Fearing the loss of his crop. Mr. Rosendahl tried everything he could to recruit workers. He took out radio and newspaper ads. He put signs along the highways. and called the employment development department. But on the best day. he was only able to get 70 workers out of the 300 needed. And many of these 70 were illegal aliens. On the surface. it would appear that Mr. Rosendahl should have been able to get the help he needed. At the time. there were 25.000 persons unemployed in this county. This figure represents 8.6 percent of the total work force. and does not include the elderly. disabled. sick. and the hardcore unemployed.
