Pine Camp Captives May Aid County Harvest Efforts
Onondaga County moves to bring Italian war prisoners from Pine Camp to help farmers harvest crops this fall. Prisoners would be housed in the penitentiary with negotiations to military authorities to prevent food waste. The Board of Supervisors authorized use of the penitentiary and cots from Jackson Lodge, ensuring it doesn’t interrupt normal operations. Plans for snow removal on county and state roads were approved along with buying 109 tons of calcium chloride for hills and intersections. A list of bridges needing replacement was approved to be sent to Albany for the postwar public works program.
