Park Chief Lauds Imperial County
Desert as Most Scenic, Historic
Area Of Kind in All Of California

THE desert area of Imperial and
adjacent counties has more gen.
uine scenic and historic interest
than any other area in California"
This statement was made iNsEl
Centre Thursday by Guy L. Flem-
ing, district superintendent of the
California park division, who is
studying proposed increases in ANA
Desert State park by addition of
sections of Imperial and San Diego
county federal lands to it.
Il have been working on this
plan for a comprehensive desert
state park for IL years and have
visited every section many times"
Fleming said. Each time 1 visit
the desert I find it more and more
fascinating, more and more inter-
esting and important. It should
be kept for posterity to study and
enjoy"
The desert park was planned by
Frederick Law Olmstead, interna-
tionally known landscape engineer,
who was adviser of the state of
