May Not Have Ia
Mexicans Here
Next Year
Farm labor problem
now being studied for
coming crop seasons

|. A study of the farm labor stu
alton for next year was the prin-
cipal topic of discussion at a two
day meeting of the district Farm
Labor board in Spokane this week.
County Agent Walter Click and
emergency farm labor supervisor
G. E. Ridley were in attendance
from this area. State department
officials conducted the meetings.
1.-The overall picture, MIR. Click
reported was good, although there
are many factors which could
change the situation between now
and the first spring need for out
side help. The principal worry
now facing officials is whether or
not it will be possible to secure
Mexican nationals another year,
which of course will be the main
factor in whether or not the Ken
newick labor camp will be oper-
ated again. &.
Weather conditions, unusually
favorable this year, will also be
considerable factor in the years
needs.
In case the Mexicans will not
be available, Click reports, every
possible use of other sources must
be made. This may include pris-
oners Of war and most certainly
more and better work from the
school children.
Also a course of training for
workers is included in the pro-
gram for next years operations.
A local meeting of growers and
others interested is planned for
January here.

County Over;
City Short Of
Bond Quota

While Benton county's quota in
the Sixth War Loan drive was
more than met, due to the large
amounts obtained from the nearby
project of war workers, the local
quota is only about three-fourths
up to the mark, according to d.
M. Deeter, assistant chairman.
Of this amount, the greatest
slump came in the sale of the
sc" bonds, Deeter stated. The
quota for Kennewick and vicinity
was 100000, including the d
bonds, and all sales made until
the first of the year will be
credited toward the local quota.
