JORDAN SAYS CHINESE
LABOR PLAN POPULAR

SEATTLE. Wash, Nov. 26.-(By
United Press) )-Strong sentiment ex-
lists in the west In favor of letting
!. down the bars to Chinese coolie labor,
according to Frank c. Jordan, Cali
fornia secretary of state, who is here
1 today.
Il Jordan Is making tour of western
cities to sound out the feeling re-
garding the proposal, which was re-
Gently instituted in California. that the
! Chinese exclusion act be amended so
that Chinese coolies can be admitted
and allowed to work on the farms of
the west.
The California secretary of state
told the United Press that he has dis
covered "only negligible" opposition
to the plan.
To Lower Cests.
The object of the movement is to
lower the cost of living, for unless
coolie labor is secured, Jordan de-
clares, there will be shortage of
food production in the west, and re-
sultant higher prices.
The proposed Chinese coolie labor
er. who would be used in domestic SER
vice, as we'll as work on the farm.
would be under government control.
according to Jordan's plan. His
scheme calls for the 11western states
to memorialize congress to allow the
entry of selected Chinese laborers.
For Farm Labor.
There is a problem confronting
the farmers" said Jordan. and that
is labor. In California, we have very
| little white labor on the farms the
work being performed by Hindoos.
Mexicans and Japanese. American
born boys do not want to work on the
farms. Those who left farms and
went into the army have had taste
of city lfe and have not returned to
the farms. This means reduced pro-
ductiDn of food. There are 75,000,0OO
acres n the west which could be cul-
tivatcd ana made to produce food.
NatiNe-boru Hbor is not available. My
plan is to bring over Chinese. II the
Chinese car be put to work on the
farms, production will be increased.
even more than doubled. 1t is impera-
tive that some form of labor be found
for the farms, and the only source of
supply / can find is China.
1.-The people who have farms and
who have had trouble getting needed
help are quite willing TO see Chinese
on the job. Business men take the
same viewpoint, and SO far as organ
lied labor is concerned l cannot see
any reason why it has cause for OBJ
lection, as increased food production
would help that element In any
event, the Chinese would not be COM
ing into competition with organized
labor"
