Excerpt from Report of the Director of the National Park Service to the Secretary of the Interior, for the Fiscal Years, 1929-1932, and the Travel Season, 1929-1932 Sir: In submitting to you this thirteenth annual report of the National Park Service, I wish to express, on my own behalf and that of our field officials, deep appreciation of the interest which you have taken in the national parks. Your visits to several of these reservations during the past summer, and particularly your meeting the superintendents at the Opening of the Yellowstone con ference, have been a source of inspiration and encouragement to us all. As has been the practice in past years, this report of conditions in the National Park Service and progress of work in general covers the fiscal year ended June 30, 1929, although for comparative pur poses in connection with travel statistics the travel year has been considered as ending September 30. Progress of road and Other construction work, which is done on a seasonal rather than a fiscal year basis, is also reported for the year ended September 30. Again all travel records have been broken, with a total amount of visitors to the national parks and monuments. Of these, visited the parks, an increase of over 1928. The monument total of visitors was more than recorded last year. Among the visitors were the members of the subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee, handling appropriations for the Department of Agriculture, accompanied by Forester Stuart, head of the United States Forest Service. This party visited Yellow stone, Mount Rainier, Yosemite, Zion, and Bryce Canyon National Parks. The Park Service was glad to cooperate in making arrange ments inside the parks for the party. While the trip was not made in connection with park matters, we appreciated the interest which the members took in coordinating Park Service problems with those of the Forest Service. I regret that the Senate Public Lands Com mittee was unable to make the park trip planned, and hope that they may be able to arrange it for next summer under the leadership of Senator Nye.
