Genuine alarm is felt in farming and food distributing circles of the Pacific coast states over the shortage in farm labor and the prospect that it will be impossible this year to har- vest the grains and fruits of the great food-producing districts of these states. ) ; Land in” California is held in large tracts and owned largely by men of substantial wealth. To harvest their crops with the aid of men resident in the community is out of the ques- tion. They depend upon the great army of migratory laborers who are also the backbone of other important western industries. These laborers have gone from harvest to harvest or from lumber camp to construction camp, leading the lives of vagabonds, finding it difficult or impossible to save, and_living most*of the time in unsanitary quarters. This year they are otherwise employed, and their de- sertion of the migratory labor field threatens a serious economic crisis. WOULD LET BARS DOWN TO CHINESE ‘Wheat and dried fruits from the Pacific coast are important items.in the feeding of the armies and our allies. To meet the situation, the farm labor committee of the Califor- nia state council of defense has brought in a report urging the im- portation of Chinese labor. The plan has been indorsed also by E. H. Gary, chairman of the hoard of directors of the steel corporation. The acute need for farm labor is seized upon as the entering wedge for a policy of wholesale importations. interests are for letting down the flood gates and diluting America’s labor force and its racial stock with millions of Chinese. the abstract right or wrong of re- strictions on such immigration, all liberal thinkers are agreed that for the present a policy of encouraging Chinese immigration would immense- ly complicate and intensify some of our most acute social and economic problems. TIME TO FORCE OPENING OF LAND The California problem is little dif- ferent from that in Texas and other great Yood-producing states. The reports of Professor Elwood Mead of the University of California, the tes- timony of ‘Commissioner Herbert Quick of the Federal Farm Loan board, the reports of the department of agriculture,—all show that the best agricultural land in this country is being monopolized in the hands of a comparatively few men; that vast acreages of it are held out of use by speculating owners at prohibitive pricés, and that farming has become an almost utterly prohibited business for the man without considerable capital. S : How, then, can we expect Ameri- ' can workers to engage in farm la- bor? Government investigations have ~shown that there are plenty of men in the country; labor shortages are a matter of faulty distribution of la- bor, not actual shortage. How can : farming be made so attractive that it ~will automatically: ‘draw- to it the - necessary quota of able-bodied Amer- Dakotaj any;states each e Free Press. | /icans—Americans of the sort that can' PAGHTWENTYNINE 0 0 0 i i pre e SN AR NI, S 1T 2 O L ‘ o Powerful Regardless of ADVERTISEMENTS Stop!
