Roosevelt Plan for Unemployed Camps Faces Delays
President Roosevelt weighs delaying the unemployment program as slow progress on expenditure cuts prompts a possible pause until early next week. Camps would be civil, disciplined, no military training, with locations near major projects like reforestation and flood control. A Tennessee Valley development and Muscle Shoals plans are under consideration to move idle workers from cities to new territories. The idea mirrors a prior proposal for citizen military training camps for youths 15 to 21, which passed the Senate budget but was cut in House negotiations. Enlistees would receive food, housing, and wages up to a dollar a day, with part of pay sent to dependents. If a better job arose, discharge could occur to take advantage.
