1954: That was Ike’s program to send back the WW II stay-overs. Remember it well and saw it in action since I lived in an agricultural community. Local farmers built camps to house the temporary summer workers so, when they stayed over they were easy to find. Sending temp. farm workers was Mexico’s contribution to the War effort.
