Fear of relief demand rise and CCC cuts in the West
Washington reports fear that relief demand may surge again as winter deepens while the Roosevelt administration seeks to slow the federal debt rise to a new peak of about 30.55 billion dollars. Relief chief Harry Hopkins cites declines in November but warns city conditions worsen with exhausted local resources and rising needs. Concurrently CCC units in the Eighth Corps area are reduced by 42 percent, with 3 1/2 of 42 units to be discontinued by January 1, transferring men to other corps and conserving funds. Disbanded Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona, New Mexico, Wyoming, and Colorado camps will shift personnel to finish terms and sustain projects.
