PETRIFIED FOREST NATIONAL PARK BILL Mr. John Muir, Grand View Hotel, Grandview, Arizona. Dear Mr. Muir: Further answering
your letter July 31st, written from Adamana: Am advised that the Petrified Forest National Park bill passed the House June
28th, but as Congress adjourned two days afterwards, no action was taken thereon in the Senate. I have no doubt that the
matter will be taken up again and strong efforts made to put it through. Yours truly, illegible 03757
