Let me say for the purpose of the RECORD that during the period Congress was in adjournment I went into the Imperial Valley. where reception centers have been established. I commend the Immigration Service and the Department of Labor for the job they are doing. The fact of the matter is that many of the farm groups. as well as some of those in the Labor Department. have told me that the wages paid were comparable to those paid to other labor. and that the Mexican labor actually cost the farmer a little more than other labor would cost. because of the expense of bringing the labor in. the bond. and so forth. It is not entirely a onesided affair.
