Mr. Chairman. I come from a district ivhere a number of growers. principally in apples. sugarbeets. and pickles. use migrant labor. I have discussed this program with some of them at great length. In my district they use bracero labor for seasonal work only. as the program originally intended. and not year round. Nor do they use bracero labor to operate farm machinery. The growers in my district believe they need Public Law 78 labor and want to use it for the purposes for which the bill was originally enacted. that is. to supplement the domestic labor force at peak seasons.
