Green McHenry 385-5500 GREATEST PHYSICAL NEED, SAYS SECRETARY OF INTERIOR, IS . . . Adequate Facilities for Outdoor Recreation Nation Plans Protection of Resources By ROGERS C. B. MORTON Secretary of the Interior In the 1970's and beyond, we face no greater physical need than seeing that all Americans are provided with adequate recreation facilities. A trip to the outdoors -- in a city park, along a winding stream, on a quiet trail, or in other sur­ roundings -- often can pro­ vide the human soul with re­ newed vigor and spirit to enable it to cope with the stresses of our Morton urban age. President Nixon and his Administration are commit­ ted to bringing more needed recreation opportunities to Americans across the land. One of the most significant actions taken by President Nixon was his proposal for full-funding of the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Because of his proposal, that Fund will gain greater use in all of our States and most of our cities and counties. Just recently, upon appro­ priation by Congress, I di­ rected Interior's Bureau of Outdoor Recreation to dis­ tribute $255 million in grants during fiscal year 1972 from the Fund. "Legacy of Parks" This Fund is one of the key elements in the President's "Legacy of Parks" plan for Americans everywhere. With the apportionment from the Fund this year, Interior will have provided more than $750 million in Federal money to the States and their cities and counties to expand out­ door recreation opportunities. When that Federal money is matched with an equal amount of State and local outlays, it means that Amer­ icans will have made invest­ ments of more than $1.5 bil­ lion to acquire and develop needed outdoor areas and faculties since the Fund be­ gan in 1965. And, at the same time, the Fund is serving as a catalyst to bring increased State and local money for recreation purposes, as well as addition­ al investment by private en­ deavor to help meet increas­ ing recreation needs. President Nixon has chal­ lenged the Nation to make peace with nature and repair the damage done to our air, land, and water resources. To help achieve that objec­ tive, since 1969, 13 new areas have been added to the Na­ tional Park System; the Na­ tion now has a National Sys­ tem of WUd and Scenic Rivers and a National Sys­ tem of Scenic and Regional Trails; and more than 25 wilderness proposals were submitted to the 91st Con­ gress, including 14 new wil­ derness proposals, comprising 1.8 million acres. Transfer to States President Nixon requested that HUD's program of grants to States and localities for open space be reoriented to provide more urban parks and that its budget authority be increased from $75 million to $200 million. / The President also estab­ lished a Property Review Board to declare certain Fed­ eral properties surplus and available for transfer to State and local governments. More than 9,000 acres -- worth in excess of $40 million -- al­ ready have been transferred to States and localities for park and recreation purposes. In November, President Nixon directed me to submit to Congress legislation to cre­ ate the Big Cypress National Reserve in Florida. When approved by Congress, this proposal will empower the Secretary of the Interior to acquire 547,000 acres which form the heart of a tremen­ dous watershed and provide life-giving sustenance to Ev­ erglades National Park. Big Cypress is more than 3A the size of Rhode Island, 12 times the size of the Dis­ trict of Columbia, and slight­ ly larger than Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

B. Morton, in amplification of the special'message he has prepared exclusively for the readers of this section. "The primary purpose of the Centennial will be to focus at­ tention on achievements... to plan the beginning of a mean­ ingful second century for our national parks . . . and to explore new concepts for the park and recreation movement in Amer­ ica," he explains. "The theme for the Centennial Celebration is 'Parks, Man and His Environmental Ethic.' The Act that gave us Yellowstone * in 1872 declared that land would be 'A public park or pleasuring ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people' and the natural curiosities or wonders should be retained as they were found. "The concept that government should provide parks for all the people is a unique American contribution to world culture. The idea has since spread to more than 90 countries. "National parks leave one with the feeling that the natural heritage we have preserved will forever portray our noblest aspirations and enhance our cultural ideals." > T5 Pictures like the photo notes above can well be the treasure brought back from vacation this year by the ever increasing number of people who seek revitalizing relaxation for themselves and their families in the Great Outdoors of the United States and Canada. Lower left is a glimpse of horseback riders in 100 year- old Yellowstone National Park. of an irreplaceable national treasure. 482 Million Visits While the Federal Govern­ ment and private interests have acted to meet increasing recreation demands, States also have increased their efforts. By way of comparison, in 1935, 38 of our States had 484 State parks and monuments totaling around 2.7 million acres. In 1970, 50 States had a total of 3,425 State parks and recreation areas totaling more than 8.5 million acres. Visits to those areas in 1970 exceeded 482 million. America is moving on many fronts to buttress its supply of recreation areas and fa­ cilities. With perseverance and dedication to the task ahead, I believe we will be able to meet most of our pressing and important rec­ reation demands. Many of those on-the-job- friendships ripen into another office collection. Many gals are said to rate prospective employers as to possibility of advances. Canada Acts to Keep Its Clean Air Clean, Fresh Waters, Pure Canada makes an intri­ guing call to people who en­ joy outdoor life. Ever increas­ ing in popularity are the recreations of fishing, camp­ ing, hiking, canoeing. At the same time, the coun­ try does have its problem of pollution, and is acting to keep its air and waters clean and inviting. Action by both the prov­ inces and the Federal Gov­ ernment is combating the menace of pollution, says the Canadian Government Trav­ el Bureau. Smaller organi­ zations at municipal levels share in the work. In the east, the Newfound­ land and Labrador Clean Air, Soil and Water Authority gives top priority to new projects having to do with water and sewage. Prince Edward Island, in accordance with its economy, stresses the installation of waste treatment facilities and cleanliness of ground­ water. Only quite recently has Nova Scotia felt the need to think of a clean environment in terms other than those that fit an economy of farm­ ing, forestry, and fishing. With the advance of industry has come control of all pollu­ tants. Home of Salmon New Brunswick, not great­ ly industrialized, directs its main effort against water pollution. It boasts of the St. John River, a course of great beauty and the home of salmon and other game fish. In Quebec, the problem is manifold, if not complete, in certain areas. Industry and agriculture exist side by side, but it is in and around large cities that poUution is most severe. The aim of Quebec extends to total policy, and with a newly created depart­ ment of environment the province pushes forward to all-out effort. In Ontario, too, pollution control is the main function of one body: the Department of Energy and Resources Management. Air studies have led to the discontinu­ ance of harmful discharges from all sources. The prov­ ince has complete control over the disposal of all solid Come In And Browse Arouno-- See Our Bargain Table oo -- SAVE*O THIS THURSDAY, FRIDAY A SATURDAY PER GALLON ON w|||YL ACRYLIC LATEX KXTKRIOR HOUSE PAINT SAVE '2°° ON IVIRY GALLON!

The Clean Environment * Act of Manitoba provided this province with an instru­ ment for the coordinating of a total anti-pollution pro­ gram. Two years later, in 1970, Saskatchewan formed an In­ terdepartmental Committee on Environmental Pollution. However, pollution is not as serious a problem in this province as it is in other areas. , In Alberta the Provincial Board of Health supervises basic control of the pollution of water and air. Assistance from the Alberta Department of Lands and Forests provides help in mak- * ing the environment safe for fish and other wildlife and • in conserving and developing areas for recreation. Picturesque British Colum- ; bia requires new pulp mills to treat waste so that the effluent has no ill effects on salmon in nearby water courses. Legislation already enacted for the Yukon and the North­ west Territories provides for, the non-contamination of in­ land and Arctic waters and controlled use of public lands as they are being explored and developed. Of particular interest to devotees of outdoor pursuits are two other functions of the Federal Government: to make regulations for the preservation, management, and control of Canada's na­ tional Parks, and to protect migratory bird® especially from oil waste aeposited on waters they frequent. Many an unvisited spot awaits visitors. And even along a good many well- traveled roads one can breathe invigorating air. Not so far away, one can paddle over clear and placid water and hike through tree land and over shrubby ter­ rain. It's all there still -- to enjoy. Little Girl Smocks Make Comeback School girl classic, artist's companion -- the smock re­ turns to inspire young and fresh fashion looks for fall. From happy-go-lucky little dresses that are cinched with belts to sporty little uncon- fined tops, they offer zest and fun to the separates picture. Long sleeved smocks matched up with slacks, short-pants or knickers can make the rounds from basket­ ball games to informal parties to special dates. Turtlenecks, big collars and keyhole necklines with smock detailing are among the many looks. 4 Prints, posies and solids in corduroy, jerseys and knits appear most often. WESTWARD HO Frontier looks are letting little girls pioneer the wild west in Indian squaw dresses spiced with rick-rack. (
