Labor “Runners”
UUh'ested Mmday
Wallace Berry Area
Raleigh — Throe labor “runn
er*" wore arrasted at'tor midnite
Monday morning in the Wallace
atrawberrj are* ou ckari^s of re
cruiting pickers without license
for employment outside the State.
Evidence has been secured in
t«veral other ea^es in whic^ out
side “runners” have been en
gaged in soliciting North Oarolina
labor, particularly strawWrry
pickers, it is revealed by C. W.
Pittman, Farm Placement Super
visor, op>rating under the Employ
ment Service Division of the
State UCC. .
North Carolina, by statute, pro
hibits the roliciting of labor for
work outside the State, unless it
is done through the regularly es
tablished governmental agency,
the Employment Service, by m«ans
of its clearance syystem. The
State law requires'that an out of,
state emplotyer, even though re
cruiting labor for bia own use,
shall pay a license fee of $500
for each county in which recruit
ing is done, while municipalitiea
may ako charge a license fee.
I^early all states have similar
statutes against recruiting labor
within their borders, by means of
a prohibitive license fee for such
activity, Mr. Pittman points out-
Strawberry growers in the Wal
lace &nd Chadbourn areas have
found out in the last week or two
that when the man of the house
is drawing good wages in camp
and .fort constructive %vork, then
the ^'ife and children will not
pick .strawberries fbr pa.t. Few
of the growers have enough pick
ers and some have very few. The
result is that berries are over
ripe or are rotting in many fields.
The maturity of the Virgi
crop has added « slron|; eoinpeti-
tive factor to *n already short
labor market. In pflet y«ars, Vir-
aia grovera luTinlj»d
on North Carolina labor for th«ir
harveit. However, tUa jt&Tp not
enough labor is avaikkble for the
North (Daroiina harvest. ''
This scarcity of farm labor is
extensive in Virginia. Maryland,
and New Jersey, *b well as in
North Carolina, and has added
impetus to the undesirable labor
runner activities. Ttieae runners
recruit labor in one *rea afld
“sell’' workers to gro^WJW in an
other area at im) miieh a head
The arrests indicate the decision
of growersi in the strawberry
froAs to stop the unlawful trans
porting of their workers to other
states, Mr. Pittman states.

YOUNG MAN!

HERE IS THE WAY IT IS;
But one in young men graduating: this June will be
one penny richer in money in 1946—seven years after
graduation.

Few of us can profit by the horrble examples of
strong drink-of gambling-of extravagance-or the
grief and ignominy of a dependent old age. “It just
can’t happen to me.” But it can, and the only way to
avoid it is to know that it can and realize that the
chances are against you.
199 out of 200 being not a penny better off, after
seven years of work, is strong odds. Remember, not
a thousand dollars better off-not $500~nor $100-but
NOT A PENNY!
You can beat the odds-be one out of 200 to have
something to show for your spent years. Just one dol
lar a week will show a credit of $364.00~$3 a week will
put you by your first thousand dollars.
Be smarter than those other 199 graduates—save
just a little each week—not for the money alone but
for the stimulation and uplift that comes with the sense
of accomplishment.
