Seek To Keep CCC Drainage Camp In County
County Ditch Engineer Ray Hollis says petitions and resolutions will push to keep the CCC drainage camp here at least until 1940. The program, already planned to continue until 1940, has cost about $1,800 in engineering and ditch hearing fees. Since July 1935 the camp has cleaned 59 miles of ditches and an estimated $200,000 worth of work, offering cheap drainage for farmers at about 10 cents per yard. Three draglines and roughly 1200 men are currently employed, with 30 hour weeks and 16 hour dragline shifts.
