Description
Full title:Itaro Nakatsu, 37-year-old citizen, came to San Jose from Gila to have a look see at relocation around his old pre-evacuation stamping ground. Soon he had hooked up in a vegetable crop share deal with his brother-in-law, Sam Isamu Uchiyama, near Mountain View, California. The camera caught him in the act of giving his thirsty acres a liberal drink of California aqua pura. Itaro quickly converted to indefinite leave and, armed with a few carpenter tools, set about converting an old packing shed into water tight if inartistic living quarters for his wife, Joan, and four children. Now the family address is Mountain View, California, and the chief order of business for all hands is adding to the Nation's war effort by producing vegetables. When not busy on the truck garden, the entire family picks fruit for nearby Caucasian neighbors. The children are Naomi, Herbert, James and Kenneth. Those of school age will enter the Mountain View public school this coming fall term. Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru Mountain View, California.
