WINNIPEG, Man, April % (New
Canadian Dispatch)-Two distinct
and outright measures of racial dis
elimination" directed against Japa-
nese Canadians came under the
attack of Winnipeg Free Press re-
Gently.
The first measure, proposed by
the federal government in its ON
nibus bill, would prohibit the ia
panese from living on the British
Columbia coast, while the second
measure which became law in B. c.
recently, excludes Japanese Cana
dams from the vote.
In its lead editorial, the Free
Press dismissed as purely ficti-
cious" the reason advanced by
Veterans Affairs Minister Ian
Mackenzie that the Japanese
should be controlled for the pur-
pose of national security.
''They are being controlled quite
obviously to satisfy the acial an
tagonism of British Columbians,"
the newspaper declared. "By this
precedent Parliament could order
any minority group, in a nation of
minorities, to live or not to live in
certain parts of the country"
Critical of Mackenzie
Directing its attention to Hon.
Ian Mackenzie and his threat to
resign if the Japanese were per-
mitted to return to the coast, the
Free Press concluded:
This would not be so formidable
a disaster that the people of Can
ada, the government and the Lib
eral party could not endure it."

"In the past year California has
done a tremendous job of industrial
reconversion from war to peace.
But as much as we like to believe
that we are cosmopolitan that all
Californians of different colors and
creeds live together amicably, there
are today signs of rising intolerance
and discrimination. California can
not realize her high promise of &C.
onomic and cultural development
unless her clear thinking people
reject bigotry and adopt measures
to assure equal opportunities for
all.

Winnipeg Free Press Raps Measures
Aimed against Japanese Canadians

But the newspaper was more con-
cerned over the principle which
Mr. Mackenzie wished perpetuated
that any province is entitled to
say whether certain Canadians
should live within it or in certain
parts of it.
Said the Free Press: at could
he justified in wartime only on
grounds of national security. 1t
cannot be justified in peacetime.
1t cannot be maintained without es-
tablishing a precedent dangerous
to all civil liberties in Canada and
contrary to Canada's obligations I'M
der the Charter of the United Ma
tions."
Attacks Elections Act
The 'inconsistence" of British
Columbia's franchise legislation,
which continued to discriminate
against the Japanese while giving
votes to Canadians of Chinese and
Indian origin, drew its share of cri-
ticism from the lengthy editorial.
ION what possible grounds can
a distinction be drawn between
these people and the Canadian ia
panese?" the Free Press demanded.
"Once it is admitted-as it
should have been admitted long
ago-that people Of Oriental orr
gin shall have the vote, it is i'm
possible in common honesty to
say that japanese shall not vote.
This is SO obvious that we may
expect the British Columbia leg
isIature to recognize it soon and
amend its present discriminatory
legislation"

Basic Principals OF Tele-

Are Employed

PRINCETON, N. j., June %.
@R-UltrafaX, newest advance
ment in the television field that
is able to transmit and reproduce
printed or similar forms Of visual
intelligence at the potential rate
Of 1000, 900 words a minute, al
ready has gone through its pre-
liminary stages.
Tests have been conducted over
a special ultra-short wave tele-
vision circuit between New York
and Princeton.
The system was described to-
day by E. W. Engstrona, vice
president in charge of research at
the laboratories of the Radio
Corporation of America here, as
the application of a full e%lectronic
process to the principal of facsi-
mile without any of its mechani-
cal devices.
First announcement of the de-
velopment was made carrier tdday
by Niles Trammell, president OF
the National Broadcasting Co.
While the basic principals of
television transmission are en-
ployed in ultrafax, a number of
important changes have been made
in the apparatus. Because of
the desired high speed. it has
been found more practicable to put
messages, pictures, diagrams and
the like on motion picture film
when transmitting. However, they

the originals provided they can

The "camera"consists Of a
special type device known as a
film scanner and containing a
combination cathode-ray tube and
photoelectric cell to make an cleo
tronic copy for transmission from
the film. Each picture or frame
is scanned at the equivalent tele-
vision rate Of IS to 30 per second,
meaning that many messages per
second can be sent.
At the receiver there is another

Contracts covering millions OF
workers must be changed sooner
or later, but existing contracts re-

For example, although the act
prohibits new closed shops con-
tracts, a closed shop contract no"

be the first step in the new pro-

In addition. these important pro-

bill became law:

other company. From o on
anybody suffering from those prac-
tees can sue for damages.
Unions and employers can sue
each other in federal court Tor

been certain limitations on sucn
suits in the pas).

ployers signing or renewing on
