The sugar company has placed an order with the United States Department of Employment Se- curity for sufficient Navajo Indian labor to cover the labor needs for the expected 1958 sugar beet crop. To further improve the labor picture for 1958, a labor representative from the sugar company will be located on the West side of the Indian Reservation beginning March 28th, to become acquainted with labor department officials, and work out the details --in cooperation with the labor officials relative to the schedule for the movement of labor into the Gunnison Sugar, Inc., District. The sugar comis well pany representative qualified through several years of experience to cope with any situations that may arise in the movement of the labor, and will remain on the job until the labor demand is filled. There are a few things the grower can do to help improve the labor supply as it comes into the district, according to a company spokesman. They are: 1. To compete with other areas using the Navajo laborer, we must begin our labor movement at the same time they do, which means the labor must begin moving into the Gunnison Sugar, Inc., District several days before the beets are ready to thin. Quite a number of the growers have expressed a willingness to take this early labor. Others should follow this example, and help insure an early supply of labor in the district. 2. The grower should adhere closely to the regulations under which he may use the Navajo Indian laborer as follows: the housing, culinary water and anitary facilities for the workers, be acceptable to the U. S.

Good cloje cultivation practices will speed up the laborer and increase his eai mr.g capacity as well as improve the job done and the acreage covered 4. The use of the th.nning machine will improve the work done by the laborer, and increase his capacity better than one third, as well as improve the conditions under which he will be working In this age of machines, we can no longer be thinking and working in the past The future is before us, and how bright Ilia' future may be will depend o the effort the individual is wil. ing to put forth to accomplish his goal. g 1 |
