A bill in Congress which
would provide Federal grants to
states to finance special state
fisheries research programs and
fisheries rehabilitation and de-
velopment projects has been en-
dorsed by Maryland Gov. J..
Willard Tawes.
The bill, introduced at the
first session of the 87th Con-
gress, would amend the Salton-
stall-Kennedy Act, which now
makes available funds from i'm
port duties collected on certain
foreign fishery products, by pro-
viding additional funds from the

Tawes said:
1.-THE intent of this bill is high
ly commendable, and a measure
is clearly needed to provide Fed
eral aid to the states having
commercial fisheries resources
affected by foreign production
and competition"
Tawes suggested, however,
that changes be made in the pro-
posed formula for apportioning

The Development Of the Maryland Park System

funds has not been responsible
for the failure to undertake
needed development. Even
worse, funds have been appro-
priated by the Legislature for
the construction of facilities in
our parks which have not been
expended by the Department of
Forest and Parks, even though
such funds have been available
for use for a period of years.
At the present time, there are
actually 66 projects in this cate
CORY, including badly-needed
improvements at Deep Creek
Lake, Elk Neck, and Swallow
Falls, with an unexpended bal
ance totaling nearly one million
dollars. 1t should be pointed
out that this money is made
available through bond issues,
and the State must pay the in.
terest on these bonds whether
the money is used or not.
A further example of the UNI
imaginative thinking of the De-
partment of Forests and Parks
is the action taken two years
ago to double certain charges
at our State Parks. This met
with such opposition from the
general public that overall park
attendance has badly declined,
and there has been no appre-
ciable increase in revenue. Ger
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1961-12-21

taiTlly a more construction ap-
proach would have been to in
crease the facilities in our Parks
to attract more people, which
would have automatically in
creased the revenues without
doubling the charges. This in
crease in charges for the use
of our Parks not only was a
disservice to the individual ia
miles of our State, but also
discouraged organized civic
groups from using our Parks.
Lack of Vision Evident
The haphazard and limited
efforts which have been made
toward park development in
Maryland over the last decade
is evidence of a startling lack
of vision and fore sight by the
Department of Forests and
Parks and a failure of execu-
tive direction by the Governors
involved. AS far back as 1852,
the State Planning Commission
prepared a master plan for our
State Parks. With very few
exceptions this plan has been
completely ignored.
In 1861, after two years of
inactivity and only after strong
pressure was exerted by the
Legislature, Governor Tawes
finally appointed a Commission
to revise the 1852 master plan.

the funds among the states.
Under that formula, had the
bill been enacted at the last SEES
sion, Maryland would have been
eligible to receive $182,000, or
3.42 per cent of the S5,321,O 900
fund.
Tawes pointed out that the
formula of apportionment does
not make allowance for "the po-
tential of the state for fishery
production" and does not appear
to provide assistance where
the need may be greatest"
Under the formula funds are
allocated on the basis of the
average of the value of raw fish
landed in each state, regardless

The postwar population ex-

Maryland and the increased
hours of leisure time available
to the average citizen of our
State emphasize the urgent need
for the development and expan-
sion of recreational facilities
throughout Maryland. While
surrounding States have been
making great strides in provid-
ing adequate recreational facil-
tiles for their citizens, little ef-
fort has been made in Maryland
to undertake a stepped-up de-
velopment program for State
parks.
Examples of the kind of prog
ress which our neighboring
states have been making in this
area are numerous. Pennsyl-
vania has adopted an acceler-
ated program of State park de-
velopment to provide major
park within a radius of 25 miles
from any point within the State.
West Virginia also is making
progress to improve their park
system, and Delaware, Virginia
and Connecticut have been ex-
tremely active.
It is in development of parks
and recreational areas which
are already a part of our State
Park system that Maryland has

York and Pennsylvania, recog-
nized as outstanding leaders in
this phase of park development,
place major emphasis on the i'm
poundment of water to provide
swimming, boating and fishing
as the principal forms of recre-
alton in their parks. In Mary
land one can drive from the far
regions of Western Maryland in
Garrett County to the shores of
the Chesapeake Bay and find
little in the way of State facili-
ties developed for water recrea-
ton. Yet throughout this area
the Department of Forests and
Parks owns thousands of acres
of woodland which are COM
pletely undeveloped, except for
picnic areas. Many States have
adopted policies of multiple use
of appointments of water that
were developed primarily for
municipal water supply. Little
effort has been made in the
State to use such resources in
Maryland for recreational pur-
poses.
Parks Need Development
A study of our State Budget
demonstrates clearly that the
emphasis of the Department of
Forests and Parks has been
placed on the acquisition of adj
ditional land rather than on the
development of our existing
Parks. Since over 2 million dol
lars has been appropriated for
the department each year for
the past several years, a lack of

But the record of the Tawes

recommendations and sugges-

does not afford much hope for
the future of the park system.

Apple Butter Time

Apple Butter Time
Avenel Farm, the William
Rapley estate on Persimmon
Tree rd., was the place to be
last week when Ladies of St.
Francis converged to produce
apple butter for the St. Francis
Country Kitchen, well known
during house tour weekends in
the Spring.
Mrs. James MacMartin, the
Rapley's daughter. was hostess
at an apple butter party, and
this was a working party, over
time, labor ct al, and no union
cards permitted. AS matter
of fact even child labor was
involved when Billy MacMartin
rated among the hardest work
ing and most capable of the
helpers.
The butter was made in a Is
gallon kettle over a wood fire.
1t was actually a two day af-
fair, because the peelers came
on December 10 and the pre-.
parers on the 18th. And with
the crowd that arrived it is safe
to wager that peels of laughter
scored as much as the apples.
Polly Adams and Mango Nc
Conihe were chief engineers on
the three gear peeler. Chair
man of the country kitchen, Sue
Farnesworth, brought her chill
