FARM WORKERS
WACESDECLINE
Lowest Level in "a Years
Reached; Demand Half
of Normal"

Farm wages have fallen to the
lowest point in 30 years. The pres
ent range Of wages is from 40
cents a day in South Carolina, in
the heart of the Black Belt, to
$1.75 in Rhode Island, according to
the Department. Of Agriculture. In
parts of the North Central states
agricultural workers are fortunate
if they get job with room and
board a. the only wages.
The general level of wages on
Jan. /, as shown by the Depart
ment's index, was % per cent be-
low the level Of 1914. From oc-
tober 1, 1882 to January /, 1888
the fall of agricultural wages was
IL per cent. This is sharper than
the usual decline during these
months which amounts to 81 per
cent.
JOBS HALF OF NORMAL
The Department of Agriculture
attributes "the decline since Oct
/ to increased supply of farm
labor and decreased demand. "This
means that wages are being driven
down by the fact that thousands
and tens Of thousands Of workers
are looking for jobs on the farms
and that the number of Jobs il
constantly decreasing. The supply
of workers looking for jobs or
farms was one fourth greater or
January 1, than normal" while
the number of jobs available fol-
them was just about half Of "nor
NAL" A quarter more men for {
half fewer jobs.
Middle farmers who used to hir'
farm workers cannot do so now
because of the decline in the price
Of farm products. The great farm
corporations who employ thou
sands Of workers are speeding
them to keep up their profits.

We told them of the Farmers

We held another meeting in VIII

always put property rights ahead
of human rights. 1t is usually a
way to legally steal or take a

It is also to be remembered the

Since in most Of the cases coming

impossible and unreasonable to
form such a board Of arbitration.

Dear Sir:
We the farmers and workers
delegates assembled at this con-
ference representing thousands of

elected Grievance Committees, by
hand picking committees of your
own friends and supporters.
We will united struggle against
this discrimination policy and by
our organized mass activity force
the recognition immediately Of the
Workers and Farmers Grievance
Committees.
In case our Grievance Commit
tees are not recognized we will be
compelled to resort to such meas
ures which will bring recognition
