RECKLESS
 MONEY SPENDING
Chambers of Commerce
 Urged to War Against
SELECTED PROJECTS

Boston, August 25-Chambers of commerce in New England cities and towns are urged to take the initiative in preventing reckless borrowing for. unwarranted pro- jects under the public works title of the MIRA and to discourage To- cal support of projects which are either unnecessary or will even- tually increase the tax burden. Their responsibility in regard to local public works was pointed out to New England chambers of com merce to-day in letter from John F. Tinsley, chairman of the com munity development committee of the New England Council, made public at Council headquarters here.
 Pointing out that organization of New England for participation in the Federal public works program Is now virtually, complete and that consideration of state and local projects begins this week, MT Tins ley outlined for the information of New England chambers of com merce the types of projects pre- ferred and the procedure by which they are to be financed.
 ''While the federal and state ad- ministrations have set up many safeguards against reckless bor- rowing and eXtravagant adminis- tration of federal funds for public works, there stil lremains need for guidance of local opinion so that unwise projects will not even be Submitted" Mir Tinsley's letter states. "When local projects are approved, there will be need for care to see that rigid economy in other local expenditures is main- tained, that all those employed on local projects are promptly remov- ed from welfare lists, and finally that the operations are kept free from politics.
 'The Community Development Committee of the New England Council Is in full sympathy with the Federal Public Works Program as part of the broad plan for na- tional business recovery. It does feel, however. that all business or- ganizations, and especially cham bers of commerce, have real and important duty tp. perform in pro- tecting New England communities from unwarranted borrowings and extravagant expenditures"
 Recommendations from. the com mittee to chambers of commerce and other organizations taking part in consideration of proposed local public works projects are:
 l. That local support of projects for public improvements not really needed be discouraged.
 2. That, generally speaking, only those projects be favsred which will in the long run decrease the tax burden and prove an asset rather than an expense to the community. ~
 3. That any proposed project be judged by whether or not 1t will immediately decrease welfare costs, and whether or not the necessary borrowing can be accomplished without impairing the credit stand ing of the community.

A Few Statistics

The conservation corps men at the 90 New England camps have developed amazing appetites, 1t was said. A .check.up at first corps area headquarters here revealed that the boys put away .S4 carloads of bacon, beef and other components of the regular army ration in a single month.
 Regular army cooks on duty at the New England camps prepare no less than 450,00O pounds of beef, mix up 540,000 pounds of four. and boil 72O,000 eggs and 90,000 pounds of coffee and serve 1t to the New England CCC men each month. In some of the com. panies the pale faced youths of a few months ago who had tramped city streets in a vain search for employment, now bronzed after months in the forests of the six states have gained an average of 12 pounds in weight, the result of life in the open, physical exercise, regular hours for work. recreation and rest. and army rations pre- pared by cooks who have been trained at the regular army schools.
 Money Goes to Families
 Indicative of the fact that the eco men at the New England camps are helping their dependents back home are statements of army finance ocers on General Corners staff that on September 1st, no less than 23,000 allotment checks to dependents of the men at the New England camps representing approximately half million dol- lars will be sent from corps area headquarters here to their homes. This repreSents funds which the men have allotted from their monthly pay to their families back home.
 Thes7.051 World war veterans at the New England camps, 1,60O of whom are residents of New Eng land send an average of $22.50 month to their families while the other 15.736 boys send home through the finance officer at Corps Area Headquarters an average of $25.00 each month.
 The allotment checks are pre- pared by a force of army and civilion clerks here under .Lieuten- ant Colonel Emmett R. Harris, 1st corps area finance officer.

servation corps in New England during the winter months
 To Hear Presidents Message
 General Conner this week sent to the commanding officers of the copy of the presidents personal message to- the CCC men continuing the, corps another six months and expressing his wishes concerning it.
 i. The message is as follows:
 "The president has authorized the continuance; of the CCC camps for another six months enrolment. At the same time the president makes an appeal to every enrolled man to find g. job ifsit is possible to. oAso, either through his own efforts. the efforts of his family or any agency set up for that pur- pose. The president does not want any enrolled man to accept a job that means the discharge of some body else who is now working. This request to find jobs where possible will give an opportunity whenever a present enrolled man secures a job in present industry for some other boy who Is out of luck and hasn't had chance to get in, to take the place of the boy who goes out. @t3
 If any of the boys now enrolled after making an honest effort to find q job, cannot do so, then the president authorizes that boy to re-enroll for another six months period,
 The president believes that this policy fairly carried out will be beneficial both to the present en- rolled man and to others who de- sire to enroll for the second six months period"
 Franklin D. Roosevelt. N General Conner instructed the company commanders to read the message to the 23,000 men at the New England camps.
