INDICATES NEEDS FOR
MOUNT RAINIER PARK
Supt. Aliens Report Says
Roads and Trails Should
Be Improved.

Many improvements are needed at
Mount Rainier National Park, according
to the report of Supt. Ethan Allen, Just
made public by the Interior Department.
The superintendent, first of all, thinks he
should have an automobile to facilitate
his work. For this he asks $3.50, and
then he asks $500 for motor truck to
haul freight from the railroad to various
points IN the park.
improvements In the roads and trails
in the park also are requested. For the
care and upkeep of the present govern
Inent road in the park the superintendent
reports that $3.50 Is required. But, he
continues. this amount will not cover the
rebuilding OF several bridges. which Is
deemed essential. This work. II prop
erly done, will cost at least $4,000 addi-
tional.
For Systematic Plan.
"A systematic program of road improve
Enent and road extension should be inaug-
urated." says the superintendent. Work
Of this nature can be carried on for an
average OF about five months in each
year. This work should be paid out In
progressive units on which q definite
amount could reasonably be expected 10
be made available each year until full de-
yelopment Is accomplished"
The superintendent recommends that a
suitable dwelling be constructed for him.
While he says that building which may
be made to serve may be erected fol
$3.50. ''one more In keeping with tn,
surroundings would cost from $1,000 to
$4,000"
In this report the new superintendent
reminds the Secretary of the Interior that
the United States has not complied with
the section, in the act ccdiag the park
10 the United States which provides tina,
jurisdiction shall not vest until the United
States notifies the Governor of Washing
ton that ii assumes police or military
jurisdiction over the park.
