Mr. Speaker. the question is simply one of whether or not the Federal Government should expand and increase the migrant camps. and thus invite new migrants to a State already unfairly burdened with indigents it cannot usefully employ. Certainly the Federal Government should not offer further inducements for more to come. I reaffirm my stand made in 1937 on the policy that the Government should rehabilitate these indigents into their home States. starting immediately reclamation and landconservation programs. Where the people of ones district or ones home county appeal to the Federal Government that no more migrant camps be built there. and by showing definitely that the tax burden is too great for the people at home to carry. and the Federal Government refuses to cooperate with them in taking that tremendous load off their shoulders. I am wondering what Members of Congress would think of such a situation. I wonder how many of you realize the seriousness of this problem in the congressional districts which are so affected.
