commissioner Caminetti, in discussing
1c plan with members of Congress who
ave displayed interest. has given an
outline of what his bureau and the de-
pIrtment hopes TO do by utilizing pres
Snt governmental machinery for opera
uon as an employment agency.
Mr.. Caminetu believes that the plan
iii go far to solving the present-day
.abor problem. He believes IL will Iro-
NIde a permanent solution Of the Off
ficulty of obtaining harvest hands for
the Middle West every year, AID fruit
pckers and packers in California, Ore
son, and Washington orchards and
Vineyards. He believes, too. thet 1t will
aid in obtaining employment for the
occasional worker at times when there
ls no work for him in his regular line.
One feature of the plan which ap-
7eals particularly to Mr.. CaTinetti is
hat Of arranging with heads of big
1anufacturing institutions to give
hirty to 50 day lay-offs during Pacific
"oast fruit picking seasons to employees,
uho will be permitted to join the fruit
hsrvest workers for this period. and
rhen return to their regular employ
-ent
Asked To Cooperate.
The plan provides that heads of big
notify the department as to the number
Of men they can lay of during slack
periods in summer. California and the
other ruit-growing States on the coast
need ten times the normal amount of
labor for a couple Of months each
summer when the fruit croD Is har-
vested. Men. women, and children work
\ the orchards and vineyards. Mr..
Csminetti believes that hundreds of
'sctory workers would jump at the
nance of getting a change of work Of
this character, where they would be
