Before World War II, Chimata Sumida owned a music store located in Los Angeles’ Japanese Town that sold music, instruments, radios, and other small electronics. After 3 FBI interrogations, Chimata and his worker, Yoshio Takashima, were arrested on January 16, 1942, detained at the Los Angeles County Jail, transferred to Tuna Canyon Detention Station, and interned at the Fort Missoula Alien Detention Center.<br>\r\n\r\nThe collection begins with a series of letters between Chimata Sumida written during his internment in the Fort Missoula Alien Detention Center to and from his wife and children. These censored letters describe the harsh conditions and social atmosphere at Ft. Missoula and chaotic life in Los Angeles preparing for the upcoming Executive 9066 evacuation and its consequences. An important portion of this collection are copies of documents contained in Chimata Sumida’s U.S. Department of Justice file obtained from the U.S. Archives. Contained in this file are Chimata’s testimony during his Alien Enemy Hearing Board, the docketed Department of Justice Alien Enemy Hearing Board Report with its split 2-1 decision recommendation in favor of internment, the Memorandum to the Chief of the Review Division recommending parole, and the final Order signed by Attorney General Biddle granting parole under the conditions and restrictions indicated in the document.<br>\r\n\r\nAfter Chimata Sumida’s transfer to Rohwer Relocation Center, he soon became a prominent Issei leader of the camp. He met 6 days a week with more than 600 Issei nightly who listened to his translation of American News into Japanese. He served as a committeeman on the Resettlement Advisory Board and was chairman of the Resettlement Committee organized by the Community Council. In addition, he collaborated with two other Issei, T. Takashima and S. Muraoka, to submit a proposal to various U.S. government agencies to establish cooperative colonies in rural areas of the United States suitable for farming to relocate 13,000 settlers from various WRA relocation camps. This plan was ultimately rejected by Dillon Myer, Director of the War Relocation Authority.<br>\r\n\r\nAfter leaving Rohwer Relocation Camp in 1945, Chimata and Masako Sumida resettled in Washington, D.C. with their children and grandchildren. Most of the Sumida family eventually moved back to the west coast. However, the Endos remained in the Washington, D.C. area and remained active in the community. They participated in many civil rights events including the 1963 March on Washington.","links_children":"ddr-densho-379","language":["eng","jpn"],"contributor":"Densho","public":"1","rights":"cc","status":"completed","search_hidden":"","download_large":"ddr-densho-379-734-mezzanine-d569eaec62-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-one-5-114","model":"entity","index":"13 13/{'value': 16, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-one-5-114/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-one-5-114/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-one-5/ddr-one-5-114-mezzanine-c7c08a45b9-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-one-5/ddr-one-5-114-mezzanine-c7c08a45b9-a.jpg"},"title":"Letter written on behalf of Keizaburo Koyama by Mr. and Mrs. A.C.

Mrs. Goodenough notes that per the morning newspaper, the Examining Board for Dr. Koyama's hearing leaves for Missoula, Montana on January 31st and that a relative or friend may be present. She asks if Dr. Koyama's wife could attend of if she herself could. She states that it would be difficult to leave her husband's side, but she would make the trip on Dr. Koyama's behalf if the board felt it would help his case. She emphasizes her and her husband's status as Americans and complete belief in Dr. Koyama's innocence, but would suspend their efforts on his behalf should he be found guilty. Mrs. Goodenough asks for the board's favor and to review a written statement signed by other American citizens on behalf of Dr. Koyama.","extent":"1 photocopy: 8.50 W x 14 H","links_children":"ddr-one-5-114","creators":[{"role":"author","namepart":"Goodenough, Mrs. A.C."}],"topics":[{"term":"World War II -- Support from the non-Japanese American community","id":"80"}],"format":"doc","language":["eng"],"persons":[{"namepart":"Nichols, Alice"},{"namepart":"Dr. Koyama"},{"namepart":"Biddle, Francis"}],"contributor":"Japanese American Museum of Oregon; Portland, Oregon","rights":"cc","genre":"correspondence","location":"Portland, Oregon","creation":"January 21, 1942","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Goodenough, Mrs. A.C. author Nichols, Alice \nDr. Koyama \nBiddle, Francis","download_large":"ddr-one-5-114-mezzanine-c7c08a45b9-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-one-5-112","model":"entity","index":"14 14/{'value': 16, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-one-5-112/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-one-5-112/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-one-5/ddr-one-5-112-mezzanine-15d8b55736-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-one-5/ddr-one-5-112-mezzanine-15d8b55736-a.jpg"},"title":"Letter written on behalf of Keizaburo Koyama by Mr. and Mrs. A.C.

They are writing in response to a letter by Mrs. Alice Nichols of Seattle, Washington about Dr. Koyama. They state that they have known the Koyamas for 14 years, first meeting them when they were newly married and with a small child. The Goodenoughs mention that Dr. Koyama was still in dental school and that his wife, though Japanese, was very Americanized. Mrs. Nichols was acquaintances with the Koyamas and introduced them to the Goodenoughs shortly after the Koyamas left Seattle for Portland.

The letter continues, stating that early on in their relationship with the Koyamas, Mrs. Koyama confessed to a mistake they had made in the past. The Koyamas wanted to make sure that their friendship with the Goodenoughs was a loyal and honest one. The Goodenoughs do not elaborate on the nature of the mistake, stating it was \"not to [sic] serious, certainly not un-American.\" Mrs. Goodenough notes that the Koyamas lived with them for a year and wholly earned their trust and love and came to see the Koyamas as family. Further on, Mrs. Goodenough adds that her husband has been unwell for the last five years and during that time, the Koyamas never once betrayed their trust or took advantage of them. Mrs. Goodenough  feels that Dr. Koyama did nothing to warrant being picked up and that any association he may be part of would not garner government interest if it had been peacetime. She feels that Dr. Koyama is a loyal American and would never harm either the United States or her and her husband.","extent":"1 photocopy: 8.50 W x 14 H","links_children":"ddr-one-5-113","creators":[{"role":"author","namepart":"Goodenough, Mrs. A.C."}],"topics":[{"term":"World War II -- Support from the non-Japanese American community","id":"80"}],"format":"doc","language":["eng"],"persons":[{"namepart":"Dr. Koyama"}],"contributor":"Japanese American Museum of Oregon; Portland, Oregon","geography":[{"term":"Montana","id":"498"}],"rights":"cc","genre":"correspondence","location":"Portland, Oregon","facility":[{"term":"Fort Missoula","id":"30"}],"creation":"January 21, 1942","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Goodenough, Mrs. A.C. author Dr. Koyama","download_large":"ddr-one-5-113-mezzanine-b02e122fb8-a.jpg"}],"query":{"query":{"query_string":{"query":"Alien Enemy Hearing Board","fields":["id","model","links_html","links_json","links_img","links_thumb","links_children","status","public","title","description","contributor","creators","creators.namepart","facility","format","genre","geography","label","language","creation","location","persons","rights","topics","image_url","display_name","bio","extent","search_hidden"],"analyze_wildcard":false,"allow_leading_wildcard":false,"default_operator":"AND"}},"aggs":{"facility":{"nested":{"path":"facility"},"aggs":{"facility_ids":{"terms":{"field":"facility.id","size":1000}}}},"format":{"terms":{"field":"format"}},"genre":{"terms":{"field":"genre"}},"rights":{"terms":{"field":"rights"}},"topics":{"nested":{"path":"topics"},"aggs":{"topics_ids":{"terms":{"field":"topics.id","size":1000}}}}},"_source":["id","model","links_html","links_json","links_img","links_thumb","links_children","status","public","title","description","contributor","creators","creators.namepart","facility","format","genre","geography","label","language","creation","location","persons","rights","topics","image_url","display_name","bio","extent","search_hidden"]}}
