Report Holds Alien Labor Unnecessary
A presidential commission reported the United States does not need foreign farm laborers. It urged higher wages and living standards for Americans, noted about 1,000,000 migratory farm workers with 80 percent from Mexico, and said many cross the border illegally. The five member panel proposed a Federal Committee on Migratory Farm Labor, laws to curb illegal employment, priority conditions for Puerto Rico and Hawaii residents, union rights for migratory workers, state labor camps, rural housing, and expanded Social Security and health programs. President Truman urged careful consideration of the findings.
