Mr. President. the March 15 issue of Presbyterian Life carried a most interesting article on the situation of the migrant farm laborers in the United States. In his informative and judicious article. Mr. Sissel points out quite accurately that the farmer has problems as well as the migrants. and that one of the forces working to help the migrant is "the active conscience of an increasing number of farm employers." However. the farmer cannot improve the housing and living conditions of his workers entirely unaided. Help such as proposed in the legislation before the Subcommittee on Migratory Labor is needed by both the farmer and the worker. Mr. Sissel has given a carefully drawn and balanced picture of the situation of our migrant farmworkers. a group often voiceless and voteless. Because I think my colleagues will find this article of great interest. I ask unanimous consent that it be printed in the body of the RECORD.
