Section for Womell

The camp Included a wom­en's section which was sep­arated frc m the men', bar­racks by a barbed wire fence. Amcng Ihe women Inteme"" was 'Mrs. Yoshlo Harada, wh ... e husband shot and kill­ed hlmcelf alter aiding a Ja­panese pUot who had crash­landed on N'lhou on Dec. 7, 1941. (Thla Ineldent was cov­ered in a 1971 PC Holiday Is­sue feature by Allan Beek­man.-Ed. )

Other wcmen who are said to) have spent time at Hono­u1luli were Helen. S. Nakslla­wa, Ryuto Tsuda, Haruko Ta­kahashi, Masako Fujlmura, Yasue Takahasbl and Terucbl­yo Suzuki.

Meals were served In a large mess hall. The Internees did theIr own cooking.

To keep themselves busy, internees took up bandl~(t or volunteered for cam p chore.. They were paid 10 cents an hour lor camp work. The American Red Cross I!ave lbem $3 a month. Softball games were lbe maln group recreation.

Nishimura worked In the tailor shop six days a week. His acs!stant for a time was genry Tanaka, 64, ot Wal­mea, Kaual.

Tanaka, an applIance deal­er, later taught English gram­mar to the internees. He was taken Into custcdy Feb. 10, 1942. in Waimea as he walk­ed home from work. He was released 2'h years later. His internment Included time at Waimea and Wal\ua Jails on Kallai, Sand Island and Hono­ulJulJ.

Swapped Food Items

Robert S. Muroda, 70, of Waianae, said be was the camp's mess sergeant. He sold the internees were issued the same fcod ratlens as the mlll­taT)'. "We often exebanged feed items with the GIs," be said. "For instance, they dldn't care too much for canned fisb and we didn't care for chill cen carne. So we tTaded."

There was generally agree­ment among tormer Inter­nees interviewed by tbe Star­Bullelln that Ihe guards were friendly.

NI.hlkawa, who works part­Ume fer 8 local radio slatlon. said he remembers a Sgt. LGvele .. who was stripped of his rank because he did a fav­cr for the Inlernees.

"Coral dug oul frem Pearl Harbor was brought to the camp to cover Ihe dirt roads," Nishikawa said. "There were leis of seasheUs mixed with Ihe ccral and we wanted 10 pick them up to make trln­kels to keep ourselves busy.

"So we osked Sgt Lovelecs and he let us out of tbe gate. The next time I saw him, he didn't hove his slrlpes. He WD' demoled because someone had reported to the camp commander thot he hod gone rul with us without his weap­on."

"'Ishikawa said Intemces were wa, y of iunrds who blld ) ... t b,en trHns(N'red from the Mulnlund.

there were lots of pukaa In them. The censors had snip­ped parts of lbe letten. They dldn't want U5 to wrtte about camp 1I1e."

Nishimura. the taUor, said one person died In camp of natural causes and two ethe ... had nervou..1f breakdown. " One ended up In the nut house In Kaneohe," lie said.

What criteria did the mlU­tary government \lie In ..,Iecl­Ing Internees?

For men like Nishimura, Murada and former Terri­torial Rep. Thomas T. Sakald­hara of HUo, prewar educa­t'on in Japan was not the reasen. Tbey had never been to Japan before the war,

Fer the LgeuTa brethen -Nobuo. Todao, Chojlro and Yutaka - that probably was the reason. "We were educat­ed In Japan," said Nrbuo Ka­geura, who Is DOW In the roof­ing busin..,.. In Honolulu. "I guess that's the cnly reason they picked us up."

Murada, born In Waianae, was a sugar plantation car­penter when he was taken In custcdy. " I was called to the plantatlcn emce In the after­noon In September. 1942 and I was told thai I was being taken to headquarters lor "UestIOIlIng.

"1 was asked a few oues­tlons at the DIlllngbaro Bldg. and since It was late In the afternean. they told me Pd bet­ter stay ovemighl That's bow my Internment began," be sald.

On tbe Blaekllsi

Nishimura said he had heard lbat " I was on the blacklist even before the war. Why. I don't know. I had nev­er been to Japan and bad no ties there except through my parents.

" I think the two thln1S they ueed agalnst me was that 1 beld dual citizenship and the fact Ibat I once signed a bank note to buy a Iruck for lbe Japanese Red Cross. My fa­ther was to sign thai note but since be did net have an ao­~t at thai book. I did."

Nishimura said a neighbor bad been educated In Japan but was never interned. " I guess nobedy squealed," be said.

Sakak'hara said he was picked up Feb. 22 1942. "cn C'uspicion of bei~ an allen", which he Is nOI. He said his late tRther. Shinzo. was aD pllen but was not Interned.

Shortly alter lbe Pearl Har­bor aUack. Sakaklhara was named special deputy sherltT to advise Hila pOlice and to act as a liaison between poUce and the military. He was "re­moved" from the lob three months before he was arresrt­ed .

Prewar Sold lor in Jap;lll

For Shlnzaburo Sumida, 61 , presidenl of Honolulu Sake Brewery &: Ice Co., Ltd ., the reason why he was Interned was clear.

Sumida was a student at Ihe Tokyo Unlv. of Commerce In the lale 19305 when be was droned Into Ihe Japanese 01 my. He spenl two yean; In (,hlna as a sL,,'Ond lIeulenant: was discharged ond returned to HawaII III December, 1940. He was arrested on Christmas eve, 1941.

"I did teel that an Inlu<fl.ce was being done." he said "But somehow. justice was beyond my reach. All th~ had to do was point to my service In the Japan ...... army. And that was a tact..."

From Sand Island. Sumida W "S sent to the MaInland. HI. first I\.OP after reaehlng Call­temla wa' Camp McCoy. Wi' whleh wu laler to beume the t-alnln!! ~mp of the 100tb Ballalion.

He wou ..,nl back to HawaII In A~ 1942 and afleT • few wei!ks rn Sand r land was Interned at Hont'ullull where be .tayed until November 1944.

"We all had a bearing then." Sumida sa'd "They ~regated lhe 'deslrables' and the 'un­desirables' The 'deslrables' were released.

"I was one of the 'undesir­ables'. and along with about 100 othen I W.$ sent to Tule Lau. Calif. We stayed there thn;u n \be aMi G!' .... anc returned to Hawaii In De­cember 1945 to be releued."

FBI .\cOlli's WIle

Is.!> Okada, 61. who sells fI-hinl! supplies in Kaimuld. sa'd the wile of a FBI agent is partly to blame for his internment. "I ..... a food peddler and eertaIn foods w"re sea..,. dahl after Pearl Harbor. So 1 uad to save them-things 1IlIe eurumber and celery - for DIY stead, ~mers.

'One das I sold some cel­ery I had hlddell In my ~k 10 a regular customer. The FBI aeent's wile saw me do thal The next day the agent came and acked to buy scme celery. When I told him I didn't have any, I wou told to report 10 the lJumigration Omce for interrogation. I got called in seven I'mes."

... trying to maintain the ethnic purity of its neigh· borhoods." But he stuck to his original position in support of affirmative action housing programs to eliminate trad;tional segrej!ation patterns and opposed "arbitrary use (of) federal force".

Reaction was both swift and mixed, even sustain· ed despite the apologies. Blacks supported Carter or assailed him. His competitors in the party hoped he'd work h'rnself out of that pickle.

This experience shows that "racism" is not yet dead in a presidential campaign as one slip has shown. Only it has come dressed up as "ethnic purity". TherEfore. his explanation in an interview with the LA Times is inViting: "I have made very clear that one of the great lessons of the South was pride among black people in their own heritage, something other ethnic groups could b ~ nefit from-to be proud of one's own background. history, customs, and still fit into the national structure."

What Carter had meant to say was "ethnic pride" -and that's the core of cultural pluralism which many Americans inc ludin~ Japanese Americans, irrespec· tive of partisan politics, and other presidential can­didates are espousing today.

Risk of Ethnic Humor This business of anti·Polish jokes began seme­

time after World War 0 and on Feb. 23, the U.S. Supreme Court refused without comment to listen to' the case brought hy the Polish American Congress, which had sought for equal time to reply to four derogatory Polisb jokes broadcast nationally on a Dick Cavett Show in August, 1972. TV personality Steve Allm was subbing for Cavett and appeared with comedian Bob Einstein in a skit.

Posing as president of the imaginary Polish Anti· defamation League, Einstein told Allen abeut a ficti· tious lawsuit filed against the three TV networks de­manding a public apology for Polisb jokes as he of· fered four examples.

Beth the FCC and the Court of Appeals in Ch;ca~o turned down the PAC request, holding that neither the fairness doctrine nor the FCC rule requiring broad­casters to air responses ef individuals subjected to pt rsonal aUack appIJed to Polish jokes.

PAC, an umbrella yroup representing one-tenth of the nation's l().million Polish Americans, had told the court the jokes were "vile, demeaning stories" which attacked the "character, intelligence, hygiene (and) appE'arance" of an ethnic group and inflicted untold psychelor.ical damage on Polisb American children. The appellate court held the skit simply did not qualify as a "controversial issue of public importance", though it agre£d the jokes were in "poor taste". Allen, in the meantime, had apologized on tbe same show.

Upshot of the supreme court rebuff new comes as the PAC. in trying to cut down ethnic stereotype, is pushing for political and economic power in keeping with their numbers. They have endured the butt of ethnic jokes poverty and discrimination for two and three generations and are now gunning for clout. Polish ,\mEricans are warning, "We don't have to take it anymore." For some, It has meant reverting to the original family name. And don't dare call a child surnamed Prezypyszny "Sneeze". That joke can cost you another form of a clout on the nose.

FROM THE FRYING PAN: Bill Hosokawa ot England, It is fitting that Esther Herst's article (PC. Jan. 30) on the repressive Senal<! Blil I should appear in our paper. From the Notebook

Denv~r. Colo. the Denver Museum or Natural History ha ~

just printed a lour guide or the museum In Japanese. The Japane.e guide lolna Spanish. French and German versions. J apanese lan­gualle ahlJl are common In HawaII and Call­tornla, hul they are unuau ol enough in these parta to be noted.

The price of meat has reached the point where we are now respectfully call i n g c h u c k roasts "Charles".

J don't want t'l sound aa a m-dem day Paul Revere. but 8- meone should pOint out the sellcu. Inl<!rnol problems 01 lead.,.3hlp we race aa we ap­proach the 24th biennial con­vention .

Simply put, 1 view the chal ­lenRe as the uncertain lead­er-hip needed at various lev­el. of J AC'L. I sa1 uncerlaln Icadeuhlp because I do not sec nor d~ I hear of any per­sons Interested In some of the slaIT vacancies lert by person­nel who have expressed their desire to resign.

JACL leadership l~ a funny anImal. Orten times It·s a "no win" sltuation-<lne risks his neck because you're damned­if-you-do or damned-If-you­don·t . Scme of us have had the experience and knc w the haz­ards of wearing Ihe JACL straight - jacket. conset)uently we cp.,ate Independently or gain a repulation as being a loner.

But the time has come for us to take a hard look at the future and to make every et­fort 10 develop leadership nec­"",ary for J ACL lo survive some rceky years ahead. .

My views about the tuture leadership is not Intended to refiect any negatlve ccmments abcut our present proressloD ­al staIT. I am serry to see the departure of capable and tal­ented young people frem our staff, especially Gail N'sbloka, David Ushlo Claire Sanpel and Craig Shimabukuro. They have served JACL with dedi­cation and distinction; 1 am ecnlldent their exp,rlence and contributions to c.ur commu­nity will be missed. but I'm also hcpe!u1 thaI each of them will continue to succeed and excel In aDY endeavor they undertake.
