the Secretary of the Interior as to national parks.
An additional provision in the first sentence making it the duty
of the Secretary of the Interior as soon as practicable to make
such rules and regulations as he might deem necessary or proper for

A provision of the original section for the disposition of the
proceeds of leases for buildings for accommodation of visitors and
other revenues from the park has been omitted as superseded by
