Help Unemployed In Finding Jobs On State’s Farm All unemployment insurance claimants with agricultural experience are to be "encouraged and assisted in finding agricultural employment" during the summer and fall months when the demand for farm workers is at its peak. This instruction was sent today to the managers of all Department of Employment local offices in the state by James G. Bryant, director of the department. "No payment of unemployment insurance should be made to persons who are qualified and able to work in agriculture at a time when agricultural workers are in great demand," Bryant said. "Our primary objective is to find suitable employment for the jobless and to provide qualified applicants for the job openings which employers list with the department. Payment of unemployment insurance is justified only when no suitable work is available for the claimant." The director's directive to the field added: "Agricultural activities are accelerating in almost all areas of the state, and the demand for agricultural workers will increase as these activities progress. It is the responsibility of the department to exert every effort toward meeting the labor requirements of agriculture and, by so doing, provide jobs for the unemployed. Job applicants, including benefit claimants in your offices, are to be screened carefully to determine their availability for agricultural employment. Individuals with agricultural work experience, even though they may also have non-agricultural skills and experience, are to be considered for referral to agricultural employment. "Every care must be taken to insure that every claimant for benefits who has agricultural work experience is encouraged and assisted in taking available form work. Equally, every care must be exercised to insure that no persons are permitted to draw unemployment insurance while actually employed." "Approximately 220,000 seasonal farm workers, including about 25,000 from out-of-state, will be needed to harvest California's vast variety of crops this year," Bryant said. "This figure does not include the additional thousands of year-round farm workers and farmers and their families who participate in the harvests. Meeting this demand for farm workers will not be an easy task, but we feel that it can be accomplished if all unemployed persons with agricultural skills and experience are made available and mobility among farm workers is maintained so that they may be shifted from areas of less demand to areas of greater demand." New Circular Advises Citrus Non-Cultivation More and more citrus ranchers are using the non-cultivation system of soil management each year.

This was apparent in the week of arguments over the labor-management bill, known to you as the Taft-Hartley Act. You've read the results, and the votes; I write about the handling of the bill. the University of California says Dick Puffer, assistant farm advisor. This circular was written by Mr. J. C. Johnston and Mr. Wallace Sullivan, well known to many citrus growers in Orange county. The circular covers all phases of the effects of tillage to citrus soil and gives a complete analysis of the non-cultivation system. An interesting section deals with the equipment used in spraying the weeds in the non-cultivation system. The advantages and disadvantages as well as complete costs of the non-cultivation system are also included in this circular. Anyone desiring to obtain a copy may secure one by writing or calling at the Agricultural Extension Service, 1104 West 8th street, Santa Ana. A lot of bills were introduced on this subject, from direct repeal, or repeal and re-enactment of the Wagner Act, to amendments making T-H stronger. This would be expected, with any controversial subject. All went to the Committee on Education and Labor. The chairman referred them to a sub-committee, which reported a bill back without hearings. Pressure of public opinion prevented the bill coming to the floor with no hearings before the full committee, but they were scanty. No opportunity was offered for the discussion of amendments. This is all in the record. Whether you want the T-H Act repealed, or whether you want it stronger, you will agree this is a poor way to offer important legislation. It means that the Congress is expected to write the bill on the Floor. That is not possible with a bill as technical as a labor-management bill. Read the Act, and you'll know what I mean. There never was a chance for a direct repeal of the T-H Act. I told my labor friends that last December. The majority party never had any such intention. If union leaders want to be fooled, that is their privilege. The Lesinski bill "repealed" the T-H Act, and immediately re-enacted the old Wagner Act, with most of the T-H provisions. The new "Wagner Act," would have corrected some of the criticisms of the old Wagner Act. In order to present the amendments, which the chairman would not listen to in the committee, it was necessary to use a bill introduced by a committee member, who would then have the right of recognition on the Floor. That was the "Wood bill," and all this hokum about a "secret meeting in Room F-18" is just to make it sound like a mystery story. F-18 is a committee room in the Capitol assigned the minority, and the "secret meeting" was a meeting of the Republican Policy Committee, which has 27 members to begin with, and which was created by a resolution written, as you know, by your own Representative, who is a member of it. The committee met with the Republican members of the labor committee, to hear their plans, as it does when any bill comes to the Floor. Calling a meeting, in the most observed committee room, with 27 members of the committee, plus the labor committee members, and a dozen reporters waiting outside, a "secret meeting," ought to give you some idea of the accuracy of a certain key-hole columnist, whom I will not identify, except to say that his initials are D. P.

Center St. Santa Ana Anaheim "The Loc" Orange county's four Red Cross chapters will begin the blood typing service next month. Pending the collection of local supplies, the Red Cross headquarters in Los Angeles will supply blood needed for transfusion and other uses demanded by civilian patients in hospitals, Mrs. Tess Potter, field representative of the Pacific area of Red Cross said. Mrs. Potter was in the county conferring with officials of the various chapters who had agreed previously to organize the civilian blood blank with the first collections to be made from civilians in June. To Attend Red Cross Conclave Mrs. Leo J. Friis, chairman of the Anaheim chapter of the American Red Cross, was elected as a delegate to the national convention in Atlantic City, June 27-30, during the regular board meeting in the city hall headquarters Wednesday of last week. Further plans for the chapter's participation in the national blood program were discussed. Mrs. W. E. Fennell, blood program co-chairman, announced a training conference set for May 23, for all volunteers who will assist with the program. Mrs. Emory Simon, volunteer services chairman, reported that eight volunteers had given 50 hours of work during the month in the various phases of the chapter's work. Home service reported 40 cases open during April 8, of which eight were new and one reopened. Service was given 18 cases. There were 46 office callers and seven home calls were made. Financial assistance was given three servicemen and three veterans and their families. The chapter will share in the expense of sending a delegate from the county to the National Junior Red Cross convention, also to be held June 27-30 in Atlantic City. To Establish Wheat Acreage Allotments Here The Orange County Agricultural Conservation association office is in the midst of gathering acreage data preparatory to establishing wheat acreage allotments. According to Roy L. Hale, county agricultural conservation association chairman, this is a big job and an important one in that the crop data obtained will be used as a starting point for acreage allotment determinations. Hale says that with a 1949 crop of more than a billion bushels in prospect, allotments and marketing quotas for the 1950 wheat crop are a strong possibility. On the basis of present calculations, controls on the 1950 cotton crop will be necessary if the 1949 crop exceeds 13,000,000 bales. Growers of wheat are urged to cooperate with the local agricultural conservation association office in order that the data from which acreage allotments are established will be as complete and accurate as possible.
