(CP) A vast and unparallel
ed evacuation of 23,000 men,
women and children of Japanese
origin from important coastal
areas Is being carried out by the
Canadian government as part of
a Pacific coast defense plan.
Coastal steamers cruising
through mountainous channels

have collected the first of the
Japanese for transfer to points
east of the Cascade mountains
where they will remain for the
duration of the war.
The project has been careful
ly worked out and divided into
three phases, the first of which
will end with the removal of
2,500 persons from the west
coast of Vancouver Island and
the mainland coast north of
Vancouver.
The second phase calls for
evacuation of the Japanese from
the east coast of Vancouver is

that lie between that land bar
rier and the mainland. The
third will be concerned with
those in Vancouver and the ad
jacent mainland district where
most of them are located.
