Revival Proposed In Response
To Desire In Western States
By WILLIAM E. LOWELL
AP SparUl WMhUuRoa myin
WASHINGTON.-W) Revival
recently proposed to Congress, would be welcomed in many parti of
the west, ssys Rep. Bosone (D -
The original program, established in 1933 to train and occupy the
nation's jobless youth, was abandoned in 1M2 when the demand for
labor in defense industries drained
In the nine years, more than 3,
000,000 boys hsd planted 2,366,
000,000 trees, built 126,000 miles
of trails, truck trsils and minor
roads, set and strung 89,000 miles
of telephone lines, built thousands
of erosion control check dams,
spent more than (.000,000 man-days
at forest fire fighting and engagcl
in tree and plant disease and put
controls over 21,000,000 acres.
A very large part of this was in
the forests, ranges and parks of
the west, where boys from the
sprawling industrial centers of the
east learned about the wide open
spaces and where many of them
settled down to live and work.
Problam Again Factd
The problems of conservation of
human and natural resources have
arisen again, says Mrs. Bosone,
author of one of the new CCC bills
She said:
"First, there were 1,000,000 boys
betwen the ages of It and 24
who were looking for jobs last
month. Unemployment at the pres
ent time is greatest in this ag
group.
"Second, there are some 4,000,
000 acres of national forests which
need reforestation. There are 2,
000V000 acres of trees suffering
from blister rust. One hundred
thousand miles of road and trails
need to be built into the moun
tains and wooded areaa. For fire
protection, 1,400 lookout towers are
needed."
As the boys worked, they learn
ed such things as equipment op
eration and maintenance, rudimen
tary engineering, in connection
with bridge building and road con
struction, timber estimating,
rough carpentry and tre like.
Accomplishments Listed .
In the western states alone.
221,500.000 trees were planted, 22,
500 miles of roads and trails and
many bridges built, many hun
dreds of thousands of acres of
timber treated for protection
against plant diseases and pests.

"I very definitely think that the

Federal System
Of Accounting
Rapped By Hoover
WASHINGTON. March .-UP
Former President Herbert Hoover
Tuesday urged "a vast and ener
getic reform" in the government's
bookkeeping system.
Hoover headed President Tru-
man's bi-partisan commission on
reorganization of government de
partments. Me was called to testi
fy before the Senate executives
expenditures committee on a bill
to overhaul accousting procedures
and establish a new office of ac
countant ceneral in the Treasury
department.
"There is a host of evidence
that the (present) accounting sys
tem is inefficient and wasteful,
fails to establish proper responsi
bility of officials and is unable
to present the full picture to Con
gress," Hoover said in a prepared
statement.
He said there was no difference
of opinion within the commission
or among administration officials
that reform is needed. He added,
however, that there are differences
as to the method of remedy.
A general accounting officer yes
terday accused the Citizena Com
mittee for the Hoover Report of
"abysmal ignorance" about the
government'a accounting system.
Frank Weitzel. assistant comDt-
roller general, also told the Senate
group that the citizens committee
lacks a desire to learn about the
system and the progress being
maae towards improving it. '
He made these accusations af
ter the expenditures committee
heard from Dr. Robert L. Johnson,
cnairman ot tre citizens group,
that "after 29 years of poor ac
counting, it seems to me obvious
that Congress should step in and
clean up the accounting mesa once
and for all."
The offices of the comptroller
general, the budget director and
the treasury secretary oppose the
proposed legislation. The three
agencies now are working togeth
er in an effort to improve account
ing procedures as they deem wise.
Earnings Reported By
Weyerhaeuser Company
TACOMA, March 8 - The
Weyerhaeuser Timber company is
sued a financial statement Tuesday
showing net sales for 1949 of $155,
662,755 and a net income for the
aame period of S24.633.016.
The statement said these figures
include the accounts of all subsidia
ries, including those partially own
ed, as consolidated income. Pre
vious statements consolidated ac
counts of wholly subsidiaries only.
Weyerhaeuser officials said 1948
net sales totaled $105, $18, 870 and
income for that year was $25,
962,537. The officials said, however,
that these figures do not present
a true basis of comparison with
1949 earnings and sales because
of the revised accounting proce
