Use of Japanese Language Dying Fast
Among Younger Generation as Parents
Themselves Are Seen as DiSinterested

TORONTO, Ontario, Canada, Feb
12-!The great majority of Nisei and
.Sansei children in Eastern Canada
are growing up without even a
speaking acquaintance with the
Japanese language. This condition,
has led to some speculation as to
whether any attempt will be made
to establish Japanese language
schools in centres like Toronto.
Up till now there has been sur
prisingly little interest in this ques
tion. and community leaders inter
viewed by The New Canadian were
careful to stress one point: that
even II japanese language were To
be taught, 1t should not be through
q school system like that which
existed in British Columbia.
While movements to re-establish
Japanese language school has been
pronounced in Hawaii and In the
United States mainland, there has
been little ii any voice from Japa-
nese Canadian parents.
Buddhist leader in Toronto, Rev.
T. Tsuji, expressed the opinion
that 1t would be unfortunate If
Japanese Canadians who had as
least some family background which
facilitated the study of japanese
language should give up the study
altogether
A United Church minister, Rev.
K. Shimizu, said that japanese
language may be taught TO those
who required it for specialized
training but it should most certainly
not be on a semi-compulsory basis
as WIS the case in B. G.
Probably the chief reason why
formal japanese Language school
is not likely to be established in
Toronto lies in the general dis
interest of the Nisei parents them
selves; but on the other hand. it
sppears almost inevitable that some
study groups will be organized by
clubs or religious organizations In
the near future, to take up the
study OF japanese.
Judging from the present day
trend here, 1t appears that the days
when japanese Canadians can boast
the knowledge of two language is
limited. Some Nisei parents are
mildly concerned about this while
others see II as an inevitable pro-
cess.

HONOLULU, Hawaii, Feb. 12-
The revival OF japanese language
schools, which were closed at the
beginning of the war, has been
enthusiastically received" by the
majority of the Issei and by con-
siderable number of the Nisei 1t was
reported recently Ey the Hawaii So
cial research laboratory of the Uni
versity of Hawaii. The laboratory
surveyed the japanese American
population to determine its attitude
toward the language schools.
Strongest opposition came from
Nisei veterans groups and from
those who had always opposed Ian
guage schools as a major obstacle
to the assimilation of the Nisei.
They also felt that the school was
a source of adverse feeling toward
the entire Japanese American COM
munity.
Nisei social workers declared that
the children in language schools had
to carry too heavy a burden in 60
ing to two schools as we'll as carry
ing on outside activities.
Strongest support for the schools
came from Isseis who regarded the
schools as symbol of the ordered
life which they knew before the
war; the schools also promised a
return of control over the younger
generation as we'll as the revival
of Issei prestige Isseis also felt
that the rise in Juvenile delinquency
was associated with the closing of
the schools.
A poll taken at the University of
Hawaii in May, 1913, showed that
80 percent of the Niseis approved
the Japanese language school with
only 16 percent opposed. Caucasian
students polled 36.7 percent against
and part-Eawaiians polled 23.5 per-
cent against; but in either case a
substantial majority supported the
reopening of schools
BY the end of 1913 at least "a
schools had reopened, though the
total attendance, at most, was less
than fifth what 1t had been prior
to the war.
Large portions of the japanese
community in Hawaii are still with
out schools, and though more are
expected to open up. 1t is considered
doubtful if the number will be large

Judd Bill Passed by House Unit Without Dissenting Vote

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. IL.
The House Judiciary Committee
Tuesday reported out the Judd bill
for equality in naturalization and
immigration without a dissenting
vote.
This marked the first time in
history a bill giving full naturali-
cation rights to all peoples in the
world has been acted OH favorably
by House Committee.
The bill now goes to the House
A vote is expected within the next
80 to as days.
Congressman Walter H. Judd (R..
Mimi. author of the BILL said he
is frankly optimistic" concerning
the bills chances In the House
Passage Of the EN- measure
would erase the final racial immi..
grafton restrictions raised by the
Oriental Exclusion act Of 1924.
At the same time, 1t would finally
give all legal immigrants to the
United States the right to apply
for naturalization irrespective of
racial ancestry.
Congressman Francis E. Walter
Cd, Penny. chairman of the Judi
ciary Sub Committee on Immipra-
ton and Naturalization, and judo
likened the bill to "six armed div
isions in Japan as far as its effect
upon the stability and future Of
that nation is concerned"
Rep. Walter said the necessity
for its passage as far as our Far
Eastern affairs are concerned is
obvious.
Communism is gaining alarm
ingly in the Far East. As long as
we maintain a racial basis for
Immigration in our country. this
will provide fuel for propaganda
against the United States"
Rep. Judd said: 1--WE cannot stop
the communists from using props
eanda. but we don't have to provide
them with material to use against
US"
They said the naturalization pro-
visions Of the bill were Simple
moral justice for the large bloc of
persons living in the United States
and Hawaii who are branded as
aliens ineligible for citizenship

FilibuSter Curb

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Feb. l2--
The JACL Anti Discrimination
Committee today joined 20 other
national organizations in urging the
Senate to curb the filibuster ana
establish majority rule"
In a joint resolution. the associa-
ions. including such groups as the
American Jewish Congress. United
Auto Workers. American Civil Lib
critics Union and NAACP. declared
that If President Truman's civil
rights program could be brought
to a vote 1t would be enacted.
I'VE. therefore, regard the re-
moval of parliamentary obstacles
that would prevent consideration
of these measures as a vital first
step In the passage of the civil
rights program.
Every consideration of good gov
eminent and democratic rule re-
quires. at the very least. that these
measures be finally brought to a
vote"
The resolution urged the Senate
10 adopt majority rule rather than
the 23 rule to effect cloture Cor

who recognize the Importance Of

the sincerity of the Senate to enact
this program by its determination
