MEN
 MEET AT SACRAMENTO

With the close of the annual con- vention of the National Park-to-Park Highway association recently held in Sacramento, California, comes the good news that the delegates there gathered resolved through resolution No. Is that "it is the sense of this convention that the integrity of the principle of single routing should be maintained"
 By this resolution the convention re-affirmed our position in the defin- ite location of the National Park-to- Park highway as made at the first annual convention in 1920 without change in routing or change in pol icy.
 This is evidence that the associa- ton is permanent and not subject to a change by every shift of the wind, and should remove all fear of any change in the routing. It may be ex- pected that, having stood the test of these years no change will ever take place. This will no doubt give encour- agement to county and state highway departments in completing the sec tions of the master scenic highway of America not yet completed. AS fur ther evidence that Flagstaff is for tunate in being on this great highway, the following statement made by W. B. Lewis, superintendent of Yosem- ite Park and personal representative of MT. Stephen T. Mather, director of national park service, the man who first proposed connecting all western parks with one good highway, may be interesting:
 "This is the greatest road project in the world and is going to have a far reaching effect, and deserves your co-operation from that standpoint. assure you that whatever results are, so long as they are harmonious and you arrive at conclusion that is for the best benefit of the public you will have the backing of the government through the department of the inter- for and the national park service"
 MT. Lewis brought to the conven- tion a number of official maps from recent issue of the department of the interior showing the National Park-to-Park highway in color, evil dencing further proof of the fine CO., operation given by the national park service from the beginning of the or ganization.
 Mir. W. Gillette Scott of California also said that he believed this to be the biggest project in the world, nat ional in it's character and national in its scope; that it will soon have the co-operation of the entire nation and the admiration of the entire world.
