National Park opened to the public for
eight weeks this Fall. campaign to
secure waivers of contracts between
land owners and the State Conservation
Commission. guaranteeing the erection
of fences and passes for cattle before

A committee which met and organ
lied Saturday night will interview al
the land owners this week in an effort
to secure the waivers.
When they transferred the rlghts-o1-
way for Skyline Drive. the land owners
received the contracts for protection OF
live stock. If they insist upon the erec-
ton of the fences and underpasses al
this time. the expense involved will be
too great to justify the opening OF tne
drive for eight weeks. Conservation
Commission officials said.
However, if the land owners VII!
waive their rights and agree not to sue
the commission for damages to live
stock. the drive will BE- opened.
Live stock worth approximately $751;
