Series 4. Harvesting the sugar beets 1942

Physical Description: 83 prints and negatives

Scope and Content Note

The sugar beet harvest in 1942 was a bumper crop with no workers to harvest it because of World War II. California farmers asked the United States government to invite Mexico to send Mexican workers to California to help harvest the estimated 8 million hundred-pound bags of sugar beets. Three thousand workers were used to harvest the crop, topping and harvesting the sugar beets.
