In an analysis of Nebraskas state park program, which was presented to the legislative committee studying various facets of Oame Commission operations, Strain pointed out that by applying, minimum person-per-day expenditures to the knoVn annual nonresident traffic on highway 30, It was estimated that out-of-sta e.

travelers spent a mlmlmum of lOlfc million dollars a year of an average of 339,000 a day on this route alone. The analysis also points out some of the problem areas In the administration of public recreation. For example; over 50 per cent of the statee population resides In 15 percent of the states ares. Strain calls this area the "Zone of Primary Need, and says that while there ta an average of one acre of state-controlled recreation area for every 37 persons In the remaining 85 per cent of the state, there to only one acre for every 446 persons in the critical eastern portion. This condition, according to the land management chief, can be rectified and the states tourist potential further explored by- a planned program of acquisition and development backed by a sound, annually reliable, financing program.

Strain reputed that park attendance has increased fantastically since World War with no leveling off In sight, yet Park use. he said, ls one of the few forms of outdoor recreation In which the entire family can participate an equal without first developing a skill. In these days of increasing pressures, higher pay, shorter work weeks, end the growing problem of delinquency, places for wholesome family recreation are essential to a healthy society.
