SEEK FOREIGN LABOR FOR
DOWN-STATE CANNERIES

GEORGETOWN, Del, Aug "a
Owing to scarcity Of local labor. can
ming men are seeking all the foreign
labor they can get, and with good
crop Of tomatoes on are facing a
shortage Of labor unless the cities
send more men and women.
One big operator has taken the
matter into his own hands and is
now in Baltimore hiring labor. Other
packers are sending out agents. The
tomato crop will be up to the stan
dard this year. but with the large
increase in factories, Sussex county
will pack more tomatoes than any
similar area in the country
Notwithstanding the fact that
