On page 2. beginning in line 15. it speaks of quota immigrants who are skilled in agriculture. In the sheep industry there is a great demand for sheep herders. These men come from the Pyrenees Mountains between Spain and France. They are absolutely unskilled except in the taking care of sheep. I wonder if in the interpretation of skilled agriculturists such men could be brought into this country. These men know how to herd sheep. they are experts in the care of sheep from youth. I may state these men get from $100 to $150 a month and found. They go out with a bunch of 1.500 to 2.000 head of sheep and camp equipment and a burro. and stay out for three. four. five. or six months by themselves. and occasionally a man will bring them a little grub.
