THURSDAY, JUNE 1. 1933 Till OANIXLN PRr:3 r. 1 THE HIGHLANDS MACON IAN Forest Camps Conserving Human as Well as Natural Resources, Recruit Says Tells about Organization Of Conservation . Corps BY GRANVILLE LILES (Special Repretefltative of The franklin Pre in N. C. Civilian Conservation Camp No. 9) . From the moment President Roosevelt signed the Reforestation Bill until the present time, employ ment has been increasing- rapidly. One has ( expand the imagination to .conceive ...f a quarter ui .r mil lion lueubetniiiti.t; vik on a single i'.V'j.-i a. piuject wiucn means a reformation as well as reforestation, a conservation pro gram which means the conserving of human resources as well as natural resources. A great machine has been whip ped into shape, a monster to pull us out of a rut that was ruining the nation. Shall we let this great project pass as an immaterial thing? Do you everybody wish to take an in terest in it ? Surely ! Take an in terest in ' it. Talk it over with your friends. Read about it. Think of it as a great life-saver, a thing that concerns everyone a code oi helping others. - Purposes of Pioect: From the beginning no one has gotten the straight of the project an act passed by congress provid ing for the relief of the unemploy ed through . the performance of public Wiork, namely, the restora tion of the country's dwindling natural resources. i-ViLCt Cliailllll Ul Ul 11K jviiaiaj tion bill, the federal departments! of labor and agriculture, working j in cooperation, took steps to carry out its purposes. A chart outlining the work to be done was drawn up. It calls for : Reforestation of lands belonging to the federal gov ernment suitable for timber pro duction, prevention of soil erosion, forest fires, plant disease; the con struction and maintenance of roads and trails. ' ' Army Takes a Hand Then the U. S. army was called into cooperation with the labor and agriculture departments. The labor department supervised the en listments; the army took charge al -"-traintng-the-men-and-op erasing -4-he4 camps, while the . depat tmeiit of agriculture, through the forestry se rvice, assumed directi on of t h e conservation work. """"After -ihe"thnrnandi5of -men- had been-enlisted.. and.turned ...ovettQ the-army; administration and or ganization work began immediately. All recruits accepted were sent to the nearest army post to run the gamut of physical examination. A o rorrnit mvcplf I KpmmA fully acquainted with the work 0f conditioning the men. Fort Bragg, North Carolina's re-conditioning camp, was turned into a training station, milling hundreds of new men through the process each day. Armed Against Disease Each new arrival was assigned to a company for shelter, mess and disciplinary training. After a qual- was sent through a physical ex amination, vaccinated against small pox and innoculated against ty phoid and paraltyphoid. During this process a sufficient equipment of clothing and toilet articles was issued each man. The army, though caught in a tight place, prepared for the men with unusual rapidity. , The organ ization and direction of this vast corps entailed a tremendous prob lem which had to be solved almost overnight. A ten-year program had to be put through in two years, so you can well imagine what sort of a job the a. ny had on its hands, In three weeks the men were whipped into shape, their lenders selected and organization perfected. Many complex problems cropped up, but all of these were met. Con fusion was pushed aside and a well marshaled body of young men was ready to go into the forests to tackle the job of reforestation. One hundred and eight men are now comfortably located in this camp and that many more con ditioned recruits are soon to be placed in the same mp . to com plete its quota. The citizens of Franklin have given the boys a hearty greeting, and a regular old mountain hand shake,' and we appreciate this in terest. . Our eyes are wide .open to this wonderful location. Its beauty is incomparable. Pure green moun tains tower in .every direction. Car pets of green climb and fold into a silky mist. A mountain stream cool and refreshing flows con veniently near the camp. So. here we are happy, content ed and willing to do our best in this great, project. Camp Reporter Granville Liles To 'Cover Conservation Corps Granville Liles, a recruit in the Civilian Conservation Corps, has been appointed special representa tive of The Press and Maconian at N. C. Camp No. 9 on the out skirts of Franklin near the Cozad roller mill. Liles, whose home is at Peach land in Anson county, has had a colorful career. Although he is only 19 years old, he has travelled 'videly. Each summer for some .cars he has been working aboard various passenger liners. This has enabled him to visit most of the majoT ports of North and South America. Last summer he was librarian on the S. S. Oriente. Singing is young Liles' forte and his chief ambition is some day to sing in opera. He has been prom ised a special audition with the Metropolitan Opera company in New York next fall and is saving every spare dollar possible, so he may take advantage of this rare opportunity. He already has made his debut as a public singer, hav ing broadcast over station WBTF at Raleigh and in a cabaret at Vera Cruz, Mexico, where he spent one summer. Liles attended Louisburg College in 1931 and 1932. Among his other aeeomplishments-is writing ;-he lik es to write short stories and has had one accepted by Liberty Mag azine.
