Full title:Johnny Mishima (left) and George Tanaka have just completed the process of chrome plating a machined part at a
plant in Cleveland. Johnny, from Heart Mountain, where his father still resides, had been on the job only 10 days when the
picture was taken; lives with the foreman of the shop; makes 75 cents an hour. At Heart Mountain he was physical education
instructor in the [high] school. George Tanaka, from Minidoka Relocation Center, where he was a foreman with the internal
security division, operated his own grocery store in Portland, Oregon, before evacuation. He and his wife live temporarily
with a minister while looking for a place of their own. Not as good as being in business for yourself, but a lot better than
being in a relocation center, he says. His wife works as a sewing machine operator in a textile establishment making clothing
for the Navy.<lb/> Photographer: Brumbach<lb/> Cleveland, Ohio.
