MAY RETAIN TWO CCC CAMPS IN
KENT-MAGNOLIA AND WYOMING

The two Civilian Conservation
Corps camps at Magnolia and wy
oming, scheduled to be disbanded
July /, under the Federal economy
program, probably will be contin-
ued, according to word received
Tuesday night from Washington.
Disclosure that 300 CCC camps in
all sections of the country are like
ly to be retained was made by
Representative Clifton A. Wood
rum (D-Va), who announced that
President Roosevelt had given in
formal approval of the continu-
ance. The Magnolia and Wyoming
camps have a total enrolment of
368 youths. Retention of the two
camps has been sought by officials
and civic groups in conferences
with Gov. Richard C. McMullen
and u. S. Senators John C. Town
send, Jr., and James H. Hughes.
Smyrna times., 1938-03-31

If the two camps are discontinued
1t is estimated the state would lose
about 100000 spent by the two
units each year. A third Delaware
camp, at Leipsic, which was also
scheduled to be disbanded, was
saved by the transfer of the unit
to the Bureau of Biological Survey
for work on the IL ,0O0-acre game
refuge at Bombay Hook. The
transfer will take place Friday.
The Magnolia camp has been en-
gagged in mosquito control work
and the Wyoming camp in drain

Cash income to farmers through

estimated by the Bureau of Agri-

ary cash income was less than the

ed. Prices received by farmers
turned sharply downward from
January to February. All major
groups of agricultural commodities

HUNTERS MUST
AID FARMERS
Failure to Cooperate With
Hunting Program May Mean
End of State Cunning
MEET HELD AT DOVER

Failure of sportsmen to cooper
ate with farmers may spell the
end of hunting in Delaware, Loan
ard K. Yerger, president of the
State Board of Game and Fish
Commissioners, intimated at
rally of about 300 persons interest
ed in wildlife in Dover Saturday
night. IF the sportsmen of Della
ware are so dumb as not to sup
port farmers where they hunt and
where they see the signs erected
by the state board, indicating the
farmer is cooperating with the
boards hunting program, 1 don't
know what is going to happen to
the sport in Delaware" ne declar-
ed. The meeting and dinner pre-
ceding it, held in the Peoples
Congregational Church, We're in
observance of the National Wild
life Conservation week. Conser-
walton of the game and fish re-
sources of Delaware, which ac-
cording to Alfred S. Richards,
president of the State Game and
Fish Protective Association spon-
sors of the meeting, produces 81
358, 900 in revenue to private bust
ness and the state department an
nually, was discussed. Clarence E.
Jester, Milford, master of the Del
aware State Grange, said he
thought it was the duty of every
farmer to cooperate with the staCe
board. L think the plan will
work" Mr. Jester said, The farm
er is the custodian of the game
and I think farmers should have
the right to stop some sportsmen
from killing all the game in farm
cover areas. The game is there
for the farmers as well as the
sportsmen.' Mr.. Yerger said there
had not been a friendly c0opera-
i've spirit in the past 10 years He
there are 10000 farmers
n Delaware, 10000 licensed hunt
.ers, and the income of the State
Board of Game and Fish Commits
;ioners is about 100000, Of which
IS per cent must be spent on di-
'ect purchase of wildlife. "The
armer is first to be considered in ]
his connection as he is the Gus ]
odian of the game. We must look ,
o him for the crop of widlife and /
le must be encouraged to cult I
ate game. For a man to hunt on !
farm without permission of the q
armer is like a man coming into /
our backyard and taking clothes a
IF the line. We expect the farm a
r to be judge of who will gun on /
is farm. Our wardens," Mr.. 5
,erger continued, expect to CO. '
perate with the farmer and ar v
est persons who trespass on his .
roperty and we will prosecute if t
ne farmer presses the case" In il
revious years game has been dis 2
ributed regardless of what areas
re posted against hunting. This
ear game will be released where
uniting is permitted by the farm =
r, Mr.. Yerger said, and 1900
irmers have accepted the plan.
We have requested the farmers
ask the hunter to park his car
ear the barn or farm house so the I
lnter can report the kill of game
) he leaves. This information. to
forwarded to the game commits
on, will guide the commission as
restocking to maintain the
