Japanese Rejecting American Pearls?
From: [Name
Withheld]
Re:
Japanese Ethnocentricity; American Jobs
They had this
program on
TV about this American whose Japanese-born wife
taught Americans how to place the media for pearls in
the fresh water clams of Tennessee to make
American-grown pearls. Some visiting Japanese were
outraged. They also said that these pearls would not
sell in Japan as they had been processed by Amer-e-kee.
[James
Fulford replies:
I looked it up. This is the
Latendresse family business. The
late John Latendresse, a former
American soldier, who married
Chessy Latendresse when he was
stationed
in Japan years ago,
created an
all-American pearl farm
in Tennessee.
This
shows, once again, that Americans can
learn to do anything that foreigners can do. And
it's not surprising that the Japanese are unwilling to
"buy American."]
