During last season only 35,548 of the 9*7,373 farm placements made by the USES were men over 18 the reports showed. More than two- thirds of the farm workers placed were from the local communities, while 22 per cent were from Oregon points and 10 per cent from out of the state. With rationing and other travel restrictions, the proportion of out-of-state workers is expected to be 'further reduced in 1943. cording to Emory R. Worth, state director of the USES, will be: a publicity and advertising campaign; more adequate training supervision and wholesome “on-the-job” sur roundings for teen-aged boys and girls; better housing facilities for workers; stronger effort to curb drunkenness and other forms of ab senteeism; more active solicitation ’for clubs, church groups and or- ganizaiions, etc., to share the re- sponsibilities in the battle of food production. J. J. Fisher, manager Gresham Berry Growers, Inc., wai elected chairman of the farm advis ory group and Worth was chosqn secretary. The committee .represent ing farm groups in all parts of the state, was welcomed by Douglas Mullarky, representing Governoj Snell. The committee plans another meeting sometime in early Febru ary. Bright Side Stressed The bright side of the picture, however, was stressed by L. C. Stoll area director for the war manpower commission, who said that a leveling off of labor demands by several shipyards and the letdown in can tonment and other construction might help farmers in securing ex perienced year-’round machine men. “Oregon more than met its pro duction quotas last year, and I do not believe that any farmer need hesitate abyut planting still more essential crops this year,” Stoll said. However, several things must be done, agreed the conferees, to achieve a fuller utilization and bet ter distribution Of labor.
