~ 4 0% SEEKS SCENIC SITE OR NATIONAL PARK Appalachian Mountain Range Sug- gested for Reservation in ; the East. HELD AS DESIRABLE AREA Proposal Made in Report Is Given Approval. _ - Selection of a site for a mew na- tlonal park in the east should be preceded by a thorough study of the Appalachian mountain range for the purpose of locating the most typical- 1y scenic area. Secretary of the-In- terlor Work declared’ today. Sugges- tion for'setting aside’ of an area ‘in the Appalachian mountains for park purposes was suggested by the di- réctor of the national parks in his &hnual report a few weekg ago and has met with favorable comment. Comment by Secretary. “The recommendation of the rector,” Secretary Work said, “has created widespread interest in the east. Several bills have already been introduced in Congress. Oné by Senator Swanson provides for the dedication of not exceeding 5,000 atres, including the summit of High Knob mountain, Va., to be known as the Appalachian National Park. A House bill provides for the crea- tlon of a park of not less than 15000 agres on and including the summit of High Pinnacle mountain and Cum- berland Gap in Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee to be known as the Lincoln National Park. A bill has also been introduced authorizing the Secretary of Interior to acquire by purchase, donation or condemnation title to the tract of land containing Mammoth Cave, to be known the Mammoth Cave National Park, & “The existing national park system i the finest in the world. In making any additions to it sites should be chosen that will be in every respect Up to the standard, dignity and pres- tige of the existing national parks and national monuments. A thor- ough study, therefore, will be 'S sary before any definite conclusio may be reached. Nwmber of Areas Avallable, “There are a number of areas in the Appalachian range where great tracts of land can be purchased now at small cost, which it is not unrea- sonable to suppe with the growth of population, may increase at some future time to a prohibitive -price. “Little doubt exists, however, that when the m suitable area i’ s Jected it will be found that the own- ers through patriotic motives will donate at least part of the land for national park purpose to remain as a memorial to their kenerosity and tdterest in public affairs. “The sume principle used in locat- fng city parks in municipalities should apply to national parks. The selections should be made and the property purchased when the ground is cheap. Unless this is done, the government will be compelled later to pay exorbitant prices and, in some instances, the value of the desired land for national parks will go so high as to become prohibitive.” ‘LONG LIVE REPUBLIC 'GREEK DEPUTIES CRY di- Over Government—Adjourns After Stormy Debate. : By the Assoclated Press.
