C. 58 Broadwaj (Continued from Page Two) gests that if one of the more wide ly known national parks is your destination, you would be smart to make reservations well in advance for barring that, "you might be laced witn tne alternative o; sleep ing in your car." In most of the major national parks there are hotel, lodge, house keeping cabins, cafeterias, bus iransportation, saddle horse, and similar services, provided by con cessioners operating under con tract with the government, and under the supervision of the Na tional Park Service. Rates for accommodations com pare favorably with those charged at other resorts, ot in the vicinity; and this despite the fact that in some of the parks, such as Yel lowstone, Uiacier, and Lraier Lane, the concessioners receive returns on their investments only a few short months of the year. This year, National Park Service says, moton transportation, saddle horse, and lodging rates will be about the same as last year. The main Increase is in meals, which have increased in some of the parks from 10 to 15 percent. In addition to hotel, lodge and cabin accommodations, free pub lic campgrounds are operated by the National Park Service in most of the parks. Visitors may bring their own equipment and camp there. Each campground has fire place, table, and benches, on separate individual campsites. If, however, you are so "condi tioned" to steam heat that rough ing it does not appeal, there are hotel rooms as low as $5.50 a day, American plan, or as high as $14. The prices vary, of course, with the locution of the parks and the types of accommodations. FLOOD WATERS INUNDATE IDAHO INDUSTRIAL AREA c -is .
