SENATE SUBCOMMITTEE HEARINGS

Doctors

hit

migrants'

conditions

WASHINGTON UP) - A panel
of doctors told investigating
senators yesterday that migrant
farm workers live under appal-
ling health conditions. And one
said "a deliberate, cruelly con-
trived and highly effective sys-
tem has been devised to extract
the maximum work from other
human beings for the cheapest
possible price."
Dr. Robert M. Wheeler of
Charlotte, N.C., made this as-
sessment as he and other phy-
sicians testified before the Sen-
ate migratory labor subcommit-
tee on findings of a 25-m a n
medical team about conditions
in Texas, Florida and Michigan.
They said children of migrant
farm workers often are grossly
malnourished, deaf or deformed
n.

by disease -.
chance for any

a n d without a
future in our so-

ciety.
In addition, Wheeler told the
subcommittee, the very poor
farmworkers are subject to dis-
eases wiped out elsewhere in the
land. In South Texas, he said,
a polio epidemic took three lives
this spring. Deafness from un-
treated ear diseases, he testified,
is common, and so is crippling
from rickets, a childhood afflic-
tion rare elsewhere.
They reported t h at a baby
with meningitis d i e d after a
hospital twice refused emergen-
cy care because the farmworker
father couldn't pay in advance.
They told of the worker's own
reluctance to seek out doctors
except in a crisis because they
did not have $10 for an office
call and had heard their chil-
dren would be held hostage if
they didn't pay up immediately.
And one doctor said a grower
personally threatened him for
interfering with his" migrants.

studies were underwritten by
the Field Foundation, includes
the same ones who m ad e a
study of hunger among blacks
in Mississippi in 1967 and they
said yesterday conditions they
found in the migrants' camps
matched anything they saw in
the earlier investigation.
Wheeler said Florida and
Texas are different from t h e
rest of the rural South in that
many growers in those states
will depend on men, not ma-
chines, to gather their valuable
fruit and vegetable crops.
The federal, state and local
governments cooperate with the
grower in isolating the migrant
from the rest of society, "main-
taining him at the lowest level,
justic

of subsistence which he will tol-
erate - t h e n making certain
that he has no means of escape
from a system that holds him
in virtual peonage," Wheeler
said.
The nation h a s knowr full
well about the shameful exploi-
tation of .migrant farmworkers,
Wheeler said, from John Stein-
beck's decades-old novel "Grapes
of Wrath" to an NBC documen-
tary on migrants last week.
"What does it take to make
us care about our children?" he
asked. "The picture we see is
one of a society thriving on
greed, cruelty, alienation and
/ fear."
The doctors' team examined

and treated 1,400 people in Hid-
algo and Starr Counties in Tex-
as during four days in March.
They had intended only to doc-
ument the health of 50 migrant
families, mostly Mexican Amer-
ican.
Dr. Harry S. Limpscomb told
of abundant serious problems
such as intestinal ills compli-
cated by contaminated drinking
water; rickets, goiter; gross
caloric malnutrition; d e n t a1
problems in every person rang-
ing from raw and swollen gums
to unfilled cavities, and an
alarming number of ear diseas-
es leading to undetected deaf-
ness.

WASHINGTON (/P) - The
Justice Department filed suit
yesterday to halt alleged j o b
discrimination against women
for the first time since the prac-
tice was outlawed f i v e years
ago.
"If anybody thinks we don't
mean business on sex, then
they're mistaken," said a de-
partment civil rights lawyer
following filing of the court ac-
tion under the Civil Rights Act
of 1964.

Shop Jacobson's Mon. 'Til 9:00 p.m. Tues. thru Fri. 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

The suit, filed in U.S. dis-
trict court in Toledo, Ohio, ac-
cuses Libbey-Owens-Ford Co.,
Inc., of hiring women in only
one of its f i v e Toledo glass-
manufacturing plants, assigning
them to less desirable and low-
er-paid jobs than men employ-
es and firing them first when
work is cut back.
Also named in the suit was
the United Glass and Ceramic
Workers of North America,
AFL-CIO, and its local No. 9.
e The department said Libbey-
Owens-Ford and the union ne-
gotiated labor contracts t h a t
discriminates against women
workers.
The department sought court
orders banning further discrim-
ination and requiring the com-
pany to make compensation to
women who suffered economic
losses as a result of past dis-
crimination.
The case, first to be prose-
cuted by the Justice Department
since the Civil Rights Act took
effect five years ago, originated
with a complaint filed before
the Equal Employment Oppor-
tunity Commission by female
employes of Libbey - Owens-

Ford. Neither the department
nor t h e EEOC would disclose
the names of the workers.
A company spokesman said it
would have no comment until
officially notified of the filing
of the suit.
A union spokesman expressed
surprise at the action, saying
"We have been meeting with
federalrattorneys investigating
the charges and they didn't in-
dicate they were ready to go to
court."
The suit said Libbey-Owens-
Ford agreed Feb. 4 to drop its
policy of classifying jobs as
male-only positions. But the ef-
fects of such discrimination
have continued and "deprive or
tend to deprive women of em-
ployment opportunities or ad-
versely affect their stat us as
employes because of their sex."
Former 'U'
professor
dies at 81
Paul A. Leidy, former profes-
sor emeritus of law died yester-
day morning in the St. Joseph
Mercy Hospital. He was 81.
Survivors include his wife; a

Jr., of Ann Arbor; a son, John
B., of Ann Arbor; and eight
grandchildren. Cremation has
been made and a memorial ser-
vice will be held later. Memorial

Leidy, a University alumnus,
joined the faculty as professor

ditional Law School duties as
placement director. He retired
in 1952 after 25 years of service
to the Law School and the Uni-
versity.
