Roosevelt issued Executive Order 6101 starting the Civilian Conservation Corps. The order directed that the program be supervised jointly by four government departments: Labor, which recruited the young men; War, which operated the camps; the Agriculture; and Interior, which organized and supervised the work projects. And so it began...
