Nord, Assistant Regional Forester at Ogden. Standing at 396,-00- 0 visit the winter sports was up 18.3 per cent over 1952. "With normal snowfall use would have been much greater," Mr. Nord said. Total visits to the 19 national forests of the Intermountam Region showed an increase of 430,-00- 0 over 1952. The 1953 figure wa3 4,954.000 visits to improved public recreation areas and for all other uses such as hunting, fishing, hiking and riding. We certainly expect and welcome an expanding enjoyment znd use by the public, of their national forests, said Mr. Nord. Camping and picnicking also showed substantial gams attributed to greater tourist travel and growing intermountain populations. It was reported that the Forest Service budget' nationwide allowed an expenditure of 3.7c per visit for each of the 33,000,-00- 0 people who visited the 152 national forests for recreation last year. The funds are spent for sanitation: maintenance of tables, stoves, water systems; and for campground cleanup and fire prevention. To help meet the growing expense of camping and recreation needs in local areas municipal, county and civic groups cooperate with the Forest Service. For the publics help with the ways and means" job of maintaining recreation facilities, Mr. Nord expressed the hearty appreciation of the Forest Service. He The splendid cooperation said, by local people has added greatly to the publics enjoyment of the national forest recreation resources." The report estimated the nam bers motoring through Inter mountain national forest- - areas in 1953, 5,314,000. This was in addition to those stopping at campgrounds and other areas. 1953 o, Limbcrlost' - THE SAIT JUJGT RECCED Thursday. Apr. 15, 1954 Pag his testimonial.

Impact of the decrease is twofold in the state's financial picture: (1) It is that much less revenue for the and under nourished general fund. (2) It may mean a higher state property tax for the uniform school fund The extra two cent tax was supposed to add $1 million annually to the fund and thus obviate about a mill of the levy. There was little comfort elsewhere, either, for the beleagured general fund in the March collection report.
