The report of the director of the Na- | tional Park Service for the fiscal year 1931-32, made public yesterday, chowed | that more than the total increase in number of visitors to national monu- ments and parks during the fiscal year was accounted for by visitors to newly opened Virginia moriuments. | 'While travel to all national parks and monuments during the year showed an | increase of only 209,740 persons, the | Colonial National Monument, with no travel listed the previous year, had 400,000 visitors, 225,000 of whom at- tended the four-day celebration at Yorktown in October, 1931. Increased numbers of visitors were | also reported for the George Washing- ton_ Birthplace National Monument, at ‘Wakefield, and the Great Smoky Moun- | tains National Park. Decreases Are Slight. | _“Eliminating the travel increase in | these areas,” the report said, there is a decrease in both national park and national monument travel. These de- creases are amazingly slight, however, | when examined in the light of eco- nomic conditions, and the drop in | tourist travel generally. The fact that the parks and monuments last year en- | tertained 3,754,596 persons shows that | these areas serve a very definite and useful purpose in our national life, and are as important in periods of depres- sion as in times of prosperity.” Extension of area of the Colonial and George Washington Birthplace National Monuments contributed, the report said, to the increase in total area included in the national park system from 12,119,579.64 acres to 12,592,316.21 acres. The report also referred to efforts now under way in the State of Virginia to secure the minimum acreage of 160.000 set for establishment of the Shenandoah National Park, which the State hopes to turn over to the United States for park purposes within the current fiscal year. Settlement of Land. “The wave of settlement and distri- bution of land had reached the West- ern mountains before the conception of the national parks,” the report said. “Thus, just in time, our Government was able to carve out of the available public lands, without direct expendi- ture, these great Western national parks, which are the glory of the Na- tion. The idea of the national park having gotten into our general think- ing, 4t became evident that certain beautiful areas in the East had been passed over. “In the past four years we have | brought into the national park system | & series of great Eastern projects. Some | | of them remain incomplete, awaiting the acquisition of lands or the avail- ability of money, but the policy of ac- quiring them has been established here and has been fixed by legislation.” HELD TO GRAND JURY | Colored Man Charged With Hold- up of Max Withspoon. | Alleged to have held up and robbed | Max Withspoon, 900 block K street, of $32 Saturday morning, Choice Henry, colored, was held on bond of $5,000 for grand jury action when arraigned | in Police Court yesterday before Judge Ralph Given. ; | "Henry was captured by Policeman S.
