Expects Thousands of Camp White, Soldiers Extensive Plans Drawn. Ashland. March 24, SpI.) Representatives of various Ashland organisations and committees today voted unanimously to make appli cation to the Federal Se curity Agency for funds for construction of a standard recreational building in Ash land, where recreational pro grams for the soldiers would be centered. It is contemplated that thou sands of soldiers will visit Ash land when Camp White Is func tioning, probably the middle of the summer. -This will require extensive entertainment and re creational facilities and pro grams. " Mrs. A. S. V. Carpenter, chairman of the Jackson Coun ty recreational committee, and E. W. Carlton, member of the county executive committee, as well as Frank J. Van -Dyke, Jackson County Coordinating Board manager, were present. Mrs. Earl Leever, Ashland rec reational committee chairman, presided. . . It was definately established that no formal application for a federally-constructed and fi nanced recreational building had been made for Ashland, al though considerable discussion had been held in relation to such a building. New Building Needed It has been previously sug gested that one of several build ings in the city might be used for this recreational center, but it was the concensus at the meeting that probably none of these would be adequate. Mrs. Leever explained the ex tensive entertainment pro grams and committees which her committee is arranging and various phases of the subject were discussed. Councilman Ralph Kooiar moved that a formal appli cation be made by the city to the Federal Security Agency that recreational building be constructed here and that Ashland' Coordina ting Committee of which G. M. Green, Dean Peiper and Mrs. Leever were present, make a complete survey and brief of the recreational needs and facilities here to be presented in the application. The motion carried unanimously. Some 40,000 American trucks were sent overseas during the first World War, 33.000 going to France.
