Representative Carl Hayden of Ari'
zona, speaking In the house in support
of the national monument estimate
Of $4,000 asked for by the national
park service. said among other things:
There are "a national monuments
under the jurisdiction of the national
park service, and 1t Is not only vain
but foolish to expect that they can be
administered, protected. maintained,
preserved and improved at an average
annual cost of a little over $500 each,
| as is provided by this appropriation
Of $12,50O. The visitors TO the Casa
Grande ruin increased from 1867 in
1919 to 7,720 In 1920. But $4,000 has
been expended for the repair and ex-
cavntion Of this Great House. built
by prehistoric race of which the
present Indian tribes have no tradi-
ton and which was found as a ruin
by Father Kino, the Spanish explorer,
in 1894. The amount appropriated
will provide practically nothing but
the salary of the custodian.
'Montezumas castle is another ma.
tional monument which is sadly neg
lected and suffering from vandalism.
"a custodian should likewise be up
pointed for the Tumacacorl mission,
which is threatened with destruction
by those who have from time to time

son II is estimated that from one to
two tons of petrified wood was carried
away each day by these tourists, which
the park service was powerless to pre-
vert.

more substantial will be accomplished
AT least 81, 800 on the average should

The SO national monuments may b'

system should embrace important pre-
historic remains, historic landmarks

The Department of Agriculture,
through = the forest service, controls
the national forests. They are de-
voted to grazing and numbering and
contain about 158,O00,OO0 acres. AS
the national parks are created from

the forest service has been developing

In addition TO the 10 national parks
there are seven rational military and
other parks under the control of the
War department: Chickamauga and
Chattanooga, Antietam, Shiloh, Get

There are SO national monuments.
Twenty-four are under the Interior
department, 10 under the Agricultural
department and two under the War
department.
The "a national monuments under

Santa Fe, N. NJ, that opens up the
whole national monument question.
DR.. Hewett's suggestion is contained
in an illustrated article in Art and
Archaeology a magazine published by
the Archaeological Institute Of Amer
lea. In substance II is this:
ITO meet a condition that exists all
over the Southwest, 1t Is suggested
that under national monuments sec
tion Of the act for the preservation
of American antiquities, it would be
feasible to establish national monu-
ments districts, In which all ruins Of
be set out and be protected by the
government. For example, from Mesa
Verde in Colorado and Aztec in New
Mexico to the Colorado river in Utah,
the San Juan valley, including a large
number of tributaries, is n region of
archaeological monuments. 1t seems
timely to suggest to the National
Parks association and to the depart
ments Of government having custO-
dianship of the antiquities on the pub
lie domain, that without withdrawing
large area from settlement, the
most important ruins might be desig-
mated as units in q national monu-
ments district, to be administered by
the national parks service. Parcels
every instance.
'The greater part of these ruins are
on the public domain, and most of
those that are not might in some way
be brought under protection. 1t is
probable that many private owners
would, if the matter were brought to
their attention, donate important sites
TO the nation.
"1he plan proposed for the protec-
tiOn Of the many ruins OF the San
Juan valley would apply equally we'll
TO the Rio Grande, ella and other
sections. The Pajarito plateau, and
the entire Jemez region to the west
are equally rich in ancient ruins.

owned lands, as are old Pecos mission
and lin part) Gran Quivira in New
Mexico, and numerous ruins on school,

and Colorado, system of state monu

to the national monuments plan, anC

migration commissioners told the con
ference Of South Dakota Rural
Agencies at their meeting here. OF
this number, Mr. Aldrich said, about
SO per cent. or 434 cars were moved
from some point east of the Missouri

Of the river also within the state.
Nineteen cars were moved from west
to east within the boundaries of the

Conditions in the older states of
the central west, where the landSboom
hit the hardest as a consequence of
the two or three years Of inflated war

Pierre, S. D., Dec. 20.-The interest
and income apportionment from
school and public lands for this year
will amount to s1,734,510, according
to the announcement made today by
Mort Adams, deputy commissioner in
the department of school and public
lands. This will average, according
to Mr.. Adams, 1896 cents for each
of the 193,a00 persons in the state un-
der school. age. :.
The figure Is slightly less than last
year when the total amounted to L.
799,490, Mr.. Adams says, due chiefly
to the inability of the department to
collect a large part of the outstand-
ing interest during the present criti-
cal financial times. Had this out
standing interest been collected, the
average per pupil would have reached
approximately $40, he said.
Apportionment vouchers will be
