Abstract

The article reports on the outcome of the enactment of Public Law 229, which is designed to facilitate the importation of foreign workers to the U.S. The law aims to restrict labor piracy in the fields. In March 1944, foreign workers provoked the police into counteraction after forcing to enter Mexico City, where registration for enlistment and transportation to the U.S. was being arranged. Mexican President Avila Camacho, in response, issued a proclamation or easement absolving Mexican agrarians in the U.S. from farming their land grants.
