APPROPRIATIONS FOR ARIZONA IN
 SUNDRY CIVIL BILL PASSED HOUSE

of these monuments has just been is sued by the National Park Service.
 In the estimates $3,500 was includ- ed for the construction of bridge across the Rio Puerco near Adamana to provide access to the Petrified Ma tional Monument. This river is often impossible because of flood condi- tions and quicksands and many visi- tors are thereby prevented from leav- ing the railroad station after making a long journey to see this forest which has turned to stone. There remains much work to be done in improving the roads and a salaried custodian should be appointed to prevent depre- dations. Last year over 3O,OOO people visited this monument and during the height of the season it 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 prevent.
 I thank the committee for this eX- tremely modest increase because it shows that at least some slight con- sideration is being given to the needs of our national monuments, but hope that in the future something more substantial will be accomplished At least $1,500 on the average should be appropriated for the care of the "A national monuments or total of $36,- 900. The director of the National Park Service has asked for but $27,- 900 ,and I sincerely regret that the Committee on Appropriations did not recommend the full amount for the preservation of these long neglected natural wonders and antiquities.

OLD SPANISH MISSIONS, LANDMARKS
 OF THE EARLY WEST TO BE REVIVED
Splored territory.
 Reach San Francisco

NcdCH SdH TTdHClSCO
 The Spanish forces and the mis- sionaries now set out to rediscover Monterey on special commission from the King of Spain. Portola pushed northward and stumbled onto San Francisco Bay. Eastward the land rose; gently to lofty range of hills, on the north were mountains, now the Diablo range, on the west hills and the water. The priests re- membered that Galvez had promised to name a port after St. Francis of Assis's founder of the Franciscan or der. And the port was named San Francisco.
 The men returned to San Diego, with Monterey yet undiscovered. Again they set out by land and this time Monterey was found. The ship San Antonio ran up the coast with Father Junipero Serra aboard and en- tered the harbor. The Spaniards took possession in the name of their king. Then was founded Mission San Carlos de Monterey. Soon after the mission was removed a short distance to the Carmel River.
 Fl Camino Real was springing into existence, winding, as it does, through the most fertile valleys of the land. At each days march mission was built. San Antonio de Padua was built thirteen leagues from San Man uel, July IA, 1771 and San Gabriel, near Los Angeles, was erected Sep tember 9, 1771, San Luis Obispo sprang into life September 1, 1771. On September IT, 1776, San Francisco began to exist. On the 9th of Octo- Der the mission De Los Dolores de Nuestro Padre San Francisco de Asia was founded in honor of the patron saint of the Franciscans. This mis- sion, known as Mission Dolores, is now standing well preserved in San Francisco.
 Missions Quickly Built.
 Other missions rapidly came into being. There was San Juan Capis- trano, between Los Angeles and San Diego, Mission Santa Clara, Mission San Buenaventura, Mission Santa Barbara, Mission La Purisima Con- cepcion on the Santa Inez river. Mission Santa Cruz and Mission Sole dad, on the Salines river; Mission San Jose, Mission San Juan Bautista, on the San Juan river; Mission San Miguel, on the Salinas river; Mission San Fernando Key, near and norther- ly from Los Angeles, were all estab- lished during the year, of 1797. The follwing year saw the construc- tion of Mission San Luis Key de Francia, thirteen and one-half leagues from San Diego. Mission Santa Inez was built twelve leagues from Santa Barbara in 1894.
 El Camino Real then led across the Golden Gate. Mission San Rafael, north of San Francisco Bay, was built December IA, 1919, and the last of the missions was erected August 25, 1923, at Sonoma and was named Mission San Francisco de Solano.
 The work of reestablishing these missions is now under way. From the archives of Madrid and from the church records left by Father Juni- pero Serra the data has been secured by Father Mestres. All of his know ledge as mission historian, archaeol- ogist and builder is to go into the completion of the great task before him, a task which, when completed, will find the landmarks of California the same as they were when first built along Ell Camino Real
