Advert.
CANADA'S
"Japanese
Problem,"
thrust
into
prominence
six
years
ago
with
the
attack
by
Japan
on
Pearl
Harbor,
today
appears
dwindling
from
subject
of
utmost
concern
to
a
perplexity
with
solution
in
sight.
But
it
has
not
diminished
unaided.
Canada's
handling
of
the
"problem"
has
been
termed
by
some
civil
'liberty-minded
persons
as
"a
milestone
in
the
democratic
treatment
of
minorities."
Of
necessity,
the
first
chapter
was
grim.
At
the
outbreak
of
war
with
Japan,
more
than
1,000
fishing
vessels
of
Japanese-Canadians
who
fished
off
the
British
Columbia
coast
were
immobilized
as
a
defence
measure.
The
Pacific
war
later
spurred
federal
government
regulations
permitting
confiscation
by
R.C.
M.P.
of
automobiles,
radios,
cameras,
guns
and
explosives
owned
by
Japanese
in
B.C.
In
1942
B.C.'s
22,000-odd
Japanese,
nearly
the
entire
Japanese
population
of
the
Dominion,
were
dispersed
from
west
coast
"protected
areas"
to
points
east
of
the
Cascade
Mountains.
Their
property
was
taken
by
the
Custodian
of
Enemy
Property
and
sold.
All
of
the
Japanese
in
Canada
today
have
been
cleared
by
the
government
of
any
suspicion
of
disloyalty.
.
In
19M,
the
federal
government
promised
that
Canadian
citizens
of
Japanese
origin
loyal
to
Canada
would
be
treated
"fairly
and
justly."
The
upshot
of
the
promise
was
the
apM)intment
this
fall
of
Mr.
Justice
Henry
I.
Bird
of
the
British
Columbia
Court
of
Appeal
to
hear
claims
from
Canada's
Japanese
that
they
had
suffered
"serious
financial
losses"
through
the
forced
sale
of
their
prop
erly
oy
the
custodian
ot
bnemy
I'roerty.
The
appointment
of
the
Japanese
Property
Claims
Commission
is
unique
in
Canadian
history.
Charged
with
hearing
the
greatest
number
of
complaints
ever
to
appear
before
a
Canadian
tribunal,
the
investigations
may
last
more
than
three
years.
VB
f
GOODWILL.STILL
POSSIBLE'S
THE
DAWN
OF
CHRISTMAS
approaches
as
the
I
effort
3f
the
foreign
minlsltrs
to
solve
the
problem
of
Germany's
future
weakens
to
the
point
of
extinction.
The
salvaging
of
Europe
remains,
if
it
were
possible,
a
more
acute
issue
than
ever.
Yet,
this
wrestling
with
what
is
a
vital
responsibility
cannot
be
regarded
as
any
the
less
important.
The
struggle
cannot,
must
not
cease.
Meanwhile
the
sorry
old
universe
will
rejoice
and
be
glad.
For
it
can
be
done,
despite
the
uncomfortable
fact
that
there
is
not
all
the
peaee-on
earth
we
would
like
to
have
and
that
the
existence
of.goodwill
among
men
is
not
remarkable
today
for
its
scojk;
and
fervor.
NATIONAL
PARKS
THERE
IS
A
SIMILARITY
between
the
national
I
park
systems
in
Canada
and
the
United
States.
In
each
country
the
already
spacious
park
areas
have
within
recent
date
been
still
further
extended.
The
lands
set
aside
on
both
sides
of
the
border
can
ye
classed-
as
vast,
yet
viewed
from
the
standpoint
of
the
total
public
domain,
are
small
indeed.
But
their
grandeur
and
beauty
are
of
priceless
service
in
the
power
of
the
appeal
to
the
human
spirit
and
in
the
renewal
of
sti-ength
flowing
from
some
of
the
fairest
scenes
in
creation
itself.
President
Truman
not
long
ago
dedicated
the
Everglades
National
Park
in
Florida,
and
his
eloquent
words
apply
with
truth
and
fitness.
He
said
in
conclusion:
"Here,
we
may
truly
understand
what
the
psalmist
meant
when
he
sang.
'He
maketH
me
to
lie
down
in
green
pastures,
he
leadeth
me
beside
the
still
waters,
he
restoreth
my
soul.'
