Although the amount approved by

Canadian Waters
Offer Employment
To Many Nisei

TORONTO. Ont, Canada. Aug. l
New Canadian Dispatch)-To the
Nisei, the shores and waters Of Bril-
fish Columbia offer lucrative sour
ces of employment. The fishing in
dustry Is the magnetic force that is
drawing more and more back to the
west coast.
More than 10000 Canadians are
finding full and seasonal employ
ment either as fishermen, shore
workers, or in other positions con-
nected with the industry on the Pa
cific and Atlantic coastlines which
cover more than 10000 miles.
On the Pacific coast, Canada's
large salmon industry yields catches
running up to 190.0Oo,Ooo pounds a
year. Two other important fisher
les are those for hiring and hall
but. The salmon catch is made up
of five species: sockeye, spring, CO.
no pink, and chunl.
B. C.'s salmon industry was start
ed more than 100 years ago and
gradually 1t has grown to where its
output is first. in dollar value, a.
mong Canadian fishery products.
Salmon canneries dot the B. @.
coast In the area called the Inside
Passage. This passage is shelter
ed from the heavy roll Of the ocean
by islands which act as breakwaters.
Most familiar to Nisei and Issei is
steveston wherein lies one of the
largest salmon canneries in the
world and Prince Rupert where
there is the worlds largest cold
storage fish plant.
Other than salmon. herring and
lhalibut. the fishing boats reap a
harvest Of seal-life such as erayfish,
doefish. oysters. CLAIMS, lingcods,
crabs, sharks and whales.
The Canadian fish industry Is ra-
ted high in world trade but Cana
dian themselves are not considered
great fish eaters.

blocks. Is this type of house
satisfactory? Do the walls hold
cold, moisture. etc.?
Answer: Concrete block walls of

should be furred out to create an
air space between the blocks and
the inside walls. In parts of the
country where the weather is warm

and I would like to have it look
a natural pine color. The pine
boards have been installed in a
vertical direction and we would
like to know what to do. Should
we stain it or what?
Answer: To get the effect de-
sired, the first step is to remove
the paint down to the bare wood.
In order to obtain the light
natural color Of pine, staining will
not be necessary. Smooth the
wood by rubbing with fine sand
paper. wipe off the dust. and A.
nish with three coats of top
quality spar varnish. The first
coat should be thinned as recon-

Questions A year ago we re-
placed our gravity coal fired hot
air furnace with a forced air gas
fired furnace. The latter has no
humidiflers and no registers for
heating the basement, which is
rather cool. We have noticed
cracks between the hardwood floor
boards and some slight warpage in
furniture and woodwork. Could
this be due to insufficient moisture
in the air?
Answer: Lack of humidity could
cause wood to shrink, resulting in
open joints in furniture and space
between f1oorboards. A humidifier
should help remedy this condition.
Your local heating supply house
can supply you with a humidifier
of sufficient size for the furnace.
Perhaps the maker of your heating
unit has humidif1ers that go with
the equipment you have. You will
have to heat your basement with
separate heater. as it is generally
Impractical to run a register out
OF the furnace for this purpose.
Dull Mirrors.
Question: We are refinishing
some walnut bedroom furniture
and the mirrors are not bright.
Is 1t possible to have glass cut to
replace the old mirrors? If so,
will the walnut split?
Answer: Your local glass dealer
can supply you, with mirrors or
glass cut to fit the frames holding
the present mirrors. Properly done,
there is no reason why the walnut
frame should be affected.

A Federal Court suit opening here
Monday against South Carolina!
segregated schools has started 6
chain reaction of national sig
nificance.
At issue, for the first time any.
where, is whether segregatine
white and Negro school children il
unconstitutional. A three-judge
Federal Court will hear the argu.
ments.
Many suits have been brought
in other States on equality Of
school facilities. The Supreme
Court has held since 1897 that seq
Iregation can be practiced only II
facilities are equal.
Constitution Cited.
Lawyers for the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement OF
IColored People, representing Negro
plaintiffs in this suit, counter that
segregation itself violates the Con-
Stitution's 18th, Amendment.
South Carolina contends that its
1895 Constitution gives it the right
of segregation through reason
able exercise" of its police power
The suit comes from Clarendon
County. Negro parents there first
charged their children were victims
of discrimination through inferior
school facilities. This approach

Direct Attack on Segregation

was dropped in favor OF the segre-
CATION fight.
These are local developments in
the wake of the suit:
/. The General Assembly put the
State into the school construction
and school bus business for the
first time. Local school districts
previously had done both. The $75
million construction program is
designed to equalize schools for
both races.
Sales Tax Levied.
2. A three per cent retail sales
tax was levied. starting July /, to
help pay for the expanded school
program.
3. School district trustees were
authorized to lease or sell school
property. This was described as a
way to let churches or other private
groups run the schools if Segraga-
ton is banned.
4. Another legislative stratagem
to preserve segregation would per-
NIT pupil transfers from one school
or district to another only with
permission of the affected schools
superintendent. Thus a white su-
perintendent could refuse to admit
Negro students, and vice versa.
Gov. James F. Byrnes directed
the States attorney general to
take over defense of the Clarendon
case. He also announced that the
State reluctantly" would abandon
the public school system before
operating it on a non-segregated
basis.
Committee Studying Problem.
A General Assembly committee
created to study the situation al
ready is on record in favor of
dropping public schools if the
State loses in court. The commit
tee is to report to the legislature
in January.
BY then, it is possible that the
Clarendon case will have been
passed on by the Supreme Court.
An appeal from the three-judge
courts decision, no matter what
lit is, is regarded as'inevitable.
The judges here will be John
j. Parker of Charlotte. N. c., chief
judge of the United States Fourth
Circuit Court of Appeals, and
South Carolina District Judges
George Bell Zimmerman of Bates
burg and j. Waties Waring Of
