Edith Green Plans Amendment
To Migrant Children Proposal
Franklin
By YVONNE FRANKLIN
Mail Tribuna
Washington Bureau
Washington (Special) - Lcr
Islatlon designed to protect
the children of migrant la
borers, but
which many
Oregon ians
feci ovcrpro
t e c t their
own, will be
amended b y
Rep. Edith
Green to meet
(he special
needs of Ore
gon. As passed
by the Senate, S.112U forbids
12 to 14-year-old children
from traveling over 25 miles
to pick crops. Mrs. Green said
she is considering such alter
natives as increasing the dis
tance to SO miles, or requir
ing employers to pay the
youngsters for the time it tak
es to travel to and from the
Job, without any precise mile
age limit.
S. 1 1 23 is now in the House
Rules Committee with no clue
as to when or if It will he re
ported to the House floor for
a vole. This is but one of a
series of ambitious bills which
a subcommittee spokesman
says were designed to give
the American agricultural
worker as decent standards of
work as the Mexicans who
are brought In to work the
large corporation farms on
contract.
The primary purpose of
S.1123 and companion bill
S.1124 Is to physically protect
and foster the education of
children of migrant workers
throughout the nation espe
cially in states less sensitive
to their needs than Oregon
which, among other things,
has set up programs to edu
cate them in the summertime.
Attempt To Bridge Gap
Very few states have child
labor laws governing agricul
ture, and the federal child la
bor laws do not cover chil
dren outside of regular school
hours. The pending bill is an
attempt to bridge the gap.
Mrs. Green has received
over 250 letters In the past
month protesting the bill. She
supports it and explains its
nurnose to those writing her.
She said that testimony Indi
cated that there have been
great abuses of children
throughout the country.
A committee spokesman
listed the physical hazards to
children who are immature
physically and mentally.
stressing that farming is the
third most hazardous occupa
tion after mining and con
struction. Thousands of acci
dents bcfnll children une
quipped to handle the machin
es on the increasingly more
automated corporation farms.
A concommitant of automa
tion is the acute need to edu
cate migrant children, not
only for their own well-being,
but to keep them off die
heavily swollen welfare and
unemployment rolls.
Traveling from slate to
state, which may or may not
have classroom space to en
roll them, or ignoring enforce
ment officials who generally
wink at compelling attend
ance, the children find them
selves from two to four years
behind their schoolmates. The
shame of this, as well as the
physical size of teenagers in
classes with ten and eleven
year olds, forces them to dropout.

Migrant children who work
after school hours are most
times too exhausted to do their
school work. They also often
arrive in areas during so
called crop vacation time and,
assuming they do enroll, may
never catch up with the resi
dent children.
Reports show that migrant
parents, usually with third
grade educations, do not un
derstand what is happening to
agriculture and assume jobs
will'always be available. They
say "a third grade education
was good enough for me and
it's good enough for my kid"
but, the experts keep saying,
it is not.
5.1123 plus S.1124 which
also passed the Senate, is an
attempt to help those children
whose parents can't or won't
see to it that they stay in
school and prepare for a fu
ture that may not include ag
ricultural work for them be
cause of automation.
Would Pay Costs
5.1124 provides that for two
years the federal government
would pay 100 per cent of
costs to State educational
agencies to help defray the
cost of educating migratory
children during the regular
school session. Thereafter it
would be matching grants. 11
also provides $300,000 i n
grants for each of five years
for summer schools for mi
grant children.
Also in the works are
S.1130, a Health Bill which
would provide certain public
health services, such as the
mobile treatment and innocu
lation clinics. Migrants usual
ly have no health care, and
states which have used mobile
units have effectively cut the
rate of communicable disease
and misery.
S.U31 provides Day Care
or nursery service to mothers
who go into the fields.
S.3382 requires that ade
quate sanitary facilities be
provided migrants.

Forest Visitors Are
Cautioned of Fire
In Mountain Areas
Visitors to Rogue River Na
tional forest areas have been
asked to use caution with fire
because of a drying trend dur
ing the past week.
Fishing was reported good
in many places with improved
weather, according to the
weekly recreation report from
Rogue River National forest.
By districts, the recreation
report is:
Alhland diitrici: Fishing at
Fish lake was good last week
end. Fish lake campground
and the facilities at the Fish
lake resort were filled to ca
pacity. Stream fishing is im
proving. The woods are now dry
enough for fires to spread rap
idly. Smokers and persons
building campfires are remind
ed that good judgment must
be applied to the use of fires.
Governor Hatfield has an
nounced that the Ashland Wa
tershed is closed to entry be
cause of fire danger. However,
the Ashland Loop road and
the Tolman Creek rd. will re
main open for through traffic.
Detailed information concern
ing this closure may be ob
tained from the district ranger
at Ashland.
Construction activity on the
new highway between Lake
of the Woods and Fish lake
may cause delays in travel.
The road is extremely rough.
The road from the Dead In
dian road to Fish lake has
been graded, and is in fairly
good shape. The Mt. Ashland
Loop rd. still is blocked by
snowdrifts.
Butte Falls District: All dis
trict roads are open and in
good condition. Motorists are
cautioned to watch for heavy
logging traffic during the
week days.
Willow Prairie and Snow
shoe campgrounds have been
enlarged. The new camp
grounds are now open as are
the other campgrounds. The
nights are still chilly and
campers are advised to take
warm clothing.
Ice is gone from Grass lake
in the Seven Lakes basin.
Snow still covers most of the
trail into the area.
Prospect district: This week
the roads on the Prospect
Ranger district are clear of
snow, except for the Umpqua
Divide rd. All roads are in
good condition except the Elk
Creek (Buzzard Mine) and
Grey Rock rds., which have
not yet been graded.
Fishing in the Rogue river
and the streams is normal
now, which means you might
catch fish and you might not.
The fish are there and willing
to bite if you give them the
right bait at the right time in
the right way.
Temperatures are running
10 to 12 degrees cooler at
Prospect than at Medford. The
nights are still cold.
Union Creek district: Forest
roads on the Union Creek dis
trict are closed by snow at ele
vations about 5,000 feet. Tour
ists are advised to use cau
tion on the lower portions of
the Huckleberry Mt. and National-Wizard
access roads be
cause of heavy logging truck
traffic.
A welcome change in the
climate has brought warm
weather and clear skies, mak
ing fishing conditions ideal.
Reported catches are many
and good.
With the exception of Huck
leberry Mt., all campgrounds
are now open.
To provide additional facili
ties at the Union Creek camp
ground, road construction will
continue throughout this
month, Monday through Fri
day. Beckies Cafe is open 6:30
a.m. to 9:30 p.m. standard
time. Tourist accomodations
are available at the Union
Creek resort. Supplies and gas
may be purchased from 7 a.m.
to 9 p.m. standard time.
