not include the additional list of re-

that provision was made in the 5000
100000 appropriation resolution for an
increase of the CCC from 100000 TO
100000. Thus, in two months, the
CCC has had only about one-third of
the total increase which was expected.
Frankly, CCC enlistments have been so
disappointing that the responsible au-
