CCC Corps Lists Will Be Reduced
Washington dispatch reports a planned decline in Civilian Conservation Corps enrollment to 208,000 by July 1, 1934, due to improved business conditions. Director Robert Fechner says the reduction will come from smaller new enrollments rather than displacing current members, with a quota of 428,000 for the January 1 quarter and only 10,000 to be enlisted from January to February. Fechner anticipates gains in employment will lower July 1 strength to about 300,000 as discharged workers find jobs.

Utilities Form United Front Against SEC

Holly in Chicago, upheld the Securities and Exchange Commission’s position that registration does not by itself impair utilities’ rights.
