Give five pieces of evidence presented in the lesson that shows there was a labor shortage in Texas during WWII.

Texas saw labor shortage during WWII as everyone whether women, children, teenagers or labor unions all were involved in war. The farming saw a great labor shortage.

Explanation:

As war progressed, more and more people were included in war. Farmers were supposed to increase their production of vegetables. They lacked people to support them in farming. At this time, farmers raised this concern to Congress and they declared not to deploy farmers in military. When this also didn't solve the issue, Congress released war prisoners to be used as labors in farm lands.

The manpower or labor shortage during World War II had opened employment opportunities for those who were earlier not considered for jobs.

Women were asked to join workplace to replace men who were included in military.

Children were asked to extend their help in farm lands along with farmers.

When men were included in military, industries started employing young girls and boys for their work.

Labor unions started giving their support to Congress in War.

1. As the war progressed, farmers were being asked to produce much more food with fewer and fewer workers. More and more young men were being drafted or enlisted in the military. The farm labor shortage quickly became severe, especially for fruit and vegetable producers who relied on migratory hand labor.

2. In the course of the war, 15 million men and women were called up into the military. At the time, the entire workforce consisted of only 73 million people. Over 20 percent of the pre-war workforce were now in the military, not working at their civilian jobs. The nation needed new ways to get the work done.

3. In the factories that meant opportunities for women and for minority populations who had been out of the workforce before. Defense plants were recruiting and offering high salaries, and many of the new workers came from the farms.

4.Farmers and and organizations from across the country complained about labor shortages, and Congress responded by enacting draft deferments for farmers and farm workers who were "necessary to and regularly engaged in an agricultural occupation." But the exodus of workers had already begun.

5. Kelly Holthus (right) was one of the kids who got "put on a tractor when I was about 11 years old" to help meet the labor shortage. He was very proud of being able to contribute to the war effort.

explanation:  

stocks and bonds are the two main classes of assets investors use in their portfolios. stocks offer an ownership stake in a company, while bonds are akin to loans made to a company (a corporate bond) or other organization (like the u.s. treasury). in general, stocks are considered riskier and more volatile than bonds.

savings accounts are just money in a bank- they are insured by the fdic for up to 250,000.   very little risk

the average mutual fund holds hundreds of different securities, which means mutual fund shareholders gain important diversification at a low price. which means if one stock or bond drops it will have very little affect on the mutual fund - again very little risk
