This wetback and Mexican labor problem is not new. it has been with us for many years. since long before World War II. Because of the fact that in World War II our young men moved to the service. the factories. and the metropolitan areas. a shortage of agricultural labor developed and the proposal was made that we set up machinery for bringing in groups of agricultural workers from the neighboring Republic of Mexico to help solve the problem. Representatives of the workers of this country. representatives of the Government. the State Department and the Labor Department and the Immigration Service. and representatives of the growers associations sat together with members of like organizations of Mexico. and a program was worked up and the people were brought in.
