Communications Bor Road Insld Rim ' A fund of one million dollar ha bean made available for the con etructlon of a new road around the rim of Crater Lake. During 1031 It waa built from the publlo camp ground to the Diamond Lake road; In 1933 It will be extended to The Wine Olaaa and In 1933 to Kerr Notch. In 1934 It la propoaed to complete It and the educational ad Tl.ory board aeem to favor con tructlon from Kerr Notch down Band crwk to Lost creek, then up to Sun Notch, down to park head quarter and up to the rim. To thl I am bitterly opposed and auggcet the following plan: Com' menoa conatructlon at the low point Immediately weat of Oarfleld Peak, thence Inilda the rim to the base of Kerr Notch, at the water's edge, four mile distant, Instead of 13 aa at present, on a four per cent maxi mum grade instead of ten. Then bore a tunnel on approximately five per cent grade, to the rim road, about half a mile distant, using all debris to fill In shallow water for turning places, parking and boat houses. With such a road In op eration, Instead of one per cent of visitor going to th water there will be 100 per cent. The objection made to this road la that It will mar the landscape. Well, o whom does the landscape belong? Every visitor Is equally Interested with vsry other American cltleen In thl park and shall they be deprived of Its use by a few men clothed with a little brief authority and possessed of a dainty theory? When early road were being built, men who could not comprehend present and future need, wasted MOO.000 of publlo money on auch roads, all of which had to be re built. Are we to bsve a repetition of this and ahall men of pink the orle be permitted to enforce them, thus eliminating utility with Idle dreams? WILL O. 8TERL.
