From Coast-To-Coast in travelling across Am-ericýa ...the national landscape is mnu c h chan.ged in comparison wîsrth a short decýade ago. In somne cases, the chiangis-1 ;or the b:etter; in others it is in- e-redibly awful. Tourist blight 15 advancing more rapidly than tourist beauty. Where will it I] e,rid? Uncontrolled ribbon dlevelop- ment and mammoth biliboards *long the highway are oniy par-t oY the problem. As an amuse- ment park, Coney Island serves a delightful useful purpose But 4should the Coney Island atm-us- phere pervade coast to coast? Ocala, Fia., is a case in point. Xi is svarnped and surrounded w-'ith small signs a.nd large signs pointing the wvay to the promin- *nt comrmercial tourist attraction ,t Silver Springs. The town kooks ike qa living television iommercial, or perhaps the ig- gest bllboard on earth. Tourist blight appears in vai-, 0d forms. Among the poorest are 'he snake pîts an-d cagedi bear ettractions which are in Nýorth arolina. Stop ait a roadside sou- tenir stand outside the Great ermoky Mountains national park !or'a close-up of a patheticcgd ear. How are these poor creatures Oared for? How were they cap- tured? These questions once were asked brieilly in the Nor-th Carolina legislature, which chose ta preserve the blight and ovur- ;fflk the problem., Then there is the reptile "ýgar- fen" in the area, which uevery. cwvho loves wild creatures éhould see -- not because it is goCod, bhut ta observe how the enimals, scraggly deer, sheep, a bear, as well as the snakes, are 4ared for. More North Carolin- jans, including newspaper wri- ters and the members of the- fitate tourist commission, shouJd inspect it, too. Can this really be the type of attraction they would have out of state visitons pay money ta see? What kind of Americ.a do homegrown vacationers neally want ta enjoy? Perhaps we can escape the blight in national parkis, forests, state parks and highly endowed attractions ik(ê colonial Williamsburg. But withi the rising tide of travel and lei-. mure time pursuits, thlese will n&ever be adequate again. There 1% a challenge here to prîvate enterpnrise ta exercise matureý tasvt and judgment in the facil- i.-les At provides the travelling Public. There's also a challenge tô the states and local communi- ities ta safeguard their noadsides -stnd landscape generally. Along with travel enjoymient, e)iow is the time for proud Americans ta take a hard, criti- ,al loak at theîr countryside and, help decide its future- Michael FrOme in Amreican Fonests ma- gazine.

Giant Tortoises Maiy Be Wîped Out Amang the w,ýorld's oldest in- habitants, tonloises w-,aiched thie risc and faillo! the mig-:hty dinosaurs, anïid survived the hazards of countlcss millions o! cears. Mosi o! the animals that sharcd the world with ihem lu their ealy years have long s'Ince d1isappcared, as have many thai came in -mOuch later time. Civilizcd mari, howcver, seemr set ta -succecd whcre the forcer, of nature have failcd. At bis hauds the giani tortoise bias been reduced from a siate of asýtonishing abundance ta that of preciaus rarity. For the tortoise il was an un- fonltunate day lu 1535 when a Spanish explorer, Fray Tomnas de Berlanga, discovcred R group of islauds in thie Pacifie xoame 700 miles west o! Ecuador, for these islands wene the reptiles' homes. The islands thcm-selves, o! volceanic orîgin, wene inhos- pitable. There was liitle water and only cadti and parchcd, siunted sýhrubs lîved an the almrost baýre nocky land. There was, how- even, anc impressive fealurt about ithemn, They carried enor- DIRTY MISSILE - This Aticas missile getis a king-size scrubbing from T 1opek<a, Kan., firemen before display at a shopping centre. 11-L exhibition was in conjunction with Construction of nine mît:- aiebae round Tpekaareac. m ous populations o! gigantic tortoises. And so Berlanga naned [hem the Galapagos Islands - galapagos bclng the Spanish word for tortoise. It was not long aftcr ihis that someone discavcned that the tor- toises werc very good ta eut, Ships sailiug the Pacifie took ta calliug at the islands ta pick Up somne frcsh mieat. Que sixc- teenih century seafarer report- ed: "They are exiraordinarily large and fat, and sa swect that no pullet eats more pleasaiitly." Iu the days befote refrigera- tors and cold storage these ter- toises had one greal advantage, They could be kept aýlive lu the ship's hold for aý considetable time without haviug ta be fed, provided - thcy -werc moist and cool. Heuce they wr perfect, form o! food ta carry on a long voyage. Whencvcr fresh meat was required a few of the tan- taises could be killed. Capt-ain Porter, wvho uscd ta caîl ai the Galapagos Islands ta provision, tells us thal "ini four - days we had as mauy on board' as would weigh about founrteen tous. Thcy were plied up on the quanter-cfèck for a few days with au awning spread aven ta shicld thcm ifnom the sun, which ren- dens them very neslless, in order that they mighIt have time ta dis- charge the contents of their stomnachs; after which they were stowed awvay bclow as you would slow any othen provi- sions, and used as, occasion ne- quired. "Na description of stock is so couvenient for ships ta take ta sea as the toniaises o! ihese is-- lands. They require rio provi- sions or waier for a ycar, nor is auy futher attenion ta iheni necessary than that their shelîs shouid be preservcd unbrokcn." Durng the famaus voyage o!f the Beagle, Darcwiu visiied the Galapagas Islands. H1e was ire- mieudausly impncsscd by the "huge reptiles, surrounded by black lava, leafless shrubs an d large cacti, thai seen-ucd ta -my faucy like samne antediluLvian, animiais." Even ihen, afler cenlunies of- indiscriminate colleciing, the tar- taises were silnul nerous, and, the practice af calling ai the, islands ta colleci ihemr for food was dying oui. Un! fortunatcly,, howcvcr, as ane kiud o! exploi- tation wvas being abandoned,a- other was taking is place. Il was discavered ihat the f-at !rnmý a f ully grown tortoise could yield about thrce gall.ons of cdear-ail. Conscquently ithcy were slaugýhlencd in their ihou3-, ands lU awave of ruthilcss cam- 1 ercialism. Fc.i1- many ycars Americari whalcrs made a habit of calling ai the islands on their way home, und picking up as mnany aàs 300 tontoises at a time. Since ihene were several hundred whalers, operating iu the South Pacifie at this lime, huge numbers mnusi have been laken away over Ilîke y e ans. Darwin has le! t us a descrip- tion o! the cnasmcihoDd used, by the wvhaler cnews ta pick oui the besi specimens. "When a toniaise is caughi, the mcan m -akeýs asAit lu the akin under ils tail, so as ta sce inside ils body, -whethen the fat unden the dor- sal plate is th ick. If lu s nat, the animiral is libenaled, and il 18 said ta recover !rom this strange operaliani." By the end o! the lasi century 'the tortoises hbad been complete,- ly wiped oui on several of the ïslands, and on ihe aihers ihcy were becomîng rare. C-ollecting them for ail was stopped, but' they had blle chance lan ecovr atnd builci up thieir numxbeis agalu,, farnuow thcy faced yet third seriaus hazard.
