I agree with the gentleman from Texas. Thousands of refugees are pouring into California from the Dust Bowl. A recent check disclosed that of the thousands crossing the California border. the largest number were coming from the droughtstricken Great Plains. These people arrive hungry. poorly clad. and unhoused. They are desperate for employment. Frequently they displace local labor. reducing wages and increasing hours. The result is heavier burdens on relief and increased relief rolls. It has placed a vexatious. added burden on the backs of the California taxpayer and disastrous competition to the workers seeking jobs. I am opposed to that brand of economy that would save Government money by taking it out of the halffed. halfclothed. and halfhoused unemployed.
