Related Collections Title: Japanese American Evacuation and Resettlement Records, Identifier/Call Number: BANC MSS 67/14 c Title: Records of the War Relocation Authority, 1942-1946: Field Basic Documentation Located at the National Archives...[microform], Identifier/Call Number: BANC FILM 1932 Acquisition Information The Japanese-American Evacuation and Resettlement Photographs were originally part of the War Relocation Authority (WRA) portion of the Japanese-American Evacuation and Resettlement Papers. The WRA designated the University of California, Berkeley Library as the prime depository for WRA record materials outside the National Archives on September 7, 1945. The photographs were transferred with the papers to The Bancroft Library July 3, 1963. Scope and Content The War Relocation Authority (WRA) records represent the official documentation of the United States agency created to assume jurisdiction over the Japanese and Japanese Americans evacuated from California, Oregon, and Washington by the Western Defense Command, the Fourth Army, and the Wartime Civilian Control Administration (WCCA) during January/February of 1942. During its existence from March 1942 to 1946, the WRA controlled the administration of the relocation centers, administered an extensive resettlement program, and oversaw the details of the registration and segregation programs. Included in their records are administrative files, official publications, reports and surveys, legal papers, correspondence, and photographs and scrapbooks. All of the records except the photographs have been cataloged as BANC MSS 67/14 c. It is important to note that the photograph collection, as the official documentation of the WRA, reflects the point of view that the WRA wanted to present to the citizens of the United States during World War II. A number of photographs exist in 5 x 7 format and as enlargements that one assumes were made for public exhibition. The photographs, presumably created for public exhibition, and the captions accompanying them written by WRA staff, present an idealistic view of the relocation centers which clashes greatly with the harsh realities detailed by many survivors and historians in the decades following the internment. The collection contains approximately 7000 photographs and 317 Kodachrome slides which have been arranged into 18 series (described below). Series 1-6 and 8-11 document day-to-day life and activities in $individual relocation centers in California, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and Arkansas as captured by WRA photographers. The remaining series cover pre-evacuation activities in California only; relocation of evacuees in various states; assembly centers in California; and resettlement activities, primarily in California cities. Most of the photographs are well captioned with information on the photographer, place, date, people, and activities featured in the photographs. Series 18 consists of Kodachrome slides for the WRA lecture "The Wrong Ancestors", and slides of the Granada and Central Utah relocation centers.

BANC PIC 1967.014--PIC 3 Among the WRA photographers is Dorothea Lange. There are 691 photographs by Lange in the collection, 209 of the Manzanar Relocation Center (Series 8), and 482 of pre-evacuation activities in California cities (Series 14). Other WRA photographers include Francis Stewart, Hikaru Iwasaki, Joe McClelland, Tom Parker, Charles E. Mace, Gretchen Van Tassel, and others. The bulk of the photographs are 5 x 7 inch black and white prints that are housed in 88 volumes. One additional box contains oversize enlargements. In the container listing these enlargements are referred to as being in volume "AX1". Seven additional boxes (stored off-site) contain oversize enlargements duplicating photographs in the volumes. There is currently no concordance for these oversize duplicates. Organizational Note WRAs original organization has been maintained for Series 1-17. Within the container listing, Volume refers to the physical location where the Library has stored each photograph. Use this number when requesting an original or group of original photographs. Volumes "AX1" and "AX2" refer to oversize enlargements (see above) and should be requested as "BANC PIC 1967.014--AX box 1" (or box 2). Section refers to the WRA drawer number where the photographs were originally stored. Letters A-J (except I) were used and correspond to Series 1-17 as follows: Section A: Series 1-4 Section B: Series 5-7 Section C: Series 8-9 Section D: Series 10-11 Section E: Series 12 Section F: Series 13 Section G: Series 14 Section H: Series 15 Section J: Series 16-17 WRA no. refers to WRA's original alpha-numeric numbering system. This alpha-numeric combination is written on the front of the photographs and used to arrange them within the volumes. Series 18 (Slides) was not numbered by WRA and therefore has only volume and item numbers within each of four sub-series.

The Relocation Center, as its name implies, was a temporary residence for those of Japanese ancestry who were transferred from their homes along the West Coast under an emergency measure of 1942. Many of the evacuees during the past three years were able to resettle and find new homes in the middle west and eastern states.

From the first Azuo found center life intolerable and he resolved to relocate as quickly as possible. In the fall of 1942 he worked in Idaho sugar beet fields on seasonal leave. His absence from the center whetted his desire to re-establish himself and his family permanently.

He knows foreign trade well, having been engaged in the export-import trade and later a manager of chain stores on the West Coast before the war. Mr. Kageyama was born in Los Angeles in 1908. He attended public schools there and in Culver City, and received his college education at Stanford and Meiji Universities. At Manzanar he was employed in the statistics and records office. He came to New York City from that center during the summer of 1944 with Mrs. Kageyama, the former Carole Mori of Santa Maria, who he married in Los Angeles in 1939. Following their arrival in New York, Mrs. Kageyama took a stenographic position and Mr. Kageyama worked in a lapidary shop and made plastic novelties at night until they had saved enough money to set up his present business. He plans soon to open a subsidiary artificial flower business and also to employ several evacuee artists to paint porcelain and other household ware.

Volume 46, Joe Takeda, who with his family returned from Gila River to their ten-acre pear Section E, WRA orchard just north of San Jose on January 26, was one of the victims of fire and no. H-746 shooting by night riding hoodlums. Convinced that the incident does not in any way reflect the public sentiment of the community, Joe determined to go ahead as though nothing had happened. The Takeda home is very attractive and modern and the orchard is productive and well-kept although much hard work has been necessary to restore it to its present order. A daughter born to Joe's sister, just three weeks ago, brings the total occupants of the house to eight.

In spite of the fact that he has been here only a short time, Frank is now maturing one of the largest celery crops in the Santa Clara Valley--approximately 40 acres. Some indication of his business ability and of the attitude of the large banks toward relocation may be drawn from the fact that Frank recently borrowed $25,000 from a San Jose Bank with which to produce his celery crop.

We have no difficulty buying supplies of any kind if they are available at all and we have already had a number of buyers inquiring about our celery crop. With us everything is okay.

Sam found the various Government agencies cooperative and the banks ready to resume operations where they left off at evacuation time. His operation was financed by a large San Jose bank without difficulty. As soon as housing had been prepared, Sam sent for Haruko, his wife, and Leo, Buddy, Aiko, Uriko, and Emiko.

Mr. Shibuya returned to his beautiful home from Denver several months ago. He is from the Heart Mountain Center. Mr. Shibuya came to the United States when a young man, and after trying his hand at various jobs, found his way into floral culture near Palo Alto. After many years of painstaking labor, he developed the Shibuya strain of chrysanthemum from which he prospered and built one of the most beautiful homes in the Mountain View District. With him at the time the picture was taken were his charming daughter, Masago (M. A. Stanford), now employed at her Alma Mater, Maremaro, a son, until recently a high school student in Minneapolis, and T/S Yoshimaro, recent graduate from the University of Nebraska in Civil engineering--on leave from Camp Snelling, Minnesota. Another daughter, Madoka (M.A. Stanford in Chemistry), is now a student in Stanford Medical School in San Francisco.

Since returning to California in April, the Shibuyas have camped out in a small apartment and overflowed into a floral packing shed. However, their home is to be made available to them in a short time and then, Mr. Shibuya says the family will soon be much more comfortable. Commercially, this season has been largely lost to him, Mr. Shibuya says. It has been a season of clean-up and much replanting. By Spring, however, he hopes to be back in the production of many of the famous Shibuya blooms. Maremaro, a high school student and the baby of the family, plans to enter a nearby high school and help out on the nursery. Masago will manage the home in addition to her duties at Stanford University where she will be employed.

The family arrived in San Jose from Alda, Nebraska, via Heart Mountain and are living at Route 2, Box 383, San Jose, California. Shig has been mighty busy growing cucumbers, tomatoes and other vegetables--the orchard is leased for this year--but not too busy to declare time out for many civic duties. Among other things Shig is president of the recently activated San Jose Chapter of J.A.C.L., a member of the San Jose Council for Civic Unity and Secretary of the Hostel Board of Governors. The Masunaga family have as duration guests, Mrs. Masunaga's father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Kodama, and their three children. Five of the Kodama boys are in the Army and the balance of the family is waiting out the war at the Masunaga ranch. Shig has two brothers in the army, George in Germany and Shiro in Texas.

Nevertheless, this is a cucumber and not a fish story. They no. -141 are big, said Shig--of the embryo pickles--not the fish--but not quite up to cannery specifications. Shig--no one except the minister ever calls him by any other name--is back on his 50-acre orchard and vegetable farm at Route 2, Box 383, San Jose, California, from Alda, Nebraska, where the family had relocated from Heart Mountain Center in April, 1944. One year of farming in Nebraska satisfied any appetite Shig may have developed in Camp for tilling the soil outside of California. So early in February of this year Shig loaded the family into his truck and headed for home. With him were his 77-year-old father, Takamatsu, his wife, Hiroko, Patricia, aged 5, and baby, Eric, who had not yet seen his second natal day. Shig has a brother, George, with the 78th division in Germany and a brother, Shiro, training at Camp Hood, Texas. Shig is still talking about the cucumbers, the tomatoes, squash and bell peppers--not the fish--when he says, There are a lot of whoppers coming along out there.

Shosaku is in Australia with a Caucasian unit and Harry is in Europe with the famous 442nd Combat Team. The other three, James, George and Oscar, are training in this country. We will wait for Peace to come and bring our boys back to us, Mr. Kodama said. Then we will go back to growing vegetables here in San Jose where reception by the public is excellent.

Volume 80, Relocation from Heart Mountain presented few problems to the family of Eiichi Section K, WRA Sakauye, San Jose pear grower and his family.

Volume 80, From left to right are Kay Hamatani and Roy Nikiado.

He expects to take over the ranch this fall and operate it as he has done in the past. Mr. Hamatani has been very active in assisting in the relocation program and has made several trips to the different centers endeavoring to persuade the residents to relocate. Roy Nikiado owned an operated a florist shop prior to evacuation on Fourth Street, Sacramento, California, and anticipates re-opening the business in the near future. Mr. Henry Taketa is a prominent attorney with offices in Sacramento. These boys have met with considerable obstacles in obtaining permits for special types of construction in order to have this factory meet with local requirements, but due to their untiring efforts, it would appear that this enterprise will soon be in operation. Since Japanese noodles are comparable to bread with the Caucasians, it is estimated that the demand will be large and the enterprise should be successful.
