gressman J. P. Richards, Jr., in reply
to a letter from the Camden Chamber
secretary' in the matter of po«t-war
planning and reports of a change in
the army fly^ program in Camden.
Mr. Richards stated that In-so-far as
the government is concerned, post-viur
planning is in a formative stage an
no definite 'program has been out
lined. Committees are working on
post-war plans with tha.^ advice of
leading industrial experts. Regarding
the army flying program in Camden,
the army has a definite program tor
curtailing flying facilities throughout
the country when they are not needed
in the war.
“None of the cities want to lose
these facilitiee,’’ said Mr. Richards,
**but that is something that will have
to happen and tbe program will be
carried out according to the needs of
the service.” Mr.' Richards states
that he has been keeping In touch
with the situation so far as Camden
con- is concerned and so far he has
intimation of any present plan that
would affecl, the local flying school.
The secrethry stated that a Rock
Hill btisinees college sought to estab

the fact that the writer wanted the
City, of Camden or the Chamber of
Commerce to ■ furnish quai;ters and
Iso. pay for propotkmaT' advertise
ments.
The secretary called attention to
the board to the plan of tbe Federal
government to establish Federal ceme
teries for tbe war dead of the present
world conflict In each of the forty-
eight states. The secretary declared
that he had contacted our repreeent-
atlvee in Washington suggesting that
the area or a poition of tbe area over
which the Battle of Camden was
fought would offer a splendid his
toric back ground for a cemetery In
South Carolina. He stated that our
representatives are to preeent this
situation to the attention to the War
department with a request that it be
given careful consideration.
