family and particularly one young girl is here told
and illustrated' by Nisei artist Takashima. She tells it
gently, without hatred or anger, as if she would pro­
tect us from its full harshness just as her parents
tried to protect her. It somehow makes the outrage
the more terrible.
And unjustifiable by all civilized standards — since
no J.C. ever committed, or was even accused of. a
single act of espionage or sabotage. Yet their farms,
homes, stores, and fishing vessels were confiscated.
Older sons were sent to internment camps .in eastern
Canada. Fathers were sent to wilderness camps in the

Rocky Mountains to build primitive shacks that would
house their families for the next three years.
This is a book hard to classify. It is simple enough
for a child to read, yet the nuances might be a little
difficult for children, to grasp fully. On the other
hand, the reverse might be true. Perhaps only children,
and those who can — like the author — become chil­
dren again can understand the utter helplessness of
a child as it watches its parents fight for courage and

Perceptions
By Riichi
WE ARE NOT WHAT WE ARE BUT WHAT WE SEEM TO
(Mother night. Kurt Vonnegut)

■ This sociological, consciousness 'expanding epithet was dropped
o my intellectual digestive tract by happenstance one day,
linistered through discussion by .a well intentioned friend who
ggested that I partake of some Kurt Vonnegut in order to get
y head straight about the way things are- in the world. Having
dulged in the experience, I discovered that my thoughts were
greeted towards myself and the Japanese Canadian community,
id, these thoughts were guided -in such direction when the above
ed premise was placed in conjunction with certain remembrances
personal, as well as objective experiences I have gathered lately.
‘‘Immigrants are under constant pressure to conform to poli1, economic, and legal structures of their adopted country, but
ciety permits a wider variety of behavior in such matters as
amily life, religious belief and practice, and social and cultural
ssociations.” (Bi & Bi Report)
Unfortunately, the thoughts I entertained did give me cause
or concern. Of course, if you do not .see a certain problem, then
e problem ceases to exist. However, I see a problem.
“In Canada discrimination has rarely been expressed in laws
ir by-laws.” (Bi & Bi Report)
Today, visible ethnic minority groups can and do participate
the structures and institutions of the majority culture. They may
nen aspire to and adopt the value .systems and goals of their host
ntry with a limited amount of success. Because of this, some

Japanese Doctor Denies U.S. Claim
Of Rice And Stomach Cancer Link
TOKYO. — An authoritative source has refuted
as groundless a U.S. scientist’s statement that the
talc used for milled rice was at least partially
responsible for the high incidence of stomach
cancer in Japan.
Dr. Tatsuo Tani, head of the Ministry of Agri­
culture and Forestry’s Food Research Institute,
said the mineral had never been used to co.at
milled rice or for any other purpose in this
country.
In an interview with a Japan Times reporter,

Dr. Tani said it was only two years ago that his
institute started studying coating of rice for the
first time here, naturally with other substances
than talc.
The use of talc, which is technically known as
a soft hydrous magnesium silicate, is banned on
all kinds of food .including rice by the Food Sani­
tation Law which came into being in 1947.

Dr. Tani was commenting on a report from
Washington quoting an article written >by Dr.

seriously consider the numerous alternatives we now have available
to us and take advantage of this freedom of choice.
So what has all this got to do with the opening quotation ? I
propose that it is now possible to be what we are, and not what we
seem to be. The group roles and patterns we have adopted are self
■imposed. They cannot be but otherwise. They may very well have
been developed by our need for survival and they may very well
have worked successfully for us in the past.
Unfortunately, like so many other roles and patterns, they have
become archaic, fossilized, and unnecessary to the point of being
restrictive to .much needed change. The chains many of us are
dragging now, are self-imposed.
