A Glare from the Sun

In its April II editorial the Vancouver pa

third of the japanese I'M Canada, and that if
controls over them were abolished now, the
'whole bunch Of them,' to borrow the Sun
phraseology, would come marching back
A few weeks ago, tire Winnipeg Free
Press published an editorial sharply crticzing
the Canadian governments reluctance to recog-
nize the principles of civil rights regardless of
race, especially on the japanese Canadian ques-
ton. .sg
The Sun maintains that lifting the con-
trolls would interfere with the federal govern
ment's dispersal policy disclosed in 1914 49,
The fact, according to the Nisei in Canada,
Is the dispersal policy is practically completed.
The seemingly alarmed Sun pictures 1900

Rockies are doing quite WELL thank you, and

tion out East to find out that the relocatees are
happy in their new homes.

Open Letter to Editor of Hawaii Times
Dear Editor:
The other day we picked up an edition of
the Hawaii Times and looked at an eyeful of
"'Some of Hawaiis Finest pulchritudinous
creatures.
The underline for the photo of the beauties
stated:
- ''These five University of Hawaii goods
were among the Is contestants for the title of
Japanese queen in the annual Ka Palapala
beauty contest which picks six queens repre-
.sentlng different racial strains. From left to
right, they are: Betty Ariyoshi, Jane Fujii
.trunner-up), Ruth Funai, Mildred Odan win
..ner), and Lily Takiguchi.'
Maybe it's a matter of taste but give us
Ruth Funai and more of her. She has the fea-
lures, the figure (ahem) and wholesome, clean
cut pOse.
Why in the hill wasn't Ruth the winner?
Or was it politics?
Respectfully yours,

AUSSIES FIRM
AGAINST WOOL
FOR JAPANESE

TOKYO, April 25-A brick wal
OF Australian anti-Japanese feeling
Is sitting attempts TO obtain ad.
equate supplies of Australian WOO
for japanese industry reported
Burton Crane of The New York
Times this week.
George Williams. Australian wool
expert. who has been here for eight
months. resigned his post and left
for home. describing his job here
as futile, Crane wrote in his dis
patch.
Crane continued. t...
with the end Of this menth
japanese industry win virtually
exhaust old stocks and will have
nothing to expect except 1900
bales Of the lowest grade Aus
tralian wool. now reported on the
way here. che sole product Of nine
months Of negotiations.
Occupation officials, al
though admitting that the Japa-
nese wool industry is placed in
a grave position by Australians
determination to cut off a mar
ket before the war was her Sc
cond best, are not despairing.
Japanese mills will be encouraged
TO continue operations, even on
the smallest scale, TO keep tech
nicai staffs together. Much staple
fibre will be mixed with WOOL"
Supreme Command officials have
begun inquiries co erni n &
460 600, 600 pounds of American wool
now held by the Commodity Credit
Corporation, to see whether it is
suitable for worsted goods at prices
for sales in Oriental markets.
New Zealand has offered 200. 900
bales OF wool. Inquiries are going
on in South Africa, Uruguay, Ar
gentina and other countries that
supplied wool to Japan before the
war.
Australia's virtual boycott, Su-
prcme Command officials ADMIT, is
a serious blow but the aides still
cling to the hope that Japan's wool
industry may provide substantial
aid toward the country's economic
rehabilitation. They had hope in
two or three years to have virtually
all imported wool manufactured
and exported to provide foreign ex-
change for most essential raw ma
terials. Australian will sell only wool
that is OF such low grades that the
products are not exportable.
Supreme Command officials,
Williams and virtually every
Australian newspaper argued that
Australia's view was shortsighted
in destroying a good market with
out offsetting advantages.
Before the war Japan was a
great understanding country not
a great worsted goods exporter. She
always consumed more than 80 per
cent of the wool she imported. Of
ficials expect such a condition will
return after Japan has re-estab-
lished herself commercially.
The reason for the Australian
Governments stand are described
as purely political, the Labor Gov
eminent fearing it might lose few
votes If it does what every bust
ness interest demands. Australian
groups have been conducting an
intensive anti-Japanese campaign,
with parades reminding voters of
the fate of the Australian Eigth
Division, which suffered some of the
worst Japanese atrocities.

Maryland Roads Unit
Opposes Drains Bill

A bill to correct inadequate storm
drains under and along highways
has been opposed by the Maryland
State Roads Commission.
The bill was submitted to the
General Assembly by the Prince
Georges and Montgomery County
delegations at the request of the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission.
Robert Clapp, Maryland assistant
attorney general. told the Prince
Georges delegation at hearing in
Annapolis yesterday that the State
Roads Commission is responsible
only for taking care of the flow of
surface water at the time highways
are built. If subsequent develop
ment changes the natural flow of
water and increases the demand on
culverts under the highway then
the developers should pay the COST"
Mr.. Clapp said.
Frank B. Smith, chairman Of the
Sanitary Commission, pointed out
that a 100000 bond issue is being
sought for storm drain work in the
two counties during the next two
years. More than $4,0000O0 worth
of work has been reported by sani-
tary commission engineers he said
and of this amount at least $500, 900
must be spent under and along State
highways.
The State Roads Commission with
drew its objection to the proposed
Anacostia River flood control bill.
This bill designates the Sanitary
Commission as the agency to deal
with the Federal Government in
connection with the flood control
work. Mr.. Smith said the repeated
flooding of the Bladensburg Peace
Cross area "had become almost q
State disgrace"

Bankers Hear Snyder
Plea 10 Back Bond Plan

Secretary of the Treasury Snyder
today asked the Nations bankers to
support plan designed to sell
United States Savings Bond each
month to every person with a check
ing account
Robert v. Fleming, president of
Riggs National Bank, told the State
Savings Bond Committee of the
American Bankers Association the
plan was sound because it would
help distribute the public debt to
a greater number of individuals.
The plan, as explained by Mr..
Fleming, provides that the depositor
sign a card authorizing the bank to
purchase bond for him every
month and to deduct the required
amount from his checking account.
The bank, using a Government is
sued franked envelope, then sends
the bono to the purchaser with slip
showing the deductions made for it.
The plan is expected to be in oper-
alton in most banks by June. APP
proximately 500 bankers met at the
Hotel Statler to hear the Savings
Bond Committees plan.

part:
1.-The baseless and unwarranted
charges that some of the directors
of the Mayfower Hotel Corp. were
guilty of fraud is simply the express
sion OF the disappointment of a very
few disgruntled stockholders who
apparently feel that their hope of
making large profits as a result of
their speculations in the stock has
been jeopardized.
Until last December, slightly less
than majority of the stock of the
corporation was controlled by DON
ner Estates. In December the Hill
ton Hotels Corp. acquired the DON
ner stock, consisting Of approx
mately 194,500 shares for $13 a share
cash. This was something less than
a majority. The local directors had
no knowledge of this transaction
until after it had been agreed to-.
The same offer was made to all
stockholders, and remained open for
80 days, during which time it was
accepted by a considerable number
of them.
GA Pct. Owned by Hilton.
approximately "a per cent is now
owned by the Hilton Hotels Corp.
The sale price of $13 per share was
approximately Is per cent above
the open market price of the stock
Immediately prior to the offer. The
Bonner interests sold, as they had
every right to do. The plaintiffs in
this suit apparently did not feel
that the price was adequate and
they refused to sell, as they also
had every right to do. This pur-
chase of stock by the Hilton inter-
ests did not involve a transfer of
corporate assets. So far as the
Mayfower Hotel Corp. is concerned,
its properties remain intact, and
they have not been changed.
"The present healthy condition
of the hotel may be expected to con-
tinue, if not improve, under it's
present management. Any interfer-
ence at this time In the policies of
the hotel and its management, such
as proposed in this suit, can only
adversely affect the interests of
the stockholders. It is the opinion
of the directors that this contract
will result in substantial savings
and other benefits to the business"

Ferquson and Smith Introduce
Bill to Set Up Labor Courts

fair and the least political of our
institutions"
The II labor relations courts
under the bill would be set up in
districts corresponding to the pres
ent United States judicial circuits.
Cases decided by them could be ap-
pealed to United States Courts of
Appeals.
A labor relations court, in review
ing a ruling of an administrative
board, could review the whole case.
If it thought an injustice had been
done, it could hold a new trial.
To speed up operations, a labor
relations court could hand over any
case to one OF its judges for a pre-
trial conference, in which the judge
