COUNTY KEEPS QUOTA
FOR CCC ENROLLEES:
OTHER COUNTIES CUT
The Cambria County quota for CCC
Camp enlistments for April will re-
| main the same as the previous quota
| of 230 youths although the majority of
other county quotas have been cut, it
as revealed last week at the offices
the DFA in Johnstown.
Full details on the local enrollment
have not been received as yet, it was
scia. However, the April quota de-
1initely has been set at 225 white and
5 Negro youths between the ages of
i7 and 23. Applicants must come from
families on relief, according to regu-
lations.
{he last group of CCC enrollees from
Cambria County was assigned to
camps in January. Applications for the |
April assignments now are being re-
ceived and information on the proper
procedure is available at the DPA of-
fices in Johnstown and Ebensburg and
trom DPA visitors.
Relief officials expressed themselves
as being pleased with the fact that the |
Cambria County quota was maintain- |
ed despite sharp quota reductions in|
many counties. It was pointed out that |
the local county is known as “a good |
county for CCC enrollments”—mean-
ing that the quota assigned has always
been filled with comparative ease.

JOBS FOR MINE
WORKERS IS GOAL
Washington — Chairman Synith,
(D.-W .Va.) of the House Mines and
mining kommittee indorsed “whole-
heartedly” last week a proposal to
boost business in the coal fields
through development of generating
plants powered with coal.
“It would be a big step toward sol- |
ving the problems of overproduction
ana unemployment in the soft coal
fields,” he said.
“If carried out it also would mean
hundreds of thousands of jobs for mi-
ners now unemployed.”
Representative Fries (D.-Ill.), au-
thor of the proposal added other thou-
sands o fjobs would be provided
through many divergent phases of tne
program,
Fries would create an agency, prob-
develop the steam-electric plants
throughout the country.
Such plants, Fries said, would pro-
vide cheap €lectric power to consu-
mers, and consume many hundreds of
thousands of tons of coal annually.
In addition he proposed establish-
ment of at least two research labora-
tories to seek new uses for coal and
its by-products.
He predicted that his plan would
raean jobs for evry coal miner in the
country and would provide thousana:
of jobs in associated industries.
WILL SELL SLOW
MOVING LIQUORS
Harrisburg — The Liquor Control
Board anticipates little difficulty clo-
sing out 369 brands of slow-moving
liquor and wines in the state stores at
“full mark-up” prices to liquidate
stock valued at $700,000 to $1,000,000,
Acting Chairman W. Worrell Wagner
said last week.
Denying published reports that “bar-
gain basment prices” may be necess-
ary to clear store shelves of “frozen
stock,” Wagner said the 250 items pla-
ced on the “sellout” lists Monday are
moving rapidly and many vendors
have agreed to take back unsalable
brands and replace them with items
in demand.
“We have not added a new item in
the state stores since October,” Wag-
ner said, “and at the beginning of bus-
iness this week had 1,500 coded items
on our shelves.
“We now have approximately 550
items on our close-out lists with those
added this week, which includes 369
brands, some of which have been in
stock since the start of the liquor
store system.”
He explained that it had been ne-
cessary to keep in stock some slow-
moving items because of occasional
agemands which had to be filled. He
said the 500 items being closed out
did not represent more than $1,000,000
of the state store system’s current to-
tal inventory of $10,750,000.
“While the retail price of ‘decoded’
items has been reduced slightly,” Wag-
ner said, we will sell the bulk of them
at the regular mark-up level, or turn
them back to the vendors, for replace-
ments. No ‘bargain basement prices’
are necessary.”

GAME STOCKING REPORT
HEARD BY SPORTSMEN
Reports on the amount of game stoc-
ked in Cambria County since the close
of the small-game hunting season last
November were presented at the mon-
thly meeting of the Cambria County
Sportsmen's Association in the Court-
house at Ebensburg. \
The report revealed that 700 ring-
neck pheasants, 800 cottontail rabbits
and 12 coon in addition to a number of
quail were liberated in the county by
the Pennsylvania Game Commission.
Reports also showed that many more
rabbits and pheasants will be released :
within the next three months by sev-
eral of the clubs "affiliated with the
county association.
Members of the association also ar-
ranged tentative plans for the annual
sportsmen’s picuic and field day. The
affair will be held Sunday, July 23,
on the Ebensburg Fairgrounds. Ira
Bloom, president of the Cambria Co-
unty Fair Association, assured the
sportsmen they would be granted per-
mission to use the fairgrounds for the
annual outing. Plans also were announ-
ced for an elaborate program to be
staged during the afternoon. Com-
mittee to complete arrangements for
the picnic will be composed of dele-
gates from every club in the county |
affiliated with the association, it was
announced by John H. McFadden, pre-
sident of the association.
Sportsmen also discussed plans for
the improvement of Duman Dam, lo-
cated on a branch of Black Lick Creek,
between Belsano and Nicktown. The
dam long has been known as an ex-
cellent bass and sucker fishing site.
The association hopes to make major
improvements on the breast of the
dam within the next month or two.
Members also suggested that the |
association make an effort to improve
one dam in the county each year.
Frank Maser and William Goodman
both of Johnstown, were appointed to
contact the game committee of the
Fennsylvania Federation of Spaqrts-
men’s Associations in Harrisburg re-
garding the revision of the present
groundhog hunting law. The associa-
tion received word that a bill had
been presented to the Legislature
calling for the revision of the law so
that hunting woodchucks with a dog
would be legal. The delegates will
seek to assist the federation in “lobby-
ing” the bill through the house, it was
said.
Members of the association also dis-
cussed the possibility of ejecting a
conservation course in the regular high
school curriculum in the state. It was
decided to contact officials of the De-
partment of Public Instruction with the
hope of securing their assistance in |
promoting the course, which sports-
men believe is very important to the
youth of today.
