TORONTO.�Over a hundred persons gathered at The Pagoda to honor 'thirty Nisei veterans of-/World. War II at a banquet sponsored by the JCCD Issei Division on Saturday, October 4.
Speeches of gratitude to the veterans \vere given by several prominent Isseis and G. E, Trueman. Chairman was R, Suzuki.
In bi-a opening address. Chairman Suzuki related the difficult, circurnfltaiu rs when Niseis were volunteering in early 1&45. .
If not one Nisei. hdd enJisr?<!, things would'be different in Canada today, he suggested. Citin.ff the war record ot the Japaneso A'merk'ans, Mr. Suzuki told ; of how they hail re-reived their rights because of their ^.service- to their 'country. .
SET AN EXAMPLE
."What you boys have done will bear fruit in the future. You have set an example for the ,N*sei and Sansei to follow," he said in closing.
Mr. Trueman- of the . Japanese .'.Division', urged-, the Nisei to dedicate themselves to the fight for
tolerance�to .crimination. .
abolish racial,
"I don't think we fuHy realize the favorable influence the war � record of the American Ni.sei has had on the position of Japanese in Canada," he �stated.
DREAM REALIZED
Rev. K. Shimizu, ("nited Chun h minister, said that his dream had been realized when the Nisei were finally allowed to enlist and did so, after the discriminatory policy during'most'-of- the war.
"Most people realize the ideal for which you boys enlisted. If you will co-operate, with the Issei they will back you."
. Th,e Issei Division committee expressed regret that due to the lack of accurate addressee, a number of .veterans did not receive invitations.

Naka Family
Interviewed
j'was ahle.to interview only one,
'�of the -.families--'the Nakas. V '. As I entered the hut where the , .fa nit lies'''were, living. I heard Mary Nak'a, a. qualified piano teacher, playiiig wliat sounded to me like :a dance piece by Brahms. ;
�;.'. .'They, lived .in a neat, attractive ." place, and it surprised me tb.'fiiul . such homey atincv>pliere in a de.serted army hut. . They "-".asked Jimmy lioriinndine to tea,.which � ; we .'accepted', with thanks. ::.
Mr. Naka explained his position to me. He said he was a natuta* lized Canadiaii. He had built up a cortain security iiv his confectionery business .in Vancouver. Tho government had taken that away and sold:it.
. He was interned during the w-ar and treated no differently from enemy aliens. Nov that tlie 'war' was over it \vas the responsibility . of t h e go\ e r n m eh t t o rec t i f y the error; He and his family should, be rt>turneil and re-instated i:i 'Vancouver. Oivly then would the �.government;. be _ recognizing his �'right, as:a Canadian citizen.. M\\ "Xaka oinphasized the fact that he . -hud no; nvovcd Din of the coast voluntarily, like most of the pihei s! He had 'never"Consented to bi-inx moved. �'�-'�-

Mr. Naka was convinced he was doing the right thing, and I knew I could not shake, his convictions.
Nobody Seems to Know. Solution : / ;
;\Vhat does the Labor Department propose to do about the situation? Nobody seems to know.
Mes-s has been discont.imied at the hostel and the hold-outs have to buy their own food. Heat-water and electricity /is supplied free, and. there is ho rentalcharge. There; seerns to be: ,a common understanding :-anipi.ig the single ex-iiiternees that they won't ac-
cept any type of ".work. A few*: of theni; are- reported to have ^ome savings which are now/being used to buy the food for all of the IS men. Sometime^ the ex:hostel residents now in ^loose Jaw send them groceries, but this help has bee,n growing less regular.
The faniiij' groups are better off finan'cially" since members of each family go ont jo town each day to do odd. jobs, the earnings from which. are sufficient to'.pay for the family'-s fobd.-
If the authorities expect the hostellers to give in. they ..-may have to wail a lone time. Thereiseems to me even a possibility ihat the single, men's group may. .as a' last resort/stage _a hunger strike rather than give in and aeree .to go self-^.uppoi-ting elsewhere, .;.'! can't see a single solution 'o the problem. The government- so" far has avoided tisin.c -fbn-e. T!i'��"-sit-downers believe sincerely" -that
. \\hat they are doinc is right.
