"Are we going to permit the unresisted issuing j of fishing licences to Japanese so j they can replace our own natives j in the fishing industry " ' 1 This policy of pitting one racial problem against another racial , problem multiplies the number of ; problems, not reduces them. The "Canadian Japanese loyal- : ty has passed some impossibly severe tests with very high : marks. Questioning of local loyalty is prejudiced and ridiculous in face of the records. Should any group be favored in any industry or should unrestricted licences be issued anybody in any industry? Aye, 'tis a good question, but there is little reason to splatter the mud all over a race of people separated , from their homeland. Don't forget the fisherman is a fisherman above all else. To elim. ' inate the Jap tradesman from his trade on basis of race prejudice creates only another problem of unemployment. Don't forget the Canadian Jap had torn from him his home his living, his possessiens and his freedom during the war years. iCniLDREvso,. tx-st quality !

Far from the 360,000 "new Canadian" putting ; old Canadian out of jobs, they created more worV for all. Their arrival in the country meant 360,000 more consumers of Canadian foods, clothing, shelter and services. The 360,000 meant that many more buyers of goods and services, which in itself is a considerable market. It is demonstrable fact that in the years before 1014 when the tides of immigration flowed most strongly into the dominion, the country prospered greatly. Every immigrant capable of doing a day's work is another mouth to feed, hence another "market" for farm products. Every immigrant who can earn a day's pay is a buyer of the goods and services produced b y a 1 1 wage earners.
