C. G. Thomson, speaking today at the uumuer or commerce luncheon, says Monday's Grants Pass Courier. "Col onel Thomson, who has charge of. the Crater Lake National park, stated that the factor which killed appropriations was the lack of harmony between mu-l niclpalities and urged that southern Oregon work as a unit to get the things desired for the two national re sorts. "Tourist travel Is increasing every year, stated Colonel Thomson, and showed where the traffic to the Cra ter park was 57 per cent greater in 1923 than during the year previous Few Oregonians have seen the lake or the caves, he said, and are unable to tell strangers anything about them, which creates a bad impression among the tourists, the forest rangers are instructed to do everything possi ble lor the travelers. They go on the theory that the tourist Is always right unless he is so wrong that be must be arrested."
