S1,5O5,729 in 1887 and has
asked for an additional $780,
900 for travelling expenses in
1888. The Home Owners Loan
Corporation spent for travel
expense in 1886, $1,762,35S; in
1887, $1,750,000 even, and in
1888 are asking congress to APP
propriate as much as $780,
900.
Facetiously he remarked,
"the Farm Credit Bureau has
spent so much in travel it ought
to be called a travel bureau
1t spent 81, 653,619 in 1886 and
S2,O7O,S41 in 1887 for travel.
Although their new mortgage
loans in 1886 were 5S.1 per
cent lower than in 1885 and
S5.5 per cent lower than in
1884, their travel expense is
getting larger each year. Last
year they made 65,2S1 mort
gage loans to a., 949 individ-
uals. More than half their
total appropriation was spent
last year for travel. The ST.
O7O,841 represents an expendi-
ture of more than SAG in travel
expense for each individual to
whom a loan was made.
'Mr. Secretary Wallace's de-
partment tops the travel eX-
penditures of the War depart
ment, the Navy department and
the Post Office department.
The travel expense in 1886 was
S7,7O2,141. In 1887 it was
S7,701,7O2. The budget re-
quests for 1888 are $6,767, 1874.
"From the contents of the
latest gem of literature on soil
conservation, | see they have
been securing the hinterlands
of China, the Punjab Plains of
India, the veldt of South Africa,
the islands of Java and Sum-
atra and several other remote
places to find out how they do
things there. They have made
studies where the rainfall is as
much as 270 inches a year.
Undoubtedly they will use
these studies to determine just
what should be done to rectify
conditions in the dust bowl
area of the Great Plains.
while all these gems of
literature were being prepared,
the soil conservation service
had run up a travel expense
for 1886 amounting to SOIL
105. By 1887 they had in
creased the travel expense to
$1,153,869. For 1888 they are
asking for $89O,934 of the tax
payers money for travel ex-
pense."
According to Congressman
Knutson anyone wishing to see
the world should apply for
work in the soil conservation
department. The government
employees are not only seeing
America first on a large scale
but are searching remote
places. Much of the foreign
travel no doubt is by scientific
experts who at times have
justified such OUTLAWS for in
vestigation, thinks the Mime
apolis Journal.
Figures on government eX-
penditures in these days of
alphabetical activities mean
little or nothing to the ordinary
reader. We are in the habit of
hearing of so many millions
being spent for this, that and
the other, that the mere trifle
of $206,000,000 spent for
travelling expenses fails to
cause a ripple on the placid
surface. However, when it is
stated that the travelling ex-
penses for the fiscal years of
1886, 1897 and 1888, amounted
to more than what was spent
in sending the A. E. F. to

new PARKS SURVEY
BEGUN BY SERVICE
National Inventory of Potential
Recreational Areas An
nounced by Ickes.

A national inventory of potential
park and recreational areas in the
United States as a basis for immedi-
ate and long-term planning to meet
public recreational needs was an
nounced today by Interior Secretary
Ickes.
The study, most far-reaching of its
kind ever attempted in the country, is
an outgrowth of cooperation between
the c. C. c. and the States through
which hundreds of State parks and
recreation areas have been developed
since 1888.
All but 10 States have replied al
ready to Ickes' appeal for co-opera-
ton in the forthcoming study, and
the Interior Secretary, who is head
also of the National Parks Service, is
confident OF 100 per cent cooperation.
Four regional offices of the Park Serv-
ice from which the study will be di-
rected are located in Richmond Va;
Omaha, Nebr.; Oklahoma City and
San Francisco
Each regional area will be sub
divided to facilitate the work of a
national inventory. Future popula-
ton trends will be studied and recrea-
tional areas reclassified on the basis
of changing conditions of social, agri-
cultural and industrial life.
1ckes emphasized that the study
looks to the formulation of national
recreation plan which will be "liv-
Ing, changing program adapting it.
self to the needs of the people in the
future as well as the present"
BY Summer the National Park Serv-
Ice hopes to complete the first phases
OF the study.

OCEAN AIR SERVICE
ASSISTANCE URGED
Kennedy Asks Congress Aid
to ForestaII Control by
Foreign interests.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Chairman Joseph P. Kennedy Of
the Maritime Commission today urged
Congress to give prompt financial aid
to the development and operation Of
transoceanic air service to pre- sent 1t
from being controlled by foreign in
terests."
Testifying before the House Mer-
chant Marine Committee on legisla-
tion recommended by the commission
for rehabilitation Of this country's
merchant marine. Mr. Kennedy advo-
Gated immediate assistance for across
the-ocean aviation "as = new aid to
the foreign commerce Of the United
States"
Prompt Action Urged.
Present and future economy die
tates prompt action" he said. AS
ststance to q small degree now. before
foreign airlines have pre-empted the
field as they threaten to do, will un-
doubtedly firmly establish American
operators and prevent transoceanic air
service from being controlled by for
eign interests as has previously been
the case in steamship service and in
ternational cable service"
Turning to the merchant marine
proper, Mr.. Kennedy declared there
was need for immediate legislation
to create . mediation board to handle
labor disputes in the industry.
Unless something can be done to
reduce interunion friction, to increase
the efficiency Of crews and to restore
order and discipline aboard our ships,
all Of the Governments efforts to de-
velop a strong American merchant
marine will be futile" Mr.. Kennedy
asserted.
Comments on Labor Relations.
Labor relations in the shipping in
dustry, he added, have long been
characterized by an unenlightened At
titude on the part Of both employer
and employe."
Mr.. Kennedy interrupted hts pre-
pared statement to suggest an author
ization fox the commission to allocate
q percentage Of ship construction to
Pacific Coast shipyards. He said it
was in the interest of national defense
to maintain adequate shipyard facil-
| tiles on the Western Coast.
