Coast Governor Says Yuma
Road Must Be Kept Open

A demand that the state highway
through the Yuma Indian reservation
in California, across the Colorado
River and west of Yuma, Arizona, be
held open to traffic and threat that
unless the road is kept open to travel
ers the state will cease work and
abandon the thoroughfare, are con-
tanned in statement issued by Cover
nor Richardson.
The statement sent by the governor
follows:
"This (the Yuma road) is one Of
the transcontinenta1 roads between
California and the other states. 1t
is of vital Importance to the people
of Imperial valley, California, and
eastern states. 1t should be kept
open, but if petty officials without
legal warrant can close this road for
whimsical reasons, then work on the
road should Immediately stop and the
road itself be abandoned. | have great
confidence in the sheriff, district at
torney and supervisors of Imperial
county and feel sure they can cope
with the situation"

Grand Canyon Roads
Are I'm Good Condition

A total of 4,769 people visited the
Grand Canyon National Park during
the month of April, according to stat
istics just released by the National
Park Service of the Interior Depart
ment. OF this number, 3,917 came by
rail, and 852 made the trip in 297
automobiles. Autos were registered
from 33 states and the District of
CGlumbia.
Travel figures show a loss of 1,122
visitors compared to April 1923, or
about 1870. This is due entirely to
rigid quarantine measures on the
Arizona California border, which has
practically stopped all east-bound
motorists, who form the bulk of auto
travel at this time of the year.
Quarantine regulations have caused
loss in the number of rail visitors.
Under these regulations, the only
place where through east-bound ira
vellers are allowed to leave the train
is at Grand Canyon However, all
such passengers must subject them
lselves to disinfection upon arrival at
the above station. Prospective visit
ors should not allow this process to
deter them making the trip, as it is
very simple, taking only few minutes
of time and causing practically no in
convenience.
Approach roads to the park from
the National Old Trails Highway at
mMaine, Williams, Arizona are in good
condition. There is no snow at the
Grand Canyon, and all of the Canyon
Drives, including the Hermit Rim
Grandview, Desert View and the In
dian Reservation Trip across the
Painted Desert to the Navajo and Hop
Reservations, are now open to all
classes of travel. All roads are il
better condition than during any pre-
yious season, and all of the above trips
can be made in ease and comfort
