FORESTRY CAMP
AT REDDEN Is
ORDERED CLOSED
Willard Springer Says
There Is No Valid Rea-
son For Closing.
HUGHES rs NOTIFIED
July 2 Is Closing Date In
Action Branded AS "Ex-
tremely Unfair"
HUGHES rs NOTIFIED

The State Forestry Camp of th'
Civilian Conservation Corps at Red
den has been ordered closed July 2
Announcement of the order imme
diately aroused the ire of the mem
bers of the State Forestry Commits
sion and the action was branded as
extremely unfair" by Willard
Springer. Jr., chairman of that COM
mission.
According to the instructions re-
ceived from Washington by Captain
]. r. Dedell who is in charge of the
L. S. Army personnel at CCC camps
in Delaware and southern New Jer-
sey. the company of approximately
200 men at Redden is to be moved
to DeRuyter, near Cortland. ~ u
On July 2.
Captain Dedell conferred with
Captain William F. Danskin. COM
mander of the company at the Red
den camp. concerning the moving
of the company.
This company is composed OF vet
Grams OF the World War. The other
CCC camps at Georgetown, Wyom-
ing. and Leipsic are made up of
youths Captain Dedell reported that
only about a dozen of the men in the
company are Delawareans. the re-
mainder coming from New York and
New Jersey.
He said that as the term of many
of the men expires on June 80 it
is probable that companys strength
on July 2 will number between 160
and It's men
There is no valid reason for the
National CCC headquarters closing
our State forestry camp Mr.. Spring
er said. They have no excuse on the
basis of the failure of the Legisla-
ture to appropriate the necessary
funds as our camp is the only one
that has sufficient funds to maintain
the work done there since its incep-
ton in 1884.
I'VE had been given to understand
that the order closing our camp had
heen rescinded and that an exten-
sion of time until September 30 had
been given us the same as was given
the other CCC camps in the State
who do need additional appropria
tions."
Mr.. Springer said he had notified
U. S. Senator James Fl. Hughes of
the order to close the camps and
that Senator Hughes had informed
him that he was doing his best to
have the order rescinded. However,
at present. there is every indication
the order will be carried out. Mr..
Springer said
According to the present plans.
the camp after its abandonment will
be placed in charge of a custodian
who will keep it in order in case
new company should be ordered in
later in the summer
