Al a time when tht voices of reason and moderation are badly needed, this oullit, whIch can charitably be called the iar right of the Republican party, was recently beard trom espousing causes which would be funny, it they weren't tragic.
The biggest item to me was Its praise of the racist policy of Rhodesia, by passing a resolution commending its voting franchise, which is based on education and income, and not on majority rule.
Another was a resolution to tire Chancellor Heyns of U.C. Evidently they got caught in a dilemma about Dr. S. I. Hayakawa, because tbey could not swallow a resolution to praise the good doctor for his "hard line" sland at S.F. Stale, wben somebody described him as a "liberal."

The annual Festival is many things. It is a viable demonstration of the interracial harmony that is so unique in Hawaii. It is an opportunity to preserve and showcase the J apanese culture that is a large part of Hawaii's heritage, It is an aid to international understanding. It is a stimulus to business and tourism.

'BLACK AMERICANS'
PREFERRED OVER 'NEGRO'
ATLANTA - Young black people did not choose Ihe name UNegro" and would prefer to be called "black Ameri· cans" or "Afro-Americans II delegates to an NAACP co~vention here said.
"The word 'Negro' carries no history because that was the name given to us by white men when they brought us 10 this country from Africa," >aid Andrew Small of Winston-Salem, N.C. UWe didn't choose the name 'Negro! "
SACRAMENTO - California's state colleges and universities, torn by studenL and teacher rebellion, are facing an even more critical onslaught from an aroused State Legislature.
Public opinion against violent aUacks on the educational system coupled with apparent academic reluctance to meet violence bead on has opened the door to a flood of bills, resolutions and consti .. tutional amendments.
Most of them, at this early stage oC the legislative session, are directed at students and faculty members who would disrupt the traditional campus calm. Some, however, would alter the basic structure of higher education as it has developed in California and could, if enacted, have far-reaching and long-lasting eCCecls.
BOWLING TOURNEY OFFICIALS - On hand to greet the participants of the 1969 National JACL Bowling Tournament Mar. 3-8 at San Jose's Futurama Lane are (from lett) top--Sayo Togami, co·chmn., women's division; Ozzie Shimada, tournament chairman; 5achl Ikeda, co-chmn .• women's division ; bottom - Kin Mune, transportation; Ben Kobata, chmn_, men'. division; and KeD Namimatau, housing.
1I1eanwhUe, JAOL Ethnic Concern committee chairman Dr. David l\-liura declared Ihis past week that slate officials have an obltgation to send a mediating team to San Francisco Slate Coliege to resolve tbe dIlterences.
HThe situation at San Francisco State is at an impasse and is intolerable/' Dr. Miura declared. "A prolonged dispute greatly increases the possibility of violence. The lives ot innocent people are in danger and the future of education in California is in jeopardy."
J ACL cbapter presidents and civil rights committee chairmen in California were urged by the Ethnic Concern Committee to write their state legislators and other elected officials.
Slate 01 Slate Speech
Gov. Reagan, never considered a friend ot the academic world, warned clearly in his state of the state speech to the Legislature in J anuary that reaction might go too for.
"Over the years," he said, "the people of Calitornia have gone further than perhaps any other state to make sure that political pressures will not inter.fere with academic excellence.
"There are events which try our tempers and there are times when we are tempted to make changes in the system w get at the destructive and unruly few.
IIBut we must guard against excesses. Extremes ot what· ever source are always dangerous - and otten sell-deteating."
The governor, however, made it equally clear that his concern does not mean that he wants the state, or the Legislature, to stay completely out of the picture.
He said he will sponsor bills that would increase legal penalties for assaults on teachers and students, provide for the expulsion of students or the dismissal of teachers who disrupt classes and close the campuses to ~ff-campus "trouble-makers."
Sirlnt Enforcement
Assembly Speaker Robert T. Monagan (R-Tracy) said he was generally against legislative interference in the operation ot the university and state colleges. But this year, he would be inclined to support legislation that would help in the strict enforcement 01 existing laws or give greater tools to college administrators in controlling campus disturbances.
In addition to the Trade Mart, there will be an EastWest fashion show on Mar. 15 and 16, a cooking demonstration Mar. 19 at the HIC Exhibition Hall, imported talent show and the Jose Feliciano Show Mar. 22 and appearance o! Japanese screen star and musician Yuzo Kayama Mar. 23 at the HIC arena.

Frying Pan
Denver , Colo. A TIME TO DO HONOR-The cerem on y that took
place here n few une!ays ago undoubtedly has ha d Its counterparts ill California, Oregon, Washin g ton , Arizona Ie!aho and other areas w here J apan ese immigran~ broke way from tile railroads a nd m in es and man" yeal ago and set out to till th e land . Here, seven Issei' were presentee! with citations and medals from the Japan Agricultural Association for long service to the cause of agriculture in the United States, and for furthering Japanese American relations.
Just why the Japau Agricultural Association should go to this effort is unclear. but for the Issei so h on or· ed it was a proud day. They. and the wives who.w0.rk-ed side bv side witil them. stood erect as the CI tallon was read:Then Frank Torizawa pinned a green-ribboned medal on tileir lapels. and th eir eyes were m isty
as they bowed in humility and gratitude. . Among the Issei, their names are well k nown m
Colorado. for they have been here a long. long tim e. Kazuma Mikawa from Greeley, Jlfatajiro Watada from Fort Lupton, Takeshi akata from Brighton, Kuichi Inouye from edgwick. Mrs. Tomokichi Matsunaga from Granada standing in for her late husband; Senta Oda from Grand Junction. Jinzo Tanaka from Hen· derson. Sedgwick is in the northeastern corner of the state; Granada. where once a WRA camp stood, is in the southeastern corner; Grand Junction in the far west close to the Utah line. The others farmed in the valley of the outh Platte north of Denver.
THEIR STORIES - What interesting personal stories each of these pioneers must be able to tell, if one could only sit them d own and asked about their lives. Colorado "is a harsh land for farmers. There is drougth and winter cold and summer hail, grasshopper plagues and sandstorms. It takes a sturdy people to till this land, and despite their years men like Nakata, Watada and l\fikawa looked as though they still were able to work a Nisei right down into the ground. Most of these men came when Colorado was stillta young state and they were privileged to see it grow and mature with it

Public housing in
Chicago blamed
for segregation CHICAGO - Federal Judge Richard B. Austin accused the Chicago Houstng Authority on Feb. 10 of fostering racial segregation ot neigbborhood. In its site selections and rental policies for public housing units in Chicago.
In a 21-page opinion on a suit filed by the ACLU three years ago, the judge io giving the CRA and ACLU 30 day. to agree a system to desegre· gate public h a u sin g and change site location practices.
CHA has 54 housing developments, most in neighbor ... hoods with Negro population ranging from 50 pol. on up, the Judge noted.

The Idea Of J apanese studenls being slrong enougb to resist lhe lure oC dope Is a thing of the post.
A comment was made recently at a young .Buddhlst meeting by a minister that many empty glue tubes were found on the grounda 01 our Church.
We CAn no longer take our children for granted. We no longer can turn our heads and Ignore this social cancer.
The problems of narcotics are very comprehensive. It is Impossible 10 cover 0 11 aspects or the narcotic problems in just 15 minutes 0" explain the w 0 r k of the Los Angel.s County Narcotic Commission. the Police Dept., educators, and various agencies who have been seeking answers for the past 10 years.
The reputation we h a v e with other communities makes our town look Uke a hot bed for dope. Some of you have been approached on how bad the situation is in Gardena.
We nil know that this Is not true. It just so happens that our local newspaper prints all 01 the arrests wilich in turn are picked up by the Lo. Angele. Japanese news media.
We were able to speak with only a few of these Issei honorees, and what they were proudest of was not their accomplishments as farmers. not the land they tilled or the crops they grew or the medals they had received. but their Nisei children. Mikawa talked of his ten youngsters, the majority of whom are college graduates. One is a certified public accountant, another a teacher.

Recently I attended a youth coun"il meeting and at th,s conference asked this direct question. How many students in t b e irrespective school. were involved or have been Involved in any sort of glue sniffing, narcotics or dangerau. drugs?
• • • FOR A RIBBON-The weight of the years rested
h eavily of several of the Issei honorees. Their h ands were gnarled and callouse<i One could almost see them thinking Ioack thirty, forty, fifty years, to the hardships and trials, as they stood before those gather· ed to honor them and heard the citations praising thei! efforts. And when it was over, they stood a little straighter, proud and bumble at the same time.
Was it Napoleon who said men will march to the ends of the earth and die if necessary for a little piece of ribbon? It was no wish for a ribbon that motivated these Issei; they are much too practical for that. But if the ribbons made them happy, they were well-deserved and long overdue. But why did it take a Japanese association to make the presentation? Why couldn't they have been honored by the United States?

Battl. Amlnst Use
Among the mnny weapon. In the baWe against drug addiction l is education.
First we m u s t teach our young people on the terrlbl. effects 01 drug use. We must teach them the symptoms so that they onn stay away trom the addicted.
Teachers must be taught to recognize when a student iJ under the intluence of dope.
Most important we m u s t teach all parents to recognize the symptoms of drug addiction, so that they can prevent their beloved son or daughter trom entering into the terrible cycle of elation and depression that leads down a one way road unless it is stopped in time.

pattern. He tlrs t trle. alcohol, moves to smoking marijuana, or barbltuates and finally graduotes to heroin .
Hil Ilrst thought is lor kicks and the desire for thrill. This desire Is not relegated to the wrong side of the lracks. This Is exceptionally true In the Japanese student.
Upon checking lhe arrests, most had lote model automobiles, very expensive clothes, and more than any other factor a lot of money In their pockets.
Very recently one 01 the c 0 a c h e s at Gardena High School asked me "Mas, what I. it with these Japanese kids?" He informed me that someone broke into a SanseI's locker and took his wailet. When asked how much money he had, the Sansei said thaI he had about $85. This may be one of the key contrlbulors to our problem.
We cannot hide from th. evils and dangerous 01 dope. This must be discussed with our children by parents, and teachers.
But first w. must know what we are talking about· You would be surprised that 4th grade student know that dope exists. They are not stupid and musl be taught to make the right decisions when t h e yare approached by fri ends or dope peddl .. rs.

I am certain that with the great leadership you have in thl. organization, the task 01 a s ou n d progr am can be achieved.
'What Are the Caules?
The one way that we can begin to cope with this problem in Gardena Is lo go beyond dealing with the symptom. and try to deal with lhe causes.
In other words what we really need Is prevention. PrevenUon will not come about overnight, particularly in an area where we are so short on lacts and 10 long on opinion •.
Facts .uch as WHY are lhe third generation Japanese students resorting to dope? Whal kept us trom gelling Involved as Nisei? Where have we failed as parents? Where are our leaders? What happened to the image and sel! respect that was taught us by our tathers and mothers? These are some of the facts and answers we need.

We were mvlted to present his group major snows. The Avantes (Hollywood Jr. JACLers) as the Since the youth today is challenged to a greater
extent than their fathers and forefathers and at a greatly accelerated pace, life of the youth is complicated as never before. To this pace is the element of student unrest-with which high school principals are now wrestling. The prudent princi pal will accept the reality of student unrest ("activism" is the term) and attempt to channel these forces along constructive channels.
One method would be to strengthen the hand of student councils, which too often is a mockery of government. There is no significant responsibility, no true legislative or executive power.
Since students are being taught the meaning of democracy, it is reasonable then that they would want to exercise that right on campus. This is the peal of the stUdent activists.
The need for overhauling student government have been cited by an article in the School Manage· ment magazine. Principals faced with student unrest described the manner 10 which they handled the situ· ation by revitalizing student government.
The principal must be accessible to the students. A good student council faculty adviser, who under· stands youth, is committed to the democratic process, knows parliamentary procedure and believes in the sincerity and ability of youth to participate in the management of school, is the key to successful stu· dent government.
The student council, further, must represent a true cross·section of the student body. A wise and just decision of the student council, though unpopular, must have support of the principal. Eventually, the council will assume more responsibility and there· by more effective. It would have jurisdiction in more areas of student life such as extracurricular activities, dress, some aspects of discipline and its student store. In areas of curriculum, calendar, instruction and build. ing plans, the council would serve as advisers.
(This has the earmarks of what Jr. JACL is all about from an organizational standpoint.)

It was my privilege to attend the Consultation on
Japanese Work sponsored by tile United Church in San Francisco earlier this month.
It was one of the first times that the church ac· tually admitted there are problenls in the Japanese community in dealing with the relationship of the ethnic church to the larger church structure. As are· sult new strategies must be developed in order to deal with the problems of the ethnic church.
The two day conference was headed by presenta· tions by Dr. Harry KUano, professor of social welfare at UCLA, and the Rev. Roy Sano, associate minister of Centenary United Methodist Church in Los Angeles.
Out of these two perspectives of the church and the community, many vocal concerns were expressed, and it was a sign that the Japanese community can speak out., even if it has to be prodded.
• • From the two days of presentation, and discussions,
I offer the following observations:
I-Four years ago we thought that the Japanese ethnic church was adequately prepared to fully inte· grate in the Caucasian, geographical conference. The abandonment of the Japanese conference would be a further sign that the Japanese Anlerican was assimi· lated, and the need for continuing Japanese ethnic work was limited to the IsseL Yet, four years later our churches, clergy and laymen alike, are beginning to say that we were not ready, and possibly we never will be.
2-Sansei youth are no longer attending or par. ticipating in the life of the church or other traditional structures within the Ja~anese community. They are more interested in activities like Junor JACL or movements like political participation and ethnic identity.
~Our Japanese American community is unable w reach the Japanese immigrant. Sansei and Nisei argue that there are definite cultural and language differences, while the Issei say there is a definite gen· eration gap between traditional and contemporary Japan. Thus, there are existent separate institutions for the immigrants apart from the Japanese Com· munity. Thus continuation of the ethnic community for that purpose is presently invalid.
4-Japanese Americans no longer feel the acute pressure w conform to White American patterns. They feel a need w preserve their own ethnic identity, and with their present acceptance there is a lesser need to satisfy or "play the role" of a White Anlerican.
• • • Though these observations are derived from are·
ligious setting, they indicate and reflect the feelings of the Japanese American community at large, and JACL should address itself to them.
It is true that we must find a new identity-one which is apart from the White American values, yet not total separation. Youth no longer desire "super· ficial integration", but rather wta! acceptance as an individuaL Treating each individual as a human being.
Additionally, there is a need w deal with the pres· ent fear \vith the Japanese immigrant. Whether con· scious or unconscious, we must examine the serious· ness of the problem, and develop new strategies for dealing with the problem. If we are accepted, we should exhibit pride in our culture, and not be afraid to mingle with the Japanese immigrant.
The consultation brought out many anxieties of both yellows and whites, and it demonstrated that we are beginning to face the problems. We can only hope that it is not wo late.
