JACL TO HONOR NISEI WAR DEAD

OF THREE WARS IN MAY 25 SERVICE

LOS ANGELES-Because 01 the attempl by the County 10 buUd their case around the J apanese slereotype of the World War Il period - the cold, c rue 1, power-hungry violent, sadistic Oriental, JA­CL chapter presidents in Southern Call1ornia we.re be. ing encour aged by Jeffrey Y. Matsui, national associale di­r ector , to personally witness lhe current Civil Service Commission hearings over the dismissal of Dr. Thomas No­guchI.

ty In the coroner's oUlee and the No. 1 assistant to the coroner, appeared to Matsui as the "chief wilness In the case against NoguchL"

Suob 1& a IBmple of where leatlmonl' of a county wit· n_ _s deslroyed by the delenle but not reported in the media, lIlatsul pointed out.

Mataul said. "This I, • cale at a persecution of an In­dlvidual because of his Japa­nese ancestry."

More than a year ago, the County tried to stop the ap­pOintment of Dr. Noguchi as coroner - "their rationale be· ing that be lacked experi­ence and skill," Matsui re­caJJed. "Today, such a state­ment would nol hold water as too many professionals who have worked with Noguchi would lestlfy to bls compel-

ence." 'B7 An7 Means'

The present hearings are, in Matsui's opinion, an at­tempt by the County to dis­miss Noguchi "by any and all means."

UAll Americana have a tar .. stake in the hearing. Fair play and justice can be preserved only througb a concerned and alert publlc. Find out wbat', happening by attending the hearlngs."

"50 don't be surprised when the hearing degenerates fur· ther into a cesspool of in­nuendoes and hearsay evi­dence depicting Dr. Noguchi as the personification ot the World War II propaganda of the 'Jap'," Matsui declared.

Specla1 Q) ~b. PacUlc CIUleD

WASHINGTON - For the urst time, Nisei war heroes of three wan will be honored when the J apanese American Citizen League conducts its annual Memorial Day services al Arlington National Ceme­tery this Sunday morning, May 25, beginning at 9:30 o'ciock, in Section 34. accord­ing 10 Ira Shimasald, chair­m an, National J ACL Arling­ton Cemetery Committee.

And another first is that the J unior J ACL will participale m the official activities, there­by demonstrating that they too understand and appreciate the supreme sacrifice made on behalf of J apanese Americans, Shimasald said .

Key Kobayashi, a former Washington, D.C. J ACL Chap­ter Chairman and a ve teran of G-2 service In the P acifi c, will officiale al lhe May 25 services thaI will be held al the graveslle of Sgl. Haruo ishida, in Section 34.

Remaining schedule of the hearin gs was May 19, 20, 22, 23, 26, 27, and 29, all start­Ing at 9:30 a.m. al the County Hall of Administration. Exact room number should be ob­lained al the Information Desk, as rooms are subject to change, Matsui advised.

pening talks preview scope of hearing We in JACL who tend to

identify our youth as filled with zealous concern for all minorities, and as enthusiastic liberals, forget that their r anks include many w bo are unconcerned and uncommit­ted. Perbaps we tend to p ro­jecl v.isbfully the broader perspective and social con­cern upon our young people, tha t we bave failed 10 carry ourselves.

The {act of the matter is that I suspect a minority of older Sansei are concerned and committed to the con­cepl of cultivating true bro­therbood. and eliminating so­cial injustice. Inasmucb as I also believe that a minority of Nisei. in and out of J ACL, are really in the same bag, we need to belp eaeb other.

The question of "Where have all the Sansei Gone?" is less an indictment of JACL, than it is an important ques­tion Cor young adult groups like the YJ As of Chicago to b elp us answer.

The J ACL is a respected o rganization whieb is trying to be relevant in a fast- mov­ing and tough society. It can be a more effective vehicle for helping effect needed so­cial change, with the active concern and energy that only y outh brings.

In addition to the 22 Nisel who were killed as members of the 442nd Regimental Com. bal Team in World n. S / Sgl. Icbiro Shimomura wbo served in the Korean War and L t. Grant Henjyojl who was re­cenUy ldlled in the Vietnam War wiU be honored in these new traditional riles that have been observed since 1948, wben the first Nisei war dead were interred in Ar­lington National Cemelery.

Sbimasakl noted that there are many firsts about this year'. traditional serv­ices. One Is that, as men­tioned earlier, Japanese Ame.rican war dead of three wan wUJ be honored.

Another Is thai the .erv­Ices will be beld in Seolion 34, where in addltlon to Lt. Henjyoji , Pvt. Stanley T. Oba, Pvt. Roy K. Shiozawa, T / 4 Georre Yamaruchl, Srt.. Harno Ishida, and PFC Tamouu T. Ku,e are burled. Still another fi rsl is that

Floral Tributes

Following the gravesl te services, J ACL members and friends will pay floral lrlbules al the graves of all 24 J apa­nese American war dead in­terred in the nation's most ha llowed cemetery.

Shimasald observed thai though the National JACL contributed funds (or the wreaths and floral tributes, this past year the 0 I' ego n Nisei Vets conlr ibuted $25, the 442nd Veterans Associa· lion of Southern California $40, and Mr. Chosei Kuge, whose brother lies in honor­ed glory in Arlington. $15. He welcomed additional contribu­Hons to this annual e v e n t which honors the J apanese American war dead o( three wars.

Bishop Tsuji to Keynote S, F, Rites

As leaders within the J A­CL, chapter presidents have a ..z:eSl1ODslbillty and obUsa­tlon to encourage others to get first·hand information on the case and not depend entirely on the news coverage in the press, r adio or TV, Matsui added.

Fean Substantiated

The So. Call!. JACL OUice had obtained a copy of the formal ebarges from the coun­ty against the deposed coroner several weeks ago. After read­ing them. Matsui related his fears at the PSWDC Conven­tion .

"Our worst feara were verified on the openlDr d~y of the hearIDr this week as lIhrtID Weekes, de put y county counsel, made his openinr statements," Matsui told tbe chapler presldenll.

"Be spoke emotionally as he showed Dr. Norucbl as a man wbo smiled ,Iedully as he v'lewed the char· coaled remains or a hell­coper crash, made secre­taries era w I, threatened otber employees with pbys­lcal barm. It was also im­plied thai Lewis S'wYer. &

Negro coroner's aide whom Noguchi used as h15 chaut· feur, died last. week because Noruchl had worked blm to death."

LOS ANGELES - During the flrsl week of the Civil Service Commission hearings In the Dr. Thomas T. Noguchi csse, it was the county gov­arment's show.

Somewhere in the seeond " eek which began last Mon­day (May 19) , it would be the suspended coroner's tum to unwrap his detensive.

And in the ttnal week, there will be a review from both sides and the three-member commission will take the case under advisement. At some futu re reg u I a r Wednesday Wednesday meeting of the commission, a decision can be expected.

Because ot the widespread public inlerest in tbe Nogu· chi case, the Civil Service Commission broke with tradi­tion to let radio and TV re­porters cover the quasi-judi­cial proceedings. The commis­sion had ruled twice against them but reversed the ban only days before the hearings began on May 12.

OpenID, statements

In their opening statements, Depuly Counly Counsel Mar­tin Weekes del a i led the charges which led 10 the sus· pension of Dr. Noguchi last Mar . 18 from his $3I,104-a­year job; while Godfrey Isaac. allorney for Noguchi, replied the charges were not true and cannot be proved. Isaac called them a t·smokescreen".

The naturalized Japanese American coroner, still under six-month probation at the time of the lale Sen. Robert

Kennedy's assassination in Los Angeles, was described in the opening stalemenl by Weekes as a man in need at psychi­atric care as Dr. Noguc:hi danced in bi, olllce wbile waiting for the senator to die.

" 1 am going to be famous," Weekes quoted Nogucbi as telling associates who were present. "I hope he dies, be­cause If he dies then my in­ternational reputaUon will be established."

To the contrary, Isaac said in his opening statement, Dr. Noguc:hi revered Robert F. Kennedy and "If he could bave given part of his life for Kennedy to live, he would have."

Kennedy AutoPIT

Noguchi did perform the autopsy and won pralse for the manner in the handling at the case. Supervisor Kenneth Hahn caUed It "probably the the most thorougb medical and scientific examination ever made on an indlvidualH

•

Los Angeles County was not about to have the repercus· sions that accompanied the as­sassination of President John F. Kennedy and the Warren Commission.

And after the second of two helicopter crashes wit h a heavy loss of life, Weekes told the commission Noguchi did another "dance Ln the flames" and said "Isn't it nice ... isn't it nice".

Then two big airtines fell into the ocean near the air­port. II And the number at bodies was growing larger and

larger" as Weekes put It. But all this work for the coroner's omce still did not satisfy No­guchi, wbo had by then be­come fixated by a ''magic number" of 14,000 deaths to have been processed since be­ing named coroner in Decem .. ber, 1967, the county counsel continued.

IhlrI.q Bud&'el Time

tel's was at budget talks in bIa olllce and be was only sayinl wbat he feared mlgbt bappen, Isaac countered during bIa opening stalement.

According to Week .. , No­guchi said be boped two B0e­ing 727s would collide in mid­air or that a 727 loaded to capacity would crasb into In­ternational Hotel "And amld the Hames, I. Thomas T. No­guchi, stood, and the Pres1l was there ... " This was re­garded as the "Jinal evidence" when Hsickness" overcame the Japanese coroner.

Yet Weekes also injected another incident to show N ... guchi was not always tbls way wben be first joined the coro­ner's office as deputy medical examiner in 1961. He once re­vived a victim. But this w .. be for e "sickness set In", Weekes said.

Of course, th is doesn' t happen overnighl. and I realize thaI J ACL is still a Nisei organi· zation. It will not continue so thougb , and we would like to see young adults interested enougb to speed the advent of Sansei into the leadership r anks of this organization.

SAN FRANCISCO - Bishop Kenryu Takasbi Tsuji of the Buddhist Churcbes of America will be keynote speaker al the annual Memorial Day Services at Golden Gate National Cem­etery al San Bl"uno. The Serv­ices will be beld from 10-lJ a.m. on Friday t May 30, in Section R of the cemetery.

Following the services, the graves of 89 J apanese Amer­Ican war dead will be indiv­idully decorated with flowers with the assistance ot San Francisco Boy Scout Troop 29.

Matsui further charged that after the first three hearings, the coverage in the press and TV uhave been slanted to make the doctor appear as an Oriental ogre."

Those who have attended the hearings were as shocked as Matsui by lbe way the hearings have been reported, since lestlmony of the county witnesses have been full 01 contraditions and hearsay.

EDC-MDC CONVENTION-CINCINNATI, AUG, 29-SEPT. 1: SEATTLE - The Rev. MIneo Katagirl was among those eight formally norminated to the seat vacated in the City C 0 unci I by the late Paul Alexander.

Although tbe Sansei has little patience with the pasl, h e sees the relevance of the past to the present around the issue of the repeal of TiUe 11. He sees less relevance in the experience of his parent generation in "relocation cen­ters," than in the grim possi­bility that fellow Americans, with unpopular ideas or ob­jectionable lactics, might be locked up without due pro­cess. Thus we see a lot of youth!ul interest in the repeal campaign

Althou,h many Nloel may not really understand ttu. Asian identity thing, it is one phenomenon that has helped project Japanese Americans Into the American eye and conscience.

Just as Dr. Hayakawa has given us a pubLic identity, a minority of Nisei and a larger group of Sansei have compli­cated that Identity by lheir views. In so doing they have helped to move us a lillie way irom the one dimensional Itcreotypes In which we have always been cast.

eonUnued on Po,e ,

These services are annually sponsored by the Golden Gate Nisei Memorial VFW Posl 9879, Japanese American Cit i­zens League. and cooperation of tbe Veterans o! Military Intelligence Language School.

In this connection, Howard Glickstein, acting staff director of the Civil Rights CommisSion, urged in tes­timony to a House Judiciary Subcommittee that the ban on literacy tests should be extended beyond the Southern States. He reminded the Subcommittee that 13 non-Southern states still require that a citizen prove his literacy in order to cast a ballot-Arizona, Califor­nia. Connecticut. Delaware. Hawaii, Idaho, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming.

" Literacy tests should not be permitted as long as any group in the population is given an inadequate education," Mr. Glickstein said.

Frying Pan

Donver, Colo. JENNIE'S BIOGRAPHER - Ralph Martin's name

probably doe n't ring bells wilh today's crop of Nisei and 'an5I'i, but it should. He Is the biographer of Ben Kuroki. isei hero of the Army Air Force in World War 11. MarUu. Stars and trip<'s corrcsr..ondcnt Rnd Yank l\1agazine writer, told of Ben Kuroki s strug­gle 10 win acceptance ill the armed force of his own country in the memorable book, "Bo;t From Nebras­ka". It WAS one of lhe first, if nollhe flrsl Ume a Nisei had been the subject of a book distributed nationally. Perhap the book was bit a bit ahead of its time and memories of the war were too fresh. At any rate it enjoyed only moderale success, which is the fate of most books, and Martin went on to other writing chores.

His lalest book, the 19th as I recall, is "Jennie." the story of Winston Churchill's mother. It is enjoy­ing phenomenal success, ranking al the top or near it on various best-seller lists, and has gone into its eighth printing. No one, not even Martin, expected it 10 do so well, although he had enough confidence in his malerial to cancel his contract with a publisher and take it to another who was willing to commit himself to issuing a second volume on Jennie's laler life.

Martin was in town for personal appearances to promote his book, and he recalled over a sandwich that he had been deep in work on it when his good friend Larry Tajiri died. In earlier visits they had dis­cussed the book, and it seemed only mUng that it should be dedicated to Larry. And so it is. We talked about Larry's marvelous talent and mourned that it was snuffed out so soon. Martin and Tajiri had planned to collaborate on a play, but that's about as far as they got Both were struggling to make a living; neither had the means to take time to work on such a gamble.

But with "Jennie" doing so well, Martin just might be able to invest the time necessary to write a play. It may not be the one he and Larry tan.-ed about, but again it just might be. It just might.

• • • PULSE-TAKING-Shortly before Martin's arrival,

we were visited by another writer of long acquaint­ance, Masaru Ogawa, senior editor and director of the Japan Times, Tokyo's largest English language daily. California-born and reared, Ogawa went from Colum­bia University to Japan in the late 'Thirties to pursue his education, and there he became one of Japan's outstanding editors. Ogawa Is traveling through the States--,Seattle, Denver, Sl Louis, Chicago, New York, Washington, Atlanta, Dallas, Los Angeles and San Francisco--on a pulse-taking tour at the request of the Yoshida International Education Foundation.

Mostly he is interested in American public opinion about Okinawa, the U.S.-occupied island roughly mid­way between Japan proper and Taiwan. The United States has acknowledged the "residual" sovereignty of Japan in Okinawa, and now Japan wants to know when she can regain administrative control. Ogawa says hardly a day goes by without some kind of Oki­nawa story appearing on the front page of Japanese newspapers. Okinawa has beeome an issue heavily charged with emotion among the Japanese, particu­larly the leftists. The government of Prime Minister Sato realizes that something must be done, and the shape of that something may be a timetable for Oki­nawa's return.

The Nixon administration is well aware of Japan's desires. Much of Foreign Minister Aiehi's visit to Wash­ington next month is expected to be concerned ,vith the Okinawa issue. But Ogawa is likely to find on his tour that the rank and file of Americans are preoc­cupied with many matters that have a higher priority than Okinawa. Ogawa was too polite to say it, but general ignorance on the Okinawa matter may well be the fault of thes media. The newspapers and TV com­mentators have virtually ignored the subject. Chances are we'll be hearing a good deal more about it before long.

Volpe slights Chinese at Gold Spike rites SAN FRANCISCO-The Chi­nese Six Compo.nics IOlt week (Moy 13) urged Pre.ldenl Nixon 1..0 give proper recognJ· tion 10 Ibe 12,000 Chinese worker. who buill the West­ern link of the lranscontlnen­ta.1 railroad.

"Their monumental dee d wal monumentally mangled" by Transportation Secretary Jobn A. Volpe In the princi­pal address May 10 at the Gold Spike Centennial cele­bration, said Dennll Wong, president of the Chine.. or­ganization, In a telegram to the Wbite House.

Wong said Volpe's speech, in which he described the railroad building 01 "a tri­umph of American knowhow." was "a deUberate distortion ot American hJstory."

Volpe's failure to make any mention ot the Chinese work crews ot the Central Pacific Railroad stunned a San Fran­cisco delegation from the Chi­nese Historical Soc let y ot AmerJcan sitting on the same platform at the Promontory, Utah, celebration.

live ot the State of CalIfornia, I implore you to make pubUc apology to the Chinese com­munity."

12,000 ChInese

Mrs. Wong, a former teach­er and a four-generation Cali­fornian. said that more than 12,000 Chinese worked build­ing the Central Pacific over the Sierra to its meeting point at Promontory with the Union Pacilic.

Volpe's tailure to give an,. credit to the Chinese labor­ers. who used pick and shovel and blasting powder to carv. out the difficult Sierra cross­Ing, Inturlated a San Fran­cisco Cblnese delegation sit.­ting on the platform at Pro­montory as Volpe spoke.

The principal orator a' Ihe Gold Spike celebartlon, the former aepubllcan Gov­ernor of Mauaeh11llleia, balled the jolnlnr of the raUs .. "a trIumph at American knowhow." He spoke of the formidabl.

work of boring the Sierra train tunnels and said. "who else hut Americans could chisel through mil.. of lOUd granite?"

100th anniversary of the Japanese Immigration to

America. Singled out were the oldest man and woman in the area: Mrs. Juko Nakashima, 77, and Kaku­saburo Korematsu, 92. -Hayward Daily Review.

Wong said "It was deplor­able that the men who built the Impossible railroad were not recognized" after histori­ans and the Chinese Historical Society had spent years pre­paring to use the occasion of the centennial to pay a tribute to them.

"In this day of concern over student unrest," he said, "we are equally concerned that a department ot Government fails to relate truthtully at a national celebration the con­tributions ot every minority group to the building of this country.

Other speakers did make some passing reference to the Chinese railroad workers and to the Irishmen who largely built the Union Pacific.

Members of the San Fran­cisco Chinese delegation on the platfonn were Chines. Consul General Chou Tung­hua, Philip P. Choy and Thomas W. Chinn, the lalter

Kurata asks for reconsideration TORONTO - Toronto lawyer Arthur Maloney said the On­tario Provincial cabinet should reconsider its "hasty" decision to remove Judge Lucien Ku­rata from the bench.

The Toronto judge was dl.s­missed earlier this month after a report tabled In the Legislature found him unlit to serve "by reason ot misbe­havior,"

Maloney, one of two law­yers who represented Kurata at a public Inquiry belore Justice Donald Keith, sald the haste In tiring Kurata was as hard to accept as the report that condemned him. He ask­ed that Kurats be allowed to appeal before the cabinet to argue the commission verdict.

"There are many appealable grounds in the report and r greatly hope the cabinet will reconsider and allow us to draw their attention to them." Malone ysaid.

''I (01 a bad, deal, a bad deal;' ""Id Kurata. who re­sl&'ned as reeve of S,vansea shortly before his appolnl­menl to the bench In 1966. Be said he was "not rreaUy surprised" at Keith's deci­sion.

Three Char,e.

Justice Keith held eight days' hearings in March to in­quire into c:harges that Kura­ta, 46:

I-Tried to kill himselt Sept. 1 last year;

2-Mistook Policewoman Marlene Watson for a prosti­tute, invited her into his office and indecenUy touched her; and,

ground of misbehavior will be used against him by his fel­low lawyers 10 debar him when he resumes the private practice of law. The tlrst Ca­nadian Nisei jurist clalmed If the inquiry were conducted as a court trial, he would have been acquitted.

Maloney said Kurata should have been given an opportu­nity to comment on the re­port to the cabinet-which is­sues orders-in-coUDeil - be­tore the final decision was made.

"The decision to fire Judge Kurats without giving us an opportunity to a p pea I to them." said Maloney. "was hasty and high-handed."

"Cabinet meetings, of course, are secret but there is a pro­cedure that aUows Interested groups to present briefs to them. Various labor bodle. do that sort 01 thing, for instance.

Unprecedented Step

"I'd like to see us allowed to present a brief to the ceb­inet, to all of them, to part of the cabinet or maybe to a committee of the cabinet.

"Unprecedented? Maybe so. Bul 10 Is the procedure Ihat resulted In Judre Ku­rata'. dlsmissat."

Kurata wa. thorou(hly roasted In Ihe reporl whlcb said be "did not frankly tes­Ilfy ... created a credIbil­Ity (ap . . . his stor:!' Is childishly preposterous."

Justice Keith's report also took broad swipes at Maloney and lawyer Bernard Cugel­man wbo appeared as a wit­ness for Kurata.

Cugelman, a young lawyer two years out of law school, te.tilied he was defending a man who was charged along with Mrs. Lonsberry and he met her about that tlme. They ta lked quietly and normally, be • a I d, and she certainly didn't seem Uke a woman who had ju.t been t h r 0 u g b a frightening experience.

Jusllce Keith described Cu­gleman's testimony as "having no value whatsoever. His de­meanor and deportment In the wilDe.. box did nothing to enhance my oplnlon ot hi. veracity."

Would Do II Apln

Justice Keith referred to Cugeiman as "the Ineffable Mr. Cugelman ... "

CUrelmsn commented that It was "the commlssloDer'. l'rerorallv. to accepl the evidence of a common pros­titute aDd drur add I c t aralnst thai of myself aDd Jndre Kurata. "If I found myself In the

'ame position again I would still come forward with my evidence In spite ot the roast­ing I received from the com­missioner both In the court and in his report u

Justice Keith was critical of Maloney tor not asking Mrs. Lonsberry If she r e c a II e d speaking to Cugelman.

Disturbed

"I'm particularly disturbed,u said Maloney. "that the com­missioner tailed to understand that Mrs. Lonsberry was on the witness stand, told her story, was cross-examined by me, then left the hearing ... all thi. happened before Mr. Cugelman came to me to tell m~ about ~,is conversation Wlth her ...

"Well. I guess it's not the end 01 the world," he said. 1 don't know what I'm going to ... well, we'll just wait and see,!)

FlDdlnr.

Justice Keith said: "HIs (Kurata's) story with respect to the reason Policewoman Watson was in the room is childishly preposterous and not to be believed for one mo­ment."

Justice Keith'. report Is an inch thick and goes Into the testimony of each witness in detail seldom found In even the most searching Supreme Court case.

It concludes with a halt­page tiUed simply: "FInding."

This was: "For the reasons set out in

the toregoing report and the conclusions which I have ar­rived at, I find that Provincial Judge Kurata is by reason ot his misbehavior unlit to serve as a judge, and hence is liable to 'be removed from office be­tore attaining retirement age,' pursuant to the Provincial Courts Act, Statute ot Ontario 1968, Chapter 103, Section 4."

No HesllatloD

Justice Keith said he bad no hesitation In accepting the evidence ot Policewoman Wat.­son, who he described as "of unblemished cbaracter, mar­ried. young, a respected mem­ber ot the Metropolitan Police Force, engaged in the protec­tion ot women and children from assault, indecent and otherwise, who s e evidence with respect to matters while she has observed in the course ot carrying out her duties is regularly accepted in courts such as those over which Judge Kurata presides."

"Does Volpe speak for tho AdmlnlstratloD?

"We petition to your (Teat ofttce for a redreu to cor ... rect the record for hlslo..,. for the benetll of all Amer­icans."

Wong said the Six Compa­nies, a national Chinese pub-lic s e r vic e and legislative body, spoke for 300,000 Chi­nese In the United States. The tormal name ot the organiza­tion is the Consolidated Chi­nese Benevolent Assn.

SAN FRANCISCO - Assem­blywoman March K. Fong de­manded a public apology last week (May 12) from Secre­tary of Transportation John A. Volpe for ignoring the thousands ot ChIne.. who labored in the building ot the transcontinental railroad.

The Oakland legislator, the first woman of Chinese des· cent ever elected to the As­sembly, was outraged by Volpe's neglect of the Chinese workmen in a May 10 speech at the Promontory, Utah, cen­tennial celebration marking completion ot the railroad.

"As you must know/' Mra. FODg said in a leIegram to Volpe, "many ot these work­ers performed their labor UD­

Unlike Sec. Volpe, the three were well aware that non. ot the Chinese railroad work­ers were Americans. In tact, 1oreign-bom Chinese were barred for years from becom­Ing citizens.

• BLACK STUDIES PROGRAM

By 1970, virtually. every major college or univ~r. sity in the country will have a special Black Studies program, devoted to the study of the Negro past, the Negro psyche, and the Negro accomplishments in politics, the arts, literature. and public affairs. Many of these courses will be taught by men and women who will not have advanced college degrees or other con· ventional academic credentials.

Five years ago, only a handful of the institutions of higher learning offered such courses.

Similar emphasis for Asian American studies has emerged in recent months on various campuses in California.

If the Black Studies program is to be that fashion· able by 1970-like the fashion of other exciting con· cepts. one wonders if it will fade away as fast. The "God Is Dead" thesis flashed in and out, if you re­member.

Further, the experience at San Francisco State suggests a black studies program exclusively for blacks is not that durable. It attracted more than 500 en· rolees for 11 courses in the 1967·68 fall·winter quart· ers when it commenced. Within a year's time, the size of classes had shrunk to a fifth or less of their original enrollment. Of course, many of these students by this time were manning the barricades for a more urgent reason-to establish an Ethnic Studies department as a declaration. one might say, of independence on the part of black university students.

It is our hope that once the di~nity of the Black American is restored in the acaderruc grove and keen· er awareness to the significance of racism 10 the American experience is developed, the need for Black chauvinism can be radically reduced so the natural curiosities of students-blacks and non· blacks - will erode the distinction between black studies and ordin· ary course work.

On the other hand, if the Asian American courses continue to grow and hold fast, the social scientists in another decade may be in an undesirable position of avoiding the trap of comparing these two ethnic studies programs. . . .

VERY TRULY YOURS

That chap from Japan is still around in the Ice Capades-the West Company, that is. Unbeknownst to me at the time we reviewed Mitsuko Funakoshi's glittering performance in Los Angeles with the East Company, the high·flying Sashi Kuchiki was in Hono· lulu dazzling the audiences. Sashi also has married a member of the corps, Christine Wood of Toronto, and they plan to make Toronto their home when not traveling, according to Star Bulletin reporter Dick Gima, who straightened out our misapprehension . . . PC circulation manager Yuki Kamayatsu has an eye for arranging flowers with a mod dash and her in· novations have decorated the office over the years. This past week, two artichokes which husband Charles thought he was raising for his salad dish were mouth· watering pieces in a vase on top of a filing cabinet. Only the mayonnaise was missing!

Too good to skip: Our education·minded wife Micki tuned a TV tpecial on seals and penguins last week for our daughters to watch. As soon as Micki went back to her chores in the kitchen, Patricia rin kinder· garten) switched channels to watch "Truth Or Con· sequences" instead. Ten minutes later, Micki return· ed and Patti flipped back on the special; "Mommie, you can watch your seal and penguin show now." The generation gap has started in our household.

• • • SUBSCRIPTION RATES

A question has been raised as to what "selected organizational groups" comprise in order to qualify for the special gift subSCription rate of $2.50 per year. In the main, these are organizations working with JACL in the area of civil rights and human rela· tions, such as the American Civil Liberties Union, Ur· ban League, NAACP, etc.

Gift subscriptions by chapters or individuals to schools, teachers, libraries and other "educational in· stitutions" are $4.50 per year with added savings if a longer period of subscription is desired.

Chapters have also been urged to send gift sub· scriptions to state and local public officials at the special rate of $2.50 per year by the National Public Relations Committee, which has initiated its lroject to send the PC to aU 100 U.S. senators an those representatives who have JACLers among their con· stituencies. By 1971, it is hoped that the chapters will pick up the Public Relations Committee project and their own.

As Attorney General 01 CaI­ilornla at the time, Warren played a major role in the roundup.

More than a year ago Mr. Uno wrote to the chief justice, asking him to acknowledge his wartime mistake. Warren didn't answer. Instead, he turned the task over to an ex e cut i v e secretary, who wrote that "it would serve no good purpose to dredge it up at this time."

Three weeks ago Mr. Uno wrote again, urging Warren to make u a retraction or ad­mission of your error in judg­ment."

A public torum in Berkeley, Calif. recently brought out the divergent views that are h.ld by Nisei. Some 01 these view. retuted the stereotype of the polite J apanese.

If Noguoht loses after aU it will obviously be be­cause the deck Is prestacked against blm, and not even Isaac could save him.

Ethel Field remlnd. d m. of a Nisei by the name 01 Betty Ogawa, who during World War II, was paid by the U.S. government to spy on her fellow Japanese, Issei In particular. She was as­signed to tollow designated persons (who, as it turned out, were pertecUy innocent) even into churches, and report on their aotlvities (If any). Her boy friend, a Caucasian. showed me her picture. And with great pride described his girl 's VIP work for the gov­ernm.nt. Wbat he took pride in just happened to turn my stomach.

Though I didn't go any­thing disloyal to the U.S. gov· ernment (I always thought I was an American and tried to be a good one), I did draw the Une as to how lar I would go in "loyalty" to any coun­try.

At that time (about 1943-44) my husband was sta tion­ed in Fort Knox, Kentuckv. He used to tell me to be mind­ful of the fact that his mail was often censored.

With the closing of the reo location center in 1945, hun­dreds of returning youngsters were enrolled again at Gau­ert. It was no longer the same school which was lett by some during evacuation in 1942. Miss Mahon had retired In 1945 aft e r serving for 27 years. The school was no longer 98 per cent Oriental. One-third of the students were Negroes who were coming from the South, and one-third were Caucasians and others, including many from the near­by city housing project. And on hand to greet them was a teaoher beginning his first year as the principal.

The School Board was for­tunate that someone with Mr. Allasina's qualifications was avaUable to succeed Miss Ma­hon.

He, too, was the son of im­miln'ant parents. He grew up In Wilkeson. a small town in neighboring Pierce County, and his friends were those of many nationalities. He was the tlrst youth trom there to attend university and un­doubtedly inspired other to attend. He began teaching when he was barely 19 and worked toward a coUege de­gree during summer school. His background eventually led to his publishing his doctor's thesis on a set ot illustrated books for teaching Engllsh to the foreIgn born. Tbey are now a standard text in this field.

Mr. Allaslna had taught art. music and pbysical education and put all three to work as he met the cballenge of inte­grating the school. He believes that children who sing to­,ether, play instruments to­gether and partiCipate In

Mrs. Roberta (Beppu) Tamura. Mrs. Penny (Beppu) Fukui, Mrs. Jean (Kusumoto) Sumida. Mrs. Ar· lene (Okawa) Kadoshlma and Mr. Ken Aokl.

The program for the eve· nlng included cla.ieal Japa­nese dance by Marianne Ha­rada, Barbara Kano. Wendy Twami and Susanne Umeda. Music was provided by stu· dents taught to play the organ by Mr. Allasina and the 4th grade chorus. Thus, was set the Japanese atmosphere and what was to tollow.

On band to do honors tor the Japanese parents was Mr. Bob Roberts, prominent news commentator and newscaster.

Los Angel.s Two orranlutlons have ppod up during the pnst

year dedicnt«l to th. concenlS of the oriental American or, in broad.r terms, Asian Anler­iC'an. They A~"um~ the names of Oriental Concel~1 and Asi­an An"rican PoUtical Al­liance.

Supposedly, these two groups are concenled with the

" Is There an Asian American

problems of th. Japanese, Chinese, Filipino. and Korean American communities. How­e\ ~er, activities hnve been con­centrated henvily upon Japa­nese and Chinese issues such as Dr. Hayakawa and Noguchi and Chinatown.

Symposiums and confer­ences sponsored b)' these groups have been geared to those of Japanese or Chinese origin despite the fact that they are adverUsed as being oriental. Asian or yellow. More like~' than not, the .peakers would be Japanese or Chinese.

Close examination of the et.bJtic membership make-up of these two groups reveal a predominance of Japanese and Chinese Americans. The Filipino and Korean Ameri­can people are sa i d to be ..maled, factionalized and so tew in numbers, that there Is difficulty in seeking them OUI tor membership.

Yet, the people are there and are confronted with t b e oame problems as the Japa­nese or Chinese. .~ a result, a clarifieation

of the ,,'Ords Asian and orien­tal is needed. In due con-6lderation, it seems that an AsIan or Oriental organization and its program activities would emphasize Japanese and Chinese interests and oJtim o\'er Korean and Fili­p ino interests.

On the same vein, Orienlal. er I should SSS, Asian Ameri­can students have been work­ing to establish Oriental, ex­cuse me. Asian American stu­dies classes at L.A. State, UC Davis, Sacramento Stale.

already iItitiated e\asses of its own. Merits of these classes can be questioned. in a recent speech al L.A. State, Yuji Ichioka, acting coordinating Instructor for the AsIan Amer­Ican class at UCLA and past coordinator of the Berkeley class, has stated that there is no qualified instructor or textbook adequate for a course in Asian American studies. He bases his opinion on the fact that the area bas not been tully explored. 11 this statement is valid. then there is also need to detine wbat exactly Asian American studies should include.

Thus the problem posed to members of Asian Qr Oriental groups and those involved in AsIan American Studies. Due to the tact that there is an ethnic stratification of yel­low people wbich does not oc­cur among other minorities such as the blacks and browns. the term Asian and Oriental must he clearly de­tined and established into a viable course of study.

And there were heads of others bobbing in affirmation w ben eve r Weekes emotionally tried to make NoguchI appear and sound like a sick man.

McRoy replied sometimes Noguohl wOllld Jump up from his dcsk, run across the room, slap a woU map and ory, "Thl. Is my Jurisdiction."

In a second look ot coro­ner's a ide Sawyer's work rec .. ord, Isoac hod McRoy admit Snwyer wos not paid over­time but had received 486 hours 01 compensatory tlme­off ond Isooc added that Saw­yer could not certainly have been "overworked" as charg­ed.

U n d e r cross-examlnBtioD, Mrs. Field admitted that on AprU 15 when questioned by Isaac's Investigators and Mrs. Isaac, she could not recall any lIerratlc behavior" on the part of Dr. Noguchi but that her memory was refreshed after r eading the newspaper ac­counts of the charges against Dr. Noguchi and after con­ferring with Weekes and Mc­Roy.

When It came to specltlc charges agalnst Dr. Noguchi, her memory was sharp. She had alleged that Dr. Noguchi appeared livery upset and kept saying he was gOing to a .. a.s lnate certain people In the office and get revenge on Hollinger (county admtni.lra­tive officer) and certatn mem­bers of the Board of Super­visor". But her answers, on cross-examination, became un­certain and full ot "I don't recall clearly" evasions when Isaac pressed her for her memory of kind acts perform­ed by Noguchi tor her and other staff members.

She broke down In tears when Isaac asked her about Sawyer. " Is it not true that on August, 1968, Dr. Noguchi c han g e d Sawyer's Y -rating (Axed rating with no chance o~ promotion) to one of dep­uty with promotional oppor­tunities . . . and that he en­couraged him to go back to school to take up photography so that he could become an investigator?"

Mrs. Field also admitted she knew Noguchi had a lesion on his tongue and took medi­cation for It.

She tostifted Dr. Noguchi had totd her he would sec about having her reclassifi«l into a better-paying job but when she Inquired with Mc· Roy, she wa. told thaI Dr. No­guchi had never made the re­quest. "I didn't know whom to believe," she admlUed.

(To be continued)

When Robert Kennedy was ahot, be said, Dr. Noguchi telephoned Wood's home at 1 a.m. and told Wood's wlfe that he must speak to him about the malter. But she refused to awaken her husband. "This 28-year-old junior clerk re­lused to get out from between the sheets and talk to his chiet," Isaac said. II Wood were employed In private in­dustry, he would have been fired, the lawyer said.

Weekes desorlbed Noguchi a8 a "complex collage" and .ald he inlend«l to tell "the Metamorphosis that is Nogu­chi himsell ... there Is a lit­tle bit of Noguchi In each of us."

Noguchi was charged with overworking coroners aid e Lewis Sawyer, who died of a stroke the previous week. No­guchi once lold Sawyer, whom he used as chauffeur, that he would work him " until be dropped" . . . Hand drop he did," Weekes said, noting that Sawyer's funeral was being held the 88me day.

Overworked?

Weekes said Noguchi work­ed Sawyer lor a total of 486 boun overtime In 1968 and 103 hour. overtime in 1969 January and February. The very day Sawyer was giving testimony against Noguchi's aUeged erratic behavior in of­flce, he collapsed and never recovered, Weekes declared.

Isaac countered by saying Noguchi loved aU his em­ployees and that he "cried when he learned ot Sawyer's death". Isaac added that Saw­yer died of a "terminal ill­ness" having nothing to do with this bearing.

Weekes said Noguchl's of­fenses in office were mosUy agalnst little people, such as "a Japanese secretary, a black secretary and a young kid". The persons he would be call­ing as witnesses will present three types of emotion regard­ing Noguchi: "love" by those who knew Noguchi before his Hsickness"; Hanimosity" by those who knew Noguchi dur­ing his troubles; and "re .. morse" by those who knew him afterwards.

Isaac, In summing up his opening statement, said Ori­entals traditionally suffer in s i len c e when persecuted. "There comes a time. when silence is betrayal, and silence here by Dr. Noguchi would be betrayal," Isaac went on. "Justice is the bread ot this nation. The nation should be

LITERATURE IN JAPAN NEVER HIT

HEIGHTS OF HEIAN, TOKUGAWA ERA HONOLULU - In Japan no p iece of lilerature has reached the heights achieved during the Heian or Tokugawa pe­riods. Lilerature m Japan is. in tacl, "probably declining and weakening."

This is what Nobel Prize winner Yasunarl Kawabata told about 500 pe",on. wbo attended hi. lecture. "The Exislence and Discovery ot Beauty," at the Univ. o( Ha­waii recently.

The Japan .. <e author, who ... as awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature In 1968, spoke in Japan_ while UH Protessor Valdo H. V,glie1mo delivered an EngliAb translation.

Kawabata praised the works e! Tolmgawa poet Basho (16-«-1694) and Heian auihoress Shikibu Murasaki wbo wrole «The Tale of Genji". consider­ed a Japanese classic.

He was pessimistic: about the worth ot literature In Ja­pan since their time.

"U would be truly a heartenln, thini II Japanese literature were actually 1m­proml' a.Dd a new l\oJura· aakl Sbikibu or Basho were on the borlzon." the ,.ray· hAtred author saId. He added that the "great

tnen ot letters" who appeared after Basho and Mura!al<l opent their youthful time and energy In the study and trans­plantation of Weslern litera­ture.

"Many o( them were busY enlightening their fellow J a-

t~e:S:n:':":: u~~e ~~ r:~~ maturity in their own crea­tions gTound in Japanese and Oriental tradition," Kawabata said.

He called these writers ""Ie· tims ot their era," and mourn· ed lhat ihey had nol relained I h e i r Japanese background while studying the Weslern novel.

Kawabata said tbal every natlon,JI\J' has an obll •• Uon .. to present Itself to the world stal.... .barln, Ita wealth and Invltlnr others to "enler Ita • p I r It u a I rea lm. '·

The noled author added that he wondered "whether the age ot the novel mlgbl not be coming to an end H

" I question wbether the novel is the most sullable art fonn or literary form for the present age," he said.

He octen amused hi. audi­ence with IIght-bearled re­marks about his own writings and bis habit of speaking too long on some subject!.

Earlier in his lecture, he called that tbe "ichigo Icbie" unique encounter in his life was when he discovered the beauty ot light lwlnkling on drinking glasses at the Kaha­la Hillon Hotel, where be is staying.

He apologized 10 the audi­ence for dwelling "too long and tediously" on thb wben he intended to speak about "The Tale of Genjl."

"This sorl o( thing is a sign of the crudeDess of my litera­ture and is qui Ie characler­istic of me and my life," be said.

Kawabata is now a reside.Dt scholar at the Univ. of Hawaii where he teaches a graduate course on "The Tale o( Gen­jl." He will return to Japan in June-Hawaii Herald.
