QUERY IN CENSUS

A

OTTAWA.—Canadians will not
B be required to divulge their eth­
nic origin to census takers if
Prime Minister Diefenbaker has
his way. He says the practice
contributes to national disunity
a and has promised to abolish, it.
But Liberal member, Lionel
Chevrier (Montreal-Laurier), dis­
agreed, contending the listing of
ethnic origin on the census forms
contributes to national unity.
Mr. Chevrier told the House of
Comcons last week that abolition
of the census ethnic query would
■ create difficulties for many naA tional ethnic organizations.
He said French Canadian and
it other ethnic groups rely on. the
census to obtain information
about the origin of Canadians.
This has helped develop the tra­
ditions and cultures of many
ethnic groups across the country.
During the 1957 general elec­
tion campaign, the Prime-Minis­
i ter told minority groups across
the nation that he would abolish
the census ethnic query if elected.
Held every 10 years, the next
census is due in 1961.

TOKYO.—American style mu­
sical comedy came to Tokyo this
month when Shuny Palmisano’s
Lemonade Revue showed audien­
ces for- the first time the fast
tempo style of Broadway shows.
Palmisano, a native of Alabama,
took 35 Japanese dancers and
taught them how to dance Broad­
way style. One of the numbers,
with Kabuki dancer Hanayagi
Wakano in the starring role,
moved from slow Japanese tempo
into a rock and roll finale, as the
dancers shouted, “lock and loll.”

Nisei Geneticist:

Niseis in Japan Want Closer Contact With Canadians
in Tokyo I
During my
privilege
of meeting
had the
Canadian
Niseis
when
about 24
Mrs. Helen Tucker, chairman of
the UNESCO Mission to Japan,
and I were guests at a dinner
meeting held at the Olympic Re­
staurant on Aug. 6. These Nisei
had previously gathered together
in June with the thought, of form­
ing' a Canadian Nisei Associa­
tion.
The working committee under
Messrs. H. Yonemoto, I. Nishio
and B. Ito and Mrs. K. Nishidera
is spearheading the formation of

the association. To date the elec­
tion of officers has not taken
place, but. I understand this will
be done sometime at a Fall meet­
ing.
It was gratifying to learn that
the Canadian Niseis whom I con­
tacted were vitally interested in
the immigration situation. They
expect, to form a Canadian Cul­
tural Research department with­
in the association to introduce
Canadian culture to Japan. They
also expressed a desire to know
how their association could best
assist the JCCA and to help
strengthen the ties between Canada and Japan.

some general ideas on activities
and purposes of the association
were formulated.
One of the major desires is to
establish contact with Niseis in
Canada so that they could ex­
change ideas and obtain informa­
tion about living conditions and
employment opportunities. They
wish to co-operate with and assist
the JCCA in dealing- with busi­
ness, social or other affairs in
Japan. When Canadian Nisei or
Issei arrive in Japan, the asso­
ciation could provide guides and
interpreters.
As an ultimate aim; one mem­
ber said, “this association, due to
its uniqueness, should act as a
stepping’-stone toward mutual un­
derstanding’ between Japan and
Canada.” They could invite Can­
adian businessmen, scholars or
missionaries as guest speakers
when such individuals arrive in
Tokyo. And they could assist Japanese exchange students who
go to Canada by giving them in­
formation about Canada and per-

culture to the Japanese, and con­
versely, Japanese culture to Canadians.
They want to assist’ strandees
who are desirous of returning' to
Canada. In some remote rural
districts, some former “repat­
riates’’ are deeply distressed, do
not know about current Cana­
dian affairs or that there is a
way open for return to Canada
oi- else are financially incapable
of returning.
Within their own group, they
feel the association is a good way
in which Canadian Niseis in Ja­
pan can maintain contact with
each other through such activi­
ties as picnics, beach parties,
dances, cultural and political dis- .
cussions. They could also be able
to inform each other of good bus­
iness opportunities in Japan.
Other plans: to publish a
quarterly newspaper to provide
textbooks and exchange works of
school children of both countries;
and to promote cordial relations
with other groups in Japan.

Women Have Edge an Counselling

MONTREAL.—The field of
human genetics is one in which
women have an edge over men.
It is almost an advantage to be
a woman “because we often find
it easier to talk to the parents
and get the family history,” said
Dr. Irene Uchida.
Dr. Uchida is attending the
sessions of the International Con­
gress of Genetics at the Univer­
sity of McGill, Aug. 20-27. She
is now doing research at the Hos­
pital for Sick Children in Toron­
to in human genetics, using as
her source material the children
admitted as patients.
She has
been working there since her gra­
duation with a Ph.D. degree in
biology from the University of
Toronto in 1951.
Many parents and potential
parents come to the Hospital
seeking advice on whether it
would be wise to have children

ground.
‘Tell the Truth’
“We like to tell the truth even
if it hurts but we never defini­
tely advise against, having an­
other child,” she said.
She feels that human genetics
“is an exciting field because it
is so new.” One of her’ jobs is to
follow up any twin admit ted to
the hospital and trace any abnor­
malities. “We have a nice collec­
tion of twins with congenital
hearts,” she said.
She believes that people today
are more honest when it comes
to "admitting their medical his­
tory for the purpose of a genetic
study than they were formerly.

Intermarriage
Dr Uchida works closely with
Dr. Norma Walker, director of
the Department of Genetics at

At the Congress, Dr. Walker
stated that as a geneticist, she is
greatly in favor of mixed mar­
riages* “which generally produce
an extremely7 fine type of peo­
ple.”
“If we are ever going to have
peace and happiness on earth we
must have more mixed racial
marriages,” Dr. Walker said.
At a special convocation, Dr.
Hitoshi Kihara, director of the
National Institute of Genetics,
Mishima, Japan, was one of three
leading delegates to be honored
with the degree of Doctor of
Science last week. It was. noted
of Dr. Kihara that “he is un­
doubtedly one of the' world’s
leading ’cytologists,” making both
theoretical and practical contri­
butions.
Genetics was hailed as a “world
brotherhood of science” as some
1,500 d’eIegates from 47 countries
attended the sessions.

EDMONTON.—Of the two top
Japanese golfers entered in the
Canadian Open that concluded on
Saturday only Haruyoshi Kobari
took away some money. His 276
total for 72 holes, nine strokes
off the pace, won him $218. He
was in 10th place behind Wes

Ellis who won $3,500 with his 267.
Koichi Ono, one of the Japa­
nese pair that won the Canada
Cup last year, was out of the
money. Kobari is the professional
champion of Kanto, central Ja­
pan.
The two will later play in the
1 B.C. Centennial tournament in
Vancouver.

would-be-suicide, his love unre­

pan’s lover’s leap—volcanic Mt.
Mihara—and promptly jumped
into the wrong crater.
Koichiro Wada, a 25-year-old
Tokyo merchant, plummeted all

of 16 feet and wound up with a
couple of scratches for his ef­
forts, He had expected to end his
miseries with a 300-foot plunge
into a active crater.
Wada sat in the inactive crater
for two hours wondering what
bad happened, and then started
climbing out.
By this time a seven-man po­
lice squad, alerted by the owner
of a mountain-side tea shop
where Wada left a suicide note,
spotted the frustrated young man
and hauled him out.
Wada’s family rushed to Oshi­
ma and took him home but only
after he promised the police he
would forget his lost love and
start a.new life.
