"Loyal Americans All. These Japanese-American girls, born and reared in this country, are doing what they can for this country's victory. They've formed a volunteer San Francisco Red Cross unit, to which fifteen other Japanese-American girls belong. They are Nisei, or, second generation Japanese. Left to right: Frances Miwa, Alice Murai and Mrs. Roy Ishikawa." -- caption on photograph.
"Japanese-Americans sew for Red Cross. Demonstrating their loyalty to this country, members of the Japanese-Alameda Citizens League of Alameda are working around the clock to produce garments for distribution to war victims through the Red Cross. Here Mrs. Saku Mitani, 80, operates a sewing machine while Toshiko Kado, left, and Tazuko Wakabayashi, right look on. More than 100 women members of the League have worked 2000 hours in making garments since the Pacific War began." -- caption on photograph.
