Crop Harvesting
To Need Many
More than 60,000 women arid
children aided in the harvesting of
Oregon crops for the 1942 season
and yet more will be needed this
year, was the consensus of reports
from the United States employment
service in a two-day session with
the state agricultural advisory com
mittee in Salem last week.
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.
