of the completely inadequate teach

ton. Only vigorous and states
manlike action on a scale common
surate with the urgent need, can
avert a serious national tragedy

Charge Negro With
Discriminating
Against Minority

Washington, D. c. (NNPA) :
An attack on one. minority group
is an attack on all minority
groups, Ben Kiraki, Japanese
American veteran; declared here
last Tuesday in warning colored
people against discriminating
against other minority groups.
Speaking at the weekly lunch
con meeting of he Capital Press
Club, Mr.. Kiroki cited numerous
instances where he had been dis
eliminated against by colored peo-
pie because he was a Japanese.
He said he was discouraged at the
lack of attention colored people
give to the problem of other min
critics.
An air corps veteran of forty
bombing missions in the Pacific,
Mr.. Kiroki said that since his
discharge he has conducted a per-
sonal campaign against discrim-
nation with his own funds.
He bemoaned the fact that after
making twenty-four speeches on
the subject in an eight-day tour
of New Hampshire, he had re-
turned to New York City only to
be struck in the face by colored
man who resented his japanese
origin.
Mr.. Kiroki said he had not been
discouraged by the incident, nor
does he bear any malice toward
colore people, but he urged report
ers present to help present the
problems of other minority groups
to their colored readers.
Mr.. Kiroki is currently engaged
in lining up forces to seek pas
sage of a Preparations bill which
would repay Japanese Niesi for
losses incurred when they were
moved from the west coast during
the war.
The bill passed the Senate last
year but was killed in the House
by motion of Representative
Clare Engle, Democrat, of Cali
fornia, Mr.. Kiroki said.
Mr.. Kiroki's statements were
echoed by Mmonu O'Jike, Nigeriar
writer who also addressed the club
Mr.. O'Jike and Mr.. Kiroki were
introduced by Attorney Charles H
Houston, who also called for &
deeper understanding of other
minority group problems by color
ed people.
