Since the white man iirst came its bays and beaches have never been anything bat a playground, save for a short time ago when the world war was on and engineers and soldiers from Fort Casey laid out possible defenses on the Whidby side of the pass, and much ground was cleared of trees and shrubbery and placements made for artillery. In the middle of the pass is Ben Ure Island, named after a man who 'claimed it as a squatter when the reserve wa made.Military force, it is said, wms required to move him fromthe island, Bridge.ls, Proposed, 'A , recent recommendation of the war department is for the construc- tion of a bridge across the pass trong enough to carry mobile artil- lery. This bridge, it was suggested by the military engineers, iwoutd rest its center on this island, and. It ould' Stretch high above the ship :hmmel. This is also the route of ;he Roosevelt Highway from the Skagit across to the pass to connect yith the Olympic Highway system at Port Townsend. At present the connection is made y ferry a half mile eastward of the ross. Both approaches to the bridge 11 be well within the park. It was re on the east side of the pass where the state some years ago es- tablished a convict camp and erected n immense rock crushing plant for urnishing crushed rock for the roads f Western Waslfington. i Lease Was Sought. Some months ago an attempt was haade by private parties to secure the reservation by lease. The North- counties arose in wrath, had proposed lease withdrawn and for its transfer to the state or park purposes. After weeks of effort, the park committee was in- 'duced to ask for a deed, and House 9235 and Senate Bill 2748, iden- tical bills, introduced by Congress- Lindley H. Hadley and Senator Miles Poindexter, provide for such transfer. It is expected that the bills will go into comittee with the io. k. of Secretkry of War Weeks• Four roads lead into the proposed ;park, every point is accessible by ;water, and its bays and beaches are !the resort of thousands each sum- mer. It is said to be the only avail- able beach open to the public free lof charge between Seattle and Blaine.
