Labor Department Plans for Mexican Labor Recruiting
The Labor Department prepares to recruit Mexican workers as Congress readies a $478,000 appropriation to fund recruiting stations. An agreement with Mexico, signed in Mexico City, renews a program through December 31, 1955, and avoids border recruitment without Mexico’s permission. Ambassador Francis White and Acting Foreign Minister Jose Gorostiza signed the pact as President Eisenhower weighed the bill.

If adopted, Chavez could be unseated with Gov. Mechem potentially appointing a temporary successor. Democrats might back Jayne Morse of Oregon for the seat, while Hurley’s 1932 contest remains a parallel case.
