"*-«'"1 -"vtv: By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN NCLE SAM would have us play--ont of doors. Incidentally, Uncle Sam here means the government of the United States; there la no polltlca in this article. President Wilson was a . good friend of out-of-doors recreation; it was he who backed the popular movement which forced through congress in his administration the act exempting the existing national parks from the Jurisdiction of the new water power commission, thus heading off Immediate danger of commercial invasion. Franklin K. Lane, in his cabinet, was the first secretary of the interior to see the economic, recreational and ethical value of the national parlt system. It was Lane, a Democrat, who Induced Stephen T. Mather, a Republican, to become director of the new national park service. It was during the Wilson administration that Hawaii (1916), Lassen Volcanic (1916), Mount McKinley (1917), Grand Canyon (1919) and Lafayette (1919) National parka were e8tabllahed by acts of congress. It was President Harding who announced through an authorized spokesman at t!ie fiftieth anniversary. of the Yellowstone, a national park policy, which promised, among other things, their protection against Invasion by the commercial interests. It was Harding who visited Yellowstone and the new Zlon National park during the summer of 1923 and confirmed that policy. It is President Coolldge who has gone a step farther than these two predecessors and would have the establishment of a definite governmental policy of participation in outdoor recreation and promotion of its advancement. Emphasis is put upon the national parks be* cause the national park movement is the exemplar of the many movements which now enter Into the-- vast question of outdoor recreation. So Important has the national parks movement become, that It Is regarded by competent students of the times aa the livest nnn-politioal issue of the day. It has called together a "National Parkb Army" with a nation-wide strength of between four and five million nature lovers of all ranks and conditions of life, all political creeds, all religions. The democracy of out-of-doors is the most democratic of all democracies. The enrollment and functioning of this "National P«rk Army" showed these things: The pop: ular support of the recreation movement; the posslbilltles of a more effective organization, and the ' advisability of the participation of the administrative branch of the federal government. So the time was ripe for the National Outdoor Recreation conference this summer in Washington -called by President Coolldge. The appointment of the Presidents committee on National Outdoor Recreation was the first step. Secretaries Weeks, Work, Wallace, Hoover and Assistant Secretary Roosevelt were the members of the committee asked by the President to suggest to him how a national outdoor recreation policy could "best be formulated and put Into action.** This committee ia fittingly constituted. Secretaries Weeks, Work and Wallace are the three members of the federal power commission which has general administrative control over all water .power sites on the public lands and reservations, existing national parks excepted. Mr. Weeks, aa secretary>«f. war, is Interested in public roads, is in chaise of the national military parks and Is-* the author of the Weeks act, under which hase.-- been made extensive forest purchases in the White mountains and the Appalachians. Doctor Work, aa secretary of the interior, controls the National Park service, the general .land office, the office of Indian affairs, and the bureau of education. Secretary Wallace is in control of, the forest service .which administers the national forests; and the bureaus of biological survey, public roads and plant industry. Secretary Hoover has charge of the bnrean of fisheries and is officially interested In mining and transportation. Moreover be Is president of the National Parks' association, an unofficial nationwide organization of nature lovers Influential in directing the activities of the "National Park Army." Col. Theodore Roosevelt of the Navy department Is a nature lover by inheritance. He ia executive chairman. Colonel Roosevelt appointed an asalstlng committee consisting of representatives of the executive departments mentioned and Charles Sheldon 'CDOHS* i^oosjfvjgrr of the Boone and Crockett club and Robert Sterling Yard, executive secretary of the National Parks association. In response to Invitations by Colonel Roosevelt, delegates representing 128 organizations" of many kinds from coast to coast met in the auditorium of the National museum, effected a permanent organization and formulated a policy. The government Is represented by the President's committee. Its function is to determine an administrative policy and to serve as a medium between the^eople and the administration. It will aBsume non-; of the responsibilities of the people, who will continuo. through their own organizations, to deal directly with congress. It does, however, insure the co-operation of the various departments of the administrative branch of the federal government--a thing tlint has been unfortunately lacking. It will also help In bringing both the administrative and legislative branches in accord with the popular will. An advisory council of one hundred represents the people.- It will gene between conference* An executive committee, to serve between meetings o! the advisory council is made up as foilows: . Chauncey J. Hamlin, New York, politician, \Vorld war veteran, expert In civic service, president American Association of Museums, ehairman. Dr. John C. Merriam, Washington, paleontologist, educator, administrator, author and vice pre* ident National Academy cf Sciences, vice chairman. Dr. George E. Scott, Illinois, treasurer and chairman finance committee. Dr. Vernon L. Kellogg, Washington, worldfamous zoologist and author, permanent secretary and chairman of division of educational relations National Research council, secretary. Walter F. Martin, Washington. John Barton Payne, Illinois, president 1911-24 board of South Park commissioners, Chicago, former judge, cabinet officer and director general of railroads, chairman Americau Red Cross. Charles Sheldon, Washington, author, explorer, big game hunter, Boone and Crockett club. Mrs. John Dickinson Sherman, Colorado, the the field of outdoor t i o n a n d c o n s e r v a t i o n through teaching an understanding and love of nature. "It Is the intention of the advisory council to request other national organizations to make similar surveys In the field of the social significance of outdoor recreation, its relation to child life, health, industrial workers, rural recreation needs, athletic games, sports, etc., and also in the field of the value of natural resources to outdoor recreation with particular reference to forests, game and fur-bearing anl- JteAT'jf.i+X'. uials, fish, birds, plants, jfy,?«si flower*, waters, etc. "It Is believed that through the close co-operation of such private agencies and government agencies, federal, state, county and ipunlclpal. It will be possible eventually to evolve a national plan for outdoor recreation, In which eacjj agency, public and private, will have and play its part to the end that our country will be a happier, pleafcinter and healthier place In which to live." There will be plenty for the new organization to do. There is, for Instance, the matter of upholding the standard of the national parks. A feature of national park policy first promulgated by Secretary Lane In 1918 and confirmed by remarkable demonstrations of popular sentiment Is that the uatlonal park system as now constituted shall n°t be lowered In standard, dignity and prestige by the inclusion of areas which express In less than the highest terms the particular class or kind of exhibit which they represent." It was the attempt of Secretary Albert B. Fall to abrogate this policy that largely led to his resignation. Well, the pigeon-holes of the public lands committees of the two houses of congress are full of bills for new national parks. These Include the Nicollet In Wisconsin, Grand Coulee and Yakima In Washington, Mean In Arkansas and Ozark In Missouri. There are bills for "a national park" in Georgia, Virginia and Pennsylvania.

Senator Walsh of Montana has for four years been attempting to force through his bills for the (Jamming of Yellowstone lake in the Yellowstone. perhaps the new organization can prevefit the happening, of a thing like this: June 7, the last day of the last session of congress, the general deficiency bill in the senate came up,for final enactment. It contained the following appropriations for the national parks: Mesa Verde, $3,000; Mount fialnler, $1:5.000; Rocky Mountain, $20.171--all on . .. • . j <• j, -x_--.ji.Miit nf < lood damages; road construction, un- "National Park Lady, director American authorization of congress. $1,000,000.

Recommendations are made on many vexed questions. It is too long, however, for even a summary here. But it does serve a polite notice upon Uncle Sam that there must be harmony among the departments, especially between the interior and agricultural; and that the pollution of waters must be stopped. The confrrenee endorses nature study in the schools, for which the General Federation of Women's Clubs Is campaigning, and the training ofnature teachers in normal school mid colleges. And there Is a whole volume In this first resolution: "Resolved, that outdoor recreation furnishes opportunity to gain abounding health, strength, wholesome enjoyment, understanding and love of nature, good-fellowship and keen sportsmanship . and, above all, has a direct beneficial influence on the formation of sturdy character by developing those qualities of self-control, endurance under hardship, reliance on self, and co-operation r-wlth others In team work which are so necessary to good citizenship."
