S. I, Hayakawa redress stand still same - even after new information known
By BILL HOSOKAWA

, . UNITED^

S.L

Hayakawa set off quite a, flap
last summer during the - JACL
convention in Salt Lake
City
when he characterized as “ridi­
culous” a proposal to seek billi­
ons from: the federal^ govern­
ment as '“redress” for the inju­
stices of 'the- Evacuation in 1942.

Hayakawa criticized the red­
ress campaign jri a - speech at
the convention’s closings banquet.
What made his remarks parti, eularly unwelcome was that just
a few days . earlier, official delegates to the convention had -vo­
ted unanimously to make redress
a top priority item.
Had Hayakawa' known of this
action ? Had he gone out of his
way deliberately to
upset his
hosts ‘ in" what would have to be
interpreted as a tasteless . aff. ront ? ■
'
A'few days «ago in 'Denver,
where he was campaigning on
behalf of a Republican; candida­
te for Congress, Hayakawa said
he had no knowledge of the JA
CL decision when he stood up
to address; the banquet. Altho­
ugh many JACL leaders
and
officials were his long-time per­
sonal friends and political allies,
Hayakawa says none had thought

walked, as .it were, right straight
into a booby trap.

ves, he feels, are likely to be
the root'cause of serious friction
between the countries and,
of
course, such hostility -inevitably
will affect Japanese Americans.
: How can that imbalance
be
reversed ? By selling
more to
Japan. And how can that be ac­
complished ? It is understandable
that a semanticist would- cite co­
mmunications as a key need. He
would like to see Japanese lan-

guage instruction be made avai­

potter and Takashi
.Sugimura,
52, a cancer specialist.
Ozaki who was a disciple of
the late novelist laureate Naoya
Shiga says in a telephone inter­
view with The-^ Japan
Times.
“We, Japanese, can hardly
be
Westernized and the reverse is
also true. I see no value at' all
things
in attempts to imitate
Western.”
“My motto is to remain a pure Japanese to the bone. By av­
oiding imitation of
anything
Western, I believe that we, Japanes, can grasp the essence of
humanity by our- own ways and
such will be of universal
and
common' significance to diverse
races and nations on earth,” he
comments.
His short story “Mushi no
Iroiro” i(ilnsects of Various Kin­
ds) was translated into -English
and carried in “The Pacific Observer” in 1951, a quarterly ma­
gazine published by the iStanford University Press. The tran­
slation work is said to
have
largely contributed to the
deabroad of
eper understanding
Japan’s autobiographical novels
