Description
Full title:Mr. Kiyoshi (Ideta) Minami, formerly of Seattle, Washington, and the Minidoka Relocation Center, brought his wife and five children to Des Moines, Iowa, a year ago because a Center is no place for children to grow up. They become spoiled. He purchased a 12-room house in a fine old residential section of Des Moines, 2023 W. Grand Avenue. The two older Ideta girls attend Drake University and the third daughter and two sons are in public schools. The Ideta family rent rooms to Caucasian and Japanese-Americans in their home and they also rent a six-room unfurnished apartment over their garage. Mr. Ideta-Minami said that he would be glad to answer letters of inquiry from Center residents who would like to know more about Iowa. As a side-line, Mr. Ideta-Minami sells oriental provisions. Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru Des Moines, Iowa.
