Describes requirements of "parolees" after resettlement, including writing bi-weekly personal reports for one's sponsor and a form regarding employment and compliance with "regulations governing the conduct of enemy aliens" to be submitted monthly to the district office of the Alien Control Division, and notes that most of the resettlers to the Stanford area are coming from Heart Mountain. The letter also describes problems with resettlement including lack of job opportunities suitable for resettlers and difficulties in securing housing, and says that the War Relocation Authority should be doing more to help former incarcerees. 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.
