^ beginning of the year the Prime~Minister
declared-to-the House of^Gommons.that the-jGoy^OTj^^ satisfied that the vast majority of~ Japanese Canadians were fully loyal to Canada. Since then there is no reason to believe that the Government has changed its mind. -.
The assurance of the Federal authorities is perhaps "chiefly grounded in the report submitted by the expert investigating committee-6f-last fall and winter. ^It-is-backed JAP Jimyever, as our community leaders will ^acknowledge, by the sympa-thetic insight-of the" members' of" the- special advisory^ com-mittee on the Oriental question,'as well as by the remarkable^ degree of co-operation given by the Japanese public to the spcial registration carried out by Federal police. It is logical to assume,,moreover, that the Federal police-and the military intelligence are Avell posted ^on feefing^and^sentiment in our
" community and that they have found no evidence to show that such confidence is misplaced. -
There is, therefore, ample reason--fo believe that the FederarGovernmeht places a considered trust in the loyalty
� of. the Japanese Canadian community. There is reason to believe that responsible authorities are anxious to avo:d any obviously unjust policy likely to injure that feeling of loyalty. Indeed, it may not be going to far to suggest that in .the event of ^a "shooting war", the Government would take steps to lend us Its protection:and to prevent any-.unfortuhate^ahd
� undeserved incidents, likely to prejudice bur Ipyalty to Canada..
~TT'~ ~"Qa the~pther hand, it js; clearly/pur:respx>nsibility-^ justify-that trust confidence.-v-It -is clearly pur Jfirst duty to:.guard :- against^ and to watch unceasingly for, suibversiye or disloyal elements tliat would betray that trust arid 'invite, disaster, upon our own heads. . . ':.'�
