His appreciation and approval of the national park move* tnent were signally shown at ths 1923 opening of Yellowstone few its fifty-first year by an officlsl declaration of administration policy worthy of Its place as the first national park in all history and largest and inost famous of sll America's nineteen public plsf* (rounds set apart by congress for the use of ths people forever. That official declaration of administration poller was nothing less than absoluw . protection of the national park system against commercial Invasion and exploitation. ' Dr. John Wesley Hill, chancellor of LllicOm Memorial university, made the declaration. Hs officially represented President Harding and Secretary 6f the Interior Work at the Yellowstons" opening. His statement was prepared, careful and emphatic. It contained the following: "And we are here today ... to celebrate ths annual opening of Yellowstone park, the largest and most far-famed of our national parks, a wooded wilderness1 of three thousand three hundred squars miles, containing incomparable waterfalls, mors geysers than are found In the rest of the world sll put together, Irrigated by rivers like miniature lakes, and beautified by lakes like Inland seas, carved by canyona of sublimity, decorated with colors defying the painter's art, punctured with Innumerable boiling springs whose steam mingles with fleecy clouds, stuccoed with vast areas of petrified forests, a sancthary of safe retreat for feathered songsters and wild beasts, a wonder* land, playground, sanitarium and university all In one, where the eye feasts upon the riotous colors of flowers, ferns and rocks; the ear Is surged with the symphony of melodious sounds: the mind is sated with a thousand revelations of truth and beauty, ana the jaded body, weary w*'h the trudge of thought and toll and travel, unglrds for song and dance beneath the shadows of the everlasting hills. "Yellowstone history Is replete with crises where the friends of the park and the park Ides have had to fight with a heroism worthy Its explorers and discoverers to retain it Intact against the' bold and presumptuous claims of the advocates of special privilege, determined to commercialize this land of wonder, to build railroads through It, tunnel Its mountains, dam Its lakes and streams, and secure stranglehold monopolies with small compensation to the government and. total loss to the people. A "And regardless ol' all facts and figures, app^jpw and threats, therefore, any plan, however meritorious on Its face, for the commercial exploitation of parks must by the very nature of Its alms and purposes be Immediately doomed to failure. "Good projects, bad projects. Indifferent prelects, all must face the same fate, for It Is at last established policy of the government that oar national parks most and shall forever be maintained In absolute, unimpaired form, not only for the present, but for all time to come, a policy which has the unqualified support of President Harding. "This is the fixed policy of the administrates, and I can assure you It win not be modified. It will not be swerved a hair's breadth by any !cl}Bence, financial, political or otherwise. "If rights are granted to one claimant, others must follow, so s precedent must not be established. It would Inevitably ruin tho entire national park system." Doctor Hill might have been more definite ta the matter of the attacks by commercial Interests o£on Yellowstone. Since early In 1920 It has required increasing vigilance and aggressive organized effort on the part of the vast army of national park enthusiasts to defeat these attacksi During the wlnt?r and spring of 1920 the Sixtysixth congress nearly passed the1 Smith bill creating a commercial Irrigation reservoir In the southwest corner of Yellowstone for the benefit of Idaho. Atfd It did pass the water power bill granting to a commission power to lease public waters, including those of the national parks and monuments, for water power.

Ra> Mah Co.,222B Congress St,West, Detro* • national organization of defense, about 4,000,000 strong, waa quickly effected. The Smith bill was killed in the house, after it had passed the senate. The Jones-Esch bill exempting national parks, present and future, from the Jurisdiction of the water power commlssiou was irtroduced and forced forward. The water power Interests were powerful enough, however, to force a compromise amendment which exempted only the existing nattonnl parks. The Jones-Esch bill was passed by the Sixty-sixth congress. In December of 1920 Senator Walsh of Montana championed a bill to dam Yellowstone lake for an Irrigation scheme In Montana. A long and hard-fought battle followed. In June of 1921 Secretary of the Interior Fall reported on the bill nnd straddled on the question of protection, holding that power and Irrigation development In the^ national parks should he only "on specific author-t Ization of congress, the works to be constructed and controlled by the federal government." Thereupon Senator Walsh proposed a new bill providing that the United States reclamation service should build and operate the Yellowstone lake dam. The defenders of the park proved that the dam could be built to greater advantage outside the park. In 1922 the upholders of the parks won a victory by electing Scott Leavltt In Montana to congress over Jerome Locke, originator of the dam project. The final result of the fight was that the Sixtyseventh congress adjourned March 4, 1923, leaving the Walsh dam In the committee's pigeonholes. Efforts to revive It are expected In the Sixtyeighth congress. During these three years snother victory of great Importance along the same line was the smothering In committee of the All-Yenr National park bill, personally drafted ana sponsored by Secretary Fall. This bill created a national park In the Mescalero Indian reservation In New Mexico out of several Insignificant spots widely separated, plus an Irrigation and power reservoir ninety miles sway. It would have introduced both water power and Irrigation Into the national park system. There was a nation-wide protest against this bill. In which New Mexico Itself took an active part The bill Is too dead. It is believed, to be resuscitated. A third victory called natlon-wlde attention to another danger that threatened--and still threatan, the national parks. The victory was the defeat of the Slemp Mil creating the AppalacMan National park out of a Virginia mountain top. It was opposed on the ground that the area was below the proper national park quality. It was favored by Secretary Fall, who In his report to the public lands committee ssld that his policy was to substitute a wide-open recreational parte system of many small playgrounds for our historic national park system. The late Franklin K. Lane, as secretary of the Interior in 1918, nailed down tills plank ta the national park platform: In studying? new park project "^oti should seek to find "scenery of supreme and distinctive quality or some natural feature po extraordinary or unique as to be of natipnal interest and Importance . . The national park system as now constituted should not be lowered in standard, dignity and prestige by the Inclusion of areas which express In leas than the highest terms the particular olaas or kind of exhibit which they represent. President Harding was the first president to announce publicly a general administration policy of absolute conservation for the national parks system and for all of its units. Both Roosevelt an<! Taft were good friends of the national parks, but preservation against commercial invasion was not a question in their days.' President Wilson, in his first term, signed the Hetch Hetchy bill giving San Francisco tlie water supply reservoir In Yosemlte which has just been completed; its secret water power purpose was not then generally understood. President Wilson, however, stoqfl by the national pnrks loyally apd powerfully In the fight to exempt them frotn tlu jurisdiction of the water power commission. * president Harding, In snnoncclng this administration policy, was not anticipating a popular demand so much as answering It. The truth Is that the American people have within the last three years adopted our nineteen national parks as a part of their conception of the greatness of their nation. "Hands off!" applies to the national parks as well as to Old Glory. They are eager to defend them and to keep them lnvklate. And ^hey have developed organized strength through the affiliation of a dozen or so nation-wide organisations to see that congress shall legislate wisely concerning the national parks. The announcement of. the conservation policy was received with nstlon-wlde delight. The national park enthusiasts hoped that the conservation /policy would bev' broadened to uphold Secretary Lane's important plunk. t Yellowstone also gets Into the limelight this season because President Harding paid it a twodays' visit on his way to Alaska. The President's psrty went In and out through the north entrance sad did about 150 miles of motoring lu seeing various points ef Interest. On the Continental Divide they drove through snowbanks. The President went yachting on Yellowstone lake--undammed. He saw many wild animals and fed gingerbread and molasses to a black bear and her cub. He saw the Painted Terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs. Old Faithful geyser spouted 150 feet Into the air every sixty-five minutes for Mm--as-It does for every visitor. The photograph reproduced herewith shows the President and Mrs. Harding, under escort of Superintendent Horace M, Albright, viewing from Artist Point the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and the Lower Falls. The President was visibly Impressed by the sight--one of the grandest and most besutlftil in the world. Just sixty-three years--1807-1S70--were repaired to put Yellowstone on the map; the American people simply wouldn't believe th^re was any rach place. The Lewis and Clark expedition of 1804-00 passed close hy it, but the Indians never mentioned It, considering It the abode of "Evil Spirits," who punlshet. all talk about them. John Colter, a member of the party who went back to trap beaver, discovered It in 1807. U|»on his' return to St. Louis in W510 the people duhhed It "Colter's Hell" and laughed him and his tale out of court. James Brldger rediscovered it about 1828 and the public said "Just another of Jim Brldger's 'big yarns."* The gold prospectors of 1862 described It and were set down as liars, it took the Washburn-Langford expedition of 1870 to make the people believe In Its wonders. The members of that expedition were for pre-empting the scenic points and making their fortunes. COPBellus Hedges rebuked them *nd proposed the nstlonal park plan--the first In all history. The park was established by act of congress in 1ST2 •ad Yellowstone celebrated its semi-centennial last fall. Yellowstone contains &348 sqasra miles--3.II* la Wyoming. 198 in Montana and 30 in Idaho. Big as it Is, the plan is to enlarge it hy the. addition of many square mile* ta the 3outh--the Jackson Hole country, which contains Jackson lake and the Teton mountain* and !s a natural part of the park.

'I* \ , > It appears that "all kinds of waves" •re aoer made to order, and that ooe can order any one of a half dozen varieties of waves, produced by an odd-looking bit «f machinery devised for the purple. Some of Ilvi- e gbt e*r .s e.v. en .varletlM of waves are: Vie gentle, rolling billows; the short, choppy kind; the whitecap variety snd big ones resembling the ocean waves. Each of these, it is reported, can be manufactured st will merely by manipulating tine four plungers of the machine in different ways, saya the Washington Star. For instance. If yon want the long, colling billows sll yon have to do Is 4o cause the four plungers to work in unison. 'They plunge Into the water all at once nnd muse the big swells. If the short, choppy wave Is wanted the plungers are worked independently of each other. Two up and two down gives the whitecap sort. This curious * machinery, which makes perfect waves, was Invented to convert placid lakes at summer resorts Into lakes with real live waves and make bathers think they are enjoying a real Atlantic or Pacific surf --at least while the machinery was working, for aa soon as the electric motor is stopped the water resumes its placidity. It appears that these waves can be made all day long for thousands of bathers and at comparatively little expense. It is raid that a dollar a day is the cost of operating the electric motor that drives the uia- •mokor Stories for ExaiUpfe "'!
