Today we can furnish a report on how well Uncle Sam is doinc the job of providing facili ties for them on federally-owned land. The two agencies chiefly responsible for this chore are the U.S. Park Service, a part of the department of the interior, and the U.S. Forest, a part of the department of agriculture. (Another agency, the Bureau of Land Mange ment of the interior department, is just now get ting started on recreational development, Dut progress is hardly sufficient yet to justify com ment.) DOTH agencies have embarked on programs of u improving their recreational facilities. The park service's is called "Mission 66" a 10 year program started in 195b in IQfifi r.hns tho nnmo granr is called "Operation Outdoors" a five year program started in 1957. Both are about half-way May-June issue of the izons has reports on Wirth, director of the national park service, and John Sieker, director of the division of recreation and land uses of the forest service. "Mission 66" is doing pretty well. "Opera tion Outdoors"' is coming along, but needs a push '"THE park service expects nearly 5 million campers to use its about 5 per cent more past few years, increases derestimated, and the total may go well above that.) This means some 21,000 campers every day of the camping season, ends. To accommodate these campers, to protect them, to provide facilities for them, and to pro tect the scenic resources (which is a major job of the park service) is a big task. Thus far, 2,956 new campsites have been com pleted, and 2,884 others and improved, or 5,840 out of a total of some 12,000 campsites now existing in. the national parks. The objective is to provide 28,000 campsites by 1966, and the park service expects to complete this goal plus the other objectives of "Mission fab on schedule. THE forest service's lon'f qq wall Q Inner ficulties, first, an unprecedented explosion in the use of the forests by second, the reluctance of enough funds to keep up with the demand. Between 1946 and 1956, for instance, the number of recreation visits to the forests almost tripled from 18.2 million to 52.5 million. "Operation Outdoors" is now at the half-wav mark, and Sieker says, "developed campgrounds, picnic and other recreation sites are receiving adequate policing, cleanup and maintenance. They have never been in better shape, and con tinued progress in this phase of the program is expected. DUT, at the same time, only 8,900 of a total of u 40,000 family units needing rehabilitation by 1962 have been reconstructed. And Sieker savs that a similar lag was reported on winter sports, swimming and other facilities. Original estimates were that 66 million visits would be made annually by 1962. But already it is approaching the 75 million mark, and revised estimates indicated 92 million visits by 1962. This means that, instead of the original target of 40,500 new family units withm the next two years, there will be needed at least 60,000, for a total of 102,000 just to keep up with minimum necessities. And Sieker added : "Actual financing, which has been less than the program called for, has held up expansion and re habilitation. Because of this, over-crowding in national forest campgrounds and picnic sites continues to in crease. At the present time there are almost TWICE AS MANY campers and picnickers in national forest areas as there are facilities to accommodate them safely." "THIS overcrowding leads, not only to disap- vuavvu tlt, UtiVHVbU VHlill.lt CftJlU ilV.lllVlVl Jj but also to fire hazards, destruction of natural surroundings, and the menace of inadequate sanitation. Some of this load must be absorbed (as it is now, to a certain extent) by state, county and city facilities the agencies, incidentally, which keep yelling about the federal government play ing too big a role, and then frequently failing to do the job themselves. , , But the national forests belong to the federal government that is, to all of us. And it is the government s responsibility, not only to protect the forests, but to provide for their use by the people who own the forests. . rESPITE valiant efforts by the forest service, it can't do the job alone and unassisted. If everyone who, at one time or another, uses a forest camp, or a stream or lake or picnic spot in the forest, would let his congressman know that the job must be done, it will be done. If not, it could drag along, too little and too late, with the forests overcrowded, overused, and endangered. They belong to all of us. We should be willincr to see that their caretakers get the tools to do the job of service and protection that the forests need. E.A. . , and due for completion Tho fnrpar sorvi'no's rvn alone now.

Matter of Fact By j0,8Ph THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF IT Washington-The real story of what has passed between Sen. John F. Kennedy of Mas sachusetts and his recent deadly enemy, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota, is con s 1 d e r- ably more in teresting than the crude ver sion in com- To set the stage for this small drama full of nuances it is necessary to note that the Kennedy - Humphrey en mity was one of those briefly nnisonous Dolitical plants which wither fast under the warm wind of expediency. Kennedy now wants Hum phrey's tidy bloc of delegates. Humphrey has the gravest doubts about the movement to draft Adlai Stevenson for the Democratic nomination. He fears that he cannot sell Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas in Minnesota. And he regards the candidacy of Sen. Stuart Symington of Missouri as no better than a souffle that never even started to rise. These circumstances fa vored a post-West Virginia reconciliation, which has oc curred. THE key episode was Ken nedy's approach to Hum phrey. Kennedy musingly In quired whether Humphrey was in the running for the Vice Presidential nomination in 1960, as he was in 1956. Humphrey replied that he had no intention of becoming an active candidate for the Vice Presidency, because he could not risk the damage to his prestige of a further defeat after his misfortunes in the primaries. He confessed, how ever, that if the Vice Presi dential spot were offered to him, he might accept. Kennedy commented that it "helped him" to know what was in Humphrey s mind. And there the matter ended in as near a glow of mutual good will as is likely in such con versations. There was no of fer, there was no commitment. there was no decision. But there was an exploration of terrain, useful and potentially fruitful for both parties. It must be added that the magnetic attraction of the nice little bloc of delegates that Humphrey largely con trols is not trie only influ ence that may persuade Ken nedy to offer Humphrey the Vice Presidency, if he wins the first place on the ticket himself. Clumps of the less devout Stevenson-ites are drifting into the Kennedy camp, especially in California Almost all of them come out with the same message: "We're for you, Jack, but please, please give Hubert sec ond place and reserve the Secretaryship of State for Adlai." TllORE important still, there Is the recent, really ma ter Republican disaster in North Dakota. The horrify ing depth of the farm discon tent was glaringly revealed when this normally rock ribbed Republican state nar rowly elected a Democratic Senator to fill an unexpired term. To be sure, Vice Presi dent Nixon's polls, which showed the Democrat, Rep, Quentln N. Burdick, winning the Senate scat by a hair, also showed North Dakota going for Nixon against Ken nedy by a comfortable mar gin. But North Dakota's cer tain meaning is that Nixon may be In very bad trouble Indeed In the more closely bal anced mid-Western states. If Kennedy is nominated, the choice of Humphrey for the Vice Presidency will maxi mize the Republican difficul ty In the farm stales of the mid-West. It will also maxi mize Kennedy's own difficul ties in the South, which are Menace j Alsop already considerable. None theless, Kennedy may very easily be tempted to try for victory by carrying the large Northern industrial stales and the mid-Western farm states, without worrying too much about the South. It can be said on good au thority that Vice President Nixon, who expects Kennedy to be nominated, also expects Kennedy to follow the exact strategy above-outlined. It can further be said that Nixon and those around him have rejected proposals for going all out to gain enough Nor thern Negro votes to compen sate for the Catholics who will choose Kennedy. In order to go all out, Nixon would vir tually have to advocate a "'force bill," and Nixon does not believe in force bills. HAVING decided against ad vocating a force bill, Nix on hoped to make important Republican gains in the South. This is the strong argument for giving the Republican Vice Presidential nomination to the Kcntuckian, Sen. Thrus ton Morton. If Kennedy is nominated and chooses Hum phrey as his running mate, the betting will be heavy that Nixon wiU pick Morton In- stead . ol trie otner iineiy choice, former Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachu setts. If Kennedy Is nominated In short, we may see the Re publican champion eagerly seeking votes In the normally Democratic South, wnue me Democrat chases votes in the normally Republican mid- West. But if the Democrats give the nod to their other possible nominee, ben. Lyn don B. Johnson of Texas, it will be just the other way around. Such is American politics.

To the Editor: I note that of late some of your corres pondents have come little short of praising Russian com munism. They no doubt get these views from people who have been permitted to visit Russia's front yard. I like the saying: "When a boy's face shines with soap, look behind his cars." It applies to nations as well. The Commies can be quite gracious to visitors on the front lawn. Let us take a squint at the back yard. As a starter, let me quote a few extracts from "Grit's con densation of John Noble's book, "I Was a Slave in Rus sia": . . . "As I lay down that evening I had no Idea that on the following morning would begin a 12-day starving per iod. . . . Men went out of their minds, women prisoners became hysterical. Some Mos lem prisoners chanted their prayers. Then deat:. struck right and left In the prison. Some 700 prisoners had en tered the starvation period. I was one of the 22 or 23 who survived." The above took place In East Germany, Noble was then transferred to a Siberian coal mine. ... "I looked at the bunk' I had been assigned to. It was a Bcgment of a two foot width of long, hard, wooden shelf, one of two shelves, upper and lower, that ran the length of both sides of the barracks. . , , There was no sheet, mattress, pillow or blanket-just a hard wooden slab. ... It was a human jun gle, smelly, over iwdcd." Noble was never tried. He was simply arrested and con demned. When arrested, he weighed 155 pounds, whcn Youth's Letter Tells Cubans Misled Into By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Editor From the outpourings of soil's loiter to his mother comes another side of Cuba's tragedy; ' "The Yitn k e o embassy put up sonic signs to pro tect American pro pcrty, 'is tho moment of their attack is getting n o a r.
