back,” asserting that
U.S. policy, intentionally or not,
is undermining Japan at a time
when America needs friends
through undertones of.prejudice
and discrimination which spill
over on the Nisei and should be
of concern to them.
He cited the adverse trade re

U.S. as one glaring example of
discrimination.
If Japan- could
