'J^trxiieh J§>i<xie& J^enaie*, WASHINGTON, D. C, January 20th, 1900. Dr. G. P. Ambler, Asheville, II. G. Dear Doctor: Your letter received. The changes which you suggest in the joint resolution which 1 introduced, a copy of which was published in the Asheville Gazette, or any other changes that you may desire to be made, can be made in Committee before it is reported to the Senate. 1 thoQght at one time that we would wait to get suggestions from everybody before introducing this resolution; but, after conferring with Senator Pritchard, we thought it was best to go ahead and introduce it and then make in Committee any changes your Committee might desire; and, as I have stated above, we can now do this. It seems to me that it would be well for your working committee to Confer with Senator Pritchard and myself as to a date when the Committee can give you a hearing, and when we arrange this hearing that then your Committee be ready to come and appear before the Senate Committee and present all of the arguments and facts at your command, why this matter should have favorable considerationand action. There is no session of the Senate to-day, so 1 have not had time to confer with Senator Pritcharei since receiving your letter; but 1 am satisfied that this suggestion will be approved by him, and it is ver^^ro*^^^ bable that he will write you the same thing. %fe^£i&#^ ' %L4jAA*4A%*,
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

This series of letters has to do with legislation proposed by the by the Appalachian National Park Association. On January 4, 1900, the association submitted a Memorial to Congress; on May 25, 1900, a bill passed authorizing funds to investigate the possibility of a national park; several states passed resolutions in support of the park; in January 1901, President McKinley expressed support of the project. Although the organization had success early on, their efforts met with resistance and the organization disbanded in 1905.
