HOME OWNERS MUST BEGIN EVICTION ACTION AT ONCE

Two or three months are frequently needed to remove a tenant from the residence he is presently occupying, whether the residence is owned by the evacuee, or by one of his children, according to an announcement received from the office of Project Attorney Alan G. Campbell.

"Many owners of homes are surprised to find that the two or three weeks they have allowed themselves for the legal procedure is insufficient, and as a result they have had to delay their relocation plans," stated Mr. Campbell today.

"Even though they may not plan to leave the center until late November, I urge all parents who plan to return to their home, or one owned by their children, to come to my office so that I may begin at once on the procedures necessary to remove the present tenant. In obstinate cases sixty or ninty days are sometimes necessary to complete the eviction", Mr. Campbell stated.

RED CROSS BOARD ACCEPTS PRESIDENT SUGIMOTO RESIGNATION

At a meeting of the Manzanar Red Cross Chapter held Friday evening the resignation of Mr. Sokishi Sugimoto, President of the organization was accepted.

Mr. Sugimoto had tendered his resignation nearly a month ago when he left the center on Short Term Leave, but the board refused to accept it since Mr. Sugimoto was not leaving on Terminal Departure.

Mr. Sugimoto will leave the center on Terminal Departure next Saturday to establish his residence in Los Angeles.

The Red Cross Board decided on the final disposition of books, toys and other properties when a motion to divide them between the several Internment Centers and Tule Lake was approved. Some furniture and equipment will be offered to the nearby communities of Lone Pine and Independence.
