Paul Jarrico worked on the script. He later said the film "dealt with the fight Richard Arlen, Andy Devine and some Dead-End-type kids in the Civilian Conservation Corps put up against the timber barons. Premature environmentalism." The script was rewritten but Jarrico kept story credit.[1] The Los Angeles Times said "Andy Devine is delightful."[2]
