Secretary of the Interior Ballinger requests that Acting Superintendent Ziebach submit a report on Sullys Hill National Park, including the number of visitors to the park, how many people have transported livestock through the park, and the number of animals so transported, the condition of the buildings and trails in the park, and an estimate of the amount of appropriations necessary for the improvement of the park.
