Abstract

W HEN President Roosevelt recommended to Congress on April 5, 1937, that the Civilian Conservation Corps be made a permanent agency of the Federal Government, that recommendation represented an expression of judgment on his part that the need for a nation-wide employment and training program for young men is not confined to periods of acute economic distress. It was likewise an expression of his conviction that the Civilian Conservation Corps during its first four years of operation had demonstrated its practicability and usefulness both as an agency for supplying employment to unemployed young men and as a means of advancing a highly useful nation-wide conservation program.
