FARM LABOR CONTROLS

The principal controls on labor
which still remain in effect in-
clude two which have a particular
bearing on -agriculture. One of
them says that men may not leave
employment in agriculture with-
out permission of an employment
office during the present busy
season on the farm. This will be
eliminated after the 1945 crops
are harvested. The tentative date

“Tt has been

or the removal of this control is -

November 15. .

The other control which par-
ticularly applies to. farm people
states that employment offices
may ‘still direct male persons from
16 to 65 years of. age to work at
agriculture, mining and a few
other basic industries. This con-
trol “will; also be relinquished
somewhere about ‘November .15.
