The workers are those who be-thov be-thov have enouerh knowledee of some tchnlcal- craft or trade to. find a place in defense industries. indus-tries. -, Dust Bowl Still Leads Curiously, the great . bulk of them come from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, and other states - of the dust bowl which furnished most of the agricultural "Oakies" and "Arkies" of the 1937 migration. migra-tion. So great is the present influx, . that state officials admit they have not , been . able to keep accurate figures, " ' ' Border stations have counted 85,452 persons "in need of manual employment" who drove automo biles into the state during the first nine months of the year. They have however, no check on those that have come by other means of transportation. For the moment, state authori ties are not worrying much about the influx, as the great bulk of tne workers seem to get jobs, but they are worrying about what will happen hap-pen when the emergency ends, and It's a Good Time To Build!

Idle Relief Still High During the latter part of the 1939-41 biennium the state was still paying $77,000,000 annual unemployment un-employment relief partly a hangover hang-over from the 1937 agricultural migration. California still has an unemployment unem-ployment problem of its own, and there are many skilled workers residing in the state who still are Idle. Another problem, state officials point out, is that with the speeding speed-ing up of the national defense industries, in-dustries, new machinery is being constantly introduced that reduces the number of jobs, great as this may be at present. On the brighter side of the ledger, however, no secret is made of the fact that the state is prospering pros-pering by the defense program.
