Secretary Seaton
Sera ‘Significant
Progress’ in 1956
WASHINGTON, W—Secretary
Seaton said Monday “significant
progress” was made in the Inter
ior Department’s natural resourc
es programs during 1956.
He forecast “additional solid
accomplishments for the depart
ment in 1957.”
Seaton cited particularly, in a
year-end statement, two long
range conservation programs for
the national parks and for fish
and wildlife resources which he
said he believes will make “ma
jor advances during the next 12
■months.”
The parks program is known as
“Mission 66” and will be in its
second year in 1957. Its purpose
is to provide the nation with a
park system adequate to accom
modate the 80< million visitors an
ticipated annually by 1956.
The other is a new, greatly ex
panded effort to develop and
conserve the nation’s wildlife and
fishery resources. Seaton recently
resignated a special task force to
develop a blueprint for the new,
I broadened program.
' The Bureau of Land Manage
ment made a start on a long
range program for modernization
of public land records by award
ing contracts for replacement and
modernizatipn of those in Utah
and New Mexico.
' The Fish and Wildlife Service
during 1956 conducted the first
national economy survey of fish
1 ing and hunting, showing that 25
! million Americans spent nearly
! $3 billion in 1955 for those out
door recreations.
The Indian Bureau continued
its program to provide school fa
cilities for all Indian children. By
June, only about 10,000 Indian
and native children in the United
States and Alaska, or 7 percent
of the schoolage population, were
not enrolled in schools, compared
with some 20,000 three years be
fore.
Without eyes and living under
ground, a worm senses the fall of
night and wriggles to the sur
face.
