Gihor Sponsor* Need Support (Continued from Page 1) for the farmer or the community. In a letter sent to users of agri cultural labor this week, the spon soring association asked the growers to pay a fee of 45 cents an acre on row crop land. The association pointed out that "The demand for seasonal agricult ural workers has developed in the last 10 years to a point where labor is just as much a necessity as ma chinery in the planting and grow ing of a crop. Farmers in the main have not yet built enough housing on their farms to meet the labor needs. Therefore, other provisions have been and are necessary to house the migratory worker. "This association was organized during the war to act as an agent between the U. S. government and the farmer in the handling of Ger man war prisoners and Mexican nationals as seasonal agricultural workers. When the government stepped out of the labor placement and no longer operated the camp at Nyssa, It was necessary to continue the sponsoring association in order to lease the camp from the govern ment for housing agricultural lab or. Government law pertaining to such camps states that no private organization can own or operate the camp. The labor sponsoring associ ation leases the camp from the gov ernment and will eventually be able to buy it. "The association charges rental fees of $2 on tents and $3 10 on cab ins per week. These rentals help to defray the expense of maintain ing the camps. “There are many benefits deriv ed from having these camps avail able for labor. In 1949. we register ed 2500 workers in these camps. Even though you do not use camp labor, the fact that the camps are full stabilizes the price of labor. The cast to the farmer will average $15 to $20 |>er year. "The business people In the tow ns in the valley also receive added business during the season when migratory labor is present. The migratory laborers take very little money with them and when you stop to think that at peak employ ment the daily payroll of migratory labor will run from $10.00 to $12,000 per day, you can readily appreciate the importance of the program.
