Is there a Member of this House who feels that his district has nothing to offer the traveling public of America in the way of scenic or historic attraction and would not benefit from the provisions of title III? The Economic aspects are a welcome "plus." but the reason I want to be identified with supporting this measure is the fresh opportunity it affords for enhancing the beauty of this Nation. After all of the manmade. material things in life are crumbled and forgotten. it is the enduring qualities of nature which linger in our memories. and so it is with men. those who take time out to preserve the beauty of the land have a way of enshrining themselves in the memory of their fellow men. t o better example of this could be found than in Edward Bok. who came to America many years ago as a little Dutch immigrant boy. He built in his adopted country a mighty publishing business and otherwise left his mark on the commercial pages of American history. But the works for which Edward Bok is best remembered are his activities in preserving natural beauty.
