Work Done By
CCC In Three Years

Washington-The third birth
day of the Civilian Conservation
Corps was marked by Robert Fech-
ner, the director with a detailed re-
port showing work accomplished by
the 100000 persons it has en-
ployed.
Since April $, 1888, Fechner
said, CCC members have planted
55S,O00,OOO trees, built 1,963,500
soil erosion control dams, cut g.
900 miles of trails and minor roads
through the forests.
The report, Fechner added,
f'speaks volumes to foresters, con-
servationists and to millions of
citizens interested in preserving, ex-
panding and developing the timber
ed areas that still remain in this
country despite the wasteful and
extravagant misuse of our forest
resources in past years"
Explaining that the CCC had
concentrated on improving and pre-
serving the nations forests, Fech
ner said that lookout towers, fire
breaks, and telephone lines to no
tify fire fighting stations had tire
mendously strengthened" fire pro-
lection.
Up to March /, he said, the cost
of CCC was 71,2O4,560,000 in
GLIDING $33,325,ooo for the pur-
chase of forest lands.
Of the 1856, $4,000 paid to
members, s26o,o0o,ooo was sent
home to their needy families. In
addition, $615 100000 was spent
for materials and equipment, in
Guiding $63,5S3,oo0 for shelter,
$149,779,0 900 for food, and $780,
$685. for clothing.
The average CCC recruit was
enrolled for eight months, Fechner
said. In addition to 100000
young men, $4,000 wal veterans
1o0, 900 persons living nea the
camps, 10000 Indians, 10000 re-
serve officers, $4,000 foresters and
technical experts, 5000 camp
teachers and 10000 mechanics
have been employed.

been found such an easy tax to COL
lect that the taxing authorities have
begun to divert the proceeds of the
gasoline tax to other than highway
uses. Mr.. Alfred P. Sloan, Presi-
dent of General Motors, in the an
nual report of that corporation, de-
cries this policy of diversion of the
motor vehicle fees and gasoline
taxes to other than highway pur-
poses. He points out that nearly
20 per cent of the proceeds of state
taxes levied upon highway users in
1884 was diverted to other pur-
poses, and the tendency toward
such diversion is growing. This,
Mr.. Sloan declares, ''creates a ten
dency to neglect highway safety
projects, and we thus lose the bene-
fit of roads engineered and built
for safe travel"
There should be general agree
ment that this unfair use of the
taxing power should be discontinue
ed. In the course of a very few
years the most magnificent system
of highways existing anywhere in
the world has been built in the
United States, largely from the pro-
ceeds of the automobile and gasoline
taxes. Motorists in general would
pay even higher gasoline taxes than
they now pay, without complaint,
if they were assured of greater val
ue for their money. They have a
right to complain when some of this
tax money is used for other than
highway purposes.

Beats Death To
Earn Fortune

Chicago-Five years ago doctors
told Helen Hughes Dulany she was
on her death bed. Today she is on
her way to fame as a designer of
industrial products and costume
jewelry.
The story goes back to one day
in St. Luke's hospital here when
Mrs. Dulany discovered she could
do things with a lump of clay and
a set of crayons.
Previous to that she had spent
most of Is years in bed, had sub
mitted to 16 major operations in
America and abroad and had heard
her case called hopeless.
Inspired by the discovery of
latent talents, she soon was out of
bed and since has been leading a
life that would shame any tired
business man.
Last year she designed five cleo
trio ranges and now is working on
more. She also did the interior of
one of the first streamline trains,
designed a modernistic cuu
cleaner, spent time in Honolulu on
commission for a pineapple COM
pany and used 100000 fashioning
art objects.

K Il *
l THANK YOU.
ca has made to the world, it seems
to me, is our ingenuity in building
brains into machines. l never 60
through a modern manufacturing
plant without seeing some new ma
chine which minimizes the need of
intelligence on the part of the man
who operates it. The engineers
who designed and the tool makers
who built it put their brains and
skill into the machine itself, so that
the most unintelligent laborer can
run it.
One of the most complicated de-
vices that We have had to turn out
during the wal was the recoil mech
anism for the French 155-milli-
meter howitzers. The problem of
making them was put up to a big
Detroit automobile factory. 1t
took three months to design and
build the automatic machines to do
the job. 1 went through the fac
tory in 1918 and found every one
of these automatic machines being
tended by a chunky Polish girl in
a smock. 1t took no muscle, it
took no skill or training, to pro-
duce, by aid of the machine which
could almost think, an apparatus in
which every part had to be accurate
to a thousandth of an inch.
UNEMPLOYMENT answer
I think the ultimate answer to
the problem of unemployment will
be a tremendous increase in the
number and variety of so-called
"labor saving" machines. Only by
providing that sort of machinery
can most of the unemployed be en-
ployed, profitably to industry and
to themselves.
The machine makes it possible to
pay wages which the unaided, I'M
skilled worker could never earn.
One of our great American dis
coveries has been that the more
machines are set to work making
useful goods, the greater the de-
mand for the goods, because they
can be sold cheaper, and so the de-
mand for more machines and work.
ers to tend the machines increases.
With all the talk about the great
army Of unemployed there are twice
as many people at work today in
the United States as there were
thirty years ago. Yet u popula-
ton is far from being twice what it
was in 1900.

Law To
Sell Gas To
Drunk Drivers

Raleigh-The city of Raleigh
and Chief of Police H. L. Pierce
were strongly commended for the
ordinance enacted only a few days
ago prohibiting the selling of gaso-
line to any person while intoxicat-
ed, by Director Arthur Fulk of the
highday safety division of the State
Department of Revenue. The or
dinance makes it a misdemeanor to
sell gasoline to any driver of a mo-
tor vehicle who is intoxicated and
imposes a penalty of a fine up to
500 or so days in Jail. The or
dinance was passed at the request of
Chief Pierce, who said it would
help greatly in curbing drunken
driving here.
IF more of the cities and towns
in the state would enact similar
ordinances, and then rigidly enforce
them, we could greatly reduce the
amount of drunken driving in the
state" Director Fulk said. For
while there are many DRINKS who
start out with full gas tanks, there
are many others who want to fill
up while still drunk. If more Or
dinances like this were in effect.
they would tend to make driver:
more careful, since they woulc
know that if they went out and got
teed up and then ran out of gas
they could not get any more unit
they sobered up. 1t is decidedly
step towards. greater street ane
highway safety"
