I encourage JACLers to run for poUlical office. We should use our organizational know how to support JACLers by eacb person personally committing himself or herself to working actively on the campaign committee. Norman Mineta, Mayor of San Jose, Ken Nakaoka, Mayor of Gardena, Bob Matsui, City Councilman ot Sacramento, Paul Bannai, City Councilman of Gardena and many, many other. have eacceeded in the recent past.
By now, we should have bad a Congressman from the mainland. We haven't as yet, but we will have shortly. We have many qualified people, hoth men and women. Let us get good potential candidates to take the big step. JACL should do everything within its power and llmitations to pusb for good candidates, JACLer or nonJACLer.

I think Bill Marutani referred to il as "Oracle" (Oriental American Citizens League) and that didn't go over too well. But thrust of his idea is that as we go on we won't be able to Iunction as JACL alone. Who are we to say that the Chinese Americans, the Filipino Americans, etc., ought to be a part of JACL? Let's start setting up contacts with other Asian American groups.
In the eyes of non-Oriental Americans, all Orientals are lumped together and thus a peculiar virus of Oriental prejudice readily hosts upon all other Oriental Americans as easily as it does upon the then current victim ... moreover by joining together on a common contribution to our nation, eacb Asian American group may thereby gain a greater assurance of their justified pride as Asian Americans.
Recommendation - liaison study group be established for a feasibility of promoting initially a federation of Asian American organizations; program be developed by wWch each group, particularly JA-

Perhaps practicing medicine in the 6alubrious ellmes of Fresno, California with never a vac~tion ,to ipeak of, as was pointed out at the recent testimorual tendered Dr. George Kanomatsu Hashiba, is a key to Rve to age 88 and then some. Whereas the western traditions celebrate an occasion every 25 years-the .!lver at 25, golden at 50 and diamond at 75; the Japanese love double numbers like age 77 and 88, or celebrate on Jan. I, Mar. 3, May 5, July 7 and Sept. ~ ,
Mock Joya's "Things Japanese", a compendium of customs, manners and folklore every NIsei should have explains why ages 77 and 88 are popularly celebrated. In the script characttlrs for "ki" or Joy, the forms of "seven, ten seven" can be detected-hence • 77 Is the "age of joy" or Kinoji.no-)wai. The char· acters of "eight, ten, ei~ht." compress to form the Kanji "yone" or rice-prmclpal food of the Japanese and always regarded as sacr.ed-hence age 88 is the "age of rice" or Yone·no-IwaL
• • • At a time when virtues such as "ardor, dedication
and zeal" over the long haul are rar~ly in th~ news, reading over the sketch of Dr, HaShlba crossmg our desk this past week would emancipate a resolute cynic. It was commonplace for the pioneer Fresno Issei "country doctor' to spend the whole week in general medical practice-in itself a very tiring routine-and Ulen drive on to San Francisco to research in surgery to better serve his patients. He devel~ped. ne.urosurgery in Fresno when no one else was In thiS field. He performed corrective orthopedic surgery to rehabilitate cripples He was in the field of chest surgery when that specialty was in its infancy. In later years, vascular surgery was included in his research.
Hashiba was 19 wnen he came to the U.S. in 1903 from Ishikawa·ken, and graduated from San Francisco's Lowell High in 1910. Seven years later, he graduated from Stanford Medical School-workin~ his way through all his school years. His doctoral theSIS. "Lymphatic System of the Guinea Pig", merited life memo bership from Sigma Xi. After completing Internship at Stanford Hospital and postgraduate studies at Columbia University Medical School in 1920, he commenced his private practice in Watsonville and moved to Fresno in 1922, where he has remained to this day elcept for fourlears at Tule Lake WRA Center, where he was chief 0 surgery and among the last to leave in March, 1946, because Of the needs of those interned.
As impressive as his personal medical achievements may be-and we're quoting from the sketch herethere is one quality which marks this humble man as • tremendous person and that is his "dedication and service to the people". Welfare of his patients was his prime concern. Time of day or night meant nothing. His stamina was a source of amazement to every one of his colleagues.
He was never too busy to do anything to help instruct and aid his fellow doctors, from interns to doctors in private practice_ He was especially solicitous and encouraging when it came to helping any new young doctor struggling to establish himself. He was aIwa>,s polite and considerate to the medical and nursmg staff, Such goodwlII and admiration for his character and personality, coupled with obvious medieal skills, culminated in his being honored as president of the Fresno County General Hospital staff and more recently as honorary president, a recognition aeldom accorded. Yet, he keeps saying, "I'm only a c:ountry doctor."
His dedication to patients is literally boundless. Questioned why he has never taken a vacation that he. richly deserves, he replies, "Why should I? I'm happy in my work. I need no vacation." His time·off frOm practice consisted of going to advance research &eJD1nIrs for a few days.
Hundreds of patients have testified to his work and dedication during the dark days of Evacuation and 11& at Tule Lake. He chose to stay to help despite the early opportunity to leave.
• • • Throughout his life he never forgot he was a Japa
lIRe Immigrant, an Issei who was given the wonderful Opportunity to study and advance himself despite prejudice and adversity. He was always grateful for tbIa. Coup'led with th1s was an underlying sense of TeIpODSibllity to the entire Japanese American commlUllty as WII typWed when he commented upon what a NIsei doctor said in praise of him for the respect be bad in the medical profession, "Well, I didn't want 'to do anything to dIsCredit or to bring a sense of lllame or embarrassment to the rest of you Nisei doc· ton". The writer of the sketch then adds: "We wonder Jantr many Nisei doctors, not necessarily doctors but
any field of work. would give this much con· 1dIletiatkln and thought to those who are to follow ... 1"

presence earlier ot older bro. thers, Taltema lsu and Hidematsu in Seattle. Two olher s, Toramatsu and Shigemalsu, preferred to stay in Japan.
For as far as I can remember, Yoshimatsu workM hard, like an IssH is suppaoed to. He put-in 12-13 hout! a day. hall a day on Sundays. Like nearly 20 years as a merchant in Old Nihonmachi.

Rel.ilrning from MinidOKa afler Ihe Great War, at 85 years, he worked another 17 years. Finally. on a te~hnicality they ~toppetl him - seems the Union has rules against 82·year-olds working while youngsters are waiting tor jobs. He retired with a cute $26 a month pension.
He was a healthy man. Never hospitalized, unlll his death bed. Never missed a day of work, as a merchant, in camp, or as a janitor after the war. His wealth was bis bealth.
Northerll California-Western Nevada
District Governor Shig Su~iyama
A simple man. A quiet man. A man with not too many needs. He appeared satislied with a simple liie. An WI
complicated man. And when retirement came,
involuntarily, he had Lime 10 sleep and eal a lot. Naps were an any tim e -he-sat-down thing. And he found time fot gard~ning, fixing t h i n g s around the house, running errands, etc. And of course, tbere was television, bul the English from the tube cam~ too fast for him and he usually dozed oil in shOl'l time.
Retirement meant a Irlp to Japan. after 46 years. But he had become a stranger in J apan. Relatives were few and what was familiar had changed. And he had cbanged.
After four yearh ot s 0 f I living, as so oIlen happcns to retired Issei, he was dead at 86.
• The time lor the 1972 Na
tional Convention is now upon us. The time for decisions which will set JACL's direction, indirection, or misdirection lor the coming blennium f
and possibly succeeding bienniums, has come. It is to be hoped then that lhe delega le. who will deliberate and \'ote on the floor of the NaLional Council will have done thcir homework so that statements made ond votes cast wiil trill)' reflect their knowledge and undeUlanding of the facts and Is~ues Involved wllhin the context ot the Intercsts and necd ~ of the delegates' respective constituencies. It is
~!~t tOco~~i~e~~tidohth ~!i1fu ~~ given to the interests and needs of J ACL as a whole.
It would be well it the various reports, which ha\!e been emanating In a flood from Nalional Headquarlers. will have been studied and that some feedback will h. ve been oblained beforehand regarding pOSition or actions preferred by the chapter membership,
It is hoped Ihat all JACLers, and par ticularly convention delegates, will have read
and pondered President Ray Uno's .eries of UNO-Bar articles enLitled "AnAtomy 01 JAOL". President Ray has providM us with an exoeUent sories of analytical deSorlptlons of tbe structure and dynamics of J ACL and the communities and groups it is in .. tended to serve. His percepH ve and incisi ve analyses should provide liS with sound bases for many or most of our decisions.
As in any gathering where two or more JACLers come together in decision maldl\g, the generation of much discllssion, some of it heated, is to be expecled. Perhaps it is too much 10 ask, but it would be hoped lhat the amounl 01 purely propagandisLic rhetoric can be kept to a minimum, that preference will be given by those taking the floor tor specifics and factual InformaLion over gUttering gen· eraUlies and fanciCul opinions, and that eHorts to persuade Council members to a particular position or point of ~ l i e\V
will be through ra tional argument rather than tbrough philosophical e"hortations. We can hope can we not?
Writers will not dig·up the early Issei doings, sue h as their use of guns and knjves, the killings. Their gambling, bootlegging, smuggliog. aven prosLituLion - yes, in Scattie. Some got rich from such activities.

The J.A. Creed
• • Washington
It was thoughttuJ 01 presldenl Tomlo Morlguchl, &>atlle JACL chap~r to und me a copy 01 the resolution drafted by some members of his Chapter aalling lor the ",·.Uremcnt" of the Ao-called JACL Creed " •• an official expression of the belief. tnd prinCiples Of JACL",
To begin wilh, and to cor. ---------reet the record, th~ Creed referred to ~ not the J A C L Cr~ !lut rMher the japan~ S e AmericA1l CreM, which was Adopled by the JACL as Ah expreMlon 01 "the beJlef$ and principle\! of JACL."
For Some time now, I hAve known that there ar~ oertain Indhiduals within Ihe JACL who fOr one reason Or another believe that the Japanese American Creed Is outmoded And no Ion get r~presents the th!nldng and the objectlves of JACL. Most concedI! that perhaps when it was wMUen and during World War II It served a uSelul pw'pose but that todAy It fails to take into account the reAlItieS of soclely and the pfoblems ot the Japanese American comrnunitl·.
QUite frankly , I persona lly recognize that the times have changed since the Creed IVas wrlUen in 1940 and that in certaln respects I probably would not ha ... e written the identical word. and thought. now i! I attempted to <!taft another such personal credo. . . .
IndlvlduU Cred~
Nevertheless si n c e the Creed is an lnillvlduQI exptes· sion and since I conlinue to beU . ... . In Its statetnenl$ U a whole, I am not on1)· proud to have been its author but bopeful that It can still serve a most uselul, meaningful, and constructive purpose.
And, many hav~ told me that the Creed Is now a part of Am.ricana, and that it has been repeated and reprinted perhaps more than any other statement by and about J apanese Anlerlcans. It has been reprinted In the Congressional Record probably mOre tMn any other Single expressiOn of its kind and It haS been p l'alSed as most excmplary not a n I y by m oderat~ and conservati\'es but also by liberals and by membeU of many minority and disadvantaged and deprived groups.
M many may kno\", I am 1 firm believer that, In .pite of Its racism and prejudices against those at J apan .. e ance ~try, the United States ot America is my nati ,'e I and and continues to represent the last, best hope ot mankibd. I

Cont Inned from Par.
Raymond Uno, PC article , ... some urban J ACL chapters, there is great sympathy for iheit plight from members and cb.pters throughout JACL, particularly many rural chapters in Southern Californ ia, Nortl'lern California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Jer .. sey and Nebraska, In addition, members who are now city dwellers who not long ago e"perienced the laborious task ot suO up to sun down and UleJl some, 7 days a week, ha"e not torgolten how much ti.eit lives and the lives of their loved ones depended on the soil.
Finally, the root.. of almost all of the people of Japanese ancestary have, either through their own family or through marriage. stemmed from the firm, just a passing few years back, and still have tamily ties somewhere in the agricultural community.
At one time thert was an implied threat from the CCDC they would pull out as a disLrict council from JACL it there was even any endorsement from JACL of UFWOC. I am not cerlain whether the veiled threat will materialize at this tinle. In addition, many chapters and members have indicated similar action, and, in fnct, Some staunch n\ e m b e r s, eve n Thousand Clubbers, have failed to renew their membership as a result of the liberal directions of J ACL along with the UFWOC issue.
lf such mass withdrawals should occur, the Education Program, the Community Involvement Program and the Youth Program, for all practical purposes, will be dead as far as funding Is concerned, and probably some ot the othtr programs will be &erloUlily jeopardized, If not tllmIna~d, including the cOncomitant reduction at s!.aft.

Eve n as to the Japanese American Creed, I am among those who teel very strongly that there are many mor e Americans ot J apanese ancestry and JACLers who would accepl thc Creed than those who would "relire" it. . . .
Remains Optimlsllo
As tar as I am personally concerned, however, It the NaLionai Council and the JACL \'ote to eliminate the Creed os Its expression ot faith and Ideal s, I have no objections. That is Ihelr prerogaU"c. I would a n I y ask that under such circumsla nces the Oreed be returned to me 86 my personal property, whIch In fact It is, and that IL no longer be Identi fied as the JACL Creed. even 11 Incorrectly.

in the vital issues en mosse. Unfortunalely, the involvement has been of a limited number. who, however. have been intense and dedicated. They are not leading a I he r youth: they are, more or less. pulling ihem, and it is a struggle U you ask the involved ones.
Cutting througb red tape or trying to make progress in J ACL is diffioult because the action-reaction snydrome bas cerlaln paralyzing eilects. and like a bureaucracy, changes, sometimes, are wretchedly slow. M:rn:eover. with our system of chapters and districts representing l1.11'al, city. young, old, etc., there is no wonder many activists are tal ally frustrated by lhe snail's pace at which things happen.

In spite of our differences. because we have a NaLional Organization with vast resources, we have been able to work, with arms locked together. on many common issues where strength and unity we,e important.
In the !Inal analysis, I feel we have an obligation to our rural chapters which slill constitutes • large part of our membership and are contl"ibuting their fail' share to the national budget.

JACL-CONSTITUTION
INITIA JIVE-REFERENDUM PROPOSED,
REDUOION OF HAT'L BOARD ASKED SAN FRANCISCO - Among the m a J 0 r constitutional changes proposed for the National J ACL concerns the in· corporation of the initiative referendum principle.
Proposed by t b e Central California District Council, it was contended "many importa.nt poticies and matters concerning the general welfare and interest ot J ACL members as weU as the general welfare of persons of Japan· ese ancestry are being decided by smaU representative groups possessing proxy powers and voting on behalf of the general membership at the biennial National JACL Convention and obviously wthout benetit of full discussion and participation ot the general membership.JJ
Calling for closer relation· sbip between the general membership and the National JACL officers and declaring the initiative-referendum procedure would be in the best interest of the organizatioD, the CCDC resolution proposed that implementation of:
I-The initiative be recommended by two district coun· cils and supported by signatures of at least 10% of the JACL membershlp as recorded in the previous year's roll.
2-The referendum be recommended by two district councils and supported by sig· nat~ res of at least 5% of the JACL membership as recorded in the previous year's roll.
EXECOM Modlfioatlon.
The CCDC resolution, while not studied by the National Planning Commission 85 requested, was endorsed by tbe Nationa l J A C L executive commi ttee (EXECOM) at its last meeting April 2-23 at Los Angeles witb the follow· ing cha nges:
I-That initiative measures be endorsed by a single district council and supported by signatures ot at Jeast 10% of
Status explained for

CONVENTION MIXER
the membership in four other district councils.
2-Tbat referendums be endorsed by a single district counell and supported by sig· natures of at least 5% of the membership in tour other district councils.
The EXECOM had reasoned the modifications would reduce the number of tbe signatures required as well as insure a wider grassroots interest. Nationally, some 2.500 signatures would be required in the original CCDC resolution to implement an ini tiative whereas the combina· tion ot the four smallest districts outside Central California involves only 483 signatures or if the four largest, a total of 2.117 as per 1971 membershlp Ligures.
National Board Chan,es
Also proposed are some changes on the comp06ition of the National JACL Board.
I-That the immediate past National President be delet· ed as he will have served a total of four years (two years as president-elect and two years as president) and there was n.o valid reason for committing bim to an additional two years as immedia te past president. He is always available and can be invited by the National President to National Board ot EXECOM meetings.
2-As a practical matter, a reduction of the number of District Youth Cbairmen (now seven) on the National Board.
Another proopsal calis for the president·elect to become president \vithout further election upon the expiration of
Chapter nominees for
$500 scholarships due SAN FRANCISCO-Compe.
tition is now open for two $500 Sumitomo Bank collegiate scholarships and the $500 Dr. Mutsumi Nobe Memorial s c b 0 1 a r s hip tor graduate study, it was announced by National JACL Director Ma· sao W. Satow.
Chapters may nominate aa many candidates as they wish for these awards. Names and address of candidate with chapter letter of recommendati 0 n should be remitted to Headquarters by Mon day, JulY 10. Candidates will be sent the application torm.
The Sumltomo collegiate scholarship is for students who bave completed at least on semester of study at any accredited J u n i 0 r College, College or University but wbo will not have graduated as of June 30, 1972. Preference to students in fields related to banking, i.e. finance, business administration, economics1 foreign trade, etc.

WASHINGTON - Kicking off the 22nd Biennial Nation· al JACL Convention bere June 27-July 2 will be the Opening Mixer bosted by the Philadelphla JACL Chapter.
This Opening Mixer will be so unique and tun filled, you just can't aftord to miss it. lt will get everyone into the right frame of mind and set the tempo for the rest of the week.
I! will be held on Tuesday, June 27 from 9 p .m. to 1 a.m. in the Shorebam Hotel's Blue Room which will be converted to the "Cabaret Glnza". As you walk through the "Tori!Dorl" and enter the swank supper club, you'll see chochins strung from the huge columns which line both sides of the sunken dance floor. Only a nominal admission charge (unless you're preregistered) will bring you into the 'land of mal<. believe -Japan".
• • You will be greeted at the
door by kimono clad hostesses with the traditional "IrashaH" Kimono, yukata. or bappi coats will be tbe attire tor the evening. You'll be guaranteed to a nigbt of great fun and frolic. There will be favors and door pmes. Specially selected Japanese music will titillate your acoustic nerves. Group singing and ondo dances are on the program, not to mention hllarious performances by the uninhibited many.
We do hope you will plan to attend the entize conven· tion; but if you can't, be sure you don't mlss the Opening Mixer - where the real action starts!
We also jus t learned Dr. Frank Sakamoto is !lying in from Chlcago for the Opening Mixer. A portion ot the Mixer will serve as a reunion tor those who attended t be Thousand Whings in Tokyo last year.
