LAND PERMITS FOR SOME Ottawa, Feb. 25--A radical change in the governments policy of handling the Japanese in the protected area of the British Columbia coast and a very rapid speedup in evacuation of those people from west of the Cascade Mountains is expected to be announced in the House of Commons today. Most important is likely to be the decision that all persons of Japanese origin, a total of 22,800, according to the R.C.M.P.’s latest figures, will be moved from the protected area. From Prime Minister King’s office this morning came the annnoucement that a new order in council had been passed which gives the minister of justice the right to exclude ”any or all persons, regardless of their citizenship, from protected areas.” This amendment to the defense of Canada regulatios will be tabled today. The new order will apply specifically to the protedted area of British Columbia, the belt between the Cascade Mountains and the sea, including off-shore islands. In addition to excluding such persons from the sea, the minister may impose restrictions regarding business, employment, movements and place of residence. He can prohibit and restrict use and possession of specified articles and require their delivery to the R.C.M.P. This can apply to radios, cameras and other things that might be used against the interests of Canada. ”It is the policy of the government to use the powers of this order to take all necessary security measures to safeguard the defense of the Pacific Coast of Canada,” said the Premier. Mr. King, answering a question by opposition leader Hanson, said the measure gave authority for the movement of any person from protected areas under authority of the justice minister. This order might cover persons who were British subjects or not and their use of any specified article in the area might be forbidden. The new regulation, which corresponds closely to the proclamation issued by the President of the U.S. last friday, is effective at once. Japanese will not be allowed to settle on land as agriculturists without a permit from the justice department, but it was believed here that this permit settlement would be arranged because it was unlikely they could all be used on road or other construction projects.
FIRST JPB IN NORTHERN AREA First group to be moved--Several preliminary groups have already been shipped to the Tete Jaune area--is Japanese nationals. There are 9476 of these people of whom the police list 3499 as males over the age of 16. Other figures for groups are; nationalized Canadians, 6529, of whom 1878 are males over 16; Canadian-born Japanese, 6067, with 3378 males over 16, in addition, 12 Japanese of United States citizenship are listed. There is every indication that the government has heeded the demands from its own supporters in parliament and the flood of protests from B.C. Every available official is said to have been ordered to go to work on this vast migration. It is predicted that 8000 will be moved within a month. First highway to be tackled will be the road from Tete Jaune south to Blue River, a link when completed that will give a direct route from Edmonton and Jasper to the Trans-Canada Highway at Kamloops, and thence to Vancouver. The first Japanese will be placed at work on this project, which will absorb about 2000.
Hope-Pronceton Next. Next in preference is the Hope-Princeton Highway, which would open a new and direct route from the Populous Okanagan Valley and southern interior to Vancouver. Third, and indefinite as yet, chiefly because there is some difference of opinion about the location, is the link that would run west from Tete Jaune to Prince George. It is believed that Ottawa has put to the provincial government the suggestion that it is ready to carry out certain projects if the provincial officials will do the engineering and supply supervision.
