request for a government %appropria-
ton for the building of a fine driveway
over the forest reserve and mountains
to Santa Fe, a distance of about forty
miles. The government maintains a
road I6O miles long through the Vel
lowstone park at a cost of $3.50 900 a
year, and ii Is believed II the matter
were brought before the government,
II might be possible for New Mexico to
receive such a road. The road would
give the large tourist travel to Las
Vegas and Santa Fe somewhere to go,
and would bring thousands of people
here every year. Inns would spring up
along the way and help develop the
country. besides furnishing recreation
for everybody and adding to the at
traction of the grand climate with
which New Mexico is blessed. A ter
ritory. like an individual, seldom re-
ceiyes anything without asking for it.

gress ask for it? hfsttF
