Full title:Relocation completed. This is the final entry in the file of Akira Ichikawa, recent arrival from Heart Mountain
Center. With the exception of Pfc. Buster in Italy and brothers, Tom and James, who are in Detroit, the Ichikawas are comfortably
housed on the picturesque Tuso ranch near Campbell and hard at work growing prunes and cots. This shot shows front row, left
to right, Richard, May and Ben, and back row, Akira, Toshiro, his father and mother, Masano. Rose, a sister of Akira, was
at work in nearby Palo Alto when the picture was taken. Prior to evacuation the family lived in Watsonville. When Akira and
Rose came back to California early in April of this year they passed up the apple town for San Jose and a job for all the
hands on the ranch of his Caucasian friend and benefactor, William Tuso. Tom and James, in Detroit, are undecided as to when
they will return. Both are now in defense work. But anyway relocation is a thing of the past for the Ichikawa family.<lb/>
