' PAGE EIGHT ~ I ' r ' ' i 4 WILLIAMS IS INFAVOR OF SCENIC PARK Minneapolis Man Writes Sena- * tor Nye Letter Giving Proj- ect Endorsement ! Minneapolis, Min July 23.— Supporting the proposal to create a national park in North Dakota's Bad Lands, P. S. Williams, executive sec- retary of the Minneapolis Civic and Commerce Association and an expert in promoting tourist travel, has told Senator Gerald P. Nye of North Da- kota that the proposal ‘‘possesses un- usual interest” for Minnesota and Minneapolis as well as to the country at large. Williams was a member of the arty which recently toured the Bad be i in company with members of ‘a sub-committee of the senate public lands committee. He was one of the valiant few who finished in the sad- dle a 20-mile trip through the can- ons and among the buttes which faye given a name to the region. The letter written by Williams to Senator Nye follows: “The proposed establishment of the so-called Roosevelt and Killdeer al Parks in North Dakota possesses an unusual interest to the country at large and especially to North Dakota’s neighbors and Min- nesota and Minneapolis. ims “At the hearing at the Buddy ranch near Medora, the witnesses extensively established the historical claims of the proposed park region. Further, the personal examination of the section by your committee con- clusively disclosed the geological and scenic claims of the park region. “Merely by way of qualifying as a witness, the undersigned has for more than 10 years specialized in the development of travel to Minneapolis and the Minnesota lake region. The work we have done here has received recognition through the election of the writer as vice president of the community advertising section of the International Advertising clubs, vice | Soar of the American Travel lopment association and first viee president of the National Asso- ciation of Convention Bureaus. “Natural attractions or historical spots which will bring tourists de- serve to classed among the assets of the section possessing them. From this standpoint alone, North Dakota is entitled t to the establishment of these national park areas in order to have the benefit of a government stamp. . Nation Wants Parks The fact that the nation has said these regions are set aside for par- ticular reasons of interest to the rt only enables the state of orth Dakota to obtain full benefit from her rightful possessions while her own claims mane be disputed He questioned as merely an attempt to attract visitors. The national label, therefore, is essential if many thou- sands of the citizens of this nation ‘are not to pass up some of the most unique and historical spots in Amer- ica, mistaking the announcement concerning them as the result of local _pride. “The economic elements of the es- tablishment of the parks, however, fer transcend any other. The nation desires in every practical way to aid the agricultural sections of the United States. A prosperous and contented rural population is the only permanent safeguard of the nation’s future. sf Travel Industry The establishment of these park: fn North Dakota would make able to one of our outstanding agri- cultural sections a tremendous travel lustry. There is not the least doubt that the establishment of these national parks would send ls of visitors annually on pilgrimages to North Dakota. Such a tourist ux is particularly val- uable in an agricultural community. It.is positively a cash business and is at the most nppcrtane time, between seeding and harvest. It will enable the smal] town merchant to extend unusually liberal credit to his rural customers and at the same time through the cash received from the visitor take his trade discount at the marketing centers. It will make thousands of farms a roadside mar- ket Doge and develop new markets for farmer for his eggs, milk, ,eream and garden truck, all on a ‘epot cash basis. “While I know there is some dis- nt on the question, I believe name ‘Bad Lands’ should be left attached to the park name some- where because of its great advertis- Power and long association in the minds of the public.

The coroner's jury previously had recom- mended Reed be held for action by the county grand jury. The action of the state’s attorney followed the filing of affidavits made by Reed’s brother, Arthur, and his nephew, Kenneth, who said Reed had endeavored to obtain explosives last week before Plager was slain. Reed stubbornly maintained his si- lence, saying his attorney had ad- vised him not to talk. Plager was killed when a dyna- mite bomb exploded in his auto- mobile as he stepped on the self tarter.
