RESPONSE OF THE PRESIDENT 683 



sure that, before we put this land on the auction block, that the serv- 

 ants and representatives of the people themselves will have a chance 

 to look at it and evaluate it, and see how it can be used in our public 

 system for recreation and natural beauty down through the years. 



I want you to remember one thing I say, if you don't remember 

 anything else, that we ought to be very careful to see that every 

 single acre of this land that can be used, that now we have public 

 title to, is turned over to the national system, or the State system, or 

 the local system, or some public system, so that it is maintained for 

 our children, and our children's children. 



I want you to get in touch with your Congressmen, and with your 

 governor, and with your mayor, and with the rest of the people, and 

 get that job done for me. 



Thank you.
