A JACL TRIBUTE At our 4th qu.rterly NCWN· DC meeting at the Hilton Inn on Nov. 6, oU the San Fran- cisco airport, I was privi!eged to introduce and present the J ACL Cit.tioD to former crue! Justice Phil Gibson ot the California Supreme Court. The retired jurist belies hi; years hy his alert and energetic na- ture. His response was ve: :y well received. My opportunity to with Justice Gibson produced some interesting observ.tions. One thing he said wa.; th.t. by not referring the Supreme Court decision declaring the Califo.· nia Alien Land Law !IJlOOD· stitutional to the U.S. Sup"eme Court, Governor Edmund G. Brown. then Attorney Gener3i of Calliornia, did us a service. iHe also spoke of long experi· ence in being a mino:-ity vf one or two in decisions un issues involving social justice. Only wilen the Court IVOS domin.ted by liberals, wit!! a keen sense of social justice, was it possible to reach deci· sions like the Alien Land law, anti·miscegen.tion , P:op 14, etc . Ju stice G!bson drew an aoal· ogy between those who at· tempted to repudia\;! him and hh5 associates for IdDd !aw d.ecision, and those now at- tempting to remove tho? jus- tices responsible for the deci- sion declaring Prop. 14 Ul!con- stitutional. 1:>oth mea sur es hav- been enacted by the "peo- ple ", There seems tv me no c'earer evidence of the need fOJ men or vision like Ju stice Gibion, vmen we must "ith so m2ny people who h.v. the idea they can upset the Cor. stltutional rig'.ts vf the mLOority. by pas.;ing iJOCOD- stit utional legislation through the: initia·jvp process.

Le-t us nt) !, t!!.t to begin with, it was tho members of the state legisl.· ture who by • vote of 13&-1 referred the m.tter for !he third time to the voteM 01 the state. rt is true th.t some felt that since their constituents had turned it down on two pre- vious occasions. they $bould g-J along wib their thinking, but with the a ssur ance on our parI that we would conduct a vi· gorous and aggres.sive paign to educate the voters, the legisl.tors almost un.ni mously went .Iong with our persuasion. A significant facet or this campaign was the fact t'nl1 thousands of Japanese Ameri· cans in our state contributed from SI to S5OO, totaling ap- proximately Sl6,ooo and that so many actively participated in .ddre ssi ng envelopes, mailing and distributing brochures, etc. In othe.r words, "when the chips were down" loyal J AOL- ers throughout the state closed ranks .nd r.lIied to give SJR 20 the kind of support unpre· cedented In tbe annals of our organiz.tion in Washington. Henry B. Owen Another significant turning point wa.s the selection of Hen· ry B. Owen as ch.irman 01 the Statewide Cilizens Com· mittee for SJR 20. In my humble opinion. we could not have found anyone more quaD- tied. more sincere and more dedi c.ted to providing us with the le.dership on this level 01 .ctivity.

A JACL TRIBUTE

At our 4th qu.rterly NCWN· DC meeting at the Hilton Inn on Nov. 6, oU the San Fran­cisco airport, I was privi!eged to introduce and present the J ACL Cit.tioD to former crue! Justice Phil Gibson ot the California Supreme Court. The retired jurist belies hi; years hy his alert and energetic na­ture. His response was ve::y well received .

My opportunity to t.l~ with Justice Gibson produced some interesting observ.tions. One thing he said wa.; th.t. by not referring the Supreme Court decision declaring the Califo.· nia Alien Land Law !IJlOOD· stitutional to the U.S. Sup"eme Court, Governor Edmund G. Brown. then Attorney Gener3i of Calliornia, did us a service. iHe also spoke of long experi· ence in being a mino:-ity vf one or two in decisions un issues involving social justice.

Only wilen the Court IVOS

domin.ted by liberals, wit!! a keen sense of social justice, was it possible to reach deci· sions like the Alien Land law, anti·miscegen.tion, P:op 14, etc.

Justice G!bson drew an aoal· ogy between those who at· tempted to repudia\;! him and hh5 associates for th~ IdDd !aw d.ecision, and those now at­tempting to remove tho? jus­tices responsible for the deci­sion declaring Prop. 14 Ul!con­stitutional. 1:>oth measures hav­in~ been enacted by the "peo­ple", There seems tv me no c'earer evidence of the need fOJ men or vision like Justice Gibion, vmen we must CO~ "ith so m2ny people who h.v. the idea t~.t they can upset the Cor.stltutional rig'.ts vf the mLOority. by pas.;ing iJOCOD­

stitutional legislation through the: initia·jvp process.

thousands of Japanese Ameri· cans in our state contributed from SI to S5OO, totaling ap­proximately Sl6,ooo and that so many actively participated in .ddressing envelopes, mailing and distributing brochures, etc.

2-PACIIIIC CITIZIN FrIday, Nov. 18, 1968

Washington NewsleHer: Mike Masaoka

Elections '66 Washington

In any analysis of the election results of Nov. 8 bv Japanese Americans, there is no more satisfying and meaningful victory than that for SJR 20 (Senate Joint Resolution No. 20). a constitutional amendment repealing Washington State's version of the infamous alien land law.

That triumph at the ballot box, though not over· whelming, after two close but embarrassing defeats in 1960 and 1962, vindicates JACL's judgment and in· sistence that a third effort be made this year to erase from Ule statute books the last remaining of 16 alien land laws that once prevailed in the western states aud more than any single law or practice restricted and circumscribed the lives and opportunities of those of Japanese ancestry in the United States.

Victory in that effort also demonstrates t h at justice and equity will only triumph if citizens of good· will continue the ~ood fight against entrenched bigotry and prejudice until those evil forces are routed.

That success too in a sense represents a vote of confidence by the citizens of Washington in their fel· low Americans of Japanese ancestry in their midst.

• • • While there are many who contributed much to

that heartwarming win, without detracting from any, may we identify three who probably more than any others were most responsible for the successful SJR 20 campaign-Tak Kubota, Toru Sakahara, and Henry Owen.

Since the nullification of the alien land laws in Oregon and California, l'ak and Toru have labored diligently for about a decade to bring about similar action in their Pacific Northwest State. Each in their respective ways have provided the spark and the lead· ership that led to the eventual triumph, though at times to them we know the struggle seemed not worth the while.

This campaign, Henry Owen, a distinguished Washington civic and business leader and a veteran of its political wars over the past quarter century, under· took the organization of a citizens' committee to edu· cate and inform the electorate of the implications of this constitutional amendment and to rally the many segments of that State's population to the cause of SJR 20.

To this volunteer trio-Tak, Toru, and Henry­together with the thousands of JACLers and others of goodwill in Washington who worked so hard to update Washington's land laws, Americans of Japanese an· cestry and the National JACL owe a debt of gratitude.

No matter how one views the elections of '66, as far as Japanese Americans are concerned, it was suc· cessful in removing that most vicious and racist of all anti·Japanese laws from the last American State in which it was still part and parcel of the constitution.

• • • Prop. 15 (Proposition No. 15) in California, that

would have authorized naturalized Issei and others who were residents in the United States for more than 20 consecutive years and were over 50 years of age on June 27, 1952, to vote however, was turned down by the voters of the Golden State.

Although only about 10,000 would be the bene· ficiaries of this special exemption, Prop. 15 was reo jected-we think-because most Californians were not aware of the intent and the scope of this referendum measure. And, JACL and JACLers were slow in organizing for the campaign.

Just as the SJR 20 success in Washington State proved that only active educational and informational work can arouse an electorate more concerned with other issues, so the defeat of Prop. 15 underscores the necessity for JACL to begin now to organize for an· other effort two years hence, in the presidential elec· tion year of 1968. And, as in Washington, JACL can· not do it alone; other Americans concerned with this matter must be invited to join in the common cause of enlightened citizenship rewards.

• • • Now that the November 8 returns are in, except

for the governorship of Georgia which remains in doubt because of the unique election laws of that State, the magnitude of the GOP comeback may be better calculated.

Nationally, the Republicans gained a net of 47 seats in the House of Representatives, one of the largo est gains in the off·year elections this century and the biggest since 1958 when the Democrats took 49 House seats when President Eisenhower was in his first White House term. In the 90th Congress that will con· vene next January 10 (1967), although the Democrats will remain firmly in control numerically speaking, there will be 248 Democrats to 187 Republicans, as compared to 294 Democrats and 139 Republicans in the past 89th Congress.

In the Senate, the Democratic margin has been reduced from 67 to 33 in the 8gth Congress to 64 to 36 in the forthcoming 90th Congress, a net gain of three Republican Senators.

In the gubernatOrial races, the Republicans pick. ~d up a net of eight state houses, with Georgia's still m. doubt. This means that beginning next year there will be 25 GOP governors, as aj?'ainst 17 before the last elections. And Republicans will control five or the ei!(ht most populous states ICaliforna New York Penn. sylvania, Ohio, and Michigan), with' enough el~ctoral votes to elect a president two years hence (1968) if all GOP·dominated states vote for the Republican can· didate. The Democrats who controlled 33 states before lhe e l e.cti~ns will retain governorShips in 24, again with Georgta In doubt.

Methodist hurch here-which may be an odd nam tl for an Issei-Ni ei congregation-have made it a t ra­dition to sponsor a Sunday get-together each fa ll for the growing number of Japanese teach ers. gra~,:,ate students. undergraduates, researchers and techm clans coming to this area. The Issei ladies cook up mountams of festive Japanese (ood and the guests are urged to

stuff themselves. which they manage to do.

LOS ANGI!JLES - A Sansei se .. vlceman who Ir.lned at FOI'l Sam liouston, Tex .. \V9S

lin a leller to hLs mother In southwest Los Angeles. the serviceman recounled an ex· perience which h. lell needed lelling so that the .!luatlon he encountered 15 corrected.

The serviceman, who shall be unn.med. was o(len asked

whether he was 01 Chinese a n· cIMb'y and the lnquirlng Texans had to be told he was of J npancse ancestry. Their curiosity sa Ushed, they would contlnue on their lVay.

But tle incessant num'Jer of Inquil'les (mally broke down the Sansei to answer tn Lh~

alllrm.tive. whereupon the Tex.n roundly applauded him 101' his brothers lo( ClUnese descent) having rescued lh ~

tost Texas b.lIalion during For some of the guests this get-to~er is t~eir first opportunity to eat Japalles~ food smce l eavrng the homeland. For others, it provides a chance to meet

other Ja~allese and make compatible friends i n a lan d where differing customs and a language barrier add

to the loneliness of being away from h ome.

This year's gathering was held last S u nday and

the ladies outdid themselves in the kitchen. A group of war brides who belong to the church sang a song

of welcome to the tune of "Hello Dolly." There were s peeches and jokes and tile guests, understan dably

nervous and tense about being foreigners alth ou gh tlley needn't be. had a chance to let down t heir hair

and enjoy themselves. It was, l'm sure, a delightful afternoon and a rewarding one for the Issei of t h e

church who worked so hard to' make it a uccess.

VFW, 442nd Veterans, West L.A. JACL mark rescue of Lost Texas Battalion

The one element missing were the Nisei. Perh aps

next year: when the church will be in more adequate quarters, there will be room for them to meet some interesting people and help welcome them to t h e

United States. I keep thinking of the young Africans wbo come to the V.S. with high hopes, and who go home bitter and disillusioned to lead anti-American

movements. This must not happen in Japan for lack

of Nisei hospitality.

• R ENEWAL - The function mentioned alJove gave

me a chance to renew acquaintances with the Rev.

James K. Sasaki, pastor of Centenary Methodist Church in Los Angeles, who stopped by enroute home from

the World Methodist Conference in Chicago. Dr. Sasaki had the church in Denver. when it was known as Cali­

fornia Street Methodist, from 1942 until 1952.

We got to talking about isei matte rs. and some

of the things he said. if I can recall them correctly, may be of general interest. He made a survey of Nisei

occupations a few years ago a nd found that more than 90 per cent were in science· oriented work - as engi·

neers. researcher s . in the various fields of chemistry and medicine. Why? When he dug a little deeper he

found three reasons.

First, there was the challenge of these professions.

Second was the prospect of achieving relatively high incomes fairly early in life. And third , much of this

work did not involve working with people. In other words. these isei could concentrate in laboratories

or over drawing boardz, dealing with figu res and com­pounds, ideas and organisms. chemicals and diseases.

and largely avoid human relationships. Interesting point. Sorry we couldn' t talk about it at greater length.

Dr. Sasaki also mentioned that he found the at­titude among many Nisei toward the so·called Negro problem was as prejudiced and uncompromising, as that found among some southern whites. For one thing,

he feels, these Nisei do not share the American guilt complex over what has been done to the Negroes over

the years. For another. this Nisei element, proud of its social progress and economic achievements. looks down

on the Nel(roes for failln/:! to move ahead in the same

manner. There are. as Dr. Sasaki points out. some

notable differences in the two situations, making a di­rect comparison invalid .

Come back again . Dr. Sasaki. for some more stim· ulatin/:! conversation.

me, at lea.stl follow.

Robin Hood C<lunlry

England has always fasci· nated me . I can recall the boyllood joys In read 109 tlte tales 01 Rnbin Hood and his Sherwood Forest rogues and 01 King Arthur and his fabled Knights 01 the Round Table. In later years, the academic mandates of studying the lit· erary style; 01 WjJJjam Shake· speare, Robert Burns , Sir Wal· ter Scott, Alfred Tennyson and others have helped Ul increase my desire to know more about this island kingdom.

Of all the many nationality groups ,,>\licll constitute the United states, the Americans somehow have alw8)'1i had close a!lInity to th.ngs BriUsb; such as, language. customs. culture and even consume: product similarities.

U one walks into an EnglLh grocery store or departmen: store, an American would lee~

at home because the brand names on display are similar. Many 01 the major U.S. com· panies are establish.d here directly or indireo!.,f It·, no wonder that some otltives jok. Ingly say Illat it won' t be long belore England MU becom­America's 51st SId :e.

On t!le other hand, there are enough dif:erences of phi;(\;cr pb,y, manners and or semantics

Ul set the two nathns ap:lrt.

For Instnnce: Englishmen eat wllh the lork In t"e lett hind wlthoul chang,"~ It ~vel lite rlg'lI hand. Thcy u " !'ole knlle, held In tho right ,Iar.d, to cut or pu. h f""u onto the fork.

In the arca of ,pm.nllc., there Is great dlspar:ty In lhe we of colloquialisms as many of vou have noted w"tchlns Engll;II films. The English .x· press an Hem being expcnslv by saying It Is "dear" or whell we would call II a great dlY t~\~, would exclaim: "Il',:; D smashing day". They don 'I lake a vBcation !lllt a "!toll· day". To get in 8 line Is :0 "queue up~·.

Driving in England caUs 101 readjustment Irom ."merlc~n

drh~ng habib;-the steering wheel on the right side of the car and driving on the lell· hand side or Ihe road. I felt cock-..yed at fh'sl be\\lnd th. \\~teel bul now I'm wondering what it's going to be like when I get InUl my own car at home.

The hol·water laucet !n America is 00 the lell side but on the right side here.

A man's necktie is not only decorative but denotes his school or professional status In England.

Roman WaUs and CasU ••

By way of history, there a.~ remnants of the various invs· sions in north central Engtand. TIle ancient Roman walls still stand in Ch",ter. Evidence 01 Viking conquests abound in the names ot towns which are of Scandinavian orIgin.

There is still a d istinct de· marcation of the pr ,;.v inces. The Scots are proud 01 their heritage; the Irish are sUlJ fighting lor their domain; !he Welsh have yel to be totaUy as;lmilated. Regional dialects prevail in localHies away from Loodon, orten dilficult 10 un· derstand.

In viSiting the m useum3 here, I couldn't help but be amazed to reaUze lbal the knights of yore were corrl· paratively small men. Armor on e."<hJbit were for men stand.· Ing 5 ft.,;; to 5 ItAl, and ra .. ely lor giants over 6 It. tall. How­ever, they must have been ex· traordinarily strong men to be able to wield their sword. an:! lance.; while wearing arma­ment well over 90 lbs.

The crattsmen 01 tho.se day. nl"st have been keen metaUur· Rlsls to wrougllt rustprool st.el weapons.

ReUcs from medieval days Wllich are mosl Intriguing nlc the many casU .. ! and IV. tis which abound all over Euro~c. Some 01 the IInest example, arc the lortl'csses (ound In Britain, many of them built before the lOth Century or as late as the 15th. Many are likely to survive for centuries to come.

An Rwesome exnmple 1s ~he

Edinburg Castle, constructed In the early 14th Cenlury. lis age shows by the: mo,!\s co\'· ered exterior, bul Its InterIor Is exceedingly well preserv.d. It stands majestically on top oJ exposed bed·roek some 1.500 precipitous feet above the r:ity of Edinburgh, which lies at the loot 01 lhi.; glacial outcrop.

At SI. Andrew',

While In ScoUand, it "'as a rare treat to sel loot on L't. lamed st. Andrews golf cours", where modern gol! got It. slart. Members.hlp in Ihe Royal and Ancient Order t)! St. Andrews, who reign :'U'

preme at the course, is ve:-y eUte, Umited to some 1,200 persoM.

Fortunately, the person whJ hos ted me through Scotland had access to the clul> pro· vilege 01 the second old.,t golf club in the world. On the magnificent oak plaqur in lhe dubhouse are the namos of champ,ons dating ',.ck to J843. In th. huge trophy r",~ was a silver ;>Iatter with five golf balls, made 01 cowhide and hand""ewn like a ba ,ebalJ. Oldest was daled 17n, !!Ie newest was 1793.

No one knows when ,'lit a ~ ·

has it that Mary. Que"" of Scots, played the game in Ihe 14th Century.

On the Continent

Of 111e Ulur just concluded through Bel g i u m, Luxem· bourg, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Austria and France, it was rewarding Ul see the mallY places of historic re­nown. I loved all that I saw in Switzerland-every bit as awruorne as I had precon· celved it to be-the chalets high up on the mountain slopes, the exquisite glacial lake.<; nesUed in the majestic Alps.

Italy with its splendors 01 art, cailledrais and ruins is a land of contrru;t-not only of ils past willl the present but also 01 the r ich and the poor. Our tour escaped being tra!>')· ed by the recent !lood, lortll' nately, having left Northern ftaly a few hours belore land· slides blocked all roads. .\s

it was, the bus driver made many detours to get us out though we, too, were marooned for a day.

I am grateful that we had a chance to see t'.le fabulous ar t collections In Florence be­fore the rains came to subse· quenUy inundate t!le many priceless treasures.

Florence, Leghorn, the RI· ver Arno are Dames 'amilia:­to Nisei 01 the 442nd, who brought lame and ho,or not only to themselves but al: who are Japanese Americ.an s. I 1·

lenUy saluled those who loughl in Haly and to the many ,"~10

fell In batUe In the area. The pilgrimage (0 P;sa to

see its leaning tower, t!1e cathedral and baptistery was an interesting day.

Space now dicta te<: c.sual mention of the other cities we were able 10 visit: Rom2, the heart 01 the Roman Empire, and mecca for archeologwts, historians and religIOUS fana· tics . .. Venice, Milan, Na· pies and Capri ... Time didn't permit us to viSIt V,en. na bul Innsbruck, noted Oly:n· pic ski resort, was most en­chanting.

Of the countl'ies toured, G'r· many standi out as an indu3-tr10U5 and progressi Ie n~tion.

Everywhere one sees new con­struction and signs 01 bom· bardment of WW2 are \lard tr tied. Her autobahns are COnl·

parable t" the best w, have in t~le states. Prosperity is vi­sible everywhere.

Universal Currency

One thing which this trio convinced me to advo ·.!,:c is DOt only for universal lan­guage, weigbts and me9.sures but also a common internation· al monetary system.

It'. aggravating to constant· ly change your money. The variations on monetary values In each country not only be· come unnerving but down right irritating. It would be nice If we can go anywhere in I.he world by using a comm ,n currency.

The travels here have cer· tainly boosted my desire to see more ot other Jands. Some day soon, I hope, these dreams come true.

Immigration

Dots a Year's Visit Abroad Inter­rupt the Five-Years Continuous ResI­dence Required for Naturalization?

Question: 1 eame to the United I States on an Jmmlgration visa sLx years ago. Six months after my arrival. my mother. who had

[:~~intlf. Jr :~[u~~d c~~~tr;ia;:d a year. at the end of which she died . I then returned to the United States and have been here ever since. Am 1 eligible for naluralJzatlon?

Answer: You will have to walt " little longer belore you can applv for natUralization. The law requires that you must have re­sided continuously wlthln the United States for at least five years Immediately prec~dln, the date on which your petition is Wed. and also that during that period you must have been physi­cally present In the Unlt~d Slates (or p~rlods totaling at least hall of that time. You meet this last requirement , but not the former. since absence from the United States for a year or more bteaks the continuity 01 your residence. WhUe the law provides for cer­lain ~X"ceptlons, your visit to your mother Is not among them. You wUl therefore have to count your five years of residence trom the date of your return from that "isU. Information about this and other QUlt.Stlons dealIng with nat· urallzatlon, is contafn~d in "Row to Become a Chlun of the United Stat~s .

• THREE R'S IN CALIFORNIA

This is not about reading, 'riting, 'rithmetic but about what happened Nov. 8 in California and analysts point to Reagan, reapportionment and the Rumford reaction.

Republican gains in the legislative hall - the House, the State Senate and State Assembly-wer e mild when viewed in the context of the approximate one-million majority vote that finds Reagan in the gov­ernor's chair come January. Most dramatic were the last-minute victories of Republicans Ivy Bakel' Priest for state treasurer and Houston Flournoy for state con­troller. Reagan's running-made Robert Finch won the lieutenant governOr's chair by an even greater ma­jority than Reagan. (Incidentally, Finch's law partner Jim Nakano is an active Wilshire-Uptown JACLer.) Attorney General Tom Lynch remains the only Demo· crat in the state's executive branch. (Lynch spoke at the Saburo Kido testimonial at the San Diego conven­tion.)

California's new law·making lineup looks like this:

Congress-21 Democrats, 17 RepUblicans, GOP picked up three and they were hoping to win f iv~ ,

State £anate-21 Democrats, 19 Republicans. GOP picked ' up five, Recent reappor tionment of the State Senate forced incumbent senators to run against one another. Now that Bvron Rumford, ail thor of the state fair housing law, loSt by a slim lead in his bid for a state senate seat, opponents who have vowed to repeal this law in the 1967 legislative session will sense a tremendous psychological lift by this. We re­member too well the passage of Prop, 14 two years ago to invalidate the Rumford Act. Subsequently, the state supreme court declared the initiative unconsti· tutional and the law was reinstated, Appeal of this decision to the U.S. Supreme Court is now pending.

State Assembly-42 Democrats, 38 RepUblicans, A gain of seven seats for the RepUblicans. Of signifi· cance was the near -upset of Assembly Speaker Jesse Unruh when all other Democrat incumbents (except for one other) in Los Angeles County piled up majori­ties in excess of some 9,000 that Unruh had. Co·author of Prop. 15 to allow naturalized Issei voting privileges without meeting the educational requirements, Philip Soto (0) of La Puente, was among the vanquished. And our Livingston·JlIerced JACLer in the Assembly, Gor· don Winton, Jr., a 10·year veteran in Sacramento and author of a controversIal measure setting up collective bargaining procedures for teachers, fell to his Republi· can opponent.

• • Experts have pointed out the Democrats swept

into Congress on past Democratic tides were swept out by the Reagan flood. State Senate and Assembly changes can be traced partly to redrawn district boun· daries, And the issue of fair hOllsing ran as an under· current in many races.

Governor Brown glumly acknowledged his strong opposition to Prop. 14 also hurt him the most. "At the time I didn't intend to run for a third term," he said, ''If I had, I might have been more politic about it."

* • • As committed JACL was in the Prop. 14 cam­

paign and in the righteousness of a fair housing law­especially when public funds are employed to insure the lenders and developers - the California legisla· tive scene won' t be a remote one for JACL chapters in this state. A meeting of the legislative committees from the three JACL district councils in the state be­fore the National Board interm meeting next February to set up priorities on the kinds of bills to push or fight seems inevitable.

Looking ahead to l S72, California may have at least 10 additional seats in the Congress. And an Ori· ental American could be among the lot.

* LI 'L ABNAI YOKUMOTO

In our intense search for the Nisei angle in the news, we have been slipping past the comic pages -until the current spoof of AI Cappo One reader in Japan, we learn, doesn't think it is a " raffing" matter.

The Asahi Evening News, one of Tokyo's four English-language dailies, has received only one com· plaint so far about the episodes of the Ginza gangster, "Li'l Abnai Yokumoto."

Its assistant editor George Somekawa replied to the one complainant who found the series beneath the newspaper's dignity that Capp has poked fun at American people, politics and rest of the world with­out offense. " ... Japan and its people would make a giant step forward in the international family of na­tions if they would learn not to take themselves too seriously and learn to 'raff' at themselves."

Perhaps the Japanese are maturing since there has not been more reaction to the Yokumoto series , .. even stateside.

OUR COFFEE FUND Our longtime friend Albert Bonus of Seattle has

contributed to our "coffee fund" last week, and with colder days coming on-the pot will be perking more than usual. What other Li'l Tokio office can boast a steady benefactor so many miles away? Mr. Bonus has been remembering us for years.

The Blessing$ of Living in America

Our Challenge: Todd Endo

Killers of the Dream (After a summer hiatusl our Har·

yard scholar resumes his monthly con· trlbutions to the PaCifi c Citizen. Be· sides teaching two cou rses, Todd Endo Is also engaged In research pro· ject s, taking a few courses as well as considering topic..s for his column cha llenging the J apanese American to bKome more awa re of the greater forcts that besiege our Natlon.­Edilo,.)

Cambridge, Mass. Lillian Smith, a native Geor·

gian , once sbarply criticized the Southern way 01 lile with regard to race in a little book

entitled "K i I I e r s of the Dream." The dream which is killed is the American Drea m, One of the killers or the dream at whom she throws well-aimed ba"bs is the so­called moderate:

Along with the madness and hysteria came what we caU "re­action." Respectable people who dread violence and turmon gTew as afraid. of good as of evil. Both seemed "extreml'!," both sl'!l'!med equally disturbing to "peace and order." Honl'!st but shorl!lghted people. even warmhearted people. became proud o{ their mora l con­fusion. calling it "moderation." Those who cherished freedom and human rights and worked lot them we.re put in the same catc­ROry o{ "trouble makers" as the lOCK and White Citizens Council! a nd the street mob. The self­termed "moderates" were those who spoke {or law and order but would not speak agai nst the segregaUon that threatened law and order; they would protest the lynching of men 's bodies bu t not the lynching of their spirits: they opposed the mob on the street but not the mob In men'! mindS: they wanted laws obeyed but would no t defend the mora l values on which law is grounded.

Lillian Smith's moderate is not a Southern phenomenon. Such Moderates are clearly' visible and audible in the re­cent reaction against the civil rights movement. Recent com· ments in the P acific Citizen indicate that there are more Moderates among Japanese Americans than we would like to admit. We would do well to take heed of Lillian Smitb's accusing linger and see if it points at us.

Like the "moderate" that Smitb describes, today's Mod· erate values peace, order , tranquillity and respectability above all else.

He doesn't mind a little corruption, injustice or the quiet Iynctring of the huma n spirit, as long as it's done dis· creetly and doesn't disturb his pursuit of the "good life. "

He doesn't mind the shady slumlord profiteering at the expense of the defenseless ghetto dweller. He doesn' t mind unions wh.ich refuse to admit Negro members !

He doesn't mind the poli ti· ci an who turns a deaf ear to Ule urgent pleas of the inner city. These quiet injustices do not shock the Moderate' out of his apathy. But the out· break of violence near at hand makes him s it up and Utink.

He does m ind that; so much so that he tends to become, like Smith 's "moderate", mor· ally conf.used.

F r ightened by the violence of recent urban riots and the cries of " Black Power" he grows as afraid of good as of evil, and evens becomes un­able to tell the difference.

Desperately clinging to the safety 01 the status quo and the disciplining band of law and order, be too easily equates those who cherish and work for freedom and human rights , suct! as Martin Luther King, wi th those who seek to destroy bas ic human values, such as Ku Klux Klan leaders and George Lincoln Rockwe ll.

He puts all these vastly dif­ferent leaders into the same basket, calling tltem " trouble makers" or " extremists. " Fearing the demand "or social change he rusbes 10 support such defenders of law, order , and reaction as Lesle r Mad· dox, George Wallace and Ron· ald Reagan.

Responslbutty Abdic.ted

You bear the Moderate clamoring for law and order and bewailing the breakdown lD lbe moral fiber of Amer;ca,

Yet the sa me Modera te never ra ises his voice against the injustices that threa len law and order and corrode the moral values on which the laws he cherishes are based.

Instead he satisfies himsell by saying he is an uprig',lt, responsible citizen. n ev e r causing trouble. What more can you ask? By such means of selI-congratuiations he abdi· cates his responsibility. Thus, the so·called " moderate" real· Iy is no moderate at all.

He stands for .00 middle position between the e>ctremes as he would like us to believe. Instead he stands outside the ba ttle hoping not to get in· volved. He resembles the three monkeys wbo see no evil , he ar no eVil, and speak no evil.

He would like to mind his own business, to live and lei live. And he gets irrilated when people keep insisting that he can't live and let live with an unjust society. He 's irritated, even mad now. And in his madness of moral con· lusi"n, he, perhaps, unwitting· Iy, is helping to undermine the very foundation s of morality and la IV which he purports to hold so dear,

American cannol afford this kind of "moderation." The JACL cannot afford this kind ot "moderation."

While we sbould ~nou n ce

the 18 wiess and aimless riot· ing of recent months we should not blur the mearungful dis· tinctions betwe .. , good and evil in the name of upholding law and order. Telling the Ne· gro tllat he is trying to push tOo fast while relusing to see the basic inj ustice in our so­ciety is as justifiable as tel.ling a crowd jn a burning thea ter to slow down and walk while hold LOg all the exit doors shut. In both cases you would have to take much of the blame for the resuit ing calamity.

Moral Law

Unlike the " moderat.." thaI Smith describes let us speak for l aw and order and aga inst the injustice that threatens law and order. Let us protesl the lyncbing or men's spirits as vehemenUy as we would protest the lynching of men's bodies. Let us oppose the mob in men's minds as forcefully as we protest the mob in the street. Let us keep the under· lying moral values on whicb la w is based before our eyes a t all times.

Ir! this were our resolve, the JACL at the locai, district, and national levels, would de­clare itsell loudiy and actively on m any pressing local and national issues.

As a starler I feel tha t the JiACL should take unequivo· cal s tands against the housing discrimination and slumlord· ism which forces ghettoed mi· norities to pay higher than average rents for infe r ior housing: against the policies of many la bor unions which discr.i.minate again st minority groups; against the vote of Congress which again refused home r ule to the District of Columbia (a city ,vilere a majority of the residents are Negro) : lor a voluntary school bussing program paid lor by tbe local school dist rict : and lor open housing.

11 we, as an orgaoiza1ion and as individuals, s tand by a t this time and do nolbing bui denounce lawlessness caD we call ourselves good, reo sponsible citizens? I think not.

Would we not be like the apathetic "moderate" that dis· turbs Lillian Smith:

There are many people who are determined not to do wrong but equa lly determined not to do righl. Thus they walk straight into Noth ingness. Are we-the na­tlOD that tlrst embarked on the high adventure of making a world f.lt for human beings to Uve in - about to destroy our­se.lves beca use we have killed our dream?
