Excerpt from Preliminary Report on Development of Economic Opportunities in Montana for Migratory and Stranded Families
In recent years, the Pacific Northwest states have become the refuge of families from the drought areas, many of whom through no fault of their own have become destitute. This problem and the resulting gen eral relief burden and drain on local taxpayers, and the extra load on school districts where these people have temporarily settled, make it imperative that something be done to relieve the situation.
