Harvest Help viii
Be Higher Priced

I'VE are making an active effort to
relieve the shortage in farm labor for
the harvest and threshing season."
said Commissioner of Agriculture and
Labor Flint, in letter to the Times.
Record Wednesday.
I'VE have been in touch with the
labor commissioners of the different
state to the south and the United
States department of labor since last
March, when Deputy w. Irysh repre-.
scented this department at the conven.
ton of the labor commissioners of the
plains states, at Kansas City. ~
1T was understood at that conven.
ton that the United States department
of labor would cooperate with the diff
ferent state departments Of the var
ious state in putting the jobless man in
touch with the manless job.
I'm May, when was in Washington,
l called on A. Caminetti, commission
er general of the United States labor
department., and requested that an
agent from his department be assign
ed for work with us in North Dakota
early in June. My understanding at
that time was that this request would
be complied with, but nothing further
was heard from this department until
recently. A telegram received a few
days ago would indicate that an agent
is to be assigned for cooperation with
us very soon.
Call indications point to shortage
of farm help during the fall season and
that prices will range considerably
higher even than last year. The class
of labor so far reaching the state is
not quite up to the usual standard ap-
parently, as complaints both personal
and by letter indicate. This no doubt
is due to the unusual existing indus
trial conditions. Many are permanently
employed and are not coming to this
state in such numbers as ordinarily.
lowing to the litigation Of the i'm
and labor appropriation, the
cooperation of the United States de-
partment Of labor at this time should
be of valuable assistance. 1t is to be
regretted that their agent was not as
signed to the state at least month
ago, so that better organization
could have been formed and informa-
ton secured of the demands of the
different sections. However, if the far
mers appreciate the effort on the part
of the labor departments and will CO.
operate with us, the work should be
productive of excellent results
