Veterans' Mountain Camp faces water power threat in Adirondacks

A letter outlines efforts by the Veterans' Mountain Camp and American Legion to raise funds for a cabin at the tubercular ex service men camp on Big Tupper Lake. It reports a proposed river district by paper mills and power firms that would flood Paradise Point and threaten isolation vital for veterans' care. Public hearings, led by Conservation Commissioner Alexander MacDonald, will weigh the project as ex Attorney General G W Wickersham represents local property owners and the camp. The group argues conservation bills chiefly serve private power interests and would force veterans from the lakefront site.
