Full title:Wherever Japanese American people have settled there's a demand for rice cakes, and Mr. Y. Hamano, Issei proprietor
of the Umeya Company in Denver, Colorado, has been very successful in supplying those demands. Formerly of Los Angeles, where
he was engaged in the same type of business, Mr. Hamano was evacuated to the Rohwer Relocation Center. In March, 1944, he
relocated to Denver, where he intends to remain. Twelve people are employed in his plant, and all are kept busy packing, wrapping,
and mailing packages of rice cakes to various parts of the country from which they receive orders. One of Mr. Hamano's sons
manages the Mikawa Sweet Shop, another of Mr. Hamano's enterprises. Shown at work mixing batter for rice cakes is one of Mr.
Hamano's employees, T. Kobayashi, formerly of Los Angeles and Rohwer Center.<lb/> Photographer: Mace, Charles E.<lb/> Denver,
