placed on the movements of the
Duke of Buccleuch, 46, who was
removed last May as lord steward
Of the royal household as part of
the widespread drive against fifth

II was revealed last night that
the duke. one OF Great Britain's
richest landowners. had been re-
moved from his palace post. IN
I'll the home office denial was
issued, it had been reported that
the duke, related by marriage to
the royal family, had been con-
fined to his estate in Scotland. He
has been succeeded as lord steward
by the Duke of Hamilton and
Brandon.
Dismissal of the duke on the
grounds of his sympathy with Nazi
doctrines was accomplished quietly
when Winston Churchill became
prime minister, although the dukes
position was not a cabinet appoint
ment.
II was emphasized that the duke
never has done anything to UNI
dermine Britain's war effort, that
he wants Britain to win and that

remove him from his royal house.

Buccleuch is banking associate
of Queen Elizabeth's father. His
sister married the Duke of Glou-
cester, brother of King George.
The duke, owner of about 460. 900
acres, is reputed to receive an in
come of $1,000,0OO a year from
his estates.

of the park was forwarded. Eu-
gene Ricksecker, civilian engineer
in the employ of the U. S. army,
was commissioned in 1904 to sur
vey a route to the mountain.
Begun in 1906, the road was
completed in 1912, when the first
automobile reached Paradise val
ley in August. Driven by Lynn
Miller, the car had Z. S. Hall, then
park superintendent and now park
commissioner, and Edward Allen
as passengers.
That same year in October,
President William Howard Taft,

park while in office, went to

1t $50 housekeeping cabins, which
replaced tents. When Yakima park
was opened in 1881, the company
built Sunrise lodge there, in addi-
ton to 200 cabins. And today the
park company maintains buildings
and property which represent an
investment of $3.50, 900.
Modernization and extension of
roads within the park started in
1928, when there were but 35
miles OF extremely narrow roads
as a nucleus. though they had cost
approximately half a million dol
lars.
The system of control, which
limited traffic to one direction at
a time, was banished In 1925. In
1924, the last year controls were
used. the road was one-way be-
tween Narada falls and Paradise
valley.
Seven Millions Expended
Since 1925. $6.741,511 have been
spent in improving and extending
roads, discounting annual mainte-
nance costs. With the opening Of
the new east side road next sum-
mer there will be 67.4 miles of
roads. In addition. there are road
contracts in force totaling $780,
SOS. II is planned to complete the
Stevens canyon road In 1914 as
the final link in a 95-mile boule-
ward along three sides OF the
mountain.
Present roads now include the
Nisqually road. 20 miles from the
entrance to Paradise valley, which
was begun in 1906, completed in
1912, improved and widened In
1929. and macadsm surfaced in
1897.
Carbon river road. six miles In
the northwest park corner, COM
pleted in 1925.
West side road, 1o.1 miles, was
started in 1928 and completed to
its present terminus in 1881. II
begins inside the NLsqually en-
trance and extends northward in
side the western park boundary.
The White River road, 15.2 miles
from point on Chinook pass At
the northeast park corner TO Yak

in 1891.

year was that of 1888. when $751;
S76 persons visited.
Previous to 1916. when the Raj
