ton of the National Japanese Citi-
zenS Association will be the main j.
tenn of discussion when delegates
from the five provincial chapters of
3 c., Alberta, Manitoba. On;a rio
and Quebec convene on Easter
weekend. April to 6, at the Hotel
Georgia in Vancouver
he hesvv four-day conference
which is preceded by registration
and steering committee meeting
on April 2, will have discussion on
future program on economics. poll
teal action, culture, education, So
cial welfare and recreation, but de-
cisions on these subjects will ne
cessarily HINGE on the matter Of re-
organization
Proposals calling for reorganiza-
ton and modification in the Ma
tional JCCA set-up have largely
stemmed from the financial crisis
where provincial chapters find
themselves unable to meet their
bridget quotas under the present
set-up which is operating under an
emergency budget of 50 800 Most
of this present budget is utilized for
the work o. the full-time national
executive secretary.
Both the Manitoba and Ontario
chapters are proposing new bud
get where part-time secretary
would be employed. Manitoba is
proposing a $4,000 national budget
with $1,000 going to the part time
secretary while Ontario's figure is
$4,000 with $3.50 being paid to the
secretary. Manitoba is also pro-
posing a federation set-up, Quebec
is mooting a rotating national head
quarter system on a provincial ba-
sis, while Ontario is in favor of per-
manent headquarters on a yearly
basis.
Proposals of B. G. and Alberta are
not yet known
As a relief from the heavy agen-
da, conference dance and sight
seeing tour of Vancouver will likely
be arranged. A conference BAN

Flying Enterprise have been
halted. They said work will con-

much more money in the sunken
vessel: the Rostro hauled up
about 100000 worth of sodden
American and British bills last
week.
