THREE CAME HOME
BY AGNES NEWTON KEITH

sssss
Here Is . book Of especial inter-
est TO Nisei.
It Is written by the American
wife OF an Englishman whose work
Is conservation in Borneo. It is
written with simplicity and hnma-
nifty. differing vastly from the war
experience books.
Here is dignity, and here Is hui
mour; here Is terror and fear and
confusion, the living day-to-day,
unknowing what the morrow might
bring. While the degree Of our
suffering is not comparable to those
described In the book, here are the
similar states Of mind we knew SO
well soon after December 7, 194I.
1t would be sheer impertinence
to say we, the Japanese Canadians
suffered as did the prisoners-of-war
the internees held by the Japanese
In Kuching, Sarawak. They suffer
ed the stupid brutalities melted by
revenge, the sort Of savagery In
flicted by a downtrodden and scorn-
ed people suddenly in position Of
absolute power. The brutalities are
q terrible commentary on cause
and effect.
Those Nisei who are familiar
with the Japanese characteristics
viii find themselves nodding and
thinking:
IF that isn't Just like the Japa-
nesel Who else could be such crazy
mixtures Of sloppiness and punc-
tilio. Of kindness and Indifference, of
sympathy and violence2"
All the brutaiities suffered by the
internees and prisoners at t h {
hands Of their temporary masters
could easily have been reversed
but Agness Newton Keith condemns
retaliation. The awful barracks in
which she was forced to exist were
but the same barracks used upon
the natives before the war. When
a liberated "wilite" man beat two
Japanese ex-guards to death with
bare hands, it was the same bru-
tality. Men died under Colonel Su-
ga. the Camp Commandment. Yes
but his whole family was wiped Out
by the bomb on Hiroshima. Wal
is brutal. and breeds brutality or
both sides. There are not two
standards Of brutality. 1t Is CT

This would be done by ships be-
