DOUBLE ALASKAN WORK BY CCC. WASHINGTON, April 28. UP)— Robert Fechner, emergency conservation work director, announced today activities of the Civilian Conservation corps in Alaska "will be materially expanded" under a new program. The expansion, effective, immediately, calls for increasing the number of local enrollees from the present 325 to a yearly average of 600, he said, and extension of their work, heretofore confined to national forest localities, to other parts of the territory. Fechner said the increased enrollment "is primarily intended to give more Indians and Eskimos a chance to engage in emergency conservation work activities." The new work program, he said, will include construction of airplane landing fields, local roads, and forest trails. Forest surveys also are planned, Fechner said, as well as preliminary investigations to determine what lands are suitable for agriculture.
