Full title:Supper time! Meal times are the big events of the day within an assembly center. This is a line-up of evacuees
waiting for the B shift at 5:45 P.M. They carry with them their own dishes and cutlery in bags to protect them from the dust.
They, themselves, individually wash their own dishes after each meal, since dish washing facilities in the mess halls prove
inadequate. Most of the residents prefer this second shift because they sometimes get second helpings, but the groups are
rotated each week. There are eighteen mess halls in camp which, together, accommodate 8,000 persons three times each day.
All food is prepared and served by evacuees. The poster seen in the background advertises the candidacy of Mr. Suzuki from
this precinct.<lb/> Photographer: Lange, Dorothea<lb/> San Bruno, California.
