tentatively set for December S.
President Truman is expected to
ofhciate at ceremonies being ar
ranged in connection with recent
establishment of the Everglades Ma
tional Park.
Under an order signed recently by
Interior Secretary Krug, the heart
OF the Everglades region became the
nucleus, of the 28th national park.
Negotiations still are being carried
out for Federal acquisition of lands
which will bring this Federal do
main up to approximately 1000
square miles in Dade, Monroe and
Collier Counties.
The act which made the park
possible specifically stated that the
park area shall be permanently
preserved as a wilderness" and no
developments are to be undertaken
which will interfere with the pre-
servation intact of the unique fora
and fauna and the essential primi-
tive natural conditions now prevail
ing in the area"

In outlining plans for public en-
joyment of the park, the National
Park Service recently pointed out
that there are now few miles of
roads in the area, and that ex-
tension of these will be held to a
minimum.
A recent Park Service news re-
lease said: Much travel within
the park will always be by water,
with the many waterways, especially
in the western portion, offering
travel of extraordinary interest .
One of the early problems of plan
ming the park will be that of de-
termining where accommodations
of various kinds for the visiting
public are likely to be required, and
the kind and extent that will be
needed"
