labor commissioners of five south
ern states and officials of federal
agencies adopted a IL . point pro-
gram aimed at co-ordinating hous-
ing and relief efforts and checking
blind migrations" of labor in
search of mythical employment.
At the top Of its program, the
conference placed the exchange of
advance job inventories to provide
information on prospective employ
ment opportunities. The group also
suggested federal regulation of in
terstate activities of public en-
ployment agencies, licensing Of pri-
vate agencies, and IAN immediate
and realistic program. to
house the workers attracted to the
federal defense projects.
The conference dealt especially
with the problems of migrant farm
workers, who follow the harvests
ana Nv IN Squalor except where
government migrant labor camps
have been established. The group
also noted, however:
1.-The development of the mill
tary establishment and defense in.
dustries have attracted many thou
sands of workers and their fami-
lies without aden1ate proyic;op he
ing made for housing and health
protection. The committee, believ-
ing that the migration of workers
is not a problem concerning one
state but is interstate in character
and hence a national responsible
ty, recommends that in every
area in which there is a defense
project there be provided adequate
health care through establishment
of a full-time accredited local
health departnent'' <
