Scholes. western field representative. Division of Home Missions of the National Council of Churches. gave the following testimony before the House Subcommittee on Equipment. Supplies. and Manpower: Some time ago. our staff made an informal study of the needs of migrant workers. We always ask one question. which is Important to us. and it is: "What can we best do to help?" We thought that the answer might come that: "You could encourage the school system to help our children with their studies." or something of this nature. Instead. almost invariably high on the list of what we could do was to help them get some of the Jobs back that the braceros had taken from them.
