may be made available for the people. I am sure that the Presi- 

 dent, whom I know very well, he being a classmate and warm 

 friend of mine for forty years, and whose idealism and love for 

 the people are too well-known to be questioned, would heartily 

 approve of this appropriation. It means large things for the 

 people in the near future if the interests of this Park are properly 

 conserved. 



I trust you will not consider it an intrusion for me to urge upon 

 you the favorable consideration of this recommendation of Sec- 

 retary Lane. 



Sincerely yours
