This should get you started:

 String jsonString = "PUT JSON STRING HERE";
    JsonObject object = new JsonObject(jsonString);
    JsonArray tables = object.getJsonArray("table1");
    for(JsonObject value: tables){

        JsonArray items = value.getJsonArray("items");
        for(JsonObject item: items){
            Log.i("TAG",item.toString());
        }

    }

Keep in mind this solution does not have any error handling. I also have not tested this, I just quickly wrote it.
