progress that is being made there in developing the of dis
playing the attractive features of the In things of natural
grandeur aue Utah is the favored spots

building of fine roads, designed give the points of
scenic worth Utah has not the population but II has the und

the duty of those who have the shaping the states destiny
make provision for securing of that wealth the end Of
proper development of Utah's aesthetic treasure.
Speaking Of the question aRue said what being done

be insured to Utah by fixing and for all the states right
reasonable share in from natural they
developed In other these natural
eopd the should grow h-so that the burden Of

teries of traffic for industry but that would constitute means of
access to the states spots of SURPRISING natural grandeur For

There other that could be developed by the building
Of good roads that would afford scenery surprising quality
