Sobre este artículo
[Japanese American] Archive of four wartime documents produced by sources including the War Relocation Authority, which was tasked with overseeing the deportation and internment of approximately 100,000 Japanese Americans in camps scattered across the western states. Documents include:

Publisher [War Relocation Authority], 1943. n.p.: [War Relocation Authority], 1943. Staplebound pamphlet, 14 pages. Preface notes that "Approximately 100,00 people of Japanese descent are living today in War Relocation centers... The program has been sanctioned by the Department of Justice as sound from the standpoint of national security and has been approved by the War Manpower Commission as a contribution to national manpower needs." Apparently, this work was published to provide reassurance about the safety of allowing some Japanese American internees to work outside of the camps. Very good.
