Harvest in Southwest 1919 Ends with No Sabotage Found
Kansas City report notes the 1919 Southwest harvest as the sanest in history. About 125000 harvesters moved from Oklahoma through Kansas to Nebraska earning around 60 cents an hour. Federal officials logged 190 alleged agitators on vagrancy charges with no sabotage complaints. College students and veterans led the labor, wages peaked at times at $15 a day, and shortages caused occasional panic but little crop loss.
