Fraud story revealed at Interior Department hearing
Washington's Senate committee heard details of a long running fraud by Interior Department clerk Reno Stiteley. The 29 year old former National Park Service voucher chief forged CCC camp vouchers from August 1933 to March 1937, defrauding about 84000 dollars. Investigators said he used a dummy camp in Shenandoah National Park, cashed vouchers via War Department disbursement, and hid copies to avoid detection. He pleaded guilty to nine forgery counts and escaped exposure by shifting operations between departments.
