Church Council Asks Fairness To Japanese.

The Seattle Council of Churches and Christian Education today asked for no discrimination against Japanese in the community, particularly in the holding of jobs.

"It would be most unfortunate if our Christian people would, but their attitude and actions, add to the difficulties and trials of the Japanese-Americans who now become victims of unfortunate circumstances because of the present situation," the council announced.

The council also addressed a message to the Japanese in the Pacific Northwest, stating:

"We wish to congratulate you on the good record the Japanese in the United States have for being a law-abiding people.

"Both the first generation and the American born, second generation, are above average in the matter of good citizenship and observance of the best social usages. We wish to assure you of the sympathy and cooperation of the churches.

"We urge you to take any problem that may arise because of the international situation, or because of any local matter, to any Christians with whom you may be acquainted."
