Nisei Cameraman Counts Over Quarter-million Shots Of Pres. Johnson
WASHINGTON.—How many trucks will it take to
• haul President Lyndon B. Johnson’s snapshot album
: to Texas ?
j
This question was posed recently by the New York
| Times staff here as they pointed out there are rej portedly 250,000 photographs of Mr. Johnson on file
in an unmarked photo laboratory in Georgetown.
j
This largest collection of candid pictures ever made
( of an American President is largely the work of one
j man whose name is never seen on the White House
1 daily appointments list.
Yet, Yoichi Robert Okamoto, a photographer born
> in Yonkers, N.Y., has been Mr. Johnson’s shadow for
' virtually his entire administration.
§250,000 a Year
The New York Times said his operation has been
estimated' by other photographers to cost the govern­

ment $250,000 a year.
One man who has seen it at first hand calls the
figure “on the low side.” He estimated that just the
salaries of Okamoto, two assistant presidential photo­
graphers, a researcher and about 20 on the laboratory
staff might total about $230,000.
Some people are appalled by the size and expense
of Mr. Johnson’s picture operation. Others believe the
price is little enough to pay for pictures that will be
priceless to historians.
They depict the President alone, with his family,
with other world leaders at moments of critical de­
cisions, in his most light-hearted moods, showing' him­
self to the public and withdrawing into intimate scenes.

Future Famous Photos
“These pictures will someday be as famous as
Mathew Brady's pictures of the Civil War,” said one

government official who disapproves but cannot help
seeing the historical value of the collection.
Those who know Mr. Johnson say his motivations
are bound up in his great sense of history and of his
role in it. Some mention his vanity and his wish to
have day-to-day control over the selection and release
of pictures.
In addition to those photographs that the President
will keep, probably winding up in the Lyndon Baines
Johnson library at the University of Texas, there are
uncounted tens of thousands of others.
These, too, have been processed at the lab in
Georgetown, which is locked and under tight security.
Even a White House pass will not gain entry for a
visitor, the Times report said.
This second category of photos would include the

Chatham Nisei Awarded
$29,800. U.S Science Grant

Nisei In Europe j Former
This week we continue our series entitled “Nisei In Europe”
by New Canadian writer Thomas T. Mitsunaga of Lethbridge, Al­
berta on his impressions of his recent visit to Europe.

By THOMAS T. MITSUNAGA
Perhaps there is no more arresting sight than the sight of
the Yeomen Warders or as they are popularly called “beefeaters”.
These warders are exclusive to the Tower. Their attire goes back
Io the Tudor era and they consist of a scarlet tunic with black
and gold trimmings, white fluted collars and knee high hoses. On
their shoes they sport a huge, silver buckle and this is topped off
|w a wide brimmed black hat with a chain of medals and metal
adornments. The yeomen warders are complemented by a staff
of guards in more orthodox uniforms not unlike those we saw at
the palace. A sentry is to be seen at the west entrance. He is the
sentry one sees in travel folders, a man totally oblivious of every­
thing. A story is told of one guard who was taunted by an Ameri­
can girl who wrote “I like IKE” all over his scarlet tunic. He took
one step forward and stamped his feet s^ hard he broke his shin
bones on impact. A more appropriate measure may have been a
swift boot to the posterior of the Yankee lass.

That night a conference was held between Fred and myself
for we had both been intoxicated by the spell of London town. The
upshot was that we would hire an Oxford guide the next day and
get more intimate with the city which was casting its spell over the
visitors from Canada. These Oxford guides are students at English universities who guide visitors during their holidays for
a fee. It includes a mini car which permits the penetration into
parts of the city which are inaccessible by tour buses.

CHATHAM, Ont.—A 28-year-old former Chatham Nisei. Dr. Albert Kudo, has been awarded
a $29,800 U.S. grant from the U.S. National
Science Foundation.
Son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Kudo of Prince
Street, Dr. Kudo will use the grant to enable
him to continue research on “detailed crystalliza­
tion history of volcanic rocks.”
An assistant professor of geology at the Univ­
ersity of New Mexico, Dr. Kudo was born in

British Columbia. He moved to Chatham with his
family at the age of five and attended the former
central school in the city and also the Chatham
Collegiate Institute.
He later studied at University of Toronto, Mc­
Master University in Hamilton and the University
of California.
Earlier this year, he received a $55,000 NEF
grant to buy for the department of geology an
electron microprobe used in the research. Thai
। grant was
matched
by equal
| funds from his university.

Sansei Wins Car For Parents
VANCOUVER.
Homework
paid off for Tim Tanaka, 9, of
3117 East Forty-seventh in Van­
couver.
Tim, a Grade 4 student at Dr.
George M. Weir school, prac­
tised an hour on his own trad:
before breaking the slot-car re­
cord at the Pacific National Ex­
hibition recently.

He was declared winner of the
1969 Javelin car offered to the
fastest driver
of the slot-car
track at the show.

Ian Austin, a West Vancouver

teen-ager whose 10-day record
was clipped by .2 seconds, was
disappointed
but
philosophical
about his loss.

Dr. Kudo’s field work concen­
trates on the Mogollong Plateau
region in the Gila Wilderness in
southeast New Mexico. Volcanic
rock abounds in this area near
Silver City.
The research will attempt to
duplicate with the aid of the
microprobe and other sophisticat­
ed devices the pressure and tem­
perature conditions of rock just
prior to volcanic eruptions.

At 9:30 the next morning, Rachel our guide met us at
hotel. She was a comely Irish lass studying in London. From the
1st of places we wanted to see, she picked Shepherd’s Market
which our guide could, not easily find as it was not a tourist spot.

Picadilly Circus was next on our itinerary. My concept of the
P:c was not fully crystallized until this time. I had pictured it to
be anything from a circus ground to a village square. It was
neither tor the Pic is simply a huge traffic circle at whose centre
is the iamous statue of Eros, the goddess of love. The steps lead­
ing up to Eros now form an encampment for London hippies of
whom there were many to be seen this d’ay. Three main London
arteries, the Regent. Shaftesbury and Picadilly come together
here and the traffic jam is something to behold. The whole
mechanized mass moves clockwise around it and the huge Coca
Cola and the Guiness clock signs are there just as they are in
Jie travel folders.

In addition, Dr. Kudo hopes to
discover from what depth the
rock was erupted and how much
water pressure was involved in
the process.

His father is a custodian at the
Chatham Public General Hospital.
His wife is the former Margaret
Moriyama of Vancouver. They
have four children.
While at the University of Tor­
onto, he received a $400 scholar­
ship from the Mobil Oil Compa­
ny of Canada Ltd. He was an
honor student at the university.
