Our Kind Of A War
Everyone reads enough of the situation in Europu in the
newspapers and hears enough of it on the uir and on the street
corner A different kind of war is going on in this country
through the Civilian Conservation Corps for the past six and one
half years a war of reconstruction not a war of destruction It
has been a war to make America strong by saving and building
her human resources and her highly valuable nutural resources
of timber and soil
This struggle is being fought and continued in two economic
fronts On the one hand the Government through the CCC camps
lias striven to save an army of idle youth from the moral erosion
caused by unemployment This army in turn has pitted its
strength against nature in a tremendous battle to save natural
resources from the dangers of forest fires tree attacking insects
and diseases erosion and controlled flood waters
In the CCC young men have been iiflf arc being taught not
military training but selfdiscipline While a young man in the
CCC camps learns many things and gains bodily strength and
health which will he of great value to him and to his country in
event he ever went to war he is not given inilitury drill or
miltiary training of any kind As a matter of fact present rcgula
tions prohibit the teaching of military training in the eumps
The yonug men come to the Corps as raw material from the
cities or the country Each man has his own problems of course
to CCC officials it is their problem to solve his practically and
satisfactorily
Their purpose is not only to rebuild forests and lands but
to build men To gain that end n certain amount of organization
is necessary within the camp The prosecution and execution of
that camp organization helps to inculcate in cnrolccs orderly
habits and neatness as well as ability and willingness to carryout
work instructions promptly and intelligently
It is not possible under present laws foi < the CCC to be inducted
into tho United States Army as a body A CCG boy is a
civilim In war time his status is thatl of any other civilian Enrolment
in tho CCC is not enlisting in a military organization of
any kind
It is our kind of a desirable war
From Other Editors
If the United States remains out of tho European conflict it
will be a miracle Ill admit thats true But if we do go to wrtr
in the United States There is plenty of work to keep American
workers husv if the machinery of production and distribution
can be set into full motion We have the men money resources
ideas and appetites for the fruits of production What America
needs is concerted effort by American leadership working under
a doctrine of principles of social and economic justice in harmony
with the already stated political principles of freedom in
the Constitution and the Bill of Rights From the San Francisco
Chronicle
All thia palaver about the nhrcwdness diplomacy and bravery
of Adolph Hitler impresses mo as follows A 200pound man
in Guymon becomes mad at a little 60pound iiincycar old boy
and decides that he will whip him But before he undertakes the
260pound local man and pe wl >
job he goes to a powerful
him not to fight in case that he jumps on the little boy lliats
exactly what Hitler did in case of little Poland when he persuaded
Russia to sign a pact not to fight Germany under any
circumstances The only way I can interpret that move is the
fact that Hitler is afraid of Russia Guymon Panhandle Her
