VIA viii Build
Shelter Camp
For farm Helpers

To help meet housing shortage
among agricultural workers during
the harvest season, the War Food
Administration Thursday morning
began to lay out a five-and-one-
half f-acre shelter camp at Fairfield
Drive between Main and CONNER
cial in Ell Centro. The plot will
house 35 families, or in an emer-
gency, may accommodate 285 single
men, according to Stephen v. Gal
ter. VIA engineer from Berkley,
who is in charge of construction.
He expects the proect to be COM
pleted about October 10.
This will be here at least for the
duration of the war" said Galter.
Tenant shelters will be l4x24,
without plumbing. A separate util-
ity building will house hot and cold
running water, showers, flush toll
cts. wash basins and toilets. The
office, clinic and staff quarters also
will be in a building to themselves.
The five and half acres upon
which the camp will be located
was leased frcm the Imperial VAL
ley Farmers association at 81 per
year.
Manager Of the project is James
B. Church, who was in charge of a
mobile camp at Beaumont before he
was asked to take over the Ell
Centro camp.
Each family that is housed in
one of these Shelters" says Galter,
will pay 50 or less per week
rental"
He points cut that the exact
rental price will have TO be decided
by the War Food Administration in
Washington.
Galter announced that IA car
loads of converted grain bins, leased
by the VIA from the Commodity
Credit corporation. a government
agency, will be used in the con-
struction of the camp. The material
was sent here in panels from Gal
weston, Texas.
Other features of the camp will bt
gravel roads, walks and parking
areas.
