Threats, Intimid alton
Used to Force Work
ers Into C. C. C.

NEW YORK.-COercion intimida-
ton. threats and starvation mark
the beginning Of the government;
attempt to force young workers and
war veterans into the disease rid
den. army conuolled forced labor
.C.C.C. camps in a new recruit drive
begun on April /,
In recent months the number OF
young workers who left the C.C.C
camps has been very large. Unable
to endure the winter in the open
ill-clad with insufficient army cloth
ing, disguised with the food and the
army rule, 1898 left the camps dur
ing the month Of January alone
according to the figures of the war
department. On February 18th. the
last figures available, only 282 .68a
remained in the camps. out of a
total enlistment of 314.O0O. trusting
the tender mercy Of the relief
bureaus to the sayagery of army Of
ficers.
Open Intimidation of Recruits.
With the prospect Of cutting the
local relief costs. municipal relief
agencies force the young workers
into the Jobs in c. c. c. camps with
the threat of cutting off all relief
to the young workers family. The
G. G. G. wages are then assigned to
the family Of the young worker, and
all relief is stopped.
An even greater threat was used
to force veterans into c. c. c. In
Middletown, N. Y, as Roosevelt's
orders to fire all G. w. A. workers
were being carried out, veterans of
c. w A. Jobs we're handed nimeo-
graphed slips Of paper pointing out
to them that they were eligible for
enlistment in the G. c. c. camps.
A yelled threat was indicated in
the offer which stated that failure
to avail themselves to this op-
portunity may be considered as lack
Of effort on the part Of the indi-
vidual."
The paper read in part
"The attention of all veterans
is called to the fact that enroll
ments in c. c. c. camps are open
to veterans Single veterans
and veterans with small families
are urged to make application
and avail themselves Of this op-
portunity TO become self support
ing during the ensuing summer.
Failure of the eligible men to
avail themselves of this oppor-
tunity may be considered as lack
of effort on the part of the in
dividual."
Seek Permanent c. c. c.
In seeking 10000 new recruits for
the c. G. C. camps, Robert Fechner,
c. G. C. director, seeks to set up
G. c. C. as a permanent institution
for the training of youth for war
The 1900 camps, he indicates, ere
to be continued for at least another
year at the express wish of Roose-
welt.
To those young workers who are
being enlisted for the G. c. c., the
following letter from former G. C.
c. worker, now member of the G.
&C. Boys Protective League, should
be especially interesting. This letter,
after describing the bad conditions
in C.C.C. Co. 272 at Boston Corners,
N. Y, reports some of the struggles
by which the conditions were i'm
proved:
We had two major strikes, and a
number Of smaller partial struggles
against the bad conditions in our
camp. My greatest surprise was
the willingness to struggle among
the majority Of the men, who were
all "stick-together" conscious.
Our first struggle was against
working in the rain. 1t involved
