Full title:Miss Dorothy Takechi from Manzanar, talking with the noted author, Carey McWilliams, whose recent book, Prejudice, on the subject of the relocation of Japanese-Americans, is probably the most comprehensive volume on this topic. Mr. McWilliams in this picture has just finished speaking before the weekly luncheon meeting of the Municipal League at Clifton's Broadway Cafeteria in Los Angeles. Clifford Clinton, that outstanding and extraordinary citizen, is interested in racial friendship and employs Nisei at the two cafeterias. Miss Takechi was from Manzanar and has been with national headquarters of the Y.W.C.A. She came to Los Angeles in June, and was assigned to make a survey in connection with the Y.W.C.A. of Los Angeles. She was much interested in Mr. McWilliams' talk, especially his comparison of race-baiting with Hitler's Nazi tactics in Germany. He pointed out that if not stopped this agitation would spill over against Negroes, Jews, etc. Photographer: Mace, Charles E. Los Angeles, California.
