Note:
Full title:Members of the staff and volunteer helpers reassemble a privately owned Japanese typewriter to be used for the
Japanese language edition of the Heart Mountain Sentinel, Center newspaper. The paper is wrapped around the rubber cylinder,
the typist pushes the roller riding platen over the bed of type. After picking the next character, a lever is operated which
picks up the type, presses it against the paper and replaces it in its niche. Complicated in appearance and operation, due
to the shorthand characteristics of Japanese writing, the advance of thought is nearly equal in speed to a standard English
typewriter.<lb/> Photographer: Parker, Tom<lb/> Heart Mountain, Wyoming.
