  • Migratory Labor and the Texas Border, 1943-1952
    CREATING FOREIGN POLICY LOCALLY: MIGRATORY LABOR AND THE TEXAS BORDER, 1943-1952 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Robert S. Robinson, B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Peter L. Hahn, Advisor Approved by Robert J. McMahon _________________ Stephanie J. Smith Advisor Graduate Program in History Copyright by Robert Steven Robinson 2007 ABSTRACT Texas participated in the bracero program until 1943, when the Mexican government instituted a labor embargo against the state because of numerous reports of racial discrimination there. For the next several years, Texas officials worked to convince Mexican leaders to rescind the embargo through a wide variety of policies including investigating cases of discrimination, reforming aspects of the state education system, negotiating directly with Mexican officials, enlisting the cooperation of the U.S. federal government, and working to improve the image of Texas among the Mexican public. Texas created new government bureaucracies to coordinate these efforts, including the Inter-Agency Committee, the Council on Human Relations, and most importantly, the Good Neighbor Commission. Collectively, these efforts represent a striking effort by Texas leaders and private citizens to influence the foreign policy between their state, and sometimes their individual community, and the Mexican government. Despite these efforts, the embargo dragged on for years. This dissertation argues that the slow resolution of the labor embargo was due less to the intransigence of the Mexican government than to the inability of Texas leaders to effect the kinds of changes within Texas society, such as passing legislation ii to punish acts of discrimination, which would have convinced the Mexican government that their embargo was no longer necessary.

Proponent The following is an oral history interview with John J. Rhodes, Jr. (JR) conducted by Zona Davis Lorig (ZL) for Historical League, Inc. on November 30, 1992 at Mr. Rhode’s home. Transcripts for website edited by members of Historical League, Inc. Original tapes are in the collection of the Arizona Historical Society Museum Library at Papago Park, Tempe, Arizona. ZL: Mr. Rhodes, first of all, I would like to offer congratulations on your selection as a 1993 Historymaker for the Historical Society. JR: Thank you. I've been interested in the Historical Society for some time and this is a great honor and I appreciate it. ZL: Would you please share when and where you were born and reared. JR: I don't remember it, but I was born September 18, 1916. That's what my mother tells me, at least. I was born in Council Grove, Kansas at our home which was 613 West Main Street and the attending physician was Dr. B. E. Miller. He was my doctor practically all of my early life. My mother didn't have any live-in help at the time, but one of her nieces came up from Emporia and stayed with us during the first few weeks of my life. So she was sort of a nanny. ZL: Women certainly needed that kind of help in those days. JR: Oh they did, and we had a fairly good sized house and I have an older brother and an older sister.
