Seventh Anniversary Of The CCC Savon successful year# (on March 31. 1940) has been (ho record of the Civilian Conservation Corv*- In March 1933 President Roosevelt Invited to the White House several men, among them the Secretaries of Agriculture. War and Interior, and talked with them about discouraged, Jobless .young men, and waste and destruction of forests and other natural resources of our country. The President wanted to know If it were possible to put one-half million unemployed young to work at once. A plan was quickly worked out and Congress passed the Civilian Consefva-1 tlon Act of March 31, 1933. The purpose was to have 250,000 men employed early that summer. On July 1, 275,000 men had enrolled and were soon on their way to'the various camps which had been built by the War Department. The Department of Iaibor selected the men from State and Federal relief rolls. The Department of Agriculture and Interior furnished the projects. The Act of 1933 stated a twofold purpose?employment of persons on J relief and restoration of the country'e depleted resources. The Act of 1937 j again emphasised conservation and I set up a threefold program: To por?! vide employment, to provide vocation-' al training, and perform useful public works In connection with the conservation and development of the natural resources of the United States. On August 7, 1939, the President approved an Act of Congress, which provides for continuation of the Civilian Conservation Corps to July 1, 1943. The conservation Projects, 150 types in all, include drainage, erosion control, reforestation, park development, and wildlife conservation, which are of interest, and hare added to the welfare and happiness of the people of the Fifth Dlstrlot. The 1939 annual report of the "CCC ' gives for a 6 years' period the follow- ' ing figures for the United States: 1 ... .Total number of men I employed 2,600,000 Trees planted 1,855,000,000 Truck trails and minor $ roads built (miles) .. 106,800 Tofephone lines erected (miles) 73,590 Bridges constructed 42,870 Reduction of Are hazards, over (acres) 2,000,000,000 Building of check dame in gullies, ? t ..-rr. 4,890,000 Fences built, (rods) 17,100,000 Forest Stands improved, (acres), 3,406,000 Construction of impounding and diversion dams, ? 5,575 Development of springs, waterholes, and reservoirs, 18,000 Days spent fighting and preventing fires, 9,375,000,000 At present time there are 1,500 Civilian Conservation Corps camps throughout the United States, and an average enrollment of 300,000 including young men, war veterahs, Indians and ..Territorials. fn addition to the benefits to the Nation provided through the work of the Camps, the men in the camps i have received valuable practical cx| perienee and training which will | greatly influence their future lives. Good care, good food, and vigorous outdoor work develops the young men physically while they learn at first hand conservation practices. They receive, alsb, vocational education which helps to prepare them for Jobs After they leave the camps. I During the past year there were three times as many applications for i enrollment in tha camps as there j were vacancies. An enormous amount | of conservation work has been done, but there remain many years of work which should be done; and now' that we have a real conservation program | in this country, it should be continu| ed. It should be continued, also, for j the reason that it is one of^ the ways I to aid in the problem of unemploy; ment, which is of vital interest at this j time. It has always seemed a pity to me that the young enrollees of the CCC camps have not been given at least one hour a day military training during the term "of their service. This would not only equip them to be ready fpr the defense of our country, jl. necessary, but would also better equip them to return to the ordinary j duties of civilian life, S NOTICE TO DEBTORS AND CREDITORS j* All parties indebted to the estate of J.
