L. W. Bawanusn japa That nese zunericans ate Of Other, Minorities" "The nroblem of Jananese Americans beine Dredominantlv one of color and race, its ultimate solution will depend on correlation with other problems of color and race in America today." That. is the conviction expressed by tne vigorous Japanese Americanwriter, Larry Tajiri, editor of 'the Pacific Citizen, national organ of the Japanese American Citizens League, in the latest issue of common Li round magazine, under tne caption, areweii to tokio. Mr.

Tajiri admitted that match ui Las pi uuioui vi awipunuun i individual. Bad obviously so. but! insisted that ths problem is much wider aad deeper. He expressed inability to see. bow" Japanese Americans caa resolve their present situation wholly on an indi vidusJ plane, ror.

It Is a racial prob lem a racist prooiem lmDeaaea deeply in the racial attitudes of tne aommant wmte majority, especially on tne west coast. More and more. Mr. Tapiri con ressea, Japanese Americans are learning that their rate is tied up inextricably in the fate of other minorities granting that, in the past, regional prejudices against Filininos.

Mexicans. Neeroes and Jews nave been accepted by many Japanese Americans, inst as tnese particular victims of discrimination someUraes echo tbe propaganda of the professional, anti Japanese yellow peril" mongers. EVACUATION, BIG REVELATION Evacuation had to come before Japanase Americans finally came to a sweeping awareness of the urgent and demanding color problem of the American Negro, the mili tant editor wrote. He said it drove home to all Japanese Americans the delayed revelation that their problem, too, is inescapably one of color and is part of the unfinished business of democracy. Mr.

Tajiri cited a number of bizarre racial experiences encountered by Japanese Americans in the South as an illustration of the degree to which the Japanese American problem is essentially one of color like that of the American Negro and, in some even more pernicious and peculiar. FATES SIMILAR AND DIFFERENT In one case, "Jim Crow" found a corollary in "Jap it was described, with the result that Japanese Americans were treated as Negroes and subjected to the same intense prejudice and discrimina tion. In other cases, it was exnlnined. Japanese Americans, to maintain peace and harmony have assumed that they were regarded as colored ana nave taken their places in jim crow train cars, only to be hied into wmte coacnesDy irate conductors who have ordered them away from the Negro passengers.

Now there is no excite ment at all, just the constant sound of roaring engines of construction, raaers. carryalls, trucks and bull ozers.

Claims Use Of Languagj Will Solve Race Problem CHICAOO (ANP) Alfred Kora bvakl. noted author and teacher in the field of Semantics, believes that the proper use of adaptation of language will be an Important factor in solving post war race re lations problems. rr. KorzoysKi said at the Institute of General Semantics here last week: "We students of semantics are interested in human understanding, which includes of course all races, without emphasizing races as such. In this second World War the so called 'racial problems' are looming and will loom up most prominently.

I don't believe these problems can be solved at all in the old way. We are convinced that the so called 'white race' is extremely handicapped by the aris totelian system. "However, other races are in general not handicapped to the same extent as the 'white' man is. So far such a proverb as ''East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall is largely true, really only because of a lack of a common denominator to come together. We have many friends of many races, and given a com mon denominator' we find that from a human point of view there is no difference between races, provided we enlarge the 'white' man's limited aristotelian orienta tion to a broder non aristotelian orientation." No Negroes Present At GOP Meet By LEON WASHINGTON, Jr.

SALT LAKE CITY (ANP) Colored Republican leaders of the western states were conspicuously aosent rrom the recent Republican "Save America Pow Wow" held at the New House hotel. Sidney P.

"Civil liberties, housing, post war employment, equal participation and representation in government is the rightful demand of Western Negro citizens," Tickle: said. While emphasizing the import ant role women will play in the 1944 elections, Judge Ruth Rose Richardson. Portland. Ore stated tnat at present there "are over! 20,000 colored people in her city, while only a few years aeo there were only a small number.
