HARRIS SUGGESTS S
PLAN FOR HELP

J. II. Harris, cotton farmer of the
Imperial country, called at The Press
) office this morning and offered what
he thinks is solution of the labor
shortage here.
Mr.. Harris, VINO came from the
northwest part of Texas, and who
knows many of the farmers of that
country, thinks that there are many
of them would like to come to live in
the Imperial Valley.
He says the Texas cotton growers
have experienced a drought for the
last three years and that the crops
have been failures. In some instan-
ceS it required forty acres to make
a bale of cotton. Such failures as they
have had to contend with make those
farmers likely material for handling
the cotton picking in this valley, Mr.
Harris suggested.
in my employ there are several
Texas farmers, whom | brought out
last year. They are worthy farmers,
some men of family" SAID Mr.. Harris,
"and know there are a lot more back
there who would be willing to come
tout here. They ere fully acquainted
with cotton and can do the work re-
quired of them as we'll as anyone.
Aside from that, they are used to get
ting less money for their work. If
some one could be sent back to Texas
to look these men up, lam satisfied
that we could secure enough men to
: harvest our cotton this fall, and these
men would remain here to buy land
+ themselves, or work on shares for
someone who owns the land"
Don Bitter, Farm Bureau agent,
was asked what he thought of the
F ian, and said that such plan was
now under consideration by his bu-
rcau. He said that perhaps man
might be sent to the cotton lands
of Texas to look into the labor quos-
ton. He expressed himself along 4he
lines of Mr. Harris, but did not thinl,
it necessary to advance transportation
10 the pickers. Mr. Bitter also sa;,!
ne thought it fair to consider the Half
! Century Association n the same time
as these men live in he state aid
are as deserving of consideration as
anyone.
1t is thought likel:- that some ac-
tion viii lbe taken IA the near future
looking to the securing of this labor
