Description: Mexican nationals, extensively employed as workers in the southwestern and West Coast states, are shown working on railroads and farms, and in orchards. Friendly relationships between the Mexicans and their employers are indicated. The men go to a nearby town on their time off, and attend a festival on Mexico's Independence Day. When their help is no longer needed in the United States at the end of World War II, they go home, heavily loaded with baggage and boxes of American products.
