A spectacular population increase has accompanied the west coast’s industrial revolution. The Portland metropolitan area showed a 31 per cent increase in population since 1940; the Seattle area shows an increase in population for the same period of 200,000; and an estimated 1,500,000 people have entered California since 1940. Since most industrial activity on the west coast is confined to the manufacture of aircraft and the construction of ships, sharp curtailment of employment is threatened in the post-war period. With a population increase of 14 per cent, California, for example, faces the problem of shifting 1,500,000 workers from war activities to civilian jobs after the war. . . .
The typical white defense migrant is a young man, twenty-five years of age or younger, married, from a small town or rural area in the Pacific Northwest, anxious to settle in the area, and primarily interested in industrial employment in the post-war period. A study made recently in the Kaiser yards in Portland indicates that only 23.6 per cent of the migrants expressed a definite intention to leave after the war; that only a very few have maintained economic ties elsewhere or have jobs to which they might return; that considerable numbers have purchased property in the area; that a majority have their families with them; and that 86 per cent must find new employment immediately after their present employment terminates.
Answer:
When Isabel wakes up, she realizes to her horror that she's slept late—and Ruth is nowhere to be found. When she confronts Becky about Ruth's whereabouts, Becky dances around the question until Isabel finally demands an answer. It is as she fears: Madam sold Ruth the night before and has sent her to the West Indies. Becky's theory is that the milk had a sedative mixed in with it to knock Isabel out and keep her from interfering. Ugh.
Isabel confronts Madam about the news. In her anger, Madam grabs a painting off the wall and smashes it over Isabel's head, so Isabel runs out of the house and into the street, not caring about how badly it looks to be a slave running down the street as Madam Lockton chases you.
In her mind, there's only one clear solution to all this: Go to Colonel Regan and demand that he make good on his promise. She goes to his headquarters and shouts the ad astra code until someone lets her in and takes her to the Colonel. Before she even gets a chance to open her mouth, though, Madam barges in and demands to know what's going on.
Madam berates Isabel to Regan for her disobedience, while Isabel begs him to help her. Regan's sentries, though, pressure him against keeping his promise. He tells Isabel that his hands are tied—by law, he can't interfere with Madam's property (that's Isabel, in case you forgot).
In one last attempt at freedom, Isabel runs for an open window and almost makes it out before being pulled back in.
