Over the objections Of three men,

will advertise for bids on a new fire
truck OF the $4,000 class TO be opened

None Of the dissenting councilmsn
disputed the fact that the city needed

on the grounds that the insurance

CIVIC CLUB PROTESTS
Elyites Urge Retention of
Camp to Complete Work
Program in Forest.

The Ely territory may lose its only
Civilian Conservation Corps camp, To-
Gated at Portage River, because Of a
the CCC which is expected to come up
for consideration by Congress some
time next month.
The decrease in the budget if it goes
through will mean that the Superior
National Forest viii be allotted six
camps instead of the present eight.
Co. I'll at Portage River, stationed
there since the corps was inauglrated
in 1888, may be disbanded.
Secretary Ray Hoefler of the Ely
Commercial club has dispatched COM
munications to Rep. william A. Pit
tenger Of the Eighth congressional dis
trict and Senators Ernest Lundeen and
Henrik Shipstead urging them to do
everything in your power to secure
the appropriation necessary to assist
the Forest Service in carrying on its
program"
Secretary Hoefler pointed out that
vast program of dam building and
repairing throughout this part of the
forest could be carried on.
Projects within a Is mile radius of
the Portage River camp have nearly
been completed It is understood that
the forest service has the camp Sched-
uled TO move Nov. l to Tote lake on
the Fernberg Trail.
What operations in this territory
would include have not been definitely
decided, but it is believed that they
might comprise rebuilding the Fall
lake dam and possibly work on a new
dam for Prairie Portage.
A major campsite might be con-
Structed on Lake One at the end Of
the Fernberg road for use by the many
visitors to the area who at the present
time have no public facilities avail
able. 1t is pointed out that from IS
to 20 cars stop here daily, and that the
long chain Of fishing waters running
up through Lakes One, Two, Three,
-Four and into Lake Ursula offer an
ideal canoe route. Improvement of this
area, including establishment Of canoe
campsites, would probably be included
in a work program for the Tote lake
CCC camp. Tree planting and timber
stand improvement work would also
be included, and unquestionably a pro-
gram which would last for from five

There will be no open season on
