We have an overpopulation in Puerto Rico. What is the matter with bringing in about 25.000 Puerto Ricans to do some of this work? They claim status as American citizens. Or what is the matter with permitting some of these refugees that have been brought into the United States by the millions. you might say. to go out and work in the fields? No. they do not want to do that kind of work. So we are up against a practical situation here. a situation which deals with the reality of furnishing the people of the United States with vital food products.
