Captain K. T. Brunsvold, who describes so interestingly the activities of the Army's CCC Reclamation and Salvage Division at Fort Hayes, Columbus, Ohio, is well qualified to impart information on that novel enterprise because he is the officer directly in charge of the work under the general supervision of Major E. H. Besse.
