Work to Be Done in U. S. Forests by Civilian Corps
Albuquerque May 3 The enrollment of the civilian conservation corps is in progress and workers will be stationed on National Forests in the southwest. Large quantities of trail building, fire protection, lookout towers, shelters, telephone lines, timber improvement, insect control, and survey work are planned. Training will emphasize fire suppression and safe handling of matches. Additional projects include range fencing, stock driveways, water seeps, dirt tanks, eradication of poisonous plants and pests, and developing recreational areas. Demand for profitable campground and forest improvements remains high with numerous potential tasks as the season progresses.
