which would provide for the registration of contractors of migrant agricultural workersH.R. 4516. which would amend the National Labor Relations Act as to make its provisions applicable to agriculture. and H.R. 4904. which would amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to extend the child labor provisions to certain children employed in agriculture. I should also like to recommend that we might go even further than this and that we examine the possibilities of legislating on behalf of the migrant in the areas of unemployment insurance. workmens compensation. and that we look into the possibilities of amending the social security act so as to make its public assistance and oldage and social security benefits applicable to the large body of migrant workers to whom it does not now apply. Now that war has been declared on poverty in general. I would like to see us fight this crucial battle for the migrant worker. Let us not forget him any longer. The 1930s brought a New Deal for many of the American impoverished. Somehow the migrant was excluded from the mainstream of the social legislation that began in the thirties and is still continuing today. We must no longer exclude him. Fact and Comment
