The boys had a hard time finding a vacant place for their business, because stores are almost as difficult to rent as houses,
due to crowded conditions. They have just opened this new radio service store on the main street in Pasadena. Jiro went to
Chicago first after leaving Gila River, and Satoru first relocated in Denver after leaving Topaz. Their families have not
yet come back to California, due to housing shortages. No trouble at all about conditions, community acceptance or jobs--just
housing, and that's a problem no matter what one's race, they say.<lb/> Photographer: Mace, Charles E.<lb/> Pasadena, California.
