DEFENSE PROGRAM WILL CREATE
MORE POVERTY, HOUSE Warned

"a body OF 7tateless people is ap-
pearing," it noted, existing in limbo
of lost settlement rights and forced to
migrate in search of elusive employ.
ment opportunities.
1.-The committee has observed that
the great majority of these people
are above the average III initiative,
younger on the average than the gen
eral resident population, and in search
of job and not a hand-out."
The committees report, summarize
ing % days of hearings during which
371 witnesses were heard, suggested
that federal action should be taken
to forestall as far as possible unnec-
essary migration, to give aid to those
people now on the road, and to help
migrants get a new start or at least
stop their wanderings.
Reference was made to a bill pre-
viously introduced by the committee
chairman, Rep. John II. Tolan 3D.,
Calif.), which provides for strict con-
troll of labor contractors and tighten
ing up of state and federal employ
ment services.
Included with the report was tech
nical supplement outlining the extent
of migration and destitution caused
by the last war and summarizing con-
ditions thus far created by the present
defense program.

| WASHINGTON - Increasing
numbers of migrant workers are likely
| to be created by the defense program
unless action is taken by the federal
government, the house was told April
| 3 by its special committee investigat-
ing interstate migration of workers.
1.-THE defense program" the COM
mittee said in it's report, "is expand
ing the horizon of employment op-
portunity for these people, both rural
and urban jewellers, and providing
jobs for those who are taking to the
road in search of work
when an economy geared to arma-
'ment production reverts to the pace
of consumer goods production, the
tide of migration will flow back to-
ward the areas where such production
is located or the defense workers will
find themselves a stranded population
or be forced once more TO move back
to the areas of declining opportunity
from which defense called them.
''Destitution and the prevention OF
it will certainly again become pri-
mary problem in this country as soon
as the emergency expansion slack
ems"
The committee emphasized in it's
report the fact that as many industrial
workers as agricultural workers are
on the road in search Of job.

CROP OUTLOOK
GOOD IN STATE
SAYS REPORT

Better than seasonal progress OF
farm field work was reported through.
out the state for the week lending
April 9Th. Temperatures were quite
favorable for growth in the western
half but freezing nights slowed growth
in the eastern portion. The week
brought 0.28 inch of moisture that was
fairly we'll distributed with very heavy
showers in some eastern localities.
Winter wheat continues to be re-
ported in good to excellent condition
with early spring growth disclosing
only small damage by winter killing
but some losses from weeds and other
causes Weeds were bad enough to
cause some replanting in Gallatin
county and were likewise reported
from Teton and Saltwater counties.
Otherwise, the crop condition is good
and growth to date has been mostly
satisfactory.
The season for planting and seeding
as we'll as for growth continues to be
ahead of normal Considerable garden
planting was done during the week
in the western-half while seeding of
cereals and some sugar beets is gain
ing Roadway east of the mountains.
Growth of grass has been sufficient
to furnish feed in western Montana
and pastures and ranges are greening
up in good shape east of the Divide
Livestock is quite generally in very
good condition, with weather to date
very favorable for saving young live
stock, including ca.y.s. pigs, and early
lambs. Range lanbing is now getting
underway, with prospects for eve
pasture showing Improvement gener-
ally due to recent rains. There is
plenty of feed for livestock but some
reservoirs have gone dry.
Mountain snowfall has been decid-
eddy below normal which is causing
some apprehension in certain irrigated
areas, dependent upon small stream
flow
