Page 2_________________PIONEER______________May 26, 1943 G R A N A D A P I O N E E R Published Wednesdays and Saturdays by the WRA and distributed free to each apartment. Editorial of- fice: PIONEER building, Amache, Colorado. Telephone: 63. Editor: Khan Komai. Letter TO THE EDITOR LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Like all of the mothers in camp I buy fresh fruits and vegetables in order to provide extra nourishment for the children. We are thankful that they have added such a department to our stores. In handling fresh things which are perishable, I feel as many do that not enough attention is given by the clerks to the con- dition of the food. And being amongst Japanese we just take for granted that we are given food still edible, but quite the contrary, I bought 6 apples at 5¢ each and out of these, 4 were soft, brown or spoiled. If the occurrence was infrequent we would let things go, but it happens time and again. The fresh products being as high as it is we want to bet the full bene- fit of the amount for which we paid. When we speak of these incidents to the clerks they tell us to bring them back, but what about moth- ers who bring their chil- dren from 11 or 12K? Two trips to the store and half of their busy day would be gone. Hoping my letter may be read by the proper person and save us mothers who are trying to keep our Children healthy and also meet other necessary needs with the small amount of |16 a month.
