that Walcott is running the sFccw

THE whole system of migratory
farm labor in the United States
is so chaotic and unsystematic
that a balance of supply and de-
mand is rare and unusual" This
Indictment. made by Warden Full
Ter, former executive secretary of
the Presidents Commission on Mi
gratory Labor, is one of the basic
conclusions of the 25-cent PAM
phlet No Work Today! published
today by the Public Affairs Com
mittee, % E. 38th ST., New York.
From the standpoint of more
than a million migrants about
half citizen families, and half
alien Majestic hazard is
double one, Mr.. Fuller reports:
Cd There is the hazard of whether
there will be a crop to work. (2)
There is always doubt whether
the migrant will get the work he
expects even if there is a good
crop.
Virtually no one was found to
be satisfied with the present sys-
tenn. In the view of the migra-
tory worker, il is hazardous and
unsatisfactory way to make a liv-
ing. In the view of the farm en-
ployer, citizen migratory workers
are an uncertain and irresponsible
labor supply. From the viewpoint
of local health officials, influxes
of migrants aggravate health
problems and overtax community
health facilities"
The employment of migrants
occurs chiefly, mr.. Fuller OBJ
serves" in large farm areas or IN
areas that specialize in growing
certain crops such as sugar beets
or cotton. The low wages paid
migratory workers amount, in ef-
feet, to a subsidy to the kinds Of
agriculture that use large guam
g titles of labor for short periods.
Although the migrants are
among the As1ion's least-privileg-
ed citizens, 1.-The great wave OF
national social progress has
brought them little or nothing.
Mr.. Fuller finds. For others have
come farm price supports, mini
mum wages, protection Of the
right to organize, government
housing unemployment in
surance, old-age and survivors
insurance and the like T. Mi
gratory birds in flight are provid-
ed rest Ravens at taxpayers ex-
pense All except farm

The protection Of minimum

all help. solve the basic income

Mr.. Ali Goes to Cortland

When the shouting and the tumult of
United Nations debate and of ~multipowered
conferences have died, it may be found that
more international good will was crystallized in
Cortland, New York, last Monday than else
where in this troubled land.
For Monday was Pakistan Day in Cortland
and the guest of honor was a Washington resi-
dent, Pakistan's Ambassador, Amjad Ali. All
the schools and business places closed down at
noon and an estimated 10000 residents of tine
upstate New York community turned out for a
big parade of welcome. The Ambassador was at
his informal best, wearing a turban made OF
six yards of white and gold muslin, making
speeches, shaking hands and having a fine
time.
The event was a public relations mans
dream-to have an American small town become
really interested in a young but faraway coun-
try. Cortland picked up the challenge and
it in a big way. The next chapter
will be an exchange of mayors between Cortland
and Peshawar, picturesque northwest frontier
city at the foot of the Khyber Pass, and then
a swapping of students between Cortland State
Teachers College and PeShawar University.
So it is that out of all this homely little
demonstration of small-town hospitality may
come an enduring consciousness of interna-
tionalism at its best, an i%nquiring interest and
an understanding of the mutual concerns of
people half a world apart.

Gives Benson the Business

Is farming q business? A farmer
grows things, and it is up to the farmer
to sell what he produces at a price
that will net him a profit. That is
business. Now just where and why
does the Government come into this
business deal between the farmer and
the ultimate consumer?
I want Mr.. Benson to tell me why
he has to guarantee the farmer a Spe-
ci1c price for his product, and why
the Secretary of Commerce does not
have to guarantee the haberdasher a
specific price for his suit Of clothes?
I also want to know what store Of
knowledge our President dipped into
to have the audacity to say:
Further, all of us know that the
price support principle must be part
of any future farm program"
I, for one-and there are millions
like NEEDN'T know it. A principle
that makes me pay 80 cents a pound
for butter when there is a plethora Of
butter, is not a good principle.
I want Mr.. Benson to tell me what
would happen if all subsidies were
abolished, and please don't give me any
generalities such as there would be
chaos" "the bottom would just drop
out Of everything" 'the confusion
would be S o great as to 80, )" etc. etc.

ure to present this picture of the other
sort.
Here we have good parents, patiently
and skillfully coping with an average
human child, as Kinsey might say.
They know their own, and know just
how to handle her.
The result, in this case, was that Peg
worked hard all day, after her initial
pout, and did a very creditable job.
She had fun doing 1t. too.
Talk it over with your child" This
is n of the tenets of modern child
bringing up.
Here was a very good example Of it,
done with skill, patience and a large
amount of love. No threats, no lee
turing, just plain talking, so that in the
end everything was smoothed over.
A small friend, not included in the
dialog, was a willing partner, and be-
tween the two of them they managed
to cut, rake and clean up, and pile up
afterward.
Both children must be given credit
for good material for Daddy and Nom
ME to work with; the little ones re-
sponded well. and got a good lesson in
sticktoitiveneSs.
There was no quoting Of proverbs,
scripture or anything else, just plain
statements of what seemed to be facts.
Those who e~avesdropped on this simple
example of how to handle children got
many a smile out of it, and went away
convinced that all is not lost in the
weller of delinquents, vandals and just
plain kids.
Patience and firmness are great al
lies of loving kindness. When the
three are joined, they make a mighty
team, not only for children, but for
their elders. too.

Slow Drivers on Fast Rouds

Traffic officials, automobile clubs,
insurance companies, and others con-
tinually stress the part speed (high
speed plays in highway accidents.
They are correct; but they have been
inclined to ignore the deadly COM
panion of high speed, i.e., low speed,
which legally remains unnoticed in a
considerable number of our States.
Any motorist with a fair amount
of road sense" scarcely can be oblivious
to what occurs when a low speed driver
is struggling along around Is to 80
miles per hour on a highway where
speeds around as to so miles per hour
prevail. This menace of the highways
forces other drivers to follow him
frequently for miles-when approach
ing vehicles OF curves provide few OPP
portunities to pass.
A considerable number of fatal head
on collisions are attributable to these
sluggish highway misf1tS, who cause
much of that unnecessary bumper-to-
bumper congestion and retardation of
the flow of traffic. The numerous major
collisions or near collisions resulting
from this condition practically are in
evitable in this era of vehicular trans
portation, when a motoriSt, in order
to get ahead, is compelled to pass a
number of closely spaced vehicles be-
fore he can pass the lead car respon-
sible for the traffic snarl.
Ironically, the slow driver generally
escapes both being involved in an acct
dent and any resulting liability. But
he is, in effect, just as responsible for
accidents as is a high speed driver who
is always singled out for blame. Since
maximum speed laws slow down most
of the fast drivers, it logically follows
that specified minimum speed laws
