Notes
Several Filipino workers in a rice warehouse: Machinery for filling sacks of rice, and stacks of filled rice sacks stored ready for shipment. Full caption continues: "The price the little rice grower gets for his palay - the Filipino name for it, is low. While the bags pile up in the warehouse of Luzon, the planter buys his other necessities with the cash the crop has brought him."
