F.R. CONTINUES
300 CCC CAMPS

WASHINGTON, March 30
(UP)-President Roosevelt
has tentatively agreed to
continue operation of 800
Civilian Conservation Corps
camps which we're doomed TO fau
under the federal economy axe by
July l. end of the present fiscal
year. it was learned late Tuesday.
The disclosure came when Spe-
cial house appropriations commit
tee secretly to consider a resolu-
ton by Rep. Clifton A. Woodrum,
D. Va. appropriating S50,00O,0OO
for retention of the camps, after
Woodrum obtained Mr.. RooseVelt'S
informal APPROVAL.
The Virginian said he discussed
the matter with the chief executive
before he went to Warm Springs,
and again today by long distance
telephone. In each instance, he said,
Mr.. Roosevelt favored retention,
chiefly because the camps will help
to stave off effects of the business
recession
Mr.. Roosevelt ordered the camps
discontinued as step toward bring
ing the budget into balance. Under
the program, which both house
and senate reluctantly approved,
the CCC outlay or the 1899 fiscal
year was trimmed to $226, ,33l 900,
a cut of $123, ,669 GOO below the pre-
sent appropriation
