Whitechurch Forum The Whitechurch Farm Forum met on Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Purdon with an attendance of 29. Three groups dis- cussed the questions re immigrant la- bour quitting farming add the respon- sibility of employers towards immi- grants, Most thought that these im- migrants were not farmers anyway, and used it as a stepping-stone to oth- er positions, as they were disappoint- ed when they found that farm work is comprised of so many lines, stock, machinery, etc., with lower wages and fewer benefits than other occu- pations, All thought that a two-year probation period might discourage this exploitation of the government-fin- anced scheme and farmers would not count on unsatisfactory help, Some thought younger people would prove more adaptable or families of non- communist origin.
