 The annual Bulletin of the Association was published in May. As very 

 few books on mountaineering were published during the year, many 

 books of travel and outdoor life were sent free of charge for the library 

 of each club or society. Many individual members from all parts of 

 the country have called to inspect the large collection of mountaineer- 

 ing books and photographs in the New York Public Library. 



An important feature of the work of the Bureau is co-operation with 

 the National Park Service. First in the hearts of all true mountain- 

 eers is the preservation of our finest mountain regions from commercial 

 ruination. In many ways the future welfare of the nation depends on 

 the protection of our forested watersheds, and on the permanent re- 

 tention of our rich heritage of tree and flower, of bird and animal life. 

 Several of our most wonderful regions have not yet been made national 

 parks ; many of our parks should at once be increased in size ; others 

 should have sufficient appropriation to insure their proper patrol and 

 development. Mountaineers are often the first to visit new regions of 

 wonder and beauty. Is it not their highest privilege to be foremost in 

 their protection ? LeRoy Jeffers, Secretary
