Description

An article in The Saturday Evening Post told of the problems of the Japanese who were to be removed from California and the effect the vacancy of their farms will have on the state's economy. Especially in the Salinas Valley, they dominate in certain crops, but white farmers seemed to welcome their disappearance. Moving inland was explored by the Japanese farmers, but total evacuation was inevitable because safety and security of the West Coast was the overriding issue.
