Although $237,000 has been spent to date on Filipino fares, both Immigration officials and California Labor regard the repatriation program as a flop. Remaining in the U. S. are 120,000 low-paid Filipino farm workers, houseboys, janitors, cooks. Half are in California, 97% are bachelors about 30 years old. "The boys," explained Dr. Hilario C.

It planned to make carnivals respectable or break them. This was clever salesmanship on the part of A.F.A. Bulletins sent to State and county fair officials, mayors, sheriffs, Rotary, Kiwanis, etc., made it quite clear that if a carnival could not display A.F.A. and A.F. of L. insignia it was because "it permits gambling, indecency, immorality . . . or is unfair to organized labor." Consequently, instead of resisting unionization, carnivaleers were anxious to get the good-conduct badge that A.F.A...
