As to National Parks, contrary to the New York Times' statement, the West has been very liberal in its acquiescence in the creation of Parks. Again, for example, two million acres in Yellowstone Park, with another 100, 000 acres in the newly-created Grand Teton National Park comprise a goodly portion of Wyoming. Westerners appreciate and value and use our parks as much and more than do their eastern brethren.
FOUR HUNDRED MILLION ACRES 183 ...Further, in this day and age neither the western States or their people are seeking to deprive the In- dians of their lands and they do not desire their re- sources "exploited without thought of the future. " As to a "Complete Reversal of a Century Old Pol- icy" alleged by the Times, in case even the surface of unreserved lands, as suggested by Secretary Wilbur, should be ceded to the States the writer of the Times editorial should read up on the history of the public lands. He is in error.
