This two page representative issue of the Communique dated October 27, 1942 includes articles such as "Local Girl Weds Army
Corporal," "Procedure for Cashing Paychecks Explained," and announcements for a "get acquainted dance," and both Protestant
and Buddhist services. The Communiqué, published at the Jerome Relocation center in Denson Arkansas, focuses primarily on
issues pertaining to camp life with headlines such as "Men Needed to Clear Land," "Diarrhea not Infections," and "Halloween
Dance Leads off Holiday." This two to three page, semiweekly "official bulletin of the Jerome relocation center" later went
on to become the Denson Tribune, the Camp's newspaper.
