The correct answer is A; There was a need for laborers.
Further Explanation:
During the war, the government had POW camps in the United States. They picked the spots by determining who needed labor since the men were gone to war. They also based their decision on how rural the area was for security purposes. They also wanted the POW's to be in a warm climate so that the costs for construction of the camps would be low.
The prisoners in Oklahoma worked in the fields and were actually paid. The pay was determined by the rank of the prisoner but it was between 10 and 80 cents per day. They were not given the money in cash but in coupons. They could use the coupons to buy themselves items they needed and even beer at the PX-store they had. The prisoners had orchestras, singing groups, and even bands to listen to after they had done their work. They played soccer and played games nightly. It was estimated that at one time there were 22,000 POW's in the state.
