Mr. President. it has been my privilege to be named chairman of the subcommittee investigating the obvious injustice perpetrated on half a million American migratory farm laborers in this country. the socalled forgotten citizens. Members of the subcommittee will soon see for themselves the distressing conditions under which these migrants battle for survival. Secretary Mitchell has well described them "as lonely wanderers on the face of our land. living testimonial to the neglect that is possible in a wealthy society." Although much work lies ahead for all of us before we can provide the bare fundamentals of social justice to which every human being is entitled. the stirring of interest in this subject from many levels has been indeed heartening to see. In this connection.
