Migratory worker in auto camp, Yakima Valley, Washington, 1939. Creator: Dorothea Lange
Migratory worker in auto camp. Single man, speaks his mind. " Them WPAs are keeping us from a living. They oughtn t to do it. It ain t fair in no way. The government lays them off (that is in Work Projects Administration - 1939) and they come in because they re locals and take the jobs away from us that never had no forty-four dollars a month. I came out of Pennsylvania, used to be an oil worker. I m getting along in years now and I seen lots of presidents and lots of systems. Voted for Roosevelt both times and I don t know of any president that ever leaned toward the laboring man like him, but this system they ve got here in the fruit is a rotten system the way they work it."
