War Effort Aided Timber and minerals from park areas have been used in the war industries of the nation when not obtainable on other lands, Mr. Leavitt said. Spruce from the Olympics for aircraft and metals from Death Valley were singled out as examples oi this wartime cooperation. The pre-war attendance of parks which attained a peak of 22 million was reduced to less than S per cent in 1943 because of difficulties of transportation, the speaker said. Use of these recreational areas by the armed forces is bringing attendances up this year. . Mr. Leavitt expressed the opinion that the highly contro versial Jackson Hole area is rightly a part of the Grand Te ton park and the effort of the interior department to secure these lands for recreational use was Justified. The extension of grazing areas in such lands has been a policy of the park serv ice. For All People In summing up the work of the National Park Service, Lea vitt reminded Rotarlans that these parks are set aside as "museum pieces for the use, pleasure and inspiration of all the people. He explained the policy of the Interior department in regard to administration of recreational areas, in which na tional interest must always be the primary objective. Some of the public has not recognized the fundamental basic law which applies to established recreation al parks and monuments and which precludes commercial ex ploitation. Such commercial use would defeat the aim of keeping vacation areas in their natural Medford Church of the Nazarene ' Holly at First The Big Texan Revival 1st" RevT b7.
