Points Out Way
LOOKING TO FUTURE
Declares That Eventually
Every State Will Have At
tractive National Park

There are many arguments IN faV-
or of the establishment Of Roose-
velt Memorial National Park in the
3adlands of North Dakota, according
20 A. II. Yoder of Grand Forks, vice
president of the state association. In
a letter to county committeeman, he
says in part;
Every state will eventually have
an attractive national park. Four
teen states and two territories are
now provided with federal park FACT
lities. These are: Maine, the only
one in the eastern portion of the
country, Arkansas which has the old
IS, national park, Arizona, Alaska,
California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho,
Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma,
Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Wash
ineton and Wyoming.
Sully Hill Park
In 1904, North Dakota was given
Sully Hill National Park, containing
$50 acres, which the Director of Ma
tional Park Service of Washington,
%. C. now recommends be changed to
a game preserve under the control of
the biological survey, department Of
agriculture. This plan gives US our
chance to ask for real National
Park commensurate with the size and
importance of the state.
ZIP to this time, national parks
have been located in the western
states chiefly because of the free
land available. Our state still has
about a hundred thousand acres of
government land in the Bad Land
region and a considerable acreage of
land which has been filed on but not
proved up. The latter is subject to
cancellation and when reclaimed will
double the amount available for park
Purposes. Some land will need to be
acquired by purchase. Data is now
being compiled by the Commission to
show the ownership of all land in the
proposed park area.
In Scenic Regions
National parks are located in
scenic regions, Yosemite, Yellowstone
Glacier, SequOia. North Dakota pos
seSseS one unique physlcaI feature
the Bad Lands of the Little Missouri
the like of which does not exist
elswhere in the United States. It is
attractive enough to command the
approval of the national park author
titles and satisfy tourists.
"The location of the proposed par(
is midway between the lake region o.
Minnesota, already famous and visit
ed every year by thousands of tour
lists, and Yellowstone, Glacier, ane
other western national parks. The
region is crossed by the N. P. rail
way and is touched on the east b!
the 500 road on the north by thu
Great Northern, and on the south b.
the Milwaukee. All Of these road:
have given hearty endorsement O
our plan. The park region is also il
the direct line of the three nationa
trunk ays-Yellowstone, Park
Highway, and the Roosevelt Trail
In fact, no park has been created o
proposed with such fine travel &C
commodations."

ing in Some Places Told
BY Kitchen
WORSE IN FUTURE?

A rush of harvest hands to North
Dakota before they were needed, the
resultant failure to get employment
from farmers to hold them until the
crops were ready for harvest, and the
effort Of various forces to balance the
situation so as to keep fair wage
level, are among the causes for the
labor shortage which has, and does
now, exist at some places in the
state, according to Joseph A. Kitchen,
Commissioner Of Agriculture and La
Dor, in charge of the state free en-
ployment service. Mr.. Kitchens dag
nosis of the situation expressed in
a letter to Clyde L. Nelson. special
labor agent, Minot.
eve have carefully read your let
ter Of the 22nd regarding labor short
age in your vicinity" said Mr.. Kit
chen, on September "a. eve sent
out letter sometime ago stating the
condition was partly caused by the
premature $500 railroad rate. This
brought thousands of men to North
Dakota when there was no work and
we advised farmers it would be bet
ter to employ men if possible and
hold them until needed as we felt
there would be scarcity Of laborers
at threshing time. Mr.. Mil
10y phoned me the 18th that your ter
ritory was short 500 men. We were
short through the state, so l phoned
the free employment office at Min
neapolis and they advised me they
would do everything possible to help
Us out but that they had calls for
all the men they could send out at
$500 per day and transportation
paid. Extensive publicity of a large
shortage of threshing help, especial
ly at such time as this when Min
neapolis can send men out at such
high wages, would cause those al
ready employed to think how need
full their services are and would lead
them to aim for higher wages. We
want the laboring man to get all the
| justice he deserves, but we do not
feel our people can pay much over
$500 per day.
