War Food Administration

No 414523, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: On April 10, 1942, the White House announced an arrangement with Canada which includes provisions for facilitating passage across the international boundary of seasonal agricultural labor and farm machinery. This Department, the Immigration Service, the Customs Service, the Department of State, and the Canadian Government are cooperating to implement those provisions with respect to grain harvesting machinery and labor. In an informal exchange of letters, the two Governments have agreed to such an arrangement for the 1944 season and for each succeeding wartime season. July 7, 1944, has been named as the effective date for applying to the 1944 season the procedure outlined below.
