Mr. Speaker. the message that the President sent up today has many fine proposals about improving the lot of the migrant farm worker. With all due respect to these proposals. I would like to call attention to the need for improving migrant housing. The New York Times of March 12 tells of 17.000 migrant laborers who have begun to trickle into New York State from the South to work on this years crop of grapes. apples. beans. onions. potatoes. and other produce. According to the Times: Waiting for them on farms that stretch from Buffalo to Albany and south to Suffolk Countyfarms that will sell a billion dollars of products this yearare. in most instances. the same grim shanties and tarpaper shacks that greeted them last year. and the year before and even 20 to 30 years before that. We have in the Department of Agriculture a program that can do something about this condition.
