The Rev. Albert S. I.ayton, farm labor assistant, said this week that if farmers who have surplus help and those who need help would report to him immediately, he might be able to arrange full-time work for some men on two or more farms or could offer a few- full-time jobs cn other farms. / He added that if workers part-time farm work wish to transfer to defense jobs in order to support their families there are no grounds for refusing approval of statements of availability unless his office knows of fairly steady farm work in county. Layton pointed out that some farmers have been forced to put their help on part-time due to the severe drought and short crops, while others are unable to obtain help.
