the present demands for harvest help,
Fargo employment agencv men re-
ported yesterday. The shortage Of
men felt the first Of the week has dis
appeared, they say. We have had
enough men to I'LL every call we've
had where SO was offered the man
ager of one office said last night
farmers in the country who are Of
fcring less than that amount we
haven't been able to fill.'"
6. Ethelbert Stewart, acting COM
missioner of labor statistics, depart
ment of labor, in n letter dated June
%, 1917, speaking of industrial labor
throughout the country. said: "Of
course. there might be local scarcity,
and of course. again, there might be
scarcity without this bureau having
the definite evidence of the fact, but
so far ms any information that we have
or that has been obtained by our
agents. it exists only in newspaper
headlines"
Z. As TO the farm labor of the
present season. under date Of August
4, w. J. Spillman, chief. Office of farm
management, department of agricul-
turc, writes: "As yet we have no
definite report that gives us anything
like n statistical review of the matter,
but we have correspondence which in
dicates that there has been n very
large use of inexperienced farm help
this year. NOR especially in simple
tasks, such as harvesting wheat, pick
ing up potatoes. gathering tomatoes,
peaches and the like, but there has
also been large use of inexperienced
men for regular farm work. In many
cases these men have made good. al
though they are of course not as sat
isfactory as experienced men"
8. Director Charles b. Barnes, bu-
reau of employment. State Industrial
Commission, writes from New York,
August 13: "It is undoubtedly true
that there is at the present time no
scarcity of labor in this country, un-
less it would be in the line of common
labor which is required to do heavy,
hot and dirty work. This country will
require an extensive system of public
employment offices to enable the prop
er shifting of labor to be carried on
between one section and another. and
also to give accurate information as to
where labor can be found which will
be willing to take up new trades and
be retrained for special work. This
bureau has found in some instances
where there have been requests made
for the extension of hours of women
that the plant was not paying sufii-
cient wages to bring the desired help.
The farm situation in some sections
of New York state was, and will be
for the next two or three weeks,
rather acute. This is largely because
the farmer feels he cannot afford to
pay the wages demanded by those who
are willing to take up farm work. Our
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-09-01
MEMORANDUM AS TO LABOR SUPPLY
From J. W. Sullivan to Herbert Hoover.

/. Commissioner Of Labor Nc
Laughlin. Of California, in a report
on the subject Of farm labor in that
state, issued in June, stated that the
supply was sufficient, merely needing
organization to meet the requirements
of gathering the crops. The San
Francisco Chamber Of Commerce,
after making its own investigation,
reported to the same general effect.
The trouble was not in a shortage, but
in a neglect of the state to establish
system which would care for the
distribution of the farm labor rcgu-
larly year in and year out.
Q. Simon J. Lubin, president of the
State Commission on Housing and Inn
migration, in n public statement says:
THE need for labor in California does
not refer 10 permanent employment,
but is merely a demand for large num-
bers of men and women whose serv-
ices will be required for only brief
periods"
8. A. W. Jones, director Public En-
ploymcnt Bureau, Portland, Oregon,
writes August 6: mo particular
shortage prevails, except possibly a
shortage OF calkcrs only in the ship
wards. As to common labor, we have
no difficulty filling orders for any
number of men where n reasonable
wage offer accompanies the order, or
where no strike or other labor trouble
exists. We are in almost daily touch
with the county agricultural agents
of the several counties of Oregon, and
all report no labor shortage in their
district in the handling Of the present
harvest. would not feel justified
in saying there was n labor shortage
in view of the fact that any day be-
tween Z n. m. and p. m. we have from
two to four thousand men passing
through our rooms investigating what
we have to offer in the line of work
As a matter of fact, men seem to be
rs plentiful as they were at any time
during last winter"
4. The Official Bulletin tWashing-
ton, D. c. Monday, July l6, reported: /:
"No acute shortage of farm labor re-
ported from the West" On July g.,
the bureau of immigration had tele-
graphcd to the state commissioners in
the middle western states asking as
to the supply of agricultural labor.
The department later reported: Re
plies have been received from practic-
ally all Of the states and indicate that
the harvest help situation has been
carefully and efficiently handled by
Mr.. Barkman in cooperation with the
state officials" The replies came from
directors and commissioners of labor
in various states (Oklahoma, Kansas,
Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, and North
Dakota. They refuted the stories Of
n general shortage of farm labor in
the states reporting.
s. From the Fargo, North Dakota.
Daily Courier-News. August 81:
Enough men are being found to fill
