The Civilian Conservation Corps—A Mind Web

Famous Quote:
Our greatest task is to put people to work. This is no unsolvable problem if we face it wisely and courageously. It can be accomplished in part by direct recruiting by the Government itself, treating the task as we would treat the emergency of war, but at the same time, through this employment, accomplishing greatly needed projects to stimulate and reorganize the use of our national resources. --Franklin D. Roosevelt, 4 Marfsch 1933
