Mexican agricultural labor is imported for use in areas having a shortage of domestic agricultural workers. All costs except for Compliance Activities, are paid from the Farm labor supply revolving fund. Authorization for this program expires December 31, 1964 (75 Stat. 761).

1. Determining Mexican labor requirements.-The agricultural areas needing Mexican workers and the number of workers required are determined. Farm labor reports are developed, controlled, and analyzed to evaluate the Mexican labor program. Technical assistance is provided the States in preparation of these reports.

2. Supplying Mexican labor.-Workers are recruited in Mexico and transported to centers in the United States where employers contract for their use. In 1964, 181,801 were contracted. An estimated 94,300 workers will be contracted in 1965.

This fund covers transportation and other costs directly involved in importing Mexican farmworkers (7 U.S.C. 1461-1468). Public Law 87-345 dated October 3, 1961, extends the authority until December 31, 1964.

Budget program. The program involves the recruitment, selection, and importation of Mexican workers for agricultural work on farms in the continental United States. Mexican workers recruited and selected by the Mexican Government are sent to three migratory stations in Mexico where they are examined for ability to do farmwork, screened for subversive activities, vaccinated, and transported to three reception centers in the United States where they are X-rayed, examined and treated for disease, and contracted to employers. This requires the establishment and operation of reception centers to provide housing, subsistence, and medical care; 182,054 Mexican farmworkers were imported in 1964 and an estimated 94,300 will be imported in 1965 during the

account.

FARM LABOR SUPPLY REVOLVING FUND-Continued period July 1 through November 19, 1964, when contracting will cease.

Financing. The costs of operation of this program are met by fees charged the employer for each worker contracted. These rates are $15 per worker for both contracting and recontracting. The fees provide for the cost of importing workers and for State activities and for the serological testing administered by the Public Health Service.

Operating results and financial conditions.-Revenue from operations is estimated to be approximately $303 thousand less than expenses in 1965 after allowing for a net transfer of $800 thousand to Salaries and expenses, Mexican farm labor program. The program will be liquidated after December 1964.

This fund established by the Employment Security Act of 1960 (74 Stat. 970) makes advances without fiscal year limitation to the employment security administration account in the Unemployment trust fund. The purpose of this fund is to finance the Federal and State administrative costs of the employment security programs on a repayable basis from the beginning of the fiscal year until the Federal unemployment tax receipts become available in February of the same fiscal year.

During 1964, the fourth year of operations, $239.7 million was advanced to the employment security account and $244.2 million was repaid. The difference of $4.5 million was borrowed to pay for 1963 operations and repaid from tax receipts in 1964. In addition, the balance of the fund is used to finance the program in 1965 until the Federal unemployment tax receipts are received in February 1965. During 1965 about $283.7 million of the fund will be used to finance the program until the Federal unemployment tax receipts are received during February 1965.

The fund will be needed until the employment security administration account accumulates a carryover balance of $250 million. Earnings are retained to meet future requirements.

1966 estimate

[ocr errors]

This appropriation covers activities necessary to the administration and enforcement of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 (LMRDĂ); the Welfare and Pension Plans Disclosure Act (WPPDA) as amended, the several provisions of law respecting reemployment rights of veterans, reservists, and National Guardsmen on training duty, and to other functions required to sustain and carry out responsibilities of the Secretary of Labor in labor-management relations matters.

1. Employee-management relations services.-Assistance is provided to unions, employers, groups of employees, and Federal agencies, in meeting long-range, complex, and critical labor problems that arise from major changes in patterns of collective bargaining, technology, and other economic adjustments. Included are arrangements for special studies and analysis, guidance in identifying and utilizing available public and private services, and technical assistance in estimating and planning for economic adjustments as they will affect labor-management relations. Department of Labor interagency activities on labor-management relations matters are coordinated and, as requested, Federal action with regard to particular disputes is coordinated. Inquiries concerning collective bargaining and other aspects of the labor-management relations area are answered. Funds requested in 1966 will 318 permit expansion of such assistance to management, unions, and Federal labor-management relations agencies. The functions vested in the Secretary of Labor under Executive Order 10988 on Federal employee-management relations are performed, including the development and issuance of appropriate interpretations, policies, and procedures. Recommendations for issuance, rescission or amendment of rules and regulations are made to the Administrator. Advice and assistance are provided with respect to Executive Order 10988, the Standards of Conduct, the Code of Fair Labor Practices, and advisory decisions and determinations. Requests of agencies and employee organizations for nominations of arbitrators are processed and appropriate actions are taken. Cooperative advice and assistance are provided the Civil Service Commission in carrying out the latter's responsibilities under Executive Order 10988.

2. Labor-management policy development.-Recommendations are developed for the Administrator and the Secretary with respect to policy for labor-management relations legislation, Executive orders, objectives for Federal programs affecting collective bargaining, and matters before the President's Advisory Committee on LaborManagement Policy. Studies are made of private policies affecting collective bargaining and of the performance of collective bargaining in relation to meeting current and prospective economic and social needs; labor-management relations research functions in the Department of Labor are coordinated and special studies are made of particular situations. Research programs pertaining to the LMRDA and the WPPDA are developed and executed.

3. Administration of reporting and disclosure laws.This activity covers the administration and enforcement of the LMRDA and WPPDA. Approximately 79% of the obligations are devoted to LMRDA activities and approximately 21% to WPPDA activities. Reporting forms and instructions are devised and reports from 8,420 labor organizations, union officers and employees, employers and labor relations consultants, and welfare and pension plan administrators are examined for compliance with the acts (approximately 228,000 reports will be received in 1966), with comprehensive analysis made of selected reports. Reports are made available for dis

closure to the public. Interpretations and regulations pertaining to the acts are developed and promulgated, as are policies and standards for the conduct of elections. Technical assistance to further voluntary compliance, including clinics and workshops (325 in 1966), publications and visual aids, is provided to those affected by the acts. Under the provisions of the acts, complaints alleging violations of the law are investigated and special investigations are conducted in areas where evidence exists of persistent or willful violations. Investigations involving approximately 4,000 alleged violations are estimated in 1966. Supervision is provided for the conduct. of rerun elections held under court order or waiver. The 1966 request reflects management improvements in the processing of LMRDA reports. The programs related to disclosure under the LMRDA, and to technical assistance, investigation and enforcement under both acts are conducted primarily through 24 area offices and 11 resident offices, under the direction of 5 regional offices. 4. Promotion of compliance and assistance to veterans.Assistance is provided veterans, reservists, and National Guardsmen on training duty to secure reinstatement with their preservice employers and other employment advantages to which they may be entitled, based on seniority accrued while in military service. Compliance is advanced by informing employers and labor organizations of their reemployment responsibilities. Specific complaints of ex-servicemen are investigated and if violation of law is apparent, litigation is recommended when voluntary compliance cannot be achieved.
