Labor leaders and many
growers expect that the law
of supply and demand will
send field wages skyrocket
ing. Depending on the point of
view, big wage boosts will de
press the produce industry,
causing unemployment - or
they would be a big step to
ward eliminating disgraceful
rural poverty.
Labor Leaders Mum
Labor leaders, already seek
ing to organize California
field workers, are keeping
tight-mouthed about their
plans for next year, but they
view the removal of braceros
as an enormous opportunity
and the unions are expected
to step up their efforts.
In the last four years, the
Agricultural Workers Organ
izing committee, AFL-CIO, is
thought by growers to have
signed up 8,000 members.
But its task went slowly
considering that the state has
nearly . 300,000 agricultural
workers.
The AWOC campaign was
marked by scattered strikes,
by some organizers being
shooed off farmers' property
with shotguns and by bitter
complaints that it is grossly
unfair to strike a rancher the
week his crop comes ripe.
Taamsiars Enter Picture
AWOC now has competition
from the Teamsters who have
begun signing up field work
ers in addition to some agri
cultural drivers and process
ing employees they already
had.
Absence of braceros will
not only make it easier for

the unions to bargain, but it
will create labor shortages in
which unions will have a
chance to prove a key con
tention.
If they help recruit and as
sign workers, they argue the
industry will gain stability be
cause eventualy they hope to
offer employers contracts,
binding in court, promising
the delivery of labor.
With the unions so encour
aged, one grower remarked,
"It's going to be a hot sum
mer." In the short run, at least,
all of this could drastically
boost prices to the housewife.
Without braceros, many
growers are afraid there will
be nobody around to harvest
their crops. If that happened
they can lose as much as
$2,000 an acre, usually bor
rowed, spent on rent, ferti
lizer, preparatory labor and
irrigation.
