Scoyen, superintendent of Zion and Bryce Canyon national parks, presiding, President Ilobor J. Grant, gave an invocation in which he asked the divine blessing upon the undertaking. He praised the cooperation of the parks service and the states of Utah and Arizona, without whose help, he said, the task would have been im- HE most unusual Independence Day observance held in the United States occured when governors of seventeen states met within the famous Zion Mount Carmel Highway Tunnel in Southern Utah to participate in its formal dedication to public use. Although it is only 2(5 miles long, this highway is the greatest project of its kind ever undertaken by the U. S. National Park Service and Bureau of Public Ronds. Its cost was close to two million dollars, and it Incorporates two tunnels, one 6,000 feet long, and the other more than 400 feet long, In Its short length. Dedication ceremonies were held wllhiu the longest of the tunnels, whose oilier wall Is pierced with six galleries through which ventilation and sunlight are admitted. Gallery 1, the largest of them all, was the scene of the formal dedication. Within this gallery the stand from which various governors, National Park Service and Union Pacific officers, and other representatives of the U. S. government and the state of Utah made their address, was erected. .( K Marvelous accoustics prevail at this point in the tunnel, and there was ample room for .the two thousand spectators, all of whom could hear every word spoken by the speakers even when an ordinary conversational tone of voice was used. , Patriotic music was supplied for the occasion by sixty male members of the chorus of the St. George, Utah, temple. With the massive bulk of East Temple mountain rearing its head 3,200 feet and glaring in frames of red and white splendor above the tunnel gallery, the audience heard Mr. Albright, as master of ceremonies recall that the day was the sixty third birthday of Stephen T. Mather, his predecessor ns superintendent of the parks service, to whom he gave credit for inception Carmel highway, the ft Zion-Mou- possible. Many engineering difficulties were . encountered in building the road and tunnel through the mountain range, which is 10,000 feet high, involving sealing precipitous cliffs on ropes and ladders. So close was the calculation on the tunnel which Is 5,000 feet long and 22 by 15 feet in size, that they varied only by inches when the bores met from two directions. Declaring the work of the engineers had only to place the road where nature had Intended it should be built millions of years ago, Macdonald hailed it as the symbol of a bigger idea of the cooperation and faith that is taking possession of the people of the United States. Governor Dern, in the same view, said the people of Utah do not or want national parks need within their borders as playgrounds for local people alone, but are proud to share these natural marvels with people of other states. The audience included hundreds of people of southern Utah, who had assembled within the portal of the tunnel to join with the governors party in dedication of the road and observance of Independence day. They found the tunnel . portal and gallery gaily decked with flags and bunting and chairs placed for their comfort within a n ampithentre. Work on the highway has been in progress for the past three years, and its construction embodied some unusual and remarkable engineering feats.

Beginning near the Park Ranger station at the entrance to Zion National Park, the road ascends in a long series of gently rising switchbacks until it reaches the sheer face of one of the crimson cliffs of Zion National Park. Here the longer of the two tunnels begins, and penetrates this cliff for a distance of more than a mile. The road finally emerges at the top of the plateau from which Zion Canyon . has been etched eons of time by one small river. It accomplishes its purpose of shortening the distances between the three most colorful of all of national parks in the twenty-tw- o the United States. Gov. Dern Dedicates Zion-Mou- Carmel Highway nt ' ' Governor Dern, in his address at the dedication ceremonies, stressed some of the beauties of Utah scenery : It is pecularly appropriate that this great highway should be dedicated to the use of the people of the United States on our countrys birthday. It is also fitting that this ceremony should be held in the presence of the governors of so many of Utahs sister states. Their presence here Is emblematical of the Interest of all the states in this project . It is as if the people of the whole nation were here this morning to see this marvelous undertaking placed at their service. There may be differences of opinion among the western states in regard to the national policy of reserving their land and minerals from private entry, but there is no difference of opinion among them in regard to the national parks. These areas of outstanding beauty are chiefly valuable for their recreational uses. We do not need them nor want them as playgrounds for our own people alone. We are happy that they have been set aside for the enjoyment of all who may be at- tracted by their charm. They are the show places of our nation, in which every American holds a share of ownership. While Zion National park and Bryce canyon happen to situated within the boundaries of the state of Utah, yet we are, proud to share our ownership of these natural marvels with all the rest of cur fellow Americans, and we say ta them: Come out and inspect your property. You will be proud of it, and your pride of ownership will make you a better, more patriotic American in the best he sense. Zion National park has sometimes been referred to as Yosemite done in oil.
