Describes work performing soil analysis at the agricultural experiment station in Lincoln, Nebraska and asks about a "special provision" that McFarling had mentioned for people who have resettled to secure Farm Services Administration (FSA) loans; when he inquired at the local FSA and War Relocation Authority offices, Takunaga was told that there were no such special provisions for loans. Letter asks that McFarling explain FSA and other government loan programs; requests the McFarling provide the memorandum number and exact text of the paragraph detailing the agreement between the FSA and the WRA; and states that people who are relocating need McFarling's help, given that "half of the people have relocated but the problem[s] of relocation have only begun." This collection contains materials generated by J. Ralph McFarling, a Community Analyst for the War Relocation
Authority, documenting the Amache Concentration Camp in Granada, Colorado where Japanese-Americans were incarcerated
during World War II.
