After being introduced by Don Elias, president of the AsheviUe Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Drury replied to Governor Broughton's statement that more road were needed into the Park, by adding: I appreciate the open mindedness of your progressive governor. As far as I am concerned, the Park ervice will approach the subject of road building with an open mind". Director Drury pointed out that the defense program came first, but went on to say that projects were being "worked up and put on t,he shelf until the defense work was over, and then these projects would become a reality and men now absorbed in defense would be given jobs. Road building will be an important item at such a time, he concluded. The defense work has slowed us down, but in one way that is good, because sometimes we spend money top rapidly." Mr. Drury said it was wonder ful to meet with such groups and learn of the trends of thought, and to get local slants on such matters. The park director was emphat in his remarks that "some sec tions of the Park should not be penetrated by roads. We should maintain some wilderness areas, to which man may retreat, and where wildlife may find refuge." "I have come to think of the reat Smoky Mountains National Park in that class of truly great things in America. I have made several trips into the park, yet this the first from this side, and on one of those trips, I was with the late Arno B. Cramerer, who for 7 years served as director of the Park Service. It was with him that I stood on top of Mt. LeConte and looked for miles at the color ful trees in their fall colorings. inee that time, I always felt very much at home in the Park area." The Park official was highly complimentary of the barbecue, which was- served, stating; "I have never tasted such delicious barbe cue, even in sunny Califoria." Davenport, J.
